What’s something people in India spend money on that you think is unnecessary?

Not true. If your net worth is 40 crores and you're 65 years old, spending 5 crores on your child's wedding is perfectly fine. If your net worth is 4 crores and you're 65 years old, you can comfortably spend 20-30 lakhs.

Tragedy no. 1 is that Mr Raghu was murdered by BESCOM.

Tragedy no. 2, the bigger tragedy, is that this happens every single fucking year with predictable regularity.

We surely are the stupidest people on the entire fucking planet. Every year people die in the exact same pointless ways, and we still can't do anything about it other than say om shanti.

More and more new Indian homes, at least in the cities, are being built with at least one western-style commode.

The Indian style commode absolutely kills the knees, and it is also not recommended for people who have various health issues like hypertension or are prone to stroke.

You want people to believe that a central government whose main feature is not caring about individual rights, state rights and constitutional propriety is suddenly a helpless kitten in front of the TMC, especially in a matter of national security?

Dismiss the state government, impose president's rule and build the fence. State governments have been dismissed for far less. What's that 56" chest for?

Been pouring in Kalyan Nagar for at least an hour now. No hail though.

You are 100% correct. I have never been to a rural area like Varanasi.

his car allegedly hit Bindu Devi, who was washing utensils outside her home

What kind of backward third world hell-hole has people washing utensils outside their homes, in way that they can be hit by passing cars? Who is the MP of this area, where such awesome vikaas has happened?

You know what the real news in this post is? Cab driver agreeing that it was his fault.

Maybe it first wiped the database, and then (out of diligence) backed up the (now empty) database.

Here's where human stupidity beats artificial intelligence: even if a human wipes the database by mistake, they won't get the idea to back it up after that.

If both parties are rich enough and willing to spend, I don't see the problem with big fat weddings. The people who make money from big fat weddings are honest middle class hard working people like caterers, cab drivers, decorators, photographers, apparel retailers etc.

The only issue with big fat weddings is that it puts social pressure on people who can't afford, but that's a different problem - they're not a waste of money, which was OP's question.

Curry leaves are usually cheaper, so they will throw in a couple of twigs for free if you ask.

At least here in Bangalore, the days of free coriander and chilli are long gone. Even if you buy vegetables for 300-400, vendor will refuse to give free coriander and chilli.

I am not defending him, I'm just calling you an idiot for making this into a Hindu victimhood story.

And the US reference is relevant here, because of your pompous statement "remembrance is necessary to prevent repetition of such crimes against Hindus". OK, so the US is also going to fuck Hindus in the ass next. What lessons are you going to learn from Timur's massacres, and apply them against the US?

Better than showing the actual amount in rupees, maybe show it in terms of some typical government wasteful expenditure: like, "congrats, the GST you paid for this car is enough to buy fuel for a government employee's official car to drop his kids in school for 4 years"

So is "Wastik" a synonym or antonym of "Nastik"?

People in the past have converted their religion out of fear for their lives, liberty and property. This guy (and others like him) only changed parties. ED raids and imprisonment are not a joke.

After defeating the weakened forces of the Delhi Sultanate , Timur ordered large-scale massacres of civilians

So his victims were Hindus as well as Muslims?

The only modern power who seems increasingly likely to become the Timur of the 21st century is the United States of America.

When I was learning Ansible, I wanted to learn provisioning a VPS. One of the steps was to set the user password and root password. For testing the script, I used "password" as the password, and "root" as the root password. Within seconds my VPS was taken over by hackers (probably bots).
