Booked Dhurandhar 4:45 show today. Told my parents beforehand and they were completely okay with it.

Cut to this morning, suddenly I’m not allowed to go because “it’ll be very late by the time the movie finishes.”

I was like… I literally told you before booking and you had no problem then??

Reason? They watched some stupid movie called Lockdown last night which apparently showed how dangerous the world is, and now everything is unsafe.

The theatre is literally 5 minutes away from my house. Walking takes 10 minutes.

And the best part is they’re now sending my cousin brother who was visiting us and who will be studying 12th grade this year to the movie I booked.

Meanwhile, I have a 6 PM curfew. If I want to stay out even a little longer for work, I have to call and explain in full detail about my urgency.

I can understand the fact that they care for me but sometimes, it is suffocating. I don't know. Just wanna rant and for context, I’m in my early twenties 🤡

An Amazon delivery guy asked me for tips today.

Where does it end at this point? First restaurants, then autos, and now Amazon?!

I’ve never faced a situation like this in Bangalore for Amazon or Autos.

I went to InStore, Velachery today for some shopping and had to hand over my car keys for valet parking. For context, it’s a new car that I recently bought with hard-earned money.

After a while, I happened to glance outside through the main entrance and noticed the valet reversing my car and then slowly moving it forward. Something about it didn’t feel right, so I stepped outside after a minute to check.

To my horror, found the valet inside the car, with the engine running, casually playing around with the controls and showing off the dashboard to his friend. I immediately shouted at him to get out of the car. Wanted to give him a proper earful, but couldn’t because of the language barrier..

I really don’t understand this.

I went to watch a movie recently and there was a couple sitting behind me who kept talking almost the entire time. Not even whispering full conversations, like they were at home. They were literally decoding scenes out loud.

I get it, sometimes people comment here and there, that’s normal. But this was nonstop for almost 3 hours and it completely took me out of the movie.

And this isn’t a one-time thing. I’ve had kids behind me kicking the seat repeatedly, babies crying loudly during key scenes, and the worst part is the parents don’t even try to stop them or calm them down. it just takes you out of the movie completely.

Like if you want to talk constantly or can’t sit through a movie quietly, why not just watch it at home?

I’m not trying to sound rude, I’m just genuinely curious do people not realise they’re disturbing others, or do they just not care?

Have you guys experienced this? And what do you usually do in that situation without creating a scene?

does any branch allows customers to watch the service get done and get the bike back in a few hours? I go to kings bajaj porur and they don't let the customers stay and now they're asking to pick the bike up the next day even though it's just a normal service

I ordered some essentials from Flipkart and the delivery date was today (03/04/2026)

Morning I got the OTP msg from Ekart and few mins later I got a call from Ekart delivery guy but he just ended the call with one ring so I couldn't pick it up

Then I called the number myself but they rejected it and my delivery was rescheduled citing that I have rescheduled the order (but I didn't)

Then I called the customer service ( how did I reach them is a rant on itself) and they also said the same thing that I rescheduled it

After I explained in detail they finally accepted that the delivery agent has caused the issue but still my order will take another 24hours to arrive

Fuck Flipkart I should have stayed with Amazon

Just crawled past the Airport Flyover in heavy traffic. Saw at least 4 to 5 buses with broken windows and glass all over the road. Looked like a major wreck. Anyone have eyes on the scene or know what caused it?

I usually have a little bit of fruits on a daily basis, and I've been seeing that Pomegranate is unbelievably costly in the OMR region fruit shops. 340rs per kg😭 I can cook 3 meals at home for that money.

Sometimes I've seen it go down to 240 ish, but not less than that. At times like these I feel I should've appreciated the two pomo plants we had back home in my school days.

Does anyone have any insights why this is fruit so damn costly all the time? How much is it in other areas in Chennai?

I was driving on TTK road today and almost every intersection had at least one policeman there.

Is this normal? why are they there

Our cylinder got empty and we dont have cylinder to cook, We got this cylinder from flat owner, and used to get it refill from agent. But right now that agent don't have any cylinder.

We tried reaching different agency for new connection and right now they have paused giving new connection.

Any way or someone who can refill/ provide cylinder?

Hi all, they seem to have a 6 month French immersion programme which seems interesting. But I have noticed some red flags like how they have a perfect 5.0 rating, in google maps their office seems like some kind of hardware store? The language used in their website seems a bit hype and immature. I dont know if this institute is legitimate or not. I am not from India so I lack the nuance to tell for sure if its uncredible. I hope someone has some knowledge about this, thank you
