The different ways in which man competes with another! Examples abound, of this competitive spirit. Some of these are-
My car is bigger, more luxurious, more expensive than yours.
My house is bigger, better located than yours.
My wife is better-looking than yours.
My shirt/trousers were made in a better country (Italy/France) than yours (India/Bangladesh).
My guru writes/teaches yoga/discourses better than yours.
Kids' version of the same spirit- "My daddy strongest."
Maybe these days, it would extend into territories like 'My hospital is better than yours.' Or, 'my bypass surgery took longer than yours.'
A blog about life, Hindi music, films, humour, books, people, places, events, travel, and occasionally, marketing management or leadership. Mostly apolitical, because that is a personal matter that each of us should decide on, and because I don't want to lose readers!

The title is just so apt at the moment. The best example.
Yes, last night I had a taste of it- or rather, sound of it- till 1 am.
So did I. And after the sound, the fumes lingered long enough. For emphasis, perhaps.
