Whats in a name?

Perhaps its my twisted sense of humor that makes me see these things.

Walking in Jayanagar I saw a board for the “Texas Institute of Technology”. See the picture below.

The names okay (though I really have to question the Texas in Jayanagar part), but look at the short form (below)…. Is anyone thinking?
.. and look at the byline…..

    Thank God, they didn’t bother to name it “Texas Institute of Technology and Systems” with a caption: “If you’re not studying here you’re missing both”. (I meant both – systems and technology. Didn’t you too?)

    LOL – that’s a good one. I can just imagine the conversation:

    First guy: Hey, just wanted to let you know – got into IIT.
    Second guy: oh really, congrats! I just got an acceptance letter from TIT. Which IIT?
    First guy: IIT Chennai
    Second guy; nice, re. I got into the Jayanagar TIT.

    Am sure it sounds even better in Kannada. :)
