The term "AP Syndrome"was coined by one of my dear friends from college. It stands for Anil Prabhu Syndrome. To explain this term in simple & easy to understand language, it stands for "Rudeness".
Basically I am a very humorous guy- you could say a Jolly Good Fella. However while cracking jokes on others I sometimes get carried away and start cracking some mean jokes. The poor person on whose expense the jokes are cracked has no other option but to laugh at them otherwise they risk being called a "Spoil Sport".
Sometimes this rudeness gets triggered as a defence mechanism. A Way to protect my Ego. At that point of time, jovial humour goes out of the window to be replaced by scathing remarks. According to the friend who coined the term, I have lost hundreds of potential friends due to this.....
I think I developed this syndrome because no one censured me when I was very young. Being a Saint, when I was a Kid, everyone ignored my "small" misgivings.
Now the world does not know what it can do with this L'Enfant Terrible ....

Awareness is the first step towards improvement - continue to work on the AP syndrome. It did not appear overnight, so it will not go away immediately either.
