Aamir Liaqat and Adnan Sami are among those people who are always in the news because of their controversial comments. The two recently came face to face on Twitter and the end result is cringe and hilarious at the same time.
It all started when a Twitter user tweeted to ask Abhinandan if the tea was fantastic.
Aamir Bhai was not having any of that so he decided to set the facts right.
Yes.. He went… shot his identity and spit on the graves of his forefathers had a betrayal drink.. got hatred from Pakistan .., Fool https://t.co/zOe6MTH4Rb
This did not go down well with Adnan Sami, who responded with a tweet that only he understood.
Only a pimple of an existence like that would derive this from it’s unimaginative pedestrian molecule of a mind which is why you lead a pathetic life eating off others name in order to seek validation of your otherwise non consequential self!Enjoy! https://t.co/mF7Mt7fCyG
Turns out Aamir was able to make some sense of Adnan’s tweet, so he fired back with an equally fiery tweet.
Only an abcess filled with the pus of hatred and narcissism would’ve to write gibberish all the time to seek validation & prove his patriotism all the time, your TL is more about Pakistan than your ownself so we all know who is living a pathetic life.I know you’re undercover https://t.co/BvPOoS1M4g
One would have thought that after the two called each other pimples, things would have settled. But no. Adnan decided he had not had enough so he posted another tweet, which he later deleted. But Aamir’s reply is still there.
We wonder why Aamir Bhai called Adnan “my frustrated eunuch!”
My frustrated eunuch!Actually you’re the breaking out of a rash on mucous membrane,disease is incurable,you are suffering from Identity crisis that’s why doing weird things.I don’t know which part of your body is suffering from pimple kapadia &why she is erupting again and again? https://t.co/DxQxYBsuKv
Federal Minister for Railways Sheikh Rasheed Ahmad has warned India that Pakistan even has small nuclear bombs weighing 125-250 grams, which can hit and destroy targeted areas, The News reported.
“We know if we want to use our 1-inch, 2-inch or half an inch [atomic bombs],” the minister said on Sunday, leaving netizens all cracked up.

“میں بابا گُرو نانک اسٹیشن سے ہندوستان کو متنبع کرتا ہوں کہ ہمارے پاس پاؤ پاؤ کے اور آدھے آدھے پاؤ کے بھی ایٹم بم ہیں۔ ہمیں پتا ہے ایک اِنچ کا استعمال کرنا ہے، آدھے انچ کا، پونے انچ کا یا دو انچ کا۔” ~ جنابِ وزیرِ ریلوے شیخ رشید صاحب pic.twitter.com/71WMcgoCfR
“India committed two blunders. The first one was carrying out atomic explosions while presuming that Pakistan would not do so and secondly, it scrapped special status of Kashmir on August 5 this year, believing Kashmiris won’t react”, the minister said further.
Tensions soar on either side of the border ever since New Delhi on August 5 revoked Article 370 of the Indian constitution, robbing the people of the troubled valley of their autonomous state. India has since kept Kashmir under lockdown.
As tensions continue to soar between nuclear-capable Pakistan and India amid Kashmir crisis, an India media outlet has aired tips on how to survive a nuclear attack, Scroll.in reported.
According to the details, a recent video clip from television channel Zee News, informing its viewers about what to do in case of a nuclear attack, has left people on social media in disbelief.
News anchor Sudhir Chaudhary’s tips on surviving nukes include not looking directly at the explosion, running to the basement of the strongest building around you for shelter, taking a bath and sealing clothes exposed to radioactive waves to avoid them from being spread further.

“The specter of nuclear war haunts tensions between Pakistan and India, and the disputed territory of Kashmir could provide the spark that lights South Asia’s nuclear fuse,” warned a report published by a United States (US) think-tank last week.
The report — by Stratfor, a geopolitical intelligence platform based in Austin, Texas — also disputed the classification of the Kashmir issue as India’s “internal affair” or a “bilateral” issue between the two neighbours.
“It isn’t. A potential nuclear conflagration cannot be anything other than a matter of international peace and security,” the report warned.
According to the report, the possibility of “the conflict going nuclear may have increased on Aug 16”, when Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh seemed to abandon India’s “no first use” doctrine.
“India has strictly adhered to this doctrine. What happens in the future depends on the circumstances,” he had tweeted.
The world’s third-richest man Warren Buffett turned 89 on Friday. Here are five valuable pieces of advice on how to be successful from the investing legend himself.
Marry the right person
According to Buffett, the most important decision of your life is choosing your life partner.
At the 2009 Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting, Buffett said, “Marry the right person. I’m serious about that. It will make more difference in your life. It will change your aspirations, all kinds of things.”
Invest in yourself
“By far the best investment you can make is in yourself,” Buffett says.
“Take care of your body and mind — especially when you’re young…You get exactly one mind and one body in this world, and you can’t start taking care of it when you’re 50. By that time, you’ll rust it out if you haven’t done anything.”
Associate yourself with ‘high-grade people’
“One of the best things you can do in life is to surround yourself with people who are better than you are,” Buffet said in 2015. He explained that when you’re around people better than yourself, you’ll start acting more like them. Conversely, if you hang around with people who behave worse than you, you’ll start being pulled in that direction.
Work for people you respect
“Try to work for whomever you admire most,” Buffett says.
Buffett says that while salary is an important factor when thinking about your career, you shouldn’t go for a job just for the money. It is also important to consider the experience you’ll gain from it.
Success isn’t measured by money
Despite being one of the richest people in the world, Buffett doesn’t use wealth as a measure of success. For him, it all comes down to relationships and love.
“Being given unconditional love is the greatest benefit you can ever get,” Buffett told MBA students in a 2008 talk.
The ATM robber who went viral for making faces on the CCTV camera while robbing an ATM passed away early Sunday morning in police custody.
The man identified as Salahuddin Ayubi from Gujranwala was arrested on Friday from Rahim Yar Khan while attempting to rob another ATM. According to reports, the robber was also wanted by the Islamabad police.
The police claim that Ayubi was behaving like a “mad man” in lockup when he suddenly became unwell. They added that the deceased was reportedly suffering from a health condition and when his condition deteriorated, they rushed him to Sheikh Zayed Medical College where doctors declared him dead on arrival. A post-mortem is being conducted on the dead body to ascertain the reason for his death.
An inquiry team, headed by Superintendent of Police Investigation, has also been constituted to look into the matter.
Ayubi came into the spotlight after a video in which he was sticking his tongue out at both the camera in the corner of the booth and the one installed in the ATM machine, went viral on social media. Later when he was attempting to break into an ATM booth in Rahim Yar Khan, the police caught him and arrested him.
Ayubi’s death in police custody has sparked outrage on social media and people are demanding Minister for Human Rights Shireen Mazari and the Punjab Government to look into the reason behind his death.
Heart attack? Really? Smells like police brutality.

Breathtaking is what everyone is calling the new, open to the public, Samandar Lake. So when the Minai family decided to take a weekend trip from Islamabad to see the now-famous lake, they planned their day around it.
The Minai family at Gali’s End, Nathiagali
They stayed at Gali’s End, a renowned retreat at the end of Nathiagali. A trek up to the cottages, the view was the definition of breathtaking.
Enjoying a cup of tea on a perfect summer day
The rooms were decent, the view gorgeous. It was almost like living in a cottage in a European country and since it was a trek up, it is secluded from the rest of the small city. If anyone needs a break, its the place to go so you can get away from the world. The only con was that the bathrooms were older and had not been renovated.

A perfectly cloudy day, they took the 45 minute drive down to Barra Gali. Google Maps wasn’t as effective as expected, and they got lost, stumbling upon a beautiful stream to dip your feet in.

Stand in the Stream
They asked the locals around, where is this Samundar Katha lake? Don’t go there, said the locals. Your car won’t be able to take the drive down and it’s seriously not worth it. Not worth it? PTI Official’s pictures say otherwise.

Ignoring their advice, they took their car down to the lake car park area where they were told they had to walk the rest of the way or take a Mehran to the lake. The locals were right. There wasn’t a set road so taking a normal Corolla would ruin the car. They paid a guy 1000 rupees to sit in the back of a Mehran and went to the lake that everyone was talking about and found:

Lake View
Lots of cars, a small lake with boats and zip-lining. The boats didn’t make any sense. The lake was so small, you could only go round and round the lake and get seriously dizzy in the process. The zip-lining looked like fun but was such a short line, it didn’t hold much appeal either.

And the view? The stream they had stumbled upon was more beautiful – and free. On the way back to their car, they got stuck in a traffic jam.
Not a great time.
Bummed, they went to Nathiagali bazaar to the famous Taj Mahal restaurant for Patakha chicken. The fried whole chicken, with its perfect masala made the trip up North worth it.

So, will they go back again? To Nathiagali, yes. To Samundar Lake? Definitely not. They might have if it wasn’t so difficult to get there. The views along the way are a lot more beautiful but getting to the lake is 100 percent not worth the hassle.
The Ministry of Science and Technology, under the patronage of Fawad Chaudhry, has launched its own mineral bottled water, Safe Drinking Water, for Rs 1/litre. However, this water is only available to government offices.
Minister Fawad Chaudhry said that the step has been taken keeping in mind the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaaf government’s austerity measures. This bottled water will provide a cheaper alternative to the mineral water that is currently available.
The minister also shared that the Pakistan Council of Research and Water Reserves has so far prepared 500 ml bottles of the water.
The water is expected to be served to officials at PM Office, President House, GHQ and Parliament House first, before being distributed to other ministries. After that, they will be available to the public. The minister aims to provide people with cheap and safe drinking water.
We’ve all grown up watching Hollywood movies in which Chinese takeouts are the thing. And let’s be honest, we’ve all secretly wanted that. Though most Chinese and Pan Asian restaurants in Lahore offer takeaways and deliveries, they rarely offer single servings which is why you usually have to think twice before placing an order.
Enter NOI-Stir Fry Kitchen – an Asian Stir Fry Kitchen which has been creating waves on social media and all the food groups. After reading some fabulous reviews on their dishes, I gave in to my temptation and placed an order. Considering their prices were also comparatively reasonable, I didn’t need any more convincing.
From the 16 gravy options they have, I tried their Crispy Honey Sirachi, Sweet and Sour Manchurian, Mixed Mushrooms Teriyaki and Hot BBQ Shashlik and am happy to report that not one of them let me down.
All dishes are single servings and come with a side of plain steamed Asian rice packaged in a paper carton. The food was delivered piping hot in small black plastic containers and it was good to see that their serving size was pretty good – it was more than enough for a person. The quantity of vegetables in each dish was also impressive and they were well-cooked.
My favourite from the options has to be the Mixed Mushrooms Teriyaki and Sweet and Sour Manchurian. Most of us Pakistanis are used to eating saucy Manchurian which tastes like ketchup mixed with chicken. But Noi’s Manchurian was neither saucy nor ketchupy – it was just like the name suggested – perfectly balanced between sweet and sour. The Mixed Mushroom Teriyaki also had a similar flavour but with a stronger Ginger flavour. The mushrooms in this dish were delicious – they were better than anything else and I would order this dish for the mushroom alone next time.
Meanwhile, the Crispy Honey Siracha was extremely spicy and literally puts your mouth on fire. What I didn’t like about it was how it was barely crispy and the taste of honey was hardly detectable.
Mixed Mushroom Teriyaki, Sweet and Sour Manchurian
Nonetheless, given the quantity, taste and price, Noi is highly recommended. Their kitchen is open 5:30 pm onwards till late night but they are usually sold out long before closing time. Best is to place your order ahead of time so that you don’t end up disappointed.
The Information Ministry has come under fire for using an Indian poem as a new national song to mark Friday’s “Kashmir Hour” that was observed across the country on Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan’s call.
As per the details, the poem “Han Main Kashmiri Hun” by Indian poet and politician Imran Pratapgarhi was played on television channels across the country as the nation expressed solidarity with Kashmiris suffering at the hands of Indian occupying forces.
Special Assistant to the PM on Information and Broadcasting Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan also shared the song on Twitter and wrote, “This poem accurately describes the plight of residents of Kashmir and how they are enduring Indian cruelty. We are standing with Kashmiris.”
The move was criticised by Twitterati, who asked why an Indian poem was used by the government when several Pakistani poets had also written about Kashmir.
