Snipe List
“I wish (s)he would just be dead”
This is one of the most common lines you’d hear after 2 friends had a fight. But rarely do you meet people for whom this feeling lingers. In-fact, you don’t even need to meet that person. It can be someone who indirectly made your life, a living hell(Some crappy daily soap director for instance)
The other day, Arun bhaiya was talking about a movie called “Bucket list” (the movie from which Dasvidaniya is inspired, in its true sense. Nothing was copied and the movie was perfectly Indianized) after watching Dasvidaniya. In the movie, the lead is about to die in some days and makes a check list of things to do before he dies. So like any other Indian, we started discussing our bucket lists and slowly it turned out that almost all of us wanted to kill one/more people before we died. Bucket list got a new baby called “Snipe list”. As the name suggests, given a sniper and a free pass, who are the people you would shoot before you die.
I tried imagining the whole scene in slow-mo. Black bullet proof vest, black gloves, commando cargos and a M107. Setting the baby up on a terrace, looking through the scope and catching the unsuspecting target just as they had pounced on me time and again when I was least expecting any upset. Watching their last moves> closing my eyes> thinking of all those times…> Thinking “you messed with the wrong guy, and its too late to apologize”>Loading> Closing an eye to take a proper aim> sweat running down> index finger on the trigger> having a rush of adrenaline> feeling dopamine rise in my brain giving the pleasure of a lifetime. Thinking “This is it, the moment where I get to take it all back. Hadn’t you thought you’d get away with another stupid guy with the power that this system resided in you? I can feel the same power in me now. The power to destroy you as you had… I can kill you @$$#()!3″
And then simply unloading and walking away…..
Do you really need to kill the person after having felt that power? To me, thats the difference between that person and me…
