And we just can’t stop laughing!
was having dinner at Nana's and I generally make niwalas out of my roti using both hands, which is not the "right etiquette" apparently. Man just looks at me for a couple of seconds then goes in his full bihari accent: "ab paaun bhi laga hi lijiye" 😭😭😭 https://t.co/nAlqdSfF8S

Haha, dadi jaan getting straight to the point!
My dad’s ancestral home was haunted. There was a spirit/jinn who’d wake one of them up routinely. Poor thing tried it on my daadi once. Daadi’s narration:
‘Menu ik hath nazar aya meri akhan dey agay hilda, main puchya: paiyaan tussi kaun ho?’

My grand mother had Alzheimer’s in her last years and she used to sing songs of her youth randomly. Once while singing, she asked me to sing any song for her. I started and after a line or two she stopped me and said “Tou puttar rehn de, tere wass di gal nahi”. 🤡😂 https://t.co/KrMW88n6Aq
