That was amazing!! Just wish we got to see the final image of the BIL on the veranda, broken and surrounded by 23 bags of rice

    This was the most compelling thing I've ever read

    It’s not the same, but this all reminds me of ‘A House for Mister Biswas,’ which one reviewer on Goodreads describes as “more than 600 pages filled with the bickering, moans and wailing of a large Indo-Trinidadian family.”

    I love stories like this. Humans are so funny.

    That was hilarious, thank you! I must admit I'm morbidly curious as to how one orders a truck of rice by mistake...

    Massive success tbh. Imagine Havin to deal with 700 fucking bags of rice. Those sacks also looks to be 50 kg wholesale sacks meant for ration shops and godowns so thats likely 35 fucking TONS of rice.

    EDIT: They're actually 100 kg sacks, so 70 tons.

    "Final terms: 23 bags, one bottle Old Monk, one bottle scotch*. Everyone is exhausted"

    The whole point of this set of twitter pic conversations was the negotiation to not have to buy the whole lorry worth.

    "We are all here"

    Sounds like a Palahniuk novel.

    Can you recommend one for a first time Palahniuk reader?

    Edit: well shit, so far no consensus :)

    Wow. Do they do truck-loads of rice as Cash on Delivery there? If he didn't pre-pay, can he just refuse delivery and not pay? No idea what verbal contract laws are in place.

    This would make a hell of a 90 minute Netflix movie.

    Yeah I'd love to know the conclusion of the story but when that popped up I immediately didn't care anymore. Fuck Tumblr.
