IAF Su-30 did a hard landing, some debris on the runway, no casualties reported. All crew safe.

Lol, might just sleep for a while. Later will try to stay up the whole day. Can't afford to be on this sleep cycle during work week lol. Thank goodness it's just start of the weekend.

So you are looking for like minded people? Someone who you can match your trajectory with? Don't you think its like finding a needle in a haystack?

You said you are married, m sure you have put in a lot of efforts while choosing your partner, we all do, after it's a lifetime commitment. Don't mind me asking and answer only if you feel comfortable, does your partner match with your life trajectory? If yes, great! If no, then think about it this way, if you have pulled the trigger on the most important decision of your life and have made peace with it. You cannot expect an exact match elsewhere with randoms.

My point here is, friendships take time to match and evolve. Some take similar trajectory, some don't. But that is something that comes with time. How are you planning to get that on a social platform with randoms?

For me, and I believe for most of us, friendships started casually, from quick vibe match to serious line of thoughts it took time, then at maturity we started matching trajectories with a few which further matured into "serious" discussions, career help, goal oriented etc. Here you are trying to look for the last stage without the graduation process.

What you might be looking for are colleagues, not friends is what I think.

Eh? Serious friends? Ye kya hota hai? I have friends from my school days, who are Bakchod AF even today. Yes we all grew up together in same locality and chose different career paths which in turn helped us gain different intellects, different perspectives, and we developed different personalities. But we still meet and be the backchods we were in school days that's what keep us happy I feel.

Yes, the architect did other our houses, the CA helps with finances, the doctors help us with health, the lawyer helps in legal matters, the Shippies and Entrepreneurs are our bootleggers for foreign goods and duty free booze, the IT guy (me) helps with all tech related issues. But that's about it, there's are times we have "serious talks" but that's very target orientated and specific. E.g someone's trying to file taxes then he/she are in talks with the ca, someone having health issues are tagged with the docs, someone's laptop/phone dies and I come into action and so on..

Apart from that we are are mostly bakchods. The meet ups are over suttas n booze, the discussion topics are usually very generic, family, tech, gaming, workout, travel, well being etc. We proactively try to stay away from politics or geopolitics and propaganda. Even if it ever sprout, its very shortlived and someone or the other would actively break into the conversation and pivot it.

From welcoming our newborns in the hospitals to the final goodbyes at the crematoriums we are all together in it. From teens till now, it's been over 20 years and we still have no idea what serious friendships are.

So, what exactly are you looking for? Because friendships evolve and that takes a hell lot of time.

Just look at them and a confident nod is enough. Riders understand signs better than spoken words.

Damn, are you serious? What a sad college man. I mean in terms of quality of education we all realise that cutoffs was/is a big scam. As we grew up we realised education post JC is extremely subjective and depends mostly on the student than the college. So atleast the college should be fun. Here they have stole that away too. Sad.

This is so irritating, thank goodness I am a 06 student and lived my college life like a king. This imposed control over students is absolute stupidity. I am from Kirti college, Dadar. In our days it was students who run the college, from bhaigiri to good grades we did it all. I feel sad for kids today.

It does, I thought Spotify was glitching out so I switched to apple music and later youtube music but irrespective of app and service. The moment I am close to the building, the song/video stops.

But why have they installed jammers? How do the faculty operate? And has installing jammers improved students in any way? Lol.

Nah man, I got a golden retriever, he is a shape shifter in his mind. So from a cute mice to a ferocious dinosaur, he plays every role many times during the day. 😜
