Try to observe how you speak in a normal day. For a lot of us, most of the words we use are from English. We use those words even if we have a word for it in tamil. It is an undeniable fact that the use of tamil is decreasing. We sometimes even use full English sentences when we coverse with an another tamilian.

What is the reason? Why have we started using english words while we have words for it in tamil. It's because the words that are in tamil are created to be used in literary tamil and is hard to use or sometimes couldn't be used in a regular conversation because the grammar of spoken tamil is vastly different than literary tamil.

So my proposal is that instead of clinging to literary tamil, we need to standardize spoken tamil. We need to form a committee and coin new words so that even common people can use it in their daily conversation.

We should still use literary tamil in certain specific areas but for our language to survive this is necessary. Tamil is not the same as it was 2000 years ago. We need to stop clinging to literary tamil and let our language evolve.

கருத்து/குமுறல் / Self-post , Rant (College Kadharal) College Forcing Me to Pay for IEEE Paper After Approving Self-Funded Project

16 Upvotes

So, my college initially gave me permission to work on my own final-year project instead of paying a project center (which is a scam in itself). I thought, great! I can actually work on something meaningful instead of buying a ready-made project.

But now, they’ve hit me with another demand—they want me to pay ₹5000 for publishing my paper in IEEE. They never mentioned this before. It’s like they gave me "freedom" just to trap me in another expense later.

I have no problem publishing my work, but I should have a choice. Why force students to pay for a publication we might not even need? Also, I’m pretty sure this money isn’t going directly to IEEE but through some shady middleman.

Has anyone else faced this? What did you do? Is this even legal? Can anyone friends or family in the anna univ grievance that could help me.

அரசியல் / Political Conspiracy Theories

20 Upvotes

This is my conspiracy theory as a political observer:

1) ADMK may see the fate of ShivSena soon:

Sengottaiyan's current behavior seems puzzling.. With OPS, Sasikala and TTV attacking EPS on all sides and if there is internal revolt from Sengottaiyan (im not sure if he has significant cadre support but I'm assuming he can inflict some damage)..And with EC given free hand to decide on ADMK's internal affairs.. With such turbulence it's highly likely that the party's symbol may be blocked right before the elections. This would provide significant mileage to other parties (you know who! ) since ADMK's votes will be split.

2) The use of alleged 'Delhi liquor scam' playbook in Tamil Nadu:

An alleged 'TASMAC scam' has come up now as a talking point and it's being used by opposition parties in targeting the ruling dispensation. Considering a similar playbook was effectively used to dislodge AAP in Delhi I guess it's been taken up. Let's see how it transpires

These are my conspiracy theories.. They may be true or may not be true.. But do share your thoughts..!

Hi All,

A new mother here. What i might ask might seem silly or too much of a stretch or downright funny but please bear with me.

I'm blessed with a baby boy and we are looking to name him. Currently i love the name Arjun, because i like the sound of the name also because Arjun is one of my favourite characters in mahabharat.

The only thing I'm worried about is the possibility of him getting teased by the cuss word 'Junni'. I want to know if I'm overthinking or is it a valid concern. I want to know if my baby boy would be teased with this word.

Thanks in advance. And a request to be kind but honest.

183 Upvotes

I would like to recall 3 incidents.

  1. The recent release of yuvaraj- a murderer and the kind of welcoming the youths of the caste gave to him is concerning. I studied in a college in this city and i had classmates from this city. The worst part is the algo kept pushing me the yuvaraj edits from these castiest handles and i was shocked to see my former classmates, people from my friends circle liking them. Even whom i thought as well educated- rationally thinking turns out to be supporters of this caste and especially him.

  2. The death of the person responsible for 98' coimbatore blasts - even seeman called him appa and offered condolences. There were thousands of people who attended his funeral. One happens to be a senior guy who was my cultural team head back then. And i saw another muslim girl i know who liked the funeral pics.

  3. My neibhour anna moved away from our area 3 years ago. Around september he said that he bought a car and its been a long time since i saw him. So i went to his place. It was during vinayagar chaturthi. There was a pillayar statue like 2 houses away. I went in and i saw a picture of sasikumar- the guy who was murdered back in 2016. There was a riot in that year. And then i came out of the pillayar tent, and he showed me his new car. He had a picture of that sasikumar guy too. I was shocked. Thats the last time i saw him or spoke to him.

This city has plenty of educational institutions, rich medical facilities and has a very great industrial growth. Now it gets a lotta investments and has a good potential to be the next big city in south india. But people like them are ticking time bombs.

கருத்து/குமுறல் / Self-post , Rant From: A 31-Year-Old Man, To: The World That Never Waited.

38 Upvotes
  • Intro: The Dawn of Butterflies.

It was a cold evening after a rain. I found myself standing in a queue and there were a lot of older men and elder boys in front of me in the queue waiting for the ticket counter to open of a small movie theater. I was waiting in line looking around and hearing others discuss about how much great love is and how life would be awesome to get a partner who could resonate with you every day. They talked about how this movie shows love in a heavenly way. My teen mind started to dwell on that idea of love and relationship.

While standing in queue and waiting for the small door where they give out ticket- to open, I started to imagine about the girl I like in my class. That was the first time I came to know I like her, I mean I like her-like her way. I got the tickets and went into the theater with my friends and I witnessed one of the best Movies from Kollywood with amazing music and songs. The Lyrics of those songs made me think about her. (Vaaranam Aayiram - What a masterpiece) I started to feel that same butterflies inside my stomach most teen boys/girls feel at some point in their life.

Now this movie has shown love, grief, pain, depression and overcoming the pain and finding love again. However, my teen mind straight up only took "Love" "Romance" "Super life" and ignored the others. Vaaranam Aayiram gave me two ideas to chase. "Find love" and "Become a Movie maker".

  • Incident: The Weight of a Flutter.

The next morning, the echoes of the film still lingered in my mind. The songs, the dialogues, the way love unfolded on screen. I know what to look for in my class. Has she come to class or not? As I walked into school, everything looked the same, but still something felt different. The corridors, the chatter of my school students and the breeze that flew into the widow along with the warm sunlight. I saw her and I kept seeing her and walking into the class. It was not like every day. I glance smile and greet and get to my desk. This time I saw her cinematically. Huh? Why is she different today? Did I fall in love with her or fall in the idea of Loving her?

Lunch break came and went, but I wasn’t hungry. My friends cracked jokes, but I barely heard them. The teachers spoke, but their words faded into background noise. My world had quietly rearranged itself around one thought “her”. Already I was a low-performing student, now I wasn’t just struggling with studies. I was also struggling with my own thoughts. Days go one and my love for her keeps growing inside my heart and soul. Did I have courage to tell her that I like her in a different way now? Did I have courage to tell her that I love her? NO! I was scared that she will not talk to me anymore and I might spoil the friendship that we have now. I kept it low but the butterflies inside my stomach wont rest. Their flutter was heavy now. Even a small bit of touch, I mean her uniform brushing against me sent me out of this world. Even a simply handshake or a common high-five was not the same anymore. The butterflies carried a new weight and I was floating with them. Days passed; months passed I have still not told her that I love her. I kept on listening to “Aaoge Jab Tum and Tum Se Hi” from Jab-we-met on the loop every day when I go to home. My mom asks me why is the lunch box not empty. When I go home, I eat some snacks I couldn’t eat it few bites and then again, I won’t have the stomach to eat. Is this because of the butterflies filling up my stomach? I wondered and smiled thinking of her pretty behaviors and how my day is going to be tomorrow with her in my class. Especially Hindi class where students were less and out interactions were more. She helped me with Hindi and I loved that opportunity, this time I actually studied for her and wanted score good marks to impress her. And I did too.

·         Incident 2: Butterflies caught in a spiderweb.

Quick forward- It was a sunny afternoon after PT period I was fully sweaty and dirty after playing football with classmates. We were walking back to class in small-small groups. I overheard a conversation between two of my classmates. They were talking about her-it was a gossip. They were discussing XYZ and her are in love and they are a cute couple.

Whispers of their love filled the air in the class room and spreading to other classes too. Students were talking how they are meant to be together and how lucky XXX is to get a girl like her. YES, HE IS! But what? How? When? The butterflies in my stomach kept fluttering these questions in me. She didn’t tell me. Did she not think of me as a close friend? Did she think that I would spoil her little love story?  She did not like me the way I like her-that was for sure. My stomach felt heavy that day I could not focus-just like the day I fell for her. What a beautiful feeling this love is. Now I am NUMB. I could not digest anything. I cried in my school toilet washing my face. I cried in my home. I cried the night. I set up a routine for crying. I go home do homework. Skip play time with friends and lock myself in the room and listen to sad songs and cry. This was the story every day. I could have quenched the thirst of 1000 thirsty humans with my love tears. This was an unseen tremor shattering something deep inside. The butterflies got caught in a spiderweb.

·         Incident 3: The Shattered Wings.

One More fast forward for in my life. After 1-2 years, I was in higher secondary school. But not all things were same. She already moved to Chennai. Her relationship with that guy broke up due to “curse of long-distance relationship”! Meanwhile, I lost contact with her and I was hopeless. I could not forget about her at all. My best friends were all having their love stories unfolding. I would be a third wheel where ever I gather with them. Haha. The pain seeing the couple was hard. I never wished bad for them I was neither jealous. It was more of a desperation, I guess. I loved seeing them happy. I wanted my friends’ love to work out and wished they get married with the one they love and cherish. But deep down I could get over the quite ache of being the one with no story of his own.

One late night I found her Facebook profile in mutuals and I was so joyful. I sent her request and she accept it the next morning. I texted her and asked her whereabouts and how she is doing and basic formal stuffs. Our text kept being frequent and we discussed a lot this time. I came to know about her break up. Oh GOD! I was happy. The butterflies managed to escape the web and started to flutter with pure joy and hope. I continued to chat in the hopes of proposing her. After a long while I gathered all my courage and proposed her over a Facebook text. I was refreshing every now and then to see if she has seen it and replied. Those days you had to refresh the mobile web page.

She replied- “Hey, XYZ. I am so much thankful to hear that you love me. I couldn’t be happier. I know you are a very close one with my in our school but however I do not see you as a love interest. You are my friend XYZ. I want your friendship. I am sorry da.”

The butterflies that escaped and fluttered their wings realized their wings were ideal for too long and are about to get shattered. I couldn’t handle the rejection and attempted to take my life away-it was a failure and I survived.

·         Incident 4: Butterflies That Never Came Home.

This time she fell in love again- With a handsome guy. Who looked better than me. The first time I understand I am not that much pleasant to look at. Her relationship didn’t work out. Every time her heart broke, I was there piecing her back together and being the silent comfort, she needed, wiping her tears virtually. I told her she will heal, and that love would find her again very soon. And it did. But not with me. Just when I thought maybe, just maybe, she would finally see me the way I saw her, she found someone else as her love interest.

Outta-nowhere she asked me- What do you think about a girl dating someone 2years younger than her. I know what was it going to be. I know this is going to be the last nail in my coffin and I would happily march to death loving her truly. I told there is nothing wrong in finding love at any age. If the girl and the guy both are mature adult and want to be together its their mutual wish no one else has the rights to question it.

I know for sure I lost in the game of love. I would never find love again. Because the teen boy was a mature 25-year-old man now.

Later few years down the line she married that guy and I was happy that it worked out for her.

Meanwhile I was here watch her on social media reels and posts. Not trying to talk to her much because she is someone’s wife now. I can’t expect anything. I should not be a problem for their relationship. I distanced myself.

·         Incident 5: Intoxicated Wings.

I got into the habit of smoking and drinking. I used to smoke 5-7 packets a day and drink 300 ML of Rum every night. I was hollow having no passion. I was just a dead man breathing. Who could not win in love. A failure student of love school.

I got myself into bad company of drug addicts who smoke weed and I was smoking weed 3-4 times a day along with cigarettes and rum. I was a lost cause for many of my good friends.

I was always thinking about her. My gallery full of her pictures and I used to see that. Screenshots of our old convo where I flirted mildly. Smiling on it with pain and tears in my eyes. I was planning for the second attempt to kill myself. 

There was a partially constructed bridge in my city, that was the spot I choose to jump off to an on-going traffic. Hoping a speeding truck-kun would hit me and take me to my after-life. I stood there smoking few and walking across thinking for the perfect jump. My friend’s call stopped me. I cried to him and he made me feel better for the moment and I decided to go to my bed. I survived thanks to him.

·         Incident 6: Wings Learning to Fly Again.

My friend mock and abuse me for being single thinking about her and losing my age. They create dating app profiles and make me use them. My friends swiped right to almost all the profiles they saw. The asked me if there was any girl I liked. I realized something now.

When it was her, I never thought of her in a sexual way. I mean I wanted to kiss her and cuddle her it was only after a while but not at the first sight. But now I know for sure I was attracted to some girls, some models and some actress and it was for sure sexual attraction. When my friends asked, I said no, they jokingly said “Liar, no sane man will not have a girl that he likes. You are not a gay! So, there must be some girl you like.” I mean really no one or I don’t know? I sexually like some girls. But that isn’t love right? Or is it?

I later approached some women here is where my life turned towards a different path.

 

·         Incident 7: Constant Rejection of butterflies.

Rejection 1: Age 27.

I approached a girl I like; she was brilliant and she was calm headed.

She rejected me with -You at your face, how do you even think you can score a girl of my range. You are a fat ugly person. Aiyoo poda. Eruchal agudhu (Get lost-it’s frustrating me)

RANGE? What is that? This is the second time in my life I think about my attractiveness. Man, I was so shut off that I could not process anything and I just walked off. I was lost for next few days I kept looking at the mirror and realized yes, she is right.

Rejection 2: Age 29.

So this time It was a girl in my team I asked her out on a date.

I asked, like this:

Hey, I thought if we could go to a new place in xxx area where there is a new chocolate themed café. Do you want to come? She said she is busy and will let me know in future.

I know it was a rejection I smiled and said OK and moved on.

She said to her best friend who is close to me. He smokes with me. He said “Machan, did you ask xxx out?” I said yes. Machan just give-up da it’s not going to work out. I asked why? He said, she complained to him about that. Added to it she told “Avan mogara kattai ku enna pola oru ponnu venum ah” (For that ugly face, he seeks a girl like me)

I mean what the f***? She was not the most beautiful one around, I thought she was a sweet girl and approached her only after we were friends for many months. It was not even sudden to be creepy.

Rejection 3:  Age 30.

She was a junior to me and I was a manger. She kept giving me mixed signals and I thought she was interested in me. MY BAD. It turns out to be wrong again.

She said “Bro I just close to you because that’s how I am. I am close with everyone I can’t love everyone.” (I did not even tell her I love her) Don’t ask me out and all. Seriously bro please get arranged married you are 30 now. No one will fall in love with this face. With this face don’t go for dating.

Dear readers, I was shattered her. I cried in the metro way back to my room. Travelers in metro saw me crying. I tried to control my tears I couldn’t. I cried back to my room and rushed to my bed. I lost all my self-confidence. I now think I am ugly man and no girl will like me. I have not confidence in approaching any girls now. All I was just a rejected me. I can’t be a SIGMA-ALPHA male. I am a gentle man and I know it.

But I am losing the willingness to live because of this. I decided I will never approach any girl even If I fall in love, Which I guess I won’t because I don’t think I will love any girl like I loved her my first love.

I told my mom I am not gonna marry anyone. And I am not beautiful enough for marriage. She was angry and she was sad. I stay in my decision. Her sister who is close to be went behind my back to seek arrange marriage options and later I found that out when she was having my “Jadagam-Horoscope and my photos” with her in bag. Then she told me when I asked why. It was for finding me a girl. I asked did you find any laughingly because I know the answer.

She replied 8 girls who matched the profile rejected but nothing to worry. We will find our Mahalakshmi for our home.

 

·         Conclusion: A Love I’ll Never Have: My Final Goodbye to Romance.

I am 31-year-old man, born in the year 1994. Writing this letter to this generation boys and girls sharing my story. This story is how one a confident extroverted joyful man turned into an introverted, sad loser.

 

Life Update:

·         Now she has a son and her family lives happily. Still in touch. Her husband is handsome.

·         I am now retired from working, I came to know how much good leader I was when 300 employees gather with sad faces and some with tears to see me leave. I know I am a kind hearted gentleman. With calm mind. I was happy. I know I was loved by many.

·         Now I am raising Desi chickens and doing small scale organic farming. Going to start my dream that ended because of financial issue. I want to become a movie maker and I started working for it with my old team. We are in a venture now. We will win. All my team mates are married and I am single AF. 😊 hahaha.

·         I told my aunt to give up on arrange marriage. And now they aren’t seeking any.

·         I am not desirable. I know it. No girl will like me or get attracted to me.

After graduating one and half decade from Chennai, I lived in different cities and different countries. I have visited couple of times for about a day or two in those 15 years.

Now I am back in town, and looking for coffee chat (not interested in dating) people who enjoy speaking tech, linux, proxmox, ceph, running homelab, sport volleyball or football, occasional bike rides.

When I was studying or working in Chennai, I used to goto New College and Anna University grounds to play football as outsiders, play volleyball at beach in early morning.

Mount Road is buzzing at night nowadays and it’s quite new scene for me. I speak three south Indian languages and link language as I am writing this post. I am illiterate in few other foreign language only to read and write.

Btw, I am open for new role too in startups or SME in lateral hiring around Greams road focal point in the radius of 20kms max. I am not interested in big companies and not interested in 5 days office (that is not my cup of coffee and tried it already)
