I love the country where we have daily power cuts (37th time right now) (#mahavitran), where while one food app rapes your privacy (#swiggy), the other rapes everyone else of their money (fees and nonsense, #zomato), where your own money sitting in a moronic bank has ass of developers and bigger morons in management (#hsbc), where the gov continuously lies about things while silently increasing gas prices (850 to 952 due to #lpg), where the gov is all about only votes and hiding the truth, earning tons of money and doing #shit for it, where the employer has more money to invest in #aislop #llm and nonsense, but has no money or losses when it comes to hike and increment for employees, ohh and I love it how they will give 4 times to a new joiner, but will tell the old employees: you are earning more than what the market rate is.. Woooowww what ass filled country I live in.

I forgot to mention, I love it since people are more into #dikhawa (showoff) and full time into language fights and blaring noise till 2AM, while letting no one else sleep. Some people do die with loud noise.

Anyway, I love my country...
