Sir , wid all due respect .. I dnt think it was meant to be dis serious ..
Madam with due respect to you...I thought necessary to clear the confusion, so had to give you the complete meaning of the two words. Kindly don't take it otherwise and please take its constructive meaning.

Sathish ji & Ankita ji..even m confused nowlaugh.. what i have understood that Ankita ji was telling about her own memory to be "terrible" & not mine..But I think you have understood as she is telling my memory as 'terrible' & hence you were suggesting it to be "teriffic"??? If it is so, then this is the root cause of confusion between you guyslaugh...Or if not then both of you have to clear my confusion nowlaugh...
