also love how the bhaiyya kabab house in model town started the bite size kebab trend, and put up a picture of the baba jee who pioneered it, and now the entire market is just full of bhaiyya kebab shops with eerily similar looking baba jees

I like when Pakistani restaurants put a photo of the uncle ji who started the place 3 decades ago on their board outside and the photo always looks like a mugshot and it’s never them smiling or looking welcoming in any way

Writing taught me that clarity is an act of courage. It's easy to stay vague. Vague is safe. Vague doesn't commit to anything.

Mentally healthy people are often delusionally optimistic.

If you want a rare life, you have to be delusional. Doubt can enter your mind, and it can sound reasonable, but if you entertain it too much it will slowly drag you down into stagnation. I'd rather reap the lesson from massive failure than do nothing because it's not "realistic."
