We all have our days when it feels like the universe itself is rooting against us, and chaos proceeds to break out at a moment's notice. It sounds like this dude's brother-in-law landed himself in some real hot water. If you thought you were having a difficult day just imagine trying to navigate having a truck full of rice show up at your place. Wouldn't be easy, man. Not easy at all.

My requests to keep phone on speaker so I can here have been coldly rebuffed. I can however confirm that bribe has been offered and rejected. I cannot say whether this was a question of principle or price 3 27 68 4,941

    World - Shiv Ramdas @nameshiv · 6h Update 2: BIL wants everyone reading this to know that I'm dịck for livetweeting it and this is not helping e 33 27 173 8,634 Shiv Ramdas @nameshiv 5h as a horror writer, I can now confirm to ou with evidence that anything can be horror, I just watched a man's face curl up in abject terror at the words "Why Is It Still Outside My House?" 8 27 105 5,226

    Product - Shiv Ramdas @nameshiv · 5h Update to Drama: BIL had come in to explain that driver insists they'll have to take the rice(and pay) but midway through thouht better of it and is now negotiating with driver again. An excellent demonstration of the flight instinct in mammals when confronted with mortal peril 27 81 5,212 Shiv Ramdas @nameshiv · 5h Side update: They also apparently have to unload the rice themselves. 9 27 42 4,016

    Organism - Shiv Ramdas @nameshiv 5h Also all of you enjoying this need to join me in thanking Mom for going above and beyond the call of duty and carrying phone between locations & also relaying key info while somehow also social distancing so we can continue bringing you our live reporting on this unfolding crisis 29 27 74 6,057 Shiv Ramdas @nameshiv · 5h Update: BIL is making headway.

    Organism - Shiv Ramdas @nameshiv · 5h Key Update: Cigarettes were in fact a huge strategic blunder because BIL apparently assured sis that he's definitely finally quit smoking on Sunday and in no way shape or form was supposed to have packs of cigs just there in pocket ready to be used as negotiating aid. 32 27 157 8,114

However Mom and I have fled back outside because dad just walked in and asked sis "what is this truck outside why did you call it?" 4 27 42

    Product - Shiv Ramdas @nameshiv 4h Manu clearly believes in getting all sides in a conflict before coming to a decision because he is now speaking to lorry driver's assistant. A wise judge. Maybe he'll want to speak to me too. One can but hope. 6 27 42 4,220 Shiv Ramdas @nameshiv · 4h Manu is now speaking to BIL again. So far he has shown no interest in speaking to us.

    World - Shiv Ramdas @nameshiv · 3h Meanwhile Manu and BIL do not appear close to a resolution. ♡ 4 27 22 2,522 Shiv Ramdas @nameshiv · 3h Dad attemped to break curfew and come back out. He has now claimed he's done with the whole thing and doesnt care and also where the hell is dinner and he is going to room to watch news because state of the world matters more than a ruddy truck. Valid points, but I am skeptical. 12 27 36 3,658
