Day 23 - I am leaving the group

It so happened that in one of my WhatsApp groups, a few of us had been posting food pictures like what we ate, what me made and what we texperimented. We had all sorts of pictures from Dalgona coffee, homemade pani puri, momos, cakes, pizzas, burgers, fries, lemon rice, bisibelebath, curd rice, Biriyanis to more. It did not happen only in this group alone, but in other groups and also in statuses too. The funniest part was when I saw status from people posting home made food photos mentioning as “Today’s special”. I guess this is the 4th most used word after Corona, Dalgona and Zoom. Coming back to the group that I was talking about, a funny conversation ensued a few days back. While the usual what are you doing ? Come let’s play Ludo online messages were found on, there was food photos started to be posted in the group. I too was soon posting all homemade food from breakfast, lunch and dinner. After a couple of days it was only the 3 of us who were posting photos and a very minimal conversations happening in the group. All of a sudden there was a revolt in the group by few people and this is how the conversation went. 

The names of the people in the conversation are anonymous but the messages are real, so let’s call them person 1, 2 and 3.

“I am leaving the group” - 1

“Enough is enough, they are teasing us too much” - 3

“They are playing in partnership and posting pictures” - 1

“I can’t even do anything but to sit and watch those photos" - 1

“Come bro, we will boycott and leave the group” - 2

“They are posting everything even the making photos also” - 3

I replied immediately out of intuition, “You also post your food pic, so you are less pissed off” and added a Smiley at the end.

“You will get it from me Ravvvul” - 1

“Sure, what are you cooking?” - Me

After this a few conversation did not happen about the food and everyone were either forwarding some videos in the group. It was night and I saw a lot of unread messages and thought of reading them before I went to sleep and I was happy and joyful to see a picthere of a food that my friend had finally decided to post and be a part of the conversation. It was Masala Dosae with chutney. I laughed heartily and went to sleep feeling content.

Signing off for today
