If you’ve never tried the Tap to Pay feature on your NFC-enabled Android phone, you’re really missing out on the smooooothest payment experience ever!
Just tap your phone on the merchant’s card machine and it’s done done! No PIN for txns < INR 2000.
Thread on how to enable…
This is Vishal. He delivered my Swiggy order today. He's an artist and he is looking for work. Do let me know if you would like to get a painting/wall art commissioned. I can put you in touch with him. Do spread the word and help him out!
Insider story: A certain ma'am once demanded a car to travel 150 m from our college gate to the auditorium. She also insisted that it be a big sedan. 😂
She then proceeded to give a TEDx talk about her 'struggle'. 😂

If you were into torrenting in the last decade, you might be familiar with Yify/YTS. He was based in NZ and made good quality rips available.
TIL that YouTuber Karl Rock (who now has a huge following in India) played a part in helping Yify get captured by police.
I went to a HDFC Bank branch today. An employee took a copy of my ID proof, asked me to sign it and collected it as part of the process.
A middle aged man who was in the queue behind me remarked, 'Doosre banks mein humko baahar bhejte hai copy lene ke liye. Yeh log achche hai.'
Throwback to the year 2019 when my sister and her friends used to send money to each other via UPI with the most random and obscene transaction remarks.
It was all fun and games until my parents saw her bank statement. 😂😂😂
I'm glad that these extremely problematic and sexist Malayali takes are being called out and addressed now.
Kerala might be literate and prosperous, but we still have a long way to go.
Check the replies - so many vegetarians in the comments worried about getting a dabba that was once used for non-veg.
Curious to know what it'd take for them to consider that dabba 'pure' again. Washing with dishwashing liquid clearly doesn't do the trick for them.
This is how I got my
@Swiggy
order today because they're trying to help reduce one time use plastic & will pick up these boxes when convenient for me. How amazing!! Great stuff Swiggy!
My mom started texting my sister (as you can see in the second screenshot) and while she was trying to figure out what to reply, the prof confiscated her phone for texting in class. 😂
My mother was sent a certificate over WhatsApp to show that she completed her quarantine successfully. She had flown in from Bombay in March.
Kerala is doing so much!
Why Mallus are the most fucking annoying people on Twitter (in addition to being insufferable know-it-alls who hide their lack of a personality behind their state's HDI index...)
A thread....
My first brush with this kind of sexism was when I was studying at CET (one of the best engineering colleges in Kerala).
Any girl who spoke out confidently (esp. in English), dressed nicely or hung out with dudes was systematically harassed and put down.
It was horrific. 🤐

This means you neither know how much a ladies luxury bag costs nor you know the salary of a VP at JP Morgan. I used Google in my phone for you to find out and do the math. And don’t forget to multiply with 100, the No of pieces written by you
Last weekend, I went on a date with an immunologist. She's really into cooking and biochemistry.

@krishashok
's posts, I've been learning a bit about how cooking works. I mentioned the Maillard reaction and the way her face lit up! 😍😭
Buying your book asap. 😬😛
Would y'all be interested in attending a free session that explains basics of investing - returns, risk, shares, stock markets, mutual funds?
I'm planning to conduct one such session for friends. And I wouldn't mind doing the same again for Twitter folks. Let me know?
Today's my first day at my new job. ✌🏾
It's my first time switching jobs so kinda nervous and apprehensive.
Send me best wishes and good vibes, folks 😬
Merely a coincidence:
The bike which Hon’ble Chief Justice is riding has registration number CG05BP0015.
The bike is registered to Rohit Sonbaji Musale, son of Sonba Musale who is a BJP leader from Nagpur & was their nominee in the 2014 Assembly polls from Saoner.
Small world.
Aerial views of Delhi.
There seems to be a stark boundary separating the greener parts from the more dense concrete sprawl?
Can anyone tell me what it is?
Everyday I come to the shocking realization that more and more people on this bird app are Malayali. Even the ones who never tweet in Malayalam or mention it on their profiles. 😬
Summer Placements Season 2017
One of the lowest points in my life. Took this selfie for my parents to reassure them that I was doing okay. Look at my eyes though. 😔
Never though that this would blow up like this. I will reply to all the enquiries and share Vishal's details. Need some time though.
In the meantime, please check my blog (Shameless plug)
Akash works at my company and I've known him since we interned together. He is undergoing treatment for leukemia and is in desperate need of funds.
Please help by donating or spreading the word. It would mean a lot to me.
The amount of sanctimonious gatekeeping that has surfaced after yesterday's final is crazy.
If someone enjoys a game of football, why do you feel the need to show that you're a better or more dedicated fan of the sport?
If you can understand Malayalam, watch this video of a priest expressing his anguish at people enjoying themselves at weddings with a Suresh Gopi style monologue! 😂
FACT update for sirjee
- Jatti is common term used in Kerala & TN
- I have many jattis
- I personally recommend Jockey jatti
- After each use, please launder. Don't turn inside out and use second time like my college roomie
- Jattis not covered under return policy of Myntra
My cousin was telling me her WhatsApp statuses are filled with 'Jai Shri Ram' posts.
I've hardly seen any. Looks like I've cleaned up my friends circle nicely. 😛

I once ran away from home.
After bringing me back, they didn't go ballistic.
They made it seem like a minor transgression and we all laughed. Said I was following in my dad's and grandfather's footsteps. I never thought of doing it again as a result. They handled it really well.
Experiencing the joys of street food in Trivandrum 😬
1. Sharjah shake (why don’t they make this in Bombay?!)
2. Pani puri shawarma (why should Gujjus have all the fun?!)
Last year, after completing my MBA, I did some part-time work for a tech bro because I needed some money urgently.
He never paid me for the work. And a year later, he shamelessly asked me to give him access to the Google sheets. 😂👌
He can keep his fucking money. Don't want it.
Had to take a dump. On a train. Checked both options. There was a stinky Western commode without a toilet seat. And some Indian offerings in it too. Indian commode was less repulsive. Picked the Indian one. Worked fine except the flush. Time to get vocal about local.
Many of my friends have been put through s lot of emotional abuse because of takes like this one.
'Hes doing it because he loves you. Try to understand.'
