My roommate ranks Karela above Aloo AND Bhindi. I need the internet to tell him he is wrong.
My roommate has three opinions and all three are crimes:
Aloo is "nothing special" and on the same level as Karela.
Bhai. Aloo paratha exists. That alone ends the argument. Aloo paratha is not "just there" — it is a full meal in one flatbread, it is dhaba culture, it is every good morning you've ever had. Aloo does not need to justify itself to Karela or anyone.Aloo Paratha "just exists." Nothing special about it.
He said this. Out loud. In my house. The audacity.Bhindi is BELOW Karela in his ranking.
This is where I stopped being calm. Bhindi is delicious. Bhindi fry, achari bhindi, stuffed bhindi — all elite. Karela is bitter by design. You eat it because your parents told you it's healthy. Nobody has ever craved Karela. Bhindi below Karela is not an opinion, it is a cry for help.
How is this person living with me. How do I proceed.
