Hi all,

Do you know that

'Bangalored' is a verb which recently got added in the dictionary.

Defination : A person is said to be bangalored if he lost his job because the work got outsourced to Bangalore or any other city in India.

'He got bangalored last week' is an example of its usage.

Lots of people in US got bangalored that it became an issue during the US Presidential election. That's exactly when this word was coined.

One such similar verb is 'shanghaied' which means kidnapped.

Great that Bangalore has a verb in its name only that it has a negative meaning.

Dear Promod,

others r not definitions, they were just a few random things about banglore which came to my mind, and I put them down.

PS...What I said in GF JOKES.. was in lighter vein..hope you get it.
