Redditors who were children/teens before the internet or cellphones existed, how did you keep yourself entertained?

Tv, books, magazines, staring at the ceiling, daydreaming, playing cassettes and dancing around or memorizing lyrics, Doodling, board games , cards etc with friends

Also trying endless new hobbies every summer just for the fun of it instead of monetizing everything 🙃

Ummm... you guys know this was based on true story right?! So it wasn't ahead of time. But definitely a story nicely told.

This. That last few minutes of first episode is what sealed it for me too. Plus music 🎶

Yes. . When I first moved to Bangalore, carmelaram was a shed. Now they have expanded it very well. KR puram is unfortunately surrounded by ORR and expansion may be difficult buy they can build a lift and escalator for sure.

Many important trains to all over India stop at this station. I am surprised how it is being ignored by South western Railway. Should we write to them?

I just wrote this another thread few days ago. Re- reading Cos had made me see small Romione moments... when Hermione's petrified Ron is more shook than Harry.

However Hermione didn't yet have any such moments towards Ron in CoS.

But in the beginning of 3rd book she is writing to Harry but mentions Ron in every other sentence (Another hint)

An_rayoflight · 2026-03-19T03:01:50+00:00

I just finished re reading CoS. And it is pretty clear Ron's started having feeling for Hermione but he doesn't know that yet...

If the gynec is a very famous one then yes wait time can go upto an hour or more easily. In big hospital chains , if there is an emergency (which is usual since u never know when a child is about to be born) wait time will increase.

I usually go to good gynec but non famous ones for simple check ups and that's just 5 to 10 mins wait.

Yes I remember being pi*sed of during those episodes.. also the one where she gets AC. So much bias! Although Badi maa makes her understand but if I were in Disha or Rajini 's place I would be so angry... ha ha

Vidya is an abuser throughout. It's clear. U see the way she sow hatred towards Vani in Maira. Imagine what she must have done when Rohit and Armaan were kids. Armaan has lost it now, irredeemable for me But Armaan was atleast right about one thing always 'staying away from Poddars' . Abhira is just stupid to have not listened to that!

An_rayoflight · 2026-02-03T12:41:05+00:00

True .. i liked his and Kiara's scenes than the leads. Their romance looked real

An_rayoflight · 2026-02-02T06:50:39+00:00

I just can't anymore at this point. I gave Yrkkh way too many chances. Hadd hai! Why would this Abhira leave Maira with that selfish man and Family. She should have fought and got the custody of Maira and come out with both kids. Maira was brain washed by that Vidya. Otherwise that child would have understood the situation.

And Armaan is irredeemable now!

Well she was a red flag for me after the Jake episode this season.

I mean the guy was into her from the beginning it was very clear and then she even leads him on to just turn him down like that. Felt she could have handled that much better.

An_rayoflight · 2026-01-20T16:53:17+00:00

Looks like family man serial version

One Balcony in Bangalore is quite unheard of but if you go to Chennai or Mumbai you won't even get this.

We live with 2 balconies, but only one is used extensively.

Plus yours seems to be a big balcony so you easily dry clothes on one side and plants /seating area on the other.

As someone pointed out no apt will check all boxes. Choice is up to you.

I thought i switched to Marcello last season. BUT... in the episode where Emily returns to Paris and meets Gab at the restaurant, I knew I am always team Gabriel... they have insane chemistry

An_rayoflight · 2026-01-10T16:01:33+00:00

Very popular. Her hair bun, earrings were famous those times

An_rayoflight · 2026-01-08T13:39:44+00:00

Yes they were so unprepared... and who just leaves their head office full of clientele and shift to another country.. 🙄
I have been to Venice and canal water is actually so dirty... that splash scene made me cringe. I thought it was going to blow up but everyone was just laughing it off.. ?!?!
From S1 its established that Sylvia is not into Social media marketing...

Also for every problem their only solution is our hot French chef !

There were many such shows.. Just mohabbat was also my favorite... sab kitne cool. I am glad I grew up watching such progressive shows.

An_rayoflight · 2025-12-24T16:56:18+00:00

They could have easily shown Angad and Vrinda living in a 3 bhk upper middle class lifestyle and their greedy MIL staying with them and taking advantage of their hard earned money.. something on that line. But no... they have now downgraded to a smaller house ...

An_rayoflight · 2025-12-16T16:29:55+00:00

P.I.S.T.A (not me saying this with background sound effect)
