SARAHAH

"Are you ready for honesty? Get constructive criticism from friends and colleagues, in total anonymity."

That's the promise of a new messaging service that has exploded in popularity across the Arab world.

Sarahah is named after the Arabic word for "honesty" and allows users to send and receive messages anonymously from people in their social networks.

It was created by a Saudi programmer, Zain al-Abidin Tawfiq, who says the site has garnered more than 270 million views and 20 million users in just a few weeks. Internet stats firm Alexa says the site is already one of the most popular in Egypt. It has nearly 2.5 million Egyptian users, according to Al Jazeera, along with 1.7 million in Tunisia, 1.2 million in Saudi Arabia, and sizeable followings in Syria and Kuwait.

The popularity of the site, which launched in early February, has spilled over to less anonymous social networks, where users shared screenshots from the messages they received on Sarahah. The messages include confessions of romantic attraction, scathing remarks on people's personalities, and declarations of homosexuality.

There has also been an active online debate about the site.

One Twitter user, Omar Ashraf, put the appeal of Sarahah down to hypocrisy: "We have to hide behind anonymity to be honest with each other," he tweeted.

But another tweeter, Joseph Alfred, was touched by the notes being swapped: "I wish people who have sent sincere messages could make themselves known, so we could recognise their value in our lives."

Tawfiq, the developer, said that he had the business market in mind when he first created the website. He noticed that company employees had difficulty giving their bosses feedback.

"There are several obstacles [to open discussion] such as differences in age or rank, so in some cases anonymity makes presenting criticism more comfortable," he told Al Jazeera.

Tawfiq said that though he "did not at all" expect the website to become so popular so quickly, he was happy with how things have turned out so far.

Anticipation will sometimes set you up for horrible disappointment, but you'd hope that isn't the case for the third Bad Boys film.

Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are finally regrouping to complete the trilogy, but it might be a while before we're actually graced with the film. That probably won't matter, as we've already done 13 years of waiting; we can wait a little longer.

Director Joe Carnahan has calmed our worries that the third film could be too good to be true, by saying it'll definitely be worth the wait.

via GIPHY

"It wasn't challenging [coming up with the antagonist]," Joe told Collider. "It should've been. You've got all these years in the game, and you've made all these enemies, you've accumulated all this, so in that respect, it would be easy.

"But I don't wanna say anything else because I don't wanna ruin the delicacy of who our antagonist is, because I think it's very cool.

"It's not one person. It's a multi-headed hydra, I'll say that. It works beautifully."

The amount of time that has passed since the first sequel will also be taken into account, which will help to make it funnier as both Marcus Burnett and Mike Lowery will presumably play on their age.

Joe also said that Bad Boys III will be R-rated, much to the delight of expletive enthusiasts, claiming there's no need to go PG-13 due to the success Deadpool had with an R-rating.

Unfortunately the script is not quite ready, with time being needed to polish things up and sand around the rough edges. We'd all rather wait for a perfected script, rather than have a rushed one right now, so take as much time as you need, lads.

Advices are always easy to get from everywhere, anywhere from Anyone and anytime.

And India, the country where people are Soooooooo "Generous" you'll get an advice, even from a totally Anonymous person, in the middle of a street, even if he has no clue what is your Issue or problem.

And for once try to deny; the advice that people give you, you'll see the pain in them, like you've tried to cut out their kidney even if he was the one who was offering Dialysis.

People are soo emotionally attached to their "Wise Advises" and feel that it's the best thing that the person getting Advised* will ever listen in his whole life. They try to make it more serious for the guy by constantly repeating, "Don't joke I'm serious" "It's the truth of the life " . Yeah like God himself came down to you and told you the Truth of life. 😑

Even though these creatures are everywhere in every form, family members, Long distant unknown relatives, teachers, friends, drunk guys, homeless and uneducated, unemployed people (They are the Well of advises.) but the most Dangerous of all is Your Mum's best friend.

Typical Aunty

How are advises dangerous and that too from my aunt?

Advises are never dangerous till you're the only one listening to it and you are not going to see the person for quite a time. But Aunts and even uncle who are close to your parents are the most dangerous people. They have it all planned and they work in steps.

Step 1: Information Gathering : First they try to find out all about what you do, what do you study, sports you play, what you drive, even what  undergarment brand you wear.

Step 2: Personal Interview : After they have known all about you and what you do they would here it from you. And moreover they'll make a face like they don't know shit. "Beta, what's your name? Beta, you are studying non med? Beta, do you eat food? Beta, do you breath oxygen?" FfS

Step 3: The first advise to you : You'll get their first advise really very soon, and if you are unlucky then on the first talk. You will feel its never bad to hear an elder giving advise. Oh No.. *Evil Grin*

Not engineer? Photographer?

Step 4: The Manipulation : This is the step your Aunt was waiting for, all what she did was for this step. She'll never talk to you on a random day but every day, when your mom meets/ talks with her, she will be there giving advises.
Suddenly the Aunt who had friend few friend including your mom and done BA in a language or no what so ever education, become career advisor.

It goes like this, "Beta Non Med karlo bohot scope hai"..."Beta Computer Science lena bohot scope hai"..." Beta Govt Job karna bohot scope hai"... "Beta Bhad me jao Bohot scope hai".

But as if it ever affects you. But here you getting affected is not the case. Its your parent, specially your mom.
If you got tell my mom that there is a kid of your friend, who is doing Bba and will then become software engineer, trust me she will tell me that and ask me to do it. 😳😳😳

So in short whatever you do, I advise you all to stay away from the advises.

*Paradox*
