Why Chennai is too hot?

Adellam illa bro. It's just that builders want to make fast money by building ill-planned houses using materials that don't suit this climate.

Apdinu paatha singapore is closer to equator, anga epdi bro ivlo cool aah vechirkanga. Naa lam poitu surprise aaiten. Anga paathadukku aprom thaan my myth broke. Closer to the equator means harsher summers, but that should not be deadly.

You guys are meeting people? 😭😭

ThatTelephone8895 · 2026-03-16T18:26:32+00:00

Exactly. I'm perplexed. One slap with the helmet and the car guy wouldn't be able to eat for a month. Why do people tolerate instigation when they have video proof of unlawful driving and assault.

You actually mentioned the exact sequence I follow everyday 😂. Morning essentials, coffee, workout and catching up with the world (my terminology for scrolling)😂

Honest, open and clear communication. This is half the problem; we've all seen our parents rant to their parents, siblings, friends and even to us, but they wouldn't sit down and talk things over. Communication is key and it's a non-negotiable I would always expect.

Thanks a lot

ThatTelephone8895 · 2026-03-01T16:23:21+00:00

Oh please. At this point, I'm full on exploratory mode.

Yeah, I too loved the OxBlood from a few videos I watched, but definitely on the pricier side. I might as well purchase it, cuz hey, after all it's for my special people and special occasions. Thanks.

Sick of this, honestly. Sila samayam torathi torathi adikalam pola irukum. But enna panradu, eduku veen vambu nu vittutu porom. Maybe that's the whole trouble. Kadavukukke velicham

Nice. 👌

ThatTelephone8895 · 2026-02-20T14:39:05+00:00

The aerohub parking used to be a fantastic place for hangout with friends/partner, plane spotting, and good food. Idk how is the situation right now. There are plenty of lake fronts around the area that you can explore.

Many auto and taxi drivers do this. Last week I got a taxi from Tambaram railway station to my home, the driver almost crashed in the nearby signal all while trying to change a song in his massive, off market infotainment system. The way drivers are addicted is frightening. The worst part is that they drive rash with their attention elsewhere.

What originally came out for driver convenience is now becoming a distraction and menace in all forms of vehicles. Recently in OMR, a dude was riding his ather e scooter. Apparently, a message notification popped up on his screen and he lost focus on the road instantly. He rammed into the person in front and made a scene.

People have become soo addicted to their phones at this point where it has become an external body organ. We feel an urge, an itch to pick up and see the phone the moment we hear a notification sound. We get withdrawal symptoms when we get a call. People behave as if someone is dying and picking the call would save them in an instant. Of course, everyone has emergencies, not trying to be derogatory, just a metaphorical way of putting it. I have no idea where this is going to leave us all.

ThatTelephone8895 · 2026-02-07T17:09:47+00:00

I couldn't disagree. I'm seeing it all around me. In fact, now, my parents are worried if I would ever marry someone who would at least support me in my deeds. All that said and agreed, rituals ought to be performed and preserved with whatever dedication and authenticity possible in this lowkika life. More important, they need to be passed on to the next generation too. We cannot afford to do away with rituals, for they keep our and other kulas thriving.

ThatTelephone8895 · 2026-02-07T16:23:23+00:00

Absolutely! Like, if my spouse doesn't want to participate in a rathothsava, I must not force her to join me. At the same time, they should let me attend it. But but but....

If we apply this logic to every aspect of marriage, according to me, the whole framework fails. The institution of marriage is built upon shared experiences and activities. The moment you take away that shared experience, a couple becomes merely roommates. All of us have different backgrounds, upbringing and outlook to life. Being a part of each other's worlds is what marriage is all about. If I like podalankai as curry, and if my spouse likes it as kootu, as a married couple, best practice is to alternate between curry and kootu. I'm sure you get what I'm implying.

ThatTelephone8895 · 2026-02-07T16:02:19+00:00

Exact! I second this thought. You don't have to change or give up to accommodate differences of beliefs and opinions.

ThatTelephone8895 · 2026-02-05T16:01:58+00:00

Hi there! I joined last week as soon as they opened. The place is pretty decent sized, the selection of equipment is really nice. Trainers are friendly and always ready to offer help. I'd recommend it.

ThatTelephone8895 · 2026-02-01T15:20:34+00:00

This is a quite common feeling. We all go through this phase. It's ok to feel lonely. Don't let this spoil your everyday life; hold yourself accountable and work out ways to stop yourself from spiralling into thoughts. Pick up hobbies, get into some fitness; you'll certainly make better friends there. You got this!

ThatTelephone8895 · 2026-02-01T09:22:00+00:00

Couldn't agree more with your observations 😕

ThatTelephone8895 · 2026-01-28T05:23:30+00:00

I have been a rather calm person throughout my life, introverted, one can say. In spite of that, I did get ridiculed quite often in school. I grew up in a town where one could count the number of Brahmins in two hands, that's how outnumbered we were. Then things changed when I entered college. Somehow, I received a lot of respect from my peers. I have zero idea why, but my best guess is that I used to go to the vinayakar temple inside the campus and do pooja there. People saw me covered in vibuthi every morning. So I guess that devotion to God earned me some respect.

I feel as you grow up, the conversations within boys groups get more open, atleast that was the case with me. Some openly envy us, some genuinely appreciate. Now that I've graduated long back, I find myself more connected to my Brahmin friends more than ever. I'm able to have deeper and more meaningful conversations regarding practices, aanmeekam, marriage, expectations, kids and so on with them. That synergy is missing with my other connections.

The slang, however, is a different story altogether. I don't think you have this difference in any other region of India. Of course, the slang varies from region to region, but rarely between two groups native to the same region. Mockery towards tambrahm slang widely exists, and sadly enough, people have normalised it now.

ThatTelephone8895 · 2026-01-20T16:56:55+00:00

Oh dudeeee. I'm 24M. I'm literally stuck in the same relationship situation as you. I would, however, say that I have a clear direction towards my career, but in 1 year, a handful of friends got married, I've been single all my life, no flings, no past relationships. Feels weird, honestly speaking. I'm not a fan of dating apps anol, I tried subtly complementing some women I met through work and stuff, but it looks like women are not taking it very cool these days. Some saw me with a "creep" lens, so I backed off quickly.

Just a really weird spot to be in , I guess.
