... you are secretly proud of Pranab Mukherjee.
... you feel a mild surge of anger whenever people mention Greg Chappell and John Buchanan.
... you think the Left Front is corrupt. Though not Buddha-babu.
... you feel that Mamata Banerjee should not become CM, come what may.
... you attribute people's successes to their Bong connections. And rue the chance to claim Ratan Tata into the fold.
... your ranking of the top Engineering colleges is like this: Presidency College, IIT Kharagpur, BE College, Jadavpur University...
What did you say? Presidency does not have Engineering? My friend, it is still the best.
... you always speak in Bengali even when you are in neighbouring states like Jharkhand and Orissa. Or for that matter, C R Park.
... you can catch a cold in summer.
Only Bengali language has a term called sardi-garmi.
... you feel sorry for Tamils since they have to eat idli-dosa every day.
... you are convinced you are more intelligent than your boss.
... irrespective of where you stay, you have bought (or are planning to buy) a flat in Rajarhat.
... you have a Rabindra Rachanaboli, which you have hardly read.
... you have a Feluda Shomogro, which you have read cover-to-cover. And do so every month!
... you pity people who have never heard of Jacques Derrida.
Even you don't know what the guy does. But nobody will dare ask you that.
... you claim that Beef Kabab outside Statesman House is best dish you have ever tasted.
... you think Ritwik Ghatak is a better film-maker than Satyajit Ray. And Snehasish a better batsman than Sourav!
