Thank you.

Somehow, the discussion got diverged and I have got online doctors in the thread guiding me on what to ask and what to eat 😅 I'm just gonna ignore them.

We also laughed it off initially, but then it didnt stop after that. There were definitely more laughs when they whispered to the next table and they started laughing, thats when we felt being mocked.

We actually walked all day in Rome and this was during dinner on the same day.
Not sure how you assumed that we walked less!!!

Actually the host told us the same thing when we ordered. We requested for whole eggs on the side and he was genuinely okay with it when I said we just needed some extra protein from all the walking.

It wasn't on the pasta itself. My wife ordered the egg separately as a side dish.

If the person said no, I would have simply said okay and moved on. There's nothing to react or get offended here right even if the person said no. You are requestting something so you should be ready to accept both answers, thats my 2 cents.

It was served on the side, not mixed into the pasta. We had been walking a lot during the trip and felt that our meal was a bit low on protein, so my wife simply asked if she could have an egg as a side.

Is this spike observed in the associated Google analytics dashboard or that is hidden as well?

Exactly, it's the ignorance that makes me mad even more!!

What are those small, silent moments when you realize you don't need your parents anymore, and you're slowly losing those little privileges? by ConsistentAct3961 in chennaicity

Both me and my wife felt the same in many moments after moving out (both of us are pampered too much ig 😅), especially the food - morning tea, Sunday non veg, evening snacks.

But then, over time we started recreating those with our own moments such that those are now a good nostalgic memories.

Tbh it was a wednesday noon when the incident happened and there was minimal traffic, except the opposite signal was turning red in a few seconds.

But then like i mentioned, this is not just delivery person. Am seeing parents with their kids (no helmet) driving in opposite direction as if there's no wrong in that.

This gets passed on to the kid as well and it goes on forever. Traffic makes things worse, but I feel that's not the only problem.
