As a Tamil person, I'm laughing.

[LaughBreak: Dad Jokes ‘N More @MediocreJoker85]

I took an elevator up to the 80th floor for a meeting.

As I was getting out, the operator said, “Have a good day, son.”

I frowned and said, “Don’t call me son. You’re not my dad.”

He scratched his head and said, “No… but I brought you up, didn’t I?”

After the meeting, I got back on the elevator to head down, and the same operator was there.

Neither of us said a word.

When we reached the ground floor, he looked at me and said, “I’m sorry.”

“Because you called me son?” I asked.

He shook his head.

“No, son… because I let you down.”

Not a lot of people bring up Thazuvudhu Nazhudhu as an example of SPB sir’s vocal prowess, but it’s a masterclass on power, diction, growling, improvisations, and that razor-sharp tightness in his vocals. Absolute genius work by @arrahman sir.
