Things you can do when you’re out with a couple and they start to fight!

Many of us have got friends who turned into couples with time and all you want is to have someone by your side when you look at them. You hang out together as a third wheeler and it’s always sweet to see them together and available for each other. But all your thoughts on getting into a relationship take a dive from a plane, without a parachute when you see them fighting and it’s everything from awkward to funny if you’re witnessing it for the first time. You know you should not be interfering but there are a few things you can do to kill time till they’re done fighting (which may never happen at least on that very evening). Here are the things you can do when you’re out with a couple and they start to fight!

NOTE: We are not encouraging you, but these are a few things we will do if we are in your shoes. And to us, those shoes would be mighty comfortable. We’re sure.

#1 Take a walk, maybe

You don’t have to deal with their drama since you didn’t sign up for this, take a walk. And just call them later and ask if they’re done fighting? There’s no way to put that question nicely. You might just want to drop it.

#2 Laugh

Took a walk and back at your seat just to find them still fighting about some random thing that makes no sense to you. But then again, you have the ability to make nonsensical things funny right? Do that for your own entertainment. Your inner self might ask you, “How do I stop this?!” Don’t! Have some fun in life!

#3 Drink their alcohol

Your drink is finished and before you order more it’s your decency to ask your friends what they’d like to have. But since they have more crappy topics to discuss and stretch their fight, it’s going to cost them. Your couple friends have to make it up to you for making you listen to their rants. Drink their alcohol while they’re busy gauging each other’s eyes out. When you’re at it, thank the Lord you’re single.

#4 Play the peacemaker… or the Devil

Start with the basics, tell them they look cute when they fight like little puppies (they deserve some mild sarcasm) and if it starts to work out you guys can enjoy the rest of the evening. If not, be the a–hole they never knew you were, add fuel to the fire. *evil laugh*

#5 Make a video, so you can laugh at them later

Be discreet, like they are on “Emotional Attyachaar”. You don’t have to be Scorsese for this. Even better, upload it on Snapchat with a caption like, “So hot when they’re at it!” so people know what you’re going through. You have all the reasons to do so.

#6 Shop online!?!

Well, why the hell not. When they can put up a fight and make you feel all awkward. You shop online! And piss them off by asking their suggestions.

Be like, “Timeout, guys! I need your opinions on the shirt!”

#7 Selfie!

Let them fight. You be the cool one. While they’re on, take a selfie with couple in the background. #TheSingleLife

#8 Mimic them

That’s how you get the attention from the people who forgot you were there with them. Oh, but you are on your own after you have their attention and they’re giving you ‘The look’.

#9 Ask them if they’re still your ride home

Be soft and easy, tell them they can go back to fighting but you need to know if they’re still driving you back home before any one of them just gets up and leave. Wrong day to ditch the car, the joke might just be on you.

#10 Play a game

Running out of options? Why not grow crops on Farmville! Play a darn game and whenever you lose, curse and yell. They can’t be the only one embarrassing you. Return the favour.

Source

#11 Call your friends

Ask your couple friends if you can invite a few friends over because since they’re busy fighting and you are bored as f*ck!

Source

#12 Interrupt them

Now, it’s your duty to relax the heated atmosphere, read some funny posts from Instagram, Tweet and tag them. Write on their Facebook wall! Basically, the motive is annoying the crap out of them.

Source

#13 Show some skill

Ask for their attention repeatedly and when you have it show them you can moonwalk and then moonwalk out of the room. Tell them who the boss is!

So that was our list of the things you can do when you’re out with a couple. If we’ve missed out on any idea, do let us know in the comments below!

Things you can do with your colleagues after work!

You walk into the office on just another morning and see your colleagues; the same sleepy faces, a yawn crying for a cup of coffee and you know you’re one of them. You wait for the working hours to get over so you can head out and get the madness started with the same faces, now friends. So if you’re running out of ideas about what to do next with your colleagues/friends after work, we’ve got some suggestions for you.

Here are things you can do with your colleagues after work!

#1 Karobar

Take your time to understand.

#2 Next stop: Food!

You need food. Wait, to put it correctly, we all need ‘good’ food after work. Because ghar ka khana, just can’t make do with it.

#3 Beer sessions

With beer arrives your smile. And then you talk about the most random crap that’s in your head. And with the beer, the day ends on a fantastic note.

Source

#4 Drinking games

Every office has got some pretty funny secrets. And you know that your teammate knows a lot of them. If you want to get hold of these secret in clever-yet-subtle fashion, you can start a drinking game. Let’s say, ‘Drink if’, that game has embarrassed people, got everyone in the game drunk and leaves you with that ‘WTF look’ and a hangover for the morning.

We’ll add Kill, F*ck, Marry. And leave this point right here.

#5 Talk work

Whether you’re a workaholic or someone who likes to be touted as one, discussing work with a colleague after-hours can be interesting too. However, we’d say add some creativity to and discuss work in a more fun and not-so-professional manner.

#6 Go shopping

This one’s for the ladies, their priorities are a tad bit different, you know.

Source

#7 Play some sports

Um, maybe. Suggestions would be swimming, squash, cricket and more.

#8 Walk into the office with a hangover

And see the same faces. Repeat cycle.

At Smokey’s, American BBQ meets smoke-infused sophistication

Since Smokey’s opened in Delhi’s GK-II area about a year ago, it has been as influential as every other iconic restaurant in the city. Not only is it famous for its smoke-infused food and cocktails, its flamboyant hospitality and vibrant ambience is what bringstrue connoisseurs back to this restaurant. Restaurateur and owner Shiv Karan Singh walked us through the journey of this now-beloved Delhi haunt. Here are the excerpts from the interview.

Shiv Karan Singh: I feel today every place has to be for everybody, kind of a feel good factor. Smokey’s is more than a restaurant; it’s an activity space where people can engage and have a great time without pinching their pockets. Yes of course we want everybody to come but I want everybody to remember me for my food more than anything else to be honest.

One look around the restaurant’s lofty wood and brick decor and you can guess the type of food they serve. From American style barbeque steaks to grills; this restaurant has something to satiate all kinds of palettes.

Shiv Karan Singh: I love all my food, my steaks, yes I love my steaks and I think what we offer is a very different palette of things whether it’s from the European to the little twist of the Indian taste. So I think we guys must be the one of the first ones to start with burger sliders and burger hot dogs, we do a lot of steaks, we do a lot of good fish; we have ‘red snapper’ we have ‘John Dory’, we have three or four different types of steaks which we offer which is quite known amongst the people out here.

The entrance of the restaurant is decked with a shot bar and the side wall is decked with coloured arty bottles. Smokey’s takes pride in the innovation they’ve introduced into the preparation of their cocktails.

Shiv Karan Singh: So we’ve used the smoke element with the liquor so we have a lot of smoke based cocktails out here. Whether you call it a smokey martini, a lock stock, old fashioned, all these are very new with lot of smoke with wood being used with a lot of things infusing together. My personal favourite cocktail here is the ‘smoking lock stock’ which is a vodka based cocktail thatI love, and then John does a ‘Johntini’ its a single malt cocktail which is one of my favourites out here.

Where: Plot 2, VIPPS Center, Masjid Moth, Greater Kailash (GK) II, New Delhi

Must Try: Cocktails – ‘Lock, Stock & A Smokin’ Barrel’ and ‘Burn Bourbon Burn’

Food – ‘John Dory with Smoked Shimla Chili’ and ‘Slider Dogs’
