Hello guys, welcome back to my blog. Today I am sharing funny controversial topics, but with a full Indian touch. If your family group goes silent after the good morning flowers, these funny controversial topics will wake everybody up in two minutes.
I got this idea at home only. One Sunday my sister said dal is basically soup, and lunch stopped right there. Mummy was offended, papa asked for a vote and I kept eating quietly. Nobody was angry, but everybody was fighting. That is the best kind of fight, if you ask me.
People on Reddit fight about hot dogs and cereal. Fine, but we don’t eat that every day. So I took the best silly debates from Reddit and made them desi. Then I wrote many more of my own, on food, family, weddings, office, cricket and Bollywood.
In total you get 136 topics, plus some tables with real fights from Indian Reddit and a few funny facts. I have kept religion, caste and politics fully out of this list. We are here to laugh and then eat together, not to break the family group.
Funny Controversial Topics From Reddit, Made Desi
I started on Reddit, because people there can fight about anything. When one AskReddit user asked about life’s great debates, the thread got more then 2,000 replies in just five hours, as per Bustle. Brownie edges, Coke or Pepsi, even which way the toilet roll should hang, everything was on the table.
The formula is simple. Take one small daily thing, ask one silly question and watch grown people get serious. So I took 15 fights from Reddit, from threads like this one on r/AskReddit, and gave each one a desi version. These are topics 1 to 15 of my list.
| No. | What Reddit Fights About | Where | My Desi Version |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Is a hot dog a sandwich? | r/AskReddit | Is vada pav a burger or a sandwich? |
| 2 | Is cereal soup? | r/AskReddit | Is dal just a soup we eat with rice? |
| 3 | The correct way to eat Oreos | r/Debate | How many seconds can a Parle-G stay in chai? |
| 4 | Is water wet? | r/AskReddit | Is matka water really cold, or only less hot? |
| 5 | Taking toast out of the toaster | r/teenagers | Should a roti go directly on the gas flame? |
| 6 | The proper colour of pancakes | r/AskReddit | What is the proper colour of a dosa, golden or dark brown? |
| 7 | BTS or One Direction? | r/Debate | BTS or Punjabi pop: what should play at the college fest? |
| 8 | Are Disney princesses good role models? | r/Debate | Is Raj from DDLJ a good role model or a red flag? |
| 9 | Should superheroes wear capes? | r/Debate | Shaktimaan or Krrish: who has the better costume? |
| 10 | Kirkin’ hard or hardly kirkin’? | r/AskReddit | Studying hard or hardly studying? |
| 11 | If you add enough ranch, does a salad become cereal? | r/entp | If you add enough cheese to a dosa, does it become a pizza? |
| 12 | The Oxford comma | r/AskReddit | Is “prepone” a real English word? |
| 13 | Hot dogs are tacos | r/AskReddit | Is a folded dosa just an Indian taco? |
| 14 | Pop-Tarts are ravioli | r/AskReddit | Is a samosa just fried ravioli? |
| 15 | Cake or pie? | r/AskReddit | Gulab jamun or jalebi? |
If you ask me, number 2 is the most dangerous one here, because I have seen it stop a Sunday lunch. Number 3 is also very serious. One second extra and half of your biscuit is gone forever at the bottom of the cup.
Real Fights Happening on Indian Reddit
Indian Reddit does not need my help to start a fight. These ones became so big that news sites wrote about them, so I put them in one table for you. Pick any row and your group is busy for one hour.
| The Fight | What Happened | Where I Read It |
|---|---|---|
| Delhi or Mumbai? | A man from Delhi NCR lived in Mumbai for a few months. He said he was quoted ₹25k for a very small single-sharing room, while his NCR friends pay ₹12k to ₹15k for a much bigger place. Some Mumbai people also agreed with him. | Free Press Journal, Jan 2026 |
| Is Mumbai overrated? | A Reddit user from Ahmedabad went to Mumbai for a three-month internship. They said tiny rooms cost 30k and the city was tiring to even look at. They did like Marine Drive. | India TV, May 2026 |
| Is Bengaluru the costliest city? | One user said ₹50,000 to ₹60,000 a month is not enough for a small family there. The post got over 100 comments, and one person said Gurgaon is costlier. | OneIndia, Apr 2025 |
| Bengaluru or Hyderabad? | A techie spent five months in Hyderabad. He gave Bengaluru the better weather, and gave Hyderabad the better food, roads and traffic handling. | Siasat, Jun 2026 |
| Best biryani in Mumbai? | A man from Lucknow asked on r/mumbai where to find good biryani. Some users told him he will never match Lucknow. | Free Press Journal, Apr 2024 |
| Should samosa be called “rissole”? | A school gave English names to Indian food for a quiz. Golgappa became waterball and gulab jamun became rose water berry. The post got over 500 upvotes. | ScoopWhoop |
| Should a boss tell you to log off? | An employee said his boss asks him to log off at 7 pm because it is getting late. Some users jokingly asked if his company has any openings. | Business Standard, Aug 2025 |
The Bengaluru one I found the most funny. That user was shocked that a Mumbai auto took only ₹30 for 2 km, and then somebody from Gurgaon came and said sorry, we are costlier. Everybody wants to win the award for most expensive city. My papa says this is the only competition where the winner has lost.
Food Format Fights (Topics 16 to 26)
This is the Indian version of “is a hot dog a sandwich”. The food is simple, but the logic gets very serious. I keep these for family dinners, because everybody at the table is already an expert.
16. Is pani puri a soup in a crispy bowl? You get spicy liquid inside a bowl you can eat. If that is not soup, then what is it?
17. Is rasam a soup or a drink? I have seen people finish it from a steel glass after lunch, so I vote drink.
18. Is a kathi roll a wrap or a burrito? Say this in Kolkata and they will say it is neither, and honestly they are right.
19. Is uttapam just an Indian pizza? It has a base, it has toppings, and nobody asked Italy.
20. Is khichdi just cheap risotto? At home it is sick food. In a fancy restaurant with an Italian name, it is one day’s salary.
21. Is Maggi a full meal or only a snack? For college students it is dinner. For mummy it is not even food.
22. Is restaurant paneer butter masala a main dish or a dessert? Some gravies now have more sugar then my chai.
23. Is veg biryani real biryani? One side says it is pulao with good marketing. The other side will leave your group.
24. Is potato in biryani a crime or a blessing? Kolkata biryani fans say the aloo is the best part. Hyderabad biryani fans may stop talking to you.
25. Is Indian Chinese more Indian or more Chinese? I don’t think anybody in China has met our Gobi Manchurian.
26. Is Hajmola a candy or a medicine? We ate it like candy in school, but it is sold as a digestive.
If you ask me, number 23 is the most dangerous one in this group. Don’t start it if you need a ride home from the same people.
Chai, Snacks and Kitchen Wars (Topics 27 to 37)
These ones start small. Somebody says one word about chai, and ten minutes later nobody is drinking it because everybody is busy talking.
27. Chai or filter coffee? Start this one only if you have nowhere to go for the next two hours.
28. In chai, does the milk go first or the water? My mummy and my sister have been on different sides of this for years.
29. Is cutting chai better than a full cup? Half the glass, full the satisfaction. Or is it only an excuse to drink five times?
30. Is green tea a drink or a punishment? I tried it for one week. Then I went back to real chai.
31. Samosa or kachori: who is the real king? Everybody has a side, and nobody has ever changed it.
32. Should free sukha puri after pani puri be a legal right? If bhaiya does not give it, I feel cheated for the full day.
33. Is ketchup on samosa okay? Green chutney people look at ketchup people like they saw a crime.
34. Is eating dosa with a fork and knife a crime? Your hand is free of cost and it works better.
35. Does food really taste better when you eat with your hand? My papa says a spoon is only for soup and for guests.
36. Alphonso or Kesar: who is the real king of mangoes? Maharashtra and Gujarat both have an answer, and nobody is shy about it.
37. Is pineapple in raita okay? The world fights about pineapple on pizza. We quietly put it in raita and nobody said anything.
I think number 28 has no winner, because both sides still make good chai. Number 32 I take very seriously. In my house we don’t waste anything, and that free puri is already paid for in my mind.
Everyday Desi Home Wars (Topics 38 to 48)
In my house nothing gets thrown away. Old paint dabba becomes a bucket, and old bucket becomes a flower pot. So I know every small home fight on this list very well.
38. Is the ice cream box with frozen matar inside the biggest betrayal of childhood? You open it with full hope. Then you see peas.
39. Should every house keep one big bag full of small bags? Mummy says we need them. Nobody has ever reached the bottom ones.
40. Should the best plates stay locked for guests only? We eat in old steel all year, and the glass set comes out for someone who stays 20 minutes.
41. Should the plastic cover stay on the TV remote forever? Papa says it keeps the remote new. New for what?
42. AC at 24 or AC at 18? Papa is on team 24 and he also has the remote, so this debate is only for fun.
43. Should the geyser go off after five minutes? In my house you get one bucket of hot water and one free lecture on the electricity bill.
44. Is a wet towel on the bed a bigger crime than theft? Ask any mummy.
45. Can you return the neighbour’s dabba empty? Aunty sent halwa, so now something has to go back. Nobody wrote this rule, but everybody knows it.
46. Is “mummy’s cooking is best” a fact or only an opinion? Say “opinion” out loud and see who makes your dinner.
47. Is the Sunday 2 pm nap a basic right? Papa works the full week, so nobody talks loudly after lunch on Sunday.
48. Mug, jet spray or toilet paper? Reddit fights over which way the toilet roll should hang. In India we are still fighting about whether the roll should exist.
Honestly, number 40 hurts me the most. Good plates should be used by the people who wash them. Number 45 I fully support though, because that is how neighbours stay neighbours.
Family, Relatives and WhatsApp Groups (Topics 49 to 60)
The best place for these is a family function, when all the uncles have finished eating and nobody wants to leave. Keep it about habits, not about any one person in the room.
49. Is Sharma ji’s son a real person? Nobody has seen him, but he has beaten all of us in every exam.
50. Who are the “log” in “log kya kahenge”? (What will people say?) Has anybody ever met these people?
51. If a relative asks your salary, can you ask theirs? I want to try this once, but I am not that brave.
52. Should relatives pay a fine for asking “shaadi kab karoge”? (When will you marry?) At ₹100 per question, my wedding is already paid for.
53. Who is the real boss of the house, mummy or papa? Papa thinks it is a close fight. It is not.
54. Should “hamare zamane mein” speeches have a time limit? (In our time…) Two minutes per uncle, same as a debate.
55. Is the eldest child just an unpaid manager? My elder sister says yes. I say she enjoys it.
56. Should good morning flower photos be banned from family groups? My phone gets more flowers before 7 am then a wedding hall.
57. Can haldi doodh and Vicks fix every problem? In my house the answer is yes, until the doctor says no.
58. Is “beta, khana kha liya?” the Indian way to say I love you? (Son, did you eat?) I think yes. Nobody in my house has said the other words out loud.
59. Is Diwali safai a festival or a full body workout? Mummy finds dust in places the builder forgot.
60. Is soan papdi the most re-gifted sweet in India? The same box may have seen five houses by now.
Number 58 is my favourite here, because it is funny and true. Nobody ever wins it, and that is fine. And in Diwali season, number 60 becomes very useful.
Wedding Wars (Topics 61 to 71)
An Indian wedding is the best place for a debate. You are sitting for four hours, the food is late and nobody has anything to do. Just please don’t start these near the bride’s mother.
61. What is the right shagun now, ₹101, ₹501 or ₹1,100? And why is that one extra rupee so important?
62. Is a wedding without a pani puri counter even a wedding? I judge the whole family by this one counter.
63. Should the joota chupai rate be fixed before the wedding? (The game where the bride’s side hides the groom’s shoes.) The bargaining is harder than any business deal.
64. Is nagin dance compulsory in every baraat? There is always one chachu who has been ready since morning.
65. Why don’t Indian weddings use RSVP? Food is made for 500, then 800 people come, and somehow it does not finish.
66. Is it rude to stand near the buffet before it opens? I call it planning.
67. Is a pre-wedding shoot really needed? You met three months ago, and now you are running in a mustard field.
68. Should a DJ be allowed to play one song three times? The uncles will dance all three times, so maybe yes.
69. Is a marriage biodata just a CV with a horoscope? Height, salary, hobbies. Only the LinkedIn link is missing.
70. Love marriage or arranged marriage: which one has more drama? Both have enough, trust me.
71. Is taking a loan for a big wedding smart or foolish? One day of party and five years of EMI.
If you ask me, number 71 is the only serious one here. In my house the rule is simple. If you can’t pay for it, invite less people. Papa’s wedding had 80 guests and he says the food was better because of it.
Office and College Fights (Topics 72 to 84)
These are perfect for the chai break or the college canteen. Indian offices don’t need a comedy show, guys. One complaint mail can become a meme for years, and I wrote that full story in my Cognizant fart email post.
72. Is “kindly do the needful” proper English? My whole office says it, and nobody knows who needs what.
73. Should bosses be banned from calling after 7 pm? That one Reddit user’s boss tells him to log off at 7 pm. The rest of us can only dream.
74. “Sir” or first name? New startups want first names. My tongue refuses.
75. Is work from home real work? Some people say yes, with a shirt on top and shorts below.
76. Should a chai break count as a meeting? All the real decisions happen there only.
77. Is a 90-day notice period just kidnapping with a salary? You resign in August and leave in November.
78. Dry fruit box or Diwali bonus? The box is nice, but it can’t pay the electricity bill.
79. Home tiffin or office canteen? Tiffin wins on taste. Canteen wins on the day mummy is angry with you.
80. Do backbenchers do better in life than toppers? 3 Idiots has a lot to answer for.
81. Should 75% attendance be compulsory? Every college has one student who has calculated exactly how many classes he can skip.
82. Should an out-of-syllabus question give free marks? If it was not taught, then why should I lose marks for it?
83. Is group study real study? Four people, one book and two hours of gossip.
84. Should canteen udhaar be a student right? Bhaiya’s notebook knows more about your life then your parents do.
My vote goes to number 76. A problem that takes one hour in the meeting room gets solved in ten minutes at the chai stall. I have seen this many times, and I think every boss knows it also.
City vs City and Road Wars (Topics 85 to 98)
This is the favourite sport of Indian Reddit, as you saw in my table above. One rule from my side. Fight about rent, traffic, weather and food, but don’t make it about the people of any city. That is when it stops being funny.
85. Delhi or Mumbai: which city is better to live in? Rent, trains, air, sea. Nobody has ever won this one.
86. Is Bengaluru really India’s most expensive city? One Reddit user says yes, and then Gurgaon raises its hand.
87. Bengaluru or Hyderabad: which tech city wins? Better weather or better biryani. Honestly, that is the full debate.
88. Lucknow, Hyderabad or Kolkata: who makes the best biryani? Order all three and call it research.
89. Pani puri, golgappa or puchka: which name is correct? Same food, three names. That school’s “waterball” is not invited.
90. Rasgulla: does it belong to Bengal or Odisha? Both states have a GI tag now, and the fight is still on.
91. Vada pav or chole bhature: which is the better street food? One you eat while running. The other one needs a nap after.
92. Should there be sugar in dal? Some homes add a little jaggery and some homes treat that like a crime.
93. Should sambar be sweet? Karnataka style has some sweetness and Chennai style does not. Neither side is going to change.
94. Bengaluru traffic or Mumbai local: which one hurts more? One takes your time. The other takes your shirt button.
95. Who gives better directions, Google Maps or the local paanwala? Maps does not know the gully is closed for a wedding.
96. Is honking a language in India? One short honk means hello. One long honk means your family is now involved.
97. Is the auto meter only for decoration? In many cities it is only there to look nice.
98. Has any friends’ Goa plan ever really happened? Four people, one WhatsApp group, zero tickets.
Number 98 is the saddest one on this list, if you ask me. My gang has been “going to Goa” for years. The group is still active, but the only trip we have taken is to the same chai stall.
Bollywood, Cricket and TV Fights (Topics 99 to 112)
These can end a friendship for one full day. I have kept the fights about films, fans and stories only. Nobody here is insulting any actor or player, because we all still want to watch them on Friday.
99. SRK fans or Salman fans: who is louder on first day first show? Carry earplugs either way.
100. Hera Pheri or Andaz Apna Apna: which is the funniest Hindi film? I can quote both, and so can your papa.
101. Is Kabir Singh a love story or a warning? Half of your group will not talk to the other half.
102. Is Poo from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham the best Bollywood character ever? Nobody else can walk in with that much attitude.
103. Should saas-bahu serials have a limit on dramatic zooms? One sad look, three zooms and twenty seconds of thunder.
104. Is Bigg Boss real or fully scripted? Mummy says it is all fake, and she has not missed one episode.
105. Is Sooryavansham on TV a national tradition? My family can say the next line before the actor does.
106. South films or Bollywood: who does masala better? Dubbed movies on TV started this fight years ago.
107. Can Chacha Chaudhary’s brain beat AI? His brain works faster than a computer, so what will your chatbot do?
108. Is Shinchan a bad influence on kids? Every parent says yes. Every kid says who cares.
109. Dhoni or Kohli: who is the better captain? Keep two plates of samosa and one referee ready.
110. Is a Test match a sport or a five-day nap? Papa says it is real cricket. He sleeps through most of it.
111. Should “one tip one hand” become an official cricket rule? It has saved more gully matches than any umpire.
112. In gully cricket, is the bat owner the real captain? He can’t be out, because if he is out, the match is over.
Number 112 is the truest thing on this list. My papa says the one who owns the tools decides how the job gets done. I think he learned that in gully cricket.
Silly Philosophy and Hypotheticals (Topics 113 to 124)
These are for late night, when the chai is finished and nobody wants to go home. None of them has a right answer, and that is why people fight so hard. If you like this style, my funny would you rather questions post has many more.
113. Which came first, the traffic jam or the horn? Nobody knows, but both are still here.
114. If a train comes on time, did it really happen? Nobody will believe you anyway.
115. If you add enough chaat masala to fruit, is it a chaat? I say yes, and I will not take questions.
116. Would you fight one buffalo-sized mosquito or 100 mosquito-sized buffaloes? This is the old horse-sized duck question, made for Indian summers.
117. Should a bhoot in an old haveli pay rent? 200 years of free stay is too much.
118. Would you give up chai for one year or mobile data for one month? I need more time to answer this.
119. At what age does “bhaiya” become “uncle”? The first time a child calls you uncle, you go home and check the mirror.
120. At what age does “didi” become “aunty”? Get this wrong one time and you will remember it for life.
121. Is “bas 5 minute” a lie or a way of life? If your friend says he is 5 minutes away, he has not left the house.
122. Is every photocopy a Xerox and every water bottle a Bisleri? I have asked for a Bisleri and got another brand, and nobody said anything.
123. Is “out of station” proper English? Everybody in India gets it. Nobody outside does.
124. Is a full stop in WhatsApp a sign of anger? “Ok” is fine. “Ok.” means you are in trouble.
I like number 119 the most, because it comes for all of us. A small kid in my society called me uncle last year. I told him I am still young, and he asked my age, and that was the end of the debate.
Riskier but Comedic Sparks (Topics 125 to 136)
Now the dangerous ones. They are still funny, but use them only with people who know you well. If somebody gets really hurt, just say sorry and order some food.
125. Is paneer overrated? Say this at a wedding and you will eat alone.
126. Is biryani overrated? Swiggy’s numbers are against you, as you will see in the next section.
127. Is butter chicken overrated? You will need a helmet for this one.
128. Is idli boring? Fans say it is light and healthy. Haters say it is steamed nothing.
129. Is upma the most hated breakfast in India? I ate it all through school and I am still not over it.
130. Is a mumma’s boy a red flag? My mummy reads my blog, so I have no comments.
131. Why are landlords more scared of bachelors than ghosts? At least a ghost does not call his friends over.
132. Is free dhaniya from the sabziwala a birthright? Yes. Next question.
133. Is paying ₹10 by UPI embarrassing? The chai wala does not care, but you still feel small.
134. Is the fight to pay the restaurant bill real or only acting? Watch how slowly both uncles reach for their wallets.
135. Is Hinglish killing Hindi and English both? Yaar, honestly, I can’t say. Look at this blog.
136. Joint family or nuclear family: who eats better? One has more food. The other has less fighting about it.
Number 134 is my favourite topic of the full list. I have seen two grown men hold one bill for ten minutes, and in the end it was split anyway. So that is 136 topics, guys, and I hope your family still talks to you.
Funny Facts Behind These Fights
Some of these silly fights have real facts behind them. I checked a few, so you can win your next argument, or at least sound like you did.
| The Fight | The Fact | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Is vada pav a sandwich? (No. 1) | TasteAtlas ranked it 26th on its world sandwich list in July 2025. The same news report says it is not really a sandwich. | Free Press Journal |
| Is “prepone” real English? (No. 12) | Yes. The Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary lists it and marks it Indian English, informal. | Oxford Learner’s Dictionaries |
| Is veg biryani real? (No. 23) | In 2023, Swiggy saw one veg biryani for every 5.5 chicken biryanis. | Business Standard |
| Do Indian offices work too much? (No. 73) | ILO data says Indian workers averaged 45.7 hours a week in 2024, and 51% worked 49 hours or more. | Business Standard |
| Rasgulla: Bengal or Odisha? (No. 90) | West Bengal got a GI tag for its version in November 2017, and Odisha got one for its version in July 2019. The tags cover two versions of the sweet. They don’t say who made it first. | Business Today |
| Is biryani overrated? (No. 126) | Swiggy says biryani was its most ordered dish for the 10th year in a row in 2025, with 93 million orders. | Storyboard18 |
| Is “please revert” proper English? | The same Oxford dictionary added “revert” with the meaning “reply” and marked it Indian English. “Speed breaker” and “joint family” are in there also. | Vocabulary.com |
My favourite is the vada pav row. A food guide calls it a sandwich, and the newspaper reporting it says it is not one. So topic number 1 is still open, guys.
How to Run a Desi Debate at Home
You don’t need a stage or a mic. In my house we use what is already there, and that is the only rule. I took some of these ideas from Presenti and made them desi.
- Make chits. Write the topics on small papers and put them in a steel dabba. Nobody prepares anything, because that is where the comedy comes from.
- Give three minutes per side. After that, people start repeating themselves anyway.
- Skip the judge. Let people walk to the side of the room they agree with.
- Swap sides halfway. Now the person who hated pineapple raita has to defend it.
- Punish the loser. The losing side makes chai for everybody.
- Stop at three to five topics. That is enough for one night, and everybody goes home happy.
If you want more ideas without the desi masala, my funny topics to debate post has the classic ones.
Which Funny Controversial Topics Work for Which Crowd
A topic that works great in a college canteen can go very wrong at a family lunch. So I made this simple table.
| Crowd | Start With | Keep Away From |
|---|---|---|
| Family dinner | Food fights, chai wars, home wars | Salary questions, love or arranged marriage |
| Office chai break | Office fights, silly philosophy | Anything about your boss, if the boss is nearby |
| College friends | Bollywood, cricket, city vs city | Anything about a friend’s family |
| Wedding table | Wedding wars, food fights | Number 71 near the couple’s parents |
| Kids and school | Food fights, the mosquito question | Riskier sparks and wedding wars |
| Online group chat | City vs city, Reddit table | Riskier sparks, because people can’t see you smiling |
What I Keep Out of These Debates
Funny can turn bad very quickly. AiPPT says to avoid topics that go after a real person, someone’s identity, a painful past or their beliefs, and I fully agree. That is why you will not find religion, caste, politics, money problems or anybody’s body on my list.
My papa says a small leak is easy to fix in the morning, but if you leave it overnight, the whole floor is wet. A family fight works the same way. The moment somebody’s voice changes, stop, make one joke on yourself and change the topic.
FAQ
Q: What are some funny controversial topics for friends in India?
A: Start with easy ones like “is dal a soup”, “is veg biryani real biryani” or “has any Goa plan ever happened”. Everybody has an opinion and nobody needs to prepare.
Q: Which is the best funny controversial topic for a family dinner?
A: I will pick number 46, “is mummy’s cooking best a fact or only an opinion”. Everybody at the table gets involved, and mummy decides who wins.
Q: Are these funny controversial topics safe for school or office?
A: Most of them are. Food fights and silly questions are safe almost everywhere. For kids, skip the wedding wars and the riskier sparks. At office, skip anything about your boss.
Q: How long should one funny debate be?
A: Three minutes per side is enough. Keep it to three to five topics in one night, otherwise people get tired and start fighting for real.
Q: Where can I find more debates like these on Reddit?
A: Try r/AskReddit and r/Debate for the silly ones. For Indian fights, city communities like r/delhi, r/mumbai and r/Bengaluru are full of them.
Final Words
So guys, these were my 136 funny controversial topics with a full Indian touch. I have covered food, chai, home, family, weddings, office, college, cities, Bollywood, cricket and some silly late night questions, plus real fights from Reddit and a few facts.
If you ask me, the topic is only half of the fun. The other half is sitting together after the fight is over. In my house no argument is finished until somebody says “chai banau?” (Should I make chai?). Let me know in the comments which topic started a fight in your house.
