I have this embarrassing confession: every time I get a notification from my family WhatsApp group, I brace myself like I'm about to open a scary movie. It's just endless chain messages of unrelated memes, random "good morning" wishes, and my aunt's unsolicited recipes that all require a questionable amount of ghee.

Why do we, as a society, insist on having family WhatsApp groups? It’s like signing up for a daily dose of "My son got 98% in his exams" and "Did you see what Sharma ji’s daughter is wearing?"
