If you classify yourself as a drinking enthusiast and end up at the bar every second day, you might want to rethink! We get it, drinking is fun, drinking makes you forget all your sorrows, drinking makes you a better person (perhaps) and the list can go on. But honestly, we believe there is a thin line between being a drinking enthusiast and turning into an alcoholic. These symptoms below may just define your status around that thin line – probably drooping towards alcoholism! Take a look.

1. Its 6 p.m. on a weekday and all you can hope for is your friends calling you to catch up for a drink!

   

2. The easiest way for you to get rid of a hangover is to drink more (Like they say ‘diamond cuts diamond’)

   

3. You don’t mind socializing with different sets of people on consecutive days, of course over drinks

   

4. You just can’t hold your drinks, in fact you have never understood how one glass turns into a nightmare of 15 glasses

   

5. When it comes to knowing different kinds of spirits, brands and their impact; your reaction is always ‘been there, done that!’

   

6. About half your monthly income is washed away the morning after every night of heavy drinking only to make you realise the amount of money you’ve been spending on it.

   

7. You don’t feel that ‘high’ very easily anymore. Chances are your body is already immune to the high that comes with not-so-potent drinks.

   

8. Most of your social media updates involve a drink in your hands or just nice looking alcoholic beverages.

   

9. It’s difficult for you to get a sound sleep without a little alcohol in your system.

   

10. You need atleast two shots of your favourite poison to address important issues with your family/friends.

    
    

PS – Most likely your pet catch phrase is ‘I’m going on a detox, AFTER TONIGHT’

Indian culture is an amalgamation of several cultures and habits but the beauty really lies in the fact that most of us behave similarly no matter where we are. And, we take pride in things that make us different from the rest of the world (mostly in a good way). Here are a few examples of universal Indian behaviour witnessed almost everywhere and how much we love it.

DISCLAIMER: None of these points are meant to hurt/offend anyone’s sentiments. This a light-hearted post simply appreciating things that we experience very often.

Wondering what to do on the so called ‘day of love’? The answer should be – Nothing! That’s right, stay home and enjoy that friggin’ Saturday in bed doing nothing at all. Or better yet, no matter what plan your other friends have with their respective loved ones, here’s what all you can do to have some fun while flaunting your “single” status. Take a look.

1. Call up your friends with special plans and ask them why they celebrate Valentine’s?

Chances are your friend who has been planning to make this day oh-so-special with his/her special someone has no clue about the history behind Valentine’s Day! And in a situation like this, perhaps you could engage yourself with their answers and maybe write a funny blog about it? (Who knows it might just go viral and make you famous).

2. Do a horror movie marathon!

There’s nothing better than to go against all clichés on this day. Rent a few horror movies and watch them all back to back, like a boss! Trust us, this way you’d save a lot of money and you won’t have to drag your a** out of bed all day! Our suggestion – Start with the ‘Insidious’ movies (if you haven’t seen them already).

3. Alcohol!

Who says day drinking is bad? Or day-to-the-evening-till-the-night drinking is bad either? Here’s what you gotta do… call up a few of your fun friends (who are single to be precise) and grab a bottle of your favourite sweet poison and… we don’t need to spell the rest out, do we?! PS – do not forget to b*tch about your other friends who are currently out on stupid dates. Stupid!

4. Cry about not having a date this year either. (NOT)

If that makes it 5 years in a row, you’re awesome! Buying presents, planning something special, getting hectic… guess what? You just saved yourself from all that trouble all these years while your committed friends were going through that insanity over this super-hyped day. Therefore, do not! We repeat Do NOT feel bad about not having a ‘special someone’ just because it’s Valentine’s Day!

5. Gift yourself something stupid and funny

Fine, you are allowed to be a little (a tiny bit) dramatic if nothing works. Go out or just go online and shop for something for yourself. Pampering yourself is your prerogative that no one else can compete with. At the end of the day, it’s you who knows exactly what would make you happy.

6. Concoct schemes about all the things you could do to your friends with special plans

Time to get a little nasty! How about some fun at the expense of your friends who have been annoying the cr*p outta you over this day since forever? Devise a wicked little scheme to play a harmless prank on your annoying couple friends. Though make sure that you don’t go overboard and end up ruining their most-awaited date!

7. Spend time with those who actually love you unconditionally– Your family!

As we all know, Valentine’s Day is not just about spending it with your better half. How about you spend some quality time with your folks, take them out and pamper them. Treat this day as just another occasion to express your love for them. It will be a great gesture from your side, especially for your parents! There is no better way to celebrate Valentine’s Day than with the people who really care about you.

‘Men are from Mars and women are from Venus’ is a classic cliché we’ve all grown up denying. We can’t say much about relationships but in everyday situations at least, we think, the popular saying holds true. Here is a list of ten topics we discuss almost every day that mean north in a man’s world and south in a woman’s. 

Disclaimer – The article doesn’t seek to perpetuate any gender stereotypes. It is just a light-hearted observation of the opposite ways in which men and women respond to regular lunchtime discussions.

1. Toilet humour
Those ‘doodie’ jokes never go out of style. Most men, no matter how sophisticated they seem to be, enjoy this kind of humour. And let’s face it at times it really is funny….unless you’re a woman and have zero tolerance for things that might just make you sick to your stomach!

2. Objectifying people
While most men consider it as their favourite past time, women hate it! No ‘She’ won’t rate her friend out of 10! Neither should you (at least, not out loud).

3. Personal hygiene
Stating the obvious… A man not bathing for 48 hours is not really a big deal (in his head). Women on the other hand are a walking pack of tissues, sanitiser, face-wash and the list goes on!

4. Porn
Watching porn is absolutely fine in a man’s universe and yes, he will happily admit it, talk about it and even discuss favourites. Most women, on the other hand, mostly find this odd with a small percentage of exceptions who are closeted porn lovers!

5. Chick-flicks
Chick-flicks are to women what porn is to men (minus the emotions). Enough said!’

6. Makeup
While most women can’t imagine stepping out of the house without their face on, men, most of the times can’t even notice the difference.

7. Fried chicken
Or anything that’s high on fat! Even most men who work out to stay super fit don’t really mind walking into KFC for a nice meal. On the other hand, fat is a woman’s worst enemy.

8. Gossip
Men claim to hate it but let’s face it, each one of them does it. Why not learn from their friends from Venus and accept that they like giving into the indulgence every now and then?!! Believe us, there’s nothing wrong with it.

9. Driving
Women, the multi-taskers that they are, can drive perfectly well while speaking to their mom on the phone, putting on makeup and doing all kinds of other stuff with one hand on the wheel. Whereas men……let’s just say multitasking is not their forte!

10. Shopping
Men shop because they need clothes! But that doesn’t hold true in a woman’s world. They shop because it is their hobby, their favourite past time and sometimes their reason to wake up every morning!
