B’s friend M is a top-notch academics guy. Class first; world debating champion; no position is difficult for him to defend blah, blah, blah. And he wants to go to Oxford or Cambridge, with scholarship. Naturally. With this in the background, read on.
M: Hey B! What do you think about xyz? Can I approach her for a date?
B: Why this sudden interest in xyz, M?
M: No la! All these stupid scholarship boards not only look at IQ, they want to see your EQ as well! And I want to shore it up, you see!
B: Oh ok. She is fine and you can be a socialist with xyz. (Lingo for being less-volatile and steady)
M: (suddenly remembering something) Hey! Is she applying for Oxbridge?
B: (thinks for a nano-second) No. Why?
M: Aiyah! That is not good. She should be Oxbridge material, man!
B: Look here. What is important? EQ or Eugenics? If you want your love life to be driven by Eugenics then you need to forget not only xyz but a to w as well!!
M: (in a resigned tone) OK la! For now EQ wins….
PS: Boys will be boys. M apparently is so-smitten by xyz that he is sure of his EQ touching 150+ :-)
