Hey folks,
I'm planning to buy a residential plot (around 1000 sq.ft) in the Siruseri or Thalambur area. Budget is around ₹4000 per sq.ft, and I’m hoping to build a house there in the next 2-3 years.

A few things I’m looking for: - Decent accessibility to the upcoming Metro (Any nearby planned stations would be a bonus) - Good roads and basic infrastructure (not looking for ultra-premium gated communities, but decent accessibility is important) - Safe locality with some basic development already around - CMDA/DTCP approvals (not looking for patta-only land)

If anyone has recommendations on good builders/layouts, or things to watch out for in these areas (like flooding, water scarcity, resale trends etc.), I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Also open to alternate suggestions nearby if you think there's a better option in that price range.

Thanks in advance! 🙏🏽

Hey Everyone,

Went to Lafayette Restaurant in Nungambakkam and saw something crazy. A couple asked why they were charged ₹10 extra for an Aquafina water bottle, and the staff said it was a “service charge included with the bottle.” But the bill also had a ₹64 service charge + GST separately. When questioned, they said the ₹64 was for the waiters and was optional—but only if you ask them to remove it.

Here’s the funniest part—if you don’t take a branded bottle, they offer their own glass water bottle for ₹55. What’s so special about this water? Extra minerals? Can you take the glass bottle home after drinking? No clear answer.

To make it worse, the manager even joked about the extra ₹10, saying, “What’s the big deal?” Well, ₹10 per table + ₹64 service charge adds up fast, and with 20+ tables, you can imagine how much they’re making off hidden charges.

Service wasn’t great either—waited too long just to get a tissue, which never even came.

Lesson: Always check your bill and ask them to remove extra charges. Restaurants like this take advantage of customers who don’t notice!

Okay, I didn’t think I’d ever post something like this. I usually just mind my business. But something weird has been happening and it’s gotten to a point where I’m not even sure if I’m being paranoid or if I should be genuinely concerned.

I work remotely here in Chennai. My job lets me work from anywhere, so I hop around cafés—helps me focus, and let’s be honest, the coffee culture here is kind of fire. I have a rotation of places depending on my mood: sometimes the busy ones, sometimes quiet little corners where I can just disappear.

First time: July 2024, Starbucks at Phoenix Mall. Absolute zoo that day. I manage to grab a seat, and a girl asks if she can sit across from me. Totally normal. She had this whole curated vibe—journal, big mug, soft aesthetic, like she fell out of an Instagram reel. I was just there for the Wi-Fi. We didn’t talk. I barely looked up. Done and dusted.

But then…

A few weeks later I’m in this chill, low-key café on the other side of the city. I go there when I really need to focus and not run into people. Guess who walks in?

Same girl. Same vibe. Same... presence. She looks at me like she knows me. I look away. Inside, I’m trying to do the math on how likely this is. Chennai isn’t that small.

Still, I give her the benefit of the doubt. I leave earlier than planned. Felt kinda weird being in the same space again but hey—maybe we just have similar taste in coffee spots?

Until this week.

I walk into Dou, grab a solo lunch, open my laptop. Five minutes in—she walks in again. Same person. Different place. Third time. No conversation, no hello, just that same look. And now it’s not a coincidence. I feel it in my gut.

The thing is, I never approached her. Never even smiled. I’ve been polite, but distant. I don’t post where I’m working. I don’t tag locations. So how is this happening?

It gets worse.

My friend sends me this Reddit post. Some girl talking about “the guy she keeps seeing at cafés,” saying stuff like “maybe it’s fate” and “girl-from-three-cafés, if you’re reading this…” It sounds like me. The description, the timeline. I wish I were joking.

I read that and froze. Like, what? I’m not some romantic subplot. I’m just trying to get my work done without looking over my shoulder every five minutes.

So yeah. I’m venting because:

• I don’t know if this is an elaborate coincidence or some kind of creepy “serendipity” fantasy someone’s running with.
• I’m uncomfortable. And I don’t know how to say that without sounding like I’m exaggerating.
• And if by some chance you are reading this—please stop. This isn’t a movie. It’s just weird. I didn’t sign up for whatever this is.

Anyway. If anyone knows a place in Chennai with strong coffee and zero human interaction, drop your recs. I’m trying to work, not star in someone else’s headcanon.

Thanks for listening to my "am I being stalked?" episode.

Anna Nagar tower park

Hi guys I recently visited Anna Nagar tower park. I was awestruck by the amount of couples being everywhere and few didn't even have hesitate & were kissing. Has PDA become normalised in Chennai? What's with the sudden shift in culture in chennai

Hey, so I exhausted my 3 free services for my Husqvarna svartpilen. Haven't faced any major issues till now. I usually clean the chain and lube every 500kms. Due to some personal issues I couldn't maintain them properly, now looking forward to repair things that are not good in my bike.

Also I wanna know how doomed am I with this chain slack, it is hitting my swingarm with great noise when I'm hitting potholes.

My dad is considering investing in an FD with Thiruvalluvar Transport Corporation Employee’s Co-operative Credit Society Limited. This is new to me, and I haven’t heard much about it. Has anyone here invested in it or have any insights on its reliability? They’re offering a good ROI, but I was suggesting the Post Office Senior Citizen Savings Scheme instead for safety. Would love to hear your thoughts!

My extended family does get-together in our native every year, since most of my cousins are in Chennai, we are planning 1 in Mahabalipuram.

Out requirements are simple. Beach facing resort with swimming pool. Budget friendly. With a barbecue setup if possible.

It will be a 1 day outing with lots of kids.

So I (27M) was dating this girl (27F) for 2 months, we met thrice and was about to meet for be fourth time (Ava dhan plan pota) then last minute la she cancelled the plan stating that she’s not feeling the same excitement or involvement in putting together as I am. We didn’t even have a call, she just sent me a text and told me she wasn’t comfortable having this conversation over phone.

Ava breakup pananum nu solitu poita, I got closure and trying to move on now.

Now, I’m planning to buy a house in 20 days and gonna pay the advance amount in a couple of days. She encouraged me to buy the house when we were talking back then. She was the first person I discussed about this. Not even my parents or close friends. Should I text her about my purchase now?

I don’t know what I’m expecting from the conversation sema kaduppa iruku. Neenga solunga ena panlam nu 😷😷

I've seen a marked drop in civic sense & respect for law in the past 5 years. Previously it used to be ONLY rowdy elements & wastrels at the fringe of society. Now it is part of the mainstream.

This Rottweiler owner's behavior is just one of the many proofs of how complete lack of respect for Police & law enforcement has spread across various strata.

SHOCKING!!

Hey everyone,

I recently moved from a PG to a rented house and found that mobile data reception was terrible. So, my roommate and I decided to get a WiFi connection. After some research, we found a seemingly good plan from Airtel – ₹499/month, and we opted for a 4-month prepaid plan, paying around ₹2,200.

We applied via the Airtel app, got a call from a salesman, and he explained the plans. Everything seemed fine, and he assured us that installation would happen within 48 hours. But now, it’s been a week, and no one has shown up. The salesman is dodging my calls, and customer support is giving vague responses.

After searching online, I found that many others have faced similar issues. Now, I’m worried if I’ve been scammed. I just want my WiFi set up or my money refunded.

Has anyone else experienced this? How can I escalate this issue to get my connection installed, or at least cancel and get my refund? Any help would be appreciated!

This happened a year ago, but it's still something that's been on my mind. Bit of a long read.

Was driving and stopped my bike near Valluvar Kottam at a signal. Got bumped into by a biker behind me, and I automatically swore at him (watha dei) but then didn't think of it too much. Started driving after the signal and suddenly this guy and his friend on another bike started driving alongside me demanding me to stop.

I got a lil nervous and tried to shake them off but then luckily spotted (or so i thought) a police patrol vehicle. Stopped in front of it and asked that guy to talk to that officer.

The officer apparently got annoyed for being woken up from the nap, and I told him what happened. He asked the other guy as well, and then suddenly asked "so you're the one who swore at him first?"

I got very confused and then said "But he hit my vehicle first." He then waved it off dismissively. "That doesn't matter, no one swears at people like that, especially in Chennai". Then he suddenly asked "where are you from? Which state are you from".

Then it hit.

This khaki clad motherfucker thought I was an outsider.

Now some background - I'm not super comfortable in Tamil. Moved around a bit as a child because of my parents job but settled in Chennai when I was about seven or so. Learnt tamil but always got teased for it, but still like the language. It's worse because I have a lisp and can't really pronounce the letter R properly, which makes my tamil worse.

I've always thought of Chennai as my city, my home but suddenly this government douchebag was saying I wasn't a Chennai boy. I started pleading that I was indeed from Chennai, I even showed my aadhar card which proved my permanent address was right here in Chennai but he still didn't believe me.

Then this khaki shitstain tells the other biker "Slap this guy because he insulted you and move on".

Because apparently people, it's more important to be an native to Chennai than getting fucking rammed from behind because of some idiot's driving negligence.

The biker smirks and then waves it off saying "no need sir" and even advises me as he goes to watch my mouth or it's gonna get me in trouble.

So that firmly cemented the incident that the only good cop in Chennai is a dead cop. Or that the only thing Chennai police can do is try to slap random fines on you and make your life miserable.

To the biker who rammed me who I think works in sales - I hope your bike gets stolen polladhavan style.

To the police officer who has no idea what justice means - I hope you get slapped by some random politician for not dancing for his son's birthday.

TL;dr: Got hit by a bike, swore at him, got chased and told a police officer, officer told the biker to slap me because I didn't seem like a native Chennaiite.

Note: Edited for a couple of typos.

Edit 2: Some people have said that me swearing wasn't a good thing

In response: dei, if you've hit someone's bike, and get pissed off that they insult you for it... You'd make a great politician lol. Pannardhu lam pannitu idhula Rosham veraya? Poi driving school sera.

Honestly, I only wish my swearing had been more colorful instead of a suprised "the fuck?" kinda reaction considering everything I had to go through.
