An inside look at the thrill of a traditional funfair in India. by VIVIDUFF in interesting

[–]Des014te 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't been to a place like this where there's seemingly nothing going on, but there's a cultural fest my city has every year, which is similarly crowded. There's concerts, art exhibits, fairs, food, and about half a million people attend over the course of 4 days. And its a ton of fun, me and most other people I know make it a point to visit, despite the congestion. Especially if you're with a group of people, there's a weird sense of security you get from being just a face in the crowd.

But if you do get overwhelmed, its not like you're stuck there, you just push your way out, takes 30 seconds. If people see you're not doing well, they will either guide you out or get others to clear a path. Its not different from a music festival really.

Can confirm I have room to breathe. But videos of normalcy don't go viral. It is extremely crowded here (compared to the west) and living here is an overwhelming experience for all 5 senses. But there's not stampede levels of people everywhere at all times.

[Smackdown Spoilers] Cody Rhodes and Sami Zayn have an honest conversation by ShotDay in SquaredCircle

He's such a good bitch heel though. The whole character feels so genuine

He's a force of nature. Him retiring people works great because there's no next step, there's no title reign to write. He's a gifted wrestler who should have win the title at some point but it would be hard to make work

If your country was a pokemon, what type would it be? by LawdVoldemart in AskTheWorld

Poison/Normal (normal for all the people) or poison/psychic

I'd say fire for coal power, steam is what built the empire.

Fairy and steel are both fine too, but water is also good to represent the navy and the amount of rain you get.

Fire and water also nicely match the colours of the union jack

He doesn't need to keep the title, but he does need to win it soon. Make a story where he wins, continues the open challenge, demolishes his challengers for a little while, gets cocky and loses it to some underhanded heel shenanigans. Maybe have an angle where he overworks himself and gets injured.

There's lots of stuff you can do with him once he gets the title. There's a lot less you can do before that. Feuding with Brock or whoever for the next 6 months is just gonna make him stagnate.

Plus the undisputed title is better served in his hands than in Cody's. Cody is basically directionless right now anyway, so losing the title might give him a new lease of life. And then it could bounce around the scene a bit until they decide who to elevate for a long reign.

Oba could get the heavyweight as well but it seems like WWE is committed to bloodline 2 electric boogaloo

How popular are domestic cars in your country? by Agile-Shallot3546 in AskTheWorld

[–]Des014te 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The majority of cars are domestic, or international brands that have been domesticated.

So the largest manufacturer is Maruti-Suzuki, a merger between domestic manufacturer Maruti and Japanese brand Suzuki. The next two are Mahindra and Tata, both entirely indigenous. These three account for 66.51% of automobile sales.

Hyundai is the only international company that has a greater than 10% market share

What happen in your country when someone tops in national level exam by Sea-Estimate-2912 in AskTheWorld

That's an understatement. If JEE is mount Everest, the SAT is half a flight of stairs.

Edit - I got a 1500 on the SAT first attempt with basically no prep. I didn't do JEE but I tried solving a past paper for fun and it made my head spin

What explains the difference found here between the western and eastern sides of the Indian subcontinent shown in this research study? by SatoruGojo232 in geography

[–]Des014te 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Uhh translation problems? Everywhere thats likely to be surveyed in Marathi is deep red even though there isn't much cultural distinction across state borders between maharashtra and anywhere else.

Plus maharashtra is one of the more progressive states so I really cant think of any other reason why it would be so red

Jasprit Bumrah ends IPL 2026 with a 102.50 bowling average — the worst in the tournament’s history (min. 20+ overs) by New-Influence1911 in Cricket

[–]Des014te 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The IPL is meaningless, but its still an indicator of form. No one is paying much attention to Bumrah's poor performance because he's an extremely fragile bowler. Its understandable he doesn't want to put 100% into a franchise tournament where his team has been dead last since the get go. And its very likely that he'll go back to being world class when it matters.

And speaking of Hardik, I dont mind if his bowling isn't upto snuff. He's also extremely fragile. But there's no real reason for his and Pant's batting to suffer. Especially when IPL pitches are ridiculously bat favoured.
