I have always preferred readymade garments (RMGs) to made-to-measure ones. However, not all readymade items are my cup of tea.
After being a major exporter of RMGs, India is now fast emerging as a leading domestic player in the readymade sector of forwarding good morning messages with oxymoronic lazy man’s efficiency. For RMGMs, which, apart from being an abbreviation for readymade good mornings, doubles as an euphemism for forwarded good morning messages on an extensive scale. Though this represents a “sunrise” industry in more ways than one, I have little doubt that a reality audit would serve to showcase empirical levels of its popularity.
Despite my antipathy to the forwarded greetings culture, I find myself strangely drawn to the subject that has taken the world of laid-back minds by storm. The phenomenon usurps precious post-sunrise mobile moments, via primarily the WhatsApp route, thanks to relatives, friends, acquaintances and associates who sniff a virtue in forwarding forwarded greetings. Unlike RMGs that sport size tags, the RMGMs are a one-size-fits-all proposition.
