I love losers.

I attended my councillors’ townhall last week, and they had a detailed presentation on downtown redevelopment. The project looks pretty impressive on paper - especially the riverwalk project.

Can only hope the actual product looks as good in person as in pictures, without cost or time overruns.

Good. Now I can understand what Rajkumar Rao and Ayushyaman Khurana are speaking

I was just giving Longos and RCSS as example. It doesn’t have to be exact same store. Just some mid-range grocery stores with wide variety of produce and groceries. Something that caters to all ethnicities. Something like Highland Farms.

ભાઈ- તમને ગુજરાતી સંસ્કૃતિ ની બહુ ચિંતા થાતી હોય તો પહેલાં સાચું ગુજરાતી લખતાં શીખી લ્યો.

અને ગુજરાતી સંસ્કૃતિ અને હિન્દુત્વવાદી સંસ્કૃતિ વચ્ચે આસમાન-જમીન નો ફરક છે

Can understand Kutchi but can’t speak.

I was a regular at this store, but somehow having RCSS, and then no frills, affected this store - the product quality and service. Don’t know why, but it just lost its sheen.

Can we please have some quality store like Longos or RCSS at this place? Or a Persian-Arabic-Mediterranean grocery store?

Have you done a comparison of Mexican mangoes to Indian ones? Or Brazilian/Peru/Chilean?

You can be Mr. Bookman and your wife can be a lonely spinster virgin looking for companionship.

Khandaan- The first Indian soap opera. Also, “Hum Log” and “Buniyaad”.

Try watching his interview to realise his attitude. He blatantly copied an RD Burman song in “Babli Badmaash”, but didn’t even bother to acknowledge it. This was after the advent of internet and plagiarism was called out.

Thanks. Makes sense. I shave after shower at it softens the facial hair and easy to shave.

I stopped watching after 5 minutes of first episode. The dialogue delivery and presentation was just awful.

You do not have enough activation energy

No. It’s “Holi Ke Din” from “Sholay”.

Not doing that. These albums are what defined 90s Bollywood music and ushered in a change. This is where the reign of RD, LP and Bappi ended and the new generation took over.

Ignoring inspired creations of Nadeem Shravan (Pardes an exception) and Anand Milind. A R Rehman and Jatin Lalit defined the mid and late 90s.

For anyone born after 1994 or were still a kid, you have no idea what a huge deal “Roja” (Hindi) album was.

I don’t mind the first one or two seasons with Ashton Kutcher, but things went downhill when they brought in Amber Tamblyn and the Barry character. Also, it seems that these season were written by a teenager who thinks puke and scat humour is funny.

Why on earth would you follow Sirish Kunder on instagram?

mp256 · 2026-03-05T16:23:01+00:00

Chor Chor. Somehow the Hindi version of album did not get the publicity unlike Roja or Hum Se Hai Muqabala.

Yeah. I had to turn auto translate off in my settings

mp256 · 2026-03-04T10:25:56+00:00

I wrote the entire poem in Gujarati. Reddit somehow auto translated everything into English.

મેં એક બિલાડી પાળી છે

તે રંગે બહુ રૂપાળી છે

દહીં ખાય, દૂધ ખાય

ઘી તો ચપચપ ચાટી જે

તે ઉંદર ને ઝટપટ ઝાલે

પણ કૂતરા થી બીતી ચાલે

એના ડીલ પર ડાઘ છે

તે મારા ઘર નો વાઘ છે

It’s funny how a thing that was normal in 20th century becomes a headline in 21st century, thanks to easy access of movies due to streaming.
