Hi Friends,


Just got a mail from one of my friends few days back. so thought of sharing with you all. Its a worth reading and hope you all will like this. Please do comment how you feel about it.

• You cant drive for more than 10 mins without abusing someone
• The temperature touches 37.5 degrees and everyone starts panicking and journalists start yelling, “Lead story” “Lead story” “Lead story”…

• In the evening, the temperature drops a few degrees below normal and suddenly everyone is armed with sweaters and jackets.
• There is always one 'pan-wala' on the corner of street
• The first thing that you read in the Times of India is the "Bangalore Times" supplement.
• he most frequently used part of your car is the horn.

• After you return from a trip to Mumbai, you wonder why everything is suddenly in slow motion.
• Only in Bangalore , you would get Chinese Dosa and Jain Chicken.
• You still refer to the city as Bangalore not Bengaluru.
• Every three months you look at your street and say "Why're the digging the road again?"

• You drive up a busy flyover and have to suddenly screech your brakes. There’s a red light at the very top! What the…
• You never learnt how to stand in a queue
• when u r stuck in traffic even at 1:30 a.m

• In the apartment where you live, there isn’t a single floor, which doesn’t have at least one IT wallah.
• There are more Pubs,Malls and Movie Halls than anywhere in India
• There are more IT Companies in the City than hair on your head.

• Every second article in the local pages of your newspaper has the word “infrastructure” in it.

• When you go out for lunch, the sun is shining and the sky is blue with not a fleck of cloud. And yet by the time you’re leaving office, there’s a massive traffic jam because the roads are flooded after a torrential downpour and the sky is clear again!

• You have a swank fine dining restaurant buffet and think it’s incomplete because there’s no curd rice.

• You are told that your city’s Metro will be ready in 2011 and you just can’t stop laughing.
