Fred Astaire Versus Shahrukh Khan, Song Sequences
Ready for a silly SILLY post? It occurred to me that Shahrukh and Fred Astaire have many of the same situations in their song sequences. And then it occurred to me that we could compare and contrast!
Continue readingPost Ideas Please!!!! Any Popular Indian Film I Have Not Yet Reviewed, Your Favorite Non-Indian Romance I Could Review, Novels, Comic Books, Songs, Whatever!!!!
I was kind of excited about being able to see new movies in theaters again, and now NO. So I’m back to hunting around for post ideas. I’m still doing Friend Movie Nights, but there aren’t that many new streaming movies that would work for Friends, so we are rewatching stuff I’ve already seen/reviewed. I’m not gonna make myself watch anything I don’t want to watch because life is too short. So I am left with “what is an interesting thing I have already seen that I could review”. Give me ideas!
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: What Should We Watch for MY PARENTS’ ANNIVERSARY????
There are probably other birthday’s and events this Friday, but really, what is more important than this one? We need to do something wedding/marriage themed, for sure!

Happy Monday! I haven’t had time to write/put up this post until now! And even now I am on a work call as I type. Oh well.
Continue readingI Have a House Under Contract! Let’s Talk COLORS!!!!
“Under contract” meaning we still have to have the inspection and get the money together and loads of stuff could still go wrong, but thank goodness the first hurdle is over. PHEW! And now I have that suffocating “this is such a big scary decision and it’s actually happening” feeling. It’s a terrible mistake! I should run back to safe familiar ground!
Continue readingDCIB Book Club: Shards of Honor in ONE Week!!!! Dealing With Dragons in TWO Weeks!!!!
I am excited about both these picks! I can’t even decide which I am MORE excited about. One is a new favorite, and one is an old favorite.
Continue readingDCIB Book Club: Ronia the Robber’s Daughter! A Childhood Favorite of Mine
I just reread this whole book in, like, 3 hours. It’s SO GOOD! And I just can’t put it down because stuff keeps happening. Also, we have MUCH to discuss.
Continue readingHigh Stress House 24 Hours! Distract Me By Joining Me in Non-Incest Taboo Relationships FanFic!!!!
Did you know real estate is stressful? Like, it combines money/relationships/shelter all in one thing? WHO KNEW???? Anyway, I’m in a high stress 24 hour period of my hunt (offer submitted, waiting to hear back, 50/50 chance it will work out) so I need DISTRACTION!!! Time for FanFic!
Continue readingSaturday WatchAlong: Dishoom! So Dumb! So Fun!!!
Happy Saturday! Weird week, I hope there are folks who can join me on this one, didn’t get much interest. But, who cares! It is a wonderful satisfying STUPID movie.
Continue readingSaturday Small Talk: Chat Away While I Organize/Clean!
Happy Saturday! I am feeling inspired to make my living space more liveable again. Too much just doing what is easy/simple and not enough thinking about what is pleasing to see.
Continue readingIruvar Review Repost, In Honor of Prakash Raj’s Brithday and Jayalalithaa
Iruvar!!! It’s AWESOME!!! And as a bonus, I am going to explain Tamil politics very quick and dirty in the first paragraph. For those of you who enjoy that kind of thing.
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong, ON SATURDAY! Dishoom, So Dumb, For Akshaye’s Birthday!!!
Friday watchalong on Saturday this week, and we are watching Dishoom! It’s big, it’s dumb, it’s action, and it has Akshaye Khanna in it (aaaahhhhhh, Akshaye. So delightful).
Continue readingMaddy Positivity Post! Rank Your Maddys!!!!
I’m thinking maybe not everyone here has such a warm familiar feeling about Maddy as I do. In which case they are WRONG. Anyway, I’m gonna list out the best Maddy options and you can rank based on whichever of them you have actually seen.
Continue readingAamir Positivity Post! His Hair, a TimeLine
I feel like it can’t hurt for all of us to focus on Aamir right now. And I feel like it can certainly help him if we share our Wise Words in relation to Hair. He clearly lacks wisdom in that area.
Continue readingMADDY!!!!! Our Rocket Santa is SICK!!!!!
I’m using nonsense inside jokes in the headline, and I don’t care! It’s UPSETTING!!!!!
Continue readingAamir and Salman: One is Covid Positive Today and One is Vaccinated Today
The Salman vaccination is pretty for sure, the Aamir story might still be false. We shall see! But both of them are Big News, so the DCIB community needs a place to process.

Happy Wednesday!!! I have FIVE work calls scheduled today!!! First one in 10 minutes, so I gotta write this thing up FAST.

Warning: I slept very badly last night for no reason, my brain fingers not working right, there will be typos.
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: Should We Celebrate Rani or Akshaye? Is it Time to Watch Hulchul or Dil Bole Hadippa?
I suppose we could watch a Deep and Smart movie from either of them, but I don’t want to! And that’s not the Friday WatchAlong brand anyway. Rani’s birthday was on Sunday, Akshaye’s is next Sunday, who do we celebrate????
Continue readingDCIB Book Club: Shards of Honor By Lois Bujold in TWO WEEKS!!! April 4!!!
Yaaaaaaay! One of my favorite new books, which I read thanks to a recommendation ON THIS VERY SITE a couple years ago. It’s smart, it’s romantic, it’s addictive, and it’s a little bit mentally challenging too. You should all really REALLY enjoy it. Oh, and it’s also the perfect SRK/Tabu movie.
Continue readingBadal Review: Adorable Young Rani, Bonkers Plot, AWESOME Songs, All the Best of the 90s
Do you feel the need for a crazy nonsense plot, Rani being unbelievably cute, and Bobby Deol being a hilariously bad actor? This is the movie for you! Seriously, Bobby is falling off the couch laughing BAD.
Continue readingMonday Morning Questions: What Do You Want to Ask Me the Day After Rani’s Birthday?
Happy Monday! I got to see a PERSON yesterday!!! I picked my friend up at work and we got ice cream cones and then went back to my place and watched a Rani movie and it was AMAZING. And now I am trying to come down off that high and actually do work-work.
