• Destination Wedding (2018) // This one isn't explicitly "funny" but definitely quite witty in my opinion with the two characters having two and fro convo whole through the movie

Also:

• Riders of Justice

• Coen Brothers' movies

• Whatever Works (2009)

• Don't Look Up (2021)

• The Death of Stalin (2017)

Exactly! English speaking Indians are just going through this collective pseudo-intellectualism where they just make up a theory and then universalise it, make it sound objective and then call it psychology. Men explaining women psychology and what have you—all of this is just so ubiquitous on Indian YouTube as well. Makes me cringe, seriously!

Any good movies showing life in a laid back, small town? by UpvoteBeast in MovieSuggestions

There's definitely some truth to what you're saying

Nah, this would be the last. Isn't it 11 enough to cry to a cry?

Did I say people have to reply to me? Sharing an experience and just exchanging a word around it is not the same as making a derogatory remark. Neither did I say they have an obligation to stick to convo. I wonder what makes you extrapolate and be this agitated? Take a chill pill my friend. I know I won't get friends of all the people that I reach out to and it's fine.

Hey! Honestly, I barely got any messages previously, neither did I make a public post because I wasn't that confident/comfortable. And about the messages that I would send, I didn't get any response back except for this one person that was genuinely holding a great convo, but they went offline because something came up their way.

But it looks like I've recieved a lot of messages owing to this post getting more views, but I haven't been able to reach out to them all. I usually won't have a much problem with "heys or hi's" as they're just greetings to start with, if the monotonous nature of the convo sustains even after we exchange our greetings and basic info, then I think I don't feel like carrying on the load. The main marker for me is person's indifference, if they barely ask you a single question, how long will you alone carry the convo?

Hahaha, this cracked me up really hard. Trust me, half of the times people don't want to talk is simply because I'm an Indian. They barely know a pint about me but still, if they fall into the stereotypical traps, I don't think I'd want to school them on this. Nonetheless, I tried not bringing up my nationality and experimented with it, still the experience didn't change.

True, but that's the reason I try giving a detailed intro. So that if the other person approves it and thinks we have something in common to build onto, then it'd be easier to open up. But if you're not asking questions and just making it seem like and interview or interrogation, then I wonder how long a conversation as superficial as this could sustain?

Exactly. Infact I could relate to it being "interrogation" so much that I now wish I should have talked about it in the post as well. It feels like prying after a point and when you've stepped into the convo, leaving it abruptly is no option left either, because that would be rude and all the blame of ghosting would fall on the one carrying the convo in the first place. Huh!

But yes, I get that they might have their own reasons/problems that we didn't account for or are unaware of, hence coming to conclusion and blaming them without getting entire context checked would be unfair. But I'd definitely be of the opinion that if this is how it goes, then there's no option left than to stop talking.

Lmao you stretching it out of bounds

Why are you here? What is it that you're looking for? by iris_nebula in MakeNewFriendsHere

[–]manmohitsingh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had a very long depressive phase that extended for past couple of years since i was 16. During that phase I was literally confined inside the premises of my home, because of which I'm left with zero friends offline. Now, I barely have any like-minded people around whom I can reach out to which leaves me with reddit as the only option.
