You thought only what you wear, what you read, how you behave gives away what kind of a person you are? You are wrong. There is one other thing, far more intimate, that tells people what kind of a person you are. Your Internet browser history! It stores all the information regarding the pages you’ve visited over a fixed period of time, which is very telling. Here are some of the embarrassing things we are (almost) sure to find in your Internet browser history....

List of people you’ve stalked: Yes, whose Facebook pages you’ve been visiting over the last month will show up as well as all the random people you stalk on the Net — which you will never accept in front of others.

Fake accounts: You know, that social networking site you opened a fake account on just to send nasty things to your ex. Yeah.

Porn: Everyone, be it boy or girl, has porn in their browser history, even if they deny it. Yes, other people can see what kind of porn (read: Sunny Leone or Jenna Jameson) you watch and er, fap, to.

Honey Singh videos: Some people claim to listen only to Pink Floyd and Porcupine Tree but there is a 60 per cent chance you’ll find Honey Singh videos in their browser history. Most of us listen to Honey Singh, even if it is in the dead of the night. He wouldn’t be this popular otherwise.

“How to...”: You can find the most embarrassing things from ‘how to kiss’ and ‘how to have sex’ to things which cannot be printed here. The Internet browser history has all your dirty secrets saved!

Dating websites: You might not be able to visit their dating site profiles but it gives you the arsenal you need to tease the person mercilessly the next day.

Meanings and spellings of words: Arguments on Facebook are very common these days and you do not want to make a spelling error in the middle of it, while your whole friend list is watching. Doesn’t matter how basic the word is, most of us prefer to check the spelling/meaning online before commenting. And sometimes getting caught checking the spelling of ‘embarrassing’ is, well, exactly that!

Name of your celebrity crush followed with ‘hot’: Yep. ‘Katrina, hot’, ‘Ryan Gosling, hot’ are all over your browser history thanks to all those times you wanted to see your favourite stars in skimpy clothes or shirtless. It is okay, no one’s judging you. Yet.

Footnote: There is a reason why you have the “clear all browsing data” option! Take out a couple of minutes from your busy schedule once a week and clear your browser history or if possible, use the incognito window....

You’re welcome!

are you dating gone girl? take this quiz to find out

At first they appear normal but behind that angelic smile lurks a psychotic personality. If your answer is ‘yes’ to most questions below then... RUN!

Does she look fresh and done-up the next morning? It’s probably because she secretly snuck out and re-did her make-up.

Are you her project? Does she ask you everything you have eaten and then scream “but what about two almonds and green tea with honey, and a squeeze of lemon”? Has she started changing your wardrobe and hairstyle yet?

Has she ever asked you, “So who’s this girl you are following on Instagram?” Do you accidentally bump into her way too many times? Do you smell insecurity and is she like Sherlock Holmes treating everyone like a suspect until the case is solved?

Have you been a victim of her PDA — Public Display of Anger?

Everytime you start missing your buddies, does she say, “Let’s spend some alone time”, when all you can remember is being alone with her all the time.

Have you tried telling her a sad story and she replied, “Aww so sad, I forgot to carry my favourite lipstick today and my BFF has bought the same bag as I”. Self-obsessed, maybe?

Is everything you say a lie? “You’re beautiful”. Liar. “I never fell in love before you”. Liar. “I missed you”. Liar. “I don’t even know who this girl is and why she sent me a friend request”. Liar. “I ate an apple and half a banana”. Liar.

Does she always blame you for everything? You both fight because of you, there’s a strike in the city because of you, her mother is yelling at her because of you. Even her new red stilettos broke because of you, you jerk.lDoes she cry till your head aches? She cried because you didn’t call her back. She cried because you played FIFA with your buds. And she cried the most because you had a beer.
