Go, check out @Fine_Whining’s new tumblr, where she illustrates her favourite tweets! http://t.co/vCCg8KIJ[+]
One of her finest ideas yet!

@Fine_Whining Explain.
TIL that typing “length of any movie” in Google gives it running time. I like.
@nimitnshah Yes… And now the refreshing rain. :)
Now patiently waiting under the gloomy clouds for it to pour. Else I might have to drive to parts of the city where it is!
Usually try to refrain from weather tweets, but the drops have just started here in North B’lore. The smell of wet mud slowly rising.
In less than a day, two surprise mails. I could get used to this. Thank you @garethhoover and @sheriesm! http://t.co/4M3PTto0
@Fine_Whining Aye, everything seems to be getting complex for you. Break it down.
Digging up good old british radio shows in 2012. Episodes of Just A Minute has had me laughing every night this week.

@Fine_Whining why you doing this challenge again?
@mammothbrain Page turners is next to Lakeview on MG road. Its a relatively new bookstore and the other place is Urban Solace.
@mammothbrain There is the Bard room at Page turners. And at one more place, I forget the name…
@ramyaprakash oh I remember those days! And the one after that… Forgot the name. Don’t think there has been a more popular Kannada soap.:)

@purisubzi Where was this?
@gursartaj Ouch. That must have hurt.
@gursartaj Well if you’re looking to get back to using it, a prime lens can teach you a lot. This is usually the first lens people buy.
@gursartaj 5800/- Interested? :)

Anyone looking to invest in a Canon 50mm prime, f/1.8 lens + UV filter? Only a couple of months old in excellent condition. #selling
@keeperofthekeys :) cool.
@keeperofthekeys No problem. :) Tried to find it online and then something else came up anyway.
@brainpicker or as Stefan Sagmiester says http://t.co/CdBT4CSi[+] @swissmiss
@keeperofthekeys yeah wouldn’t mind of its close by my place. Do you have a link to the event?
@keeperofthekeys where in Bangalore?
@Fine_Whining Hahaha!
@pricelessjunk Happy Birthday Priya! Welcome to the over 20 age group. or the +1 as you newbies might call it. :-)

Bloody brilliant! RT @miranj: Holy smokes! Inception Explained: http://t.co/HhuPMDUH[+]
@pricelessjunk Oh why? I’m quite well versed with those, and they’re not a good thing to make a habit of.

@rungtaakki Ah okay. They should put him on though on some show.
@erm_wat Asked cause his Dp is with the Stig.
@erm_wat Did Jake come on a Top Gear episode? I’d want to see that episode.
@ishan_srivastav Hey Ishan, you interested in buying a 1.8? I’m looking to sell mine.Its just a few months old, in perfectly good condition.
@AuteurMark Hey, how old is the MBP? What’s it selling at?
Daylight Savings Time logic: http://t.co/E3qqoTTj[+]
@lokallobaat We need more people there. Though wish they’d make the categories more easier. Can never easily find my own/others profile.
@ishan_srivastav There’s nothing like using a prime. The 1.8 is something you will soon appreciate and want, and won’t get in the 18-55.
Closing tabs makes me happy.

@gursartaj Thanks, and so it is https://t.co/Vj09zuTv[+]
@gonsalves_r Thanks for the links. Interesting stuff.
@gonsalves_r Thanks! Reminds me, must make a visit to Painted Platters. Been ages. HBB has been a nice new discovery too.
@Fine_Whining We must go try out some. Been to Secret Garden Café? They’re open only for lunch.
But for today, the tried and tested won. There was only one winner for the ‘outsider’.@Fine_Whining made her customary visit to Cornerhouse.
Lots of dessert options have popped up from the twitterverse today. Thank you all good folks. Hope to try some out this week.
@munimkazia Thanks! Might try that place out.
@ap00rv Oh nice. Yeah was looking at their menu.. there aren’t many sundae places that I’ve come across in the city.
@ap00rv Looks perfect for ice creams. Thanks!
@munimkazia Is this the one at the end of Brigades? next to Kanti Sweets?
@pricelessjunk Haha! Was just looking up places there.
Looking for interesting dessert places in Bangalore. Any suggestions?
@souvikdg We’re ready for day break. It beats burning the midnight oil. @pandorazjukebox
Have fun on your excursion!

@eclairsk3 Oh. But you’re sure seem to be having fun in the big city. :-)
Sure did. Had to sleep it out the entire next day.
Apparently the Chumbak services are faster than expected. Laptop sleeve has arrived! Thanks @Fine_Whining! Love it. :) http://t.co/1dvxpbiO
@keeperofthekeys Yup a midnight cake. :)
@WhispersChinese :-) Photo is still due I know…
@nimitnshah Thanks Nimit! :-)
@eclairsk3 Thanks Ashu! :) Coming down anytime soon?
@keeperofthekeys Thanks a lot Nidhi! =) My friends actually surprised me with a cake last night, had the remaining this morning. :)
@souvikdg We’ll give it to you this time, Delhi. But we trust you’ll will race ahead soon enough. @pricelessjunk @keeperofthekeys
@pricelessjunk Dry heat at that too! :(
@pricelessjunk Thanks Priya! I see we share the same birth date. ;P
@lokallobaat Thanks again Sumit!
@rakeshrach Thanks Rakesh! Add to it, the Sunday morning quiet and calm. Good start indeed. :)
@RohithNair Thanks Rohith! :-)

@nimitnshah It was nice. Just that it was in a half-open space ambience. Iterating, Asad Khan’s performance topped the event.
Such a nice touch to send a cc of your enquiry when made via the @miranjdesign website. Another reason to hire them for your next project.
@nimitnshah Yes, thanks to you and @rungta’s links.
And most of today has gone in shifting between songs of Roja, Bombay and Thiruda Thiruda. Also, two of those movies remain open. :S
So Classic Incantations was held at Palace grounds, not the most ideal setting. But the highlight of the night was Asad Khan on the sitar.
@mammothbrain A picnic + kite flying day out at a park.
So one free pass for tonights Classic Incantations remains. http://t.co/EqqDIFuo[+] Anyone want it?
Today’s little joy comes from Apple Chancery and what it’s done to my work.

@shalynee Awesome. Freelancing as?
@Prakhya Haha! same to same. America America before that. :-) If they made more movies like that I’d have watched.
@Prakhya So true. The last, that too after so many years, had been Mungara male. Don’t even know who acts in the movies these days.
@shalynee oh nice! When’s the move?
@gonsalves_r Looks like you’re enjoying Bombay city as well. :) Such lovely Bangalore weather though.

Who also incidentally was the first stranger who’s identified me as a South Indian. Yay! But also asked if I was from Madras. :S

Off to the airport. Missed this feeling of forgetting something. 11 days to soak in Mumbai and its smog.
@keeperofthekeys I like! I’m in. I’ll be away for 10 days, so could I join somewhere towards the middle or end of the chain? :-)
@keeperofthekeys Sounds interesting. I’m all ears. :)
@pricelessjunk Oh okay.

@oddysee Thanks! Had tried Lightroom before and hadn’t seen much of a difference. But LR does seem like the better option for what I need.
