  • Covidiot + Indiot = Covindiot

    Many of you must have received this. A wordplay on Covid and Idiot.

    Let me just add another word to your vocab:

    Indiot noun

    ind·i·ot

    1. A stupid person of Indian origin who does things only idiot Indians would do.
      Don’t burst crackers in your hand, you indiot!
    2. A stupid Indian person who doesn’t follow rules, meant for their own safety.
      ‘Helmets are not meant for elbows! Don’t be an indiot you fool…’

    Here’s one more word for you:

    Covindiot noun

    co·vind·i·ot

    1. A super idiotic Indian person who has no regard for his or her own safety in times of Covid-19
      ‘What kind of covindiot are you? Don’t you understand social distancing? What were you doing playing kabbaddi with strangers on the main road on the day of Janta Curfew?’

    I am not going to share any scientific gyaan but just few tweets in order to make my point.

    The full thread above basically.

    While I was super pumped to stand in the balcony, clap for our doctors, health workers and essential services personnel. I felt a sense of togetherness genuinely after 2011 World Cup Victory. But all my sense of gratitude turned into anger against the Covindiots.

    The problem with Indians is that only 1% of us are such fools. But 1% of 1.3 Billion is 13000000 or more.

    We cannot even facepalm now because there’s a chance of infection.
