Droplets of last week November 9 – November 15, 2026. PART I

We are surprised by something every day. We are happy or sad about something. Something makes us angry or something makes us laugh.

It's life. And she is who she is.

And here's last week

... IN PEACE

Never eat candy filled with explosives!

Droplets received news from the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. They were handed over to us by The New India Express and Regnum.

It happened last week.

On November 10, late in the evening in the village of Padaria Chhanta, a 35-year-old good fellow named Rajendra Barautia, after a good dinner, sat in a wonderful mood by the fire in the yard of his house.

Outside the gate was a festivity: there was a festival of lights, Diwali.

Garlands were burning, fireworks flashed with a deafening crack...

The wicket creaked and a friend and namesake Rajendra Ramabhagat Barautia came into the courtyard. Say hello, hug, talk.

Ramabhagat pulled out of his pocket and offered Rajendra a round curd candy, rasgulla.

Rajendra received her gratefully from the hands of a friend and put her in his mouth.

And then Rajendrov's head exploded! Natural!

As it turned out, inside the sweet ball was put... explosives!

Such explosive candy locals make for hunting wild boars. These animals also love sweets and, grunting happily, pick them up from the ground, chew and ... well, then what happened to Rajendra happens to them.

Police are now investigating whether Ramabhagat accidentally gave Rajendra a lethal candy or it was malicious intent.

One way or another, the young Indian suffered because of his love of sweets.

“Dripelki” believe that even an Indian should remember the immortal words of the classic of Russian literature Ivan Turgenev: “Another trinket will suddenly want black bread...”

Jesus was broken into pieces in Vilnius

The droplets don't like vandals. They do not like vandalism in any country.

Last week, the Metro edition and the resource aif.ru told “Dripals” that vandals were spotted in the Lithuanian capital Vilnius.

There is an ancient Catholic temple of Divine Mercy in this town. XV century temple, by the way. In his courtyard was a sculpture of Jesus on the cross.

On the night of November 11-12, sacrilege occurred in the courtyard of the temple.

Two men removed Christ from the cross and Jesus first broke off his arm, and then he falls to pieces. All this ugliness vandals filmed and laughed like crazy.

A surveillance camera installed in the yard also recorded what was happening.

According to the Metro, “On the record, they can be heard speaking English with an accent characteristic of northern England.” It is also not excluded that they were drunk, but there is no evidence of this.”.

The rector of the Church of Divine Mercy, Ilias Anatoly Markauskas, is of course shocked and asks the police to find the criminals as soon as possible.

And the wreckage of Jesus still lies in the courtyard of the church. The parishioners decorated them with flowers...

As the detectives of Scotland Yard used to say in the middle of the XIXth century, “How much vandals can be bullied, and retribution cannot be avoided.”.

Find the culprits. They will be punished, they hope.

... IN COUNTRY

100,000 rubles for a spoiled anniversary

"Drops" like when everything is fair. And when for dishonesty and malpractice seriously punished with ruble.

Here from Astrakhan they write us. Through TASS.

Last week it became known that a resident of the Astrakhan region sued the airline almost one hundred thousand rubles for a spoiled family celebration.

That was it.

A man loves his wife individually and his family in general.

And then there was my wife's anniversary. What anniversary without a surprise?

Here he slowly bought tickets to Moscow for the jubilee, himself and their daughter. Immediately tickets to museums-concerts in Moscow bought and began to look forward to the holiday he directed.

And when the day came, the flight did not work. The airline, without explanation, canceled the flight to Moscow.

The mood is "zero", tickets to museums-concerts are missing.

And the aviators were not in a hurry to compensate.

That was the last straw. Patience burst and a faithful husband and caring father went to court.

In court, the airline tried to prove that the plane did not take off, because at this time the anti-terrorist regime “carpet” was introduced over Astrakhan. But as it turned out, there was no "carpet" at the time.

With the validity of the cancellation of the flight, the air carrier flew like plywood over Paris, and the court sided with the family man offended in the best feelings.

Themis made its verdict: a penalty was recovered from the airline, interest for the use of other people's money, moral damage and fines are all possible. A hundred thousand without a little bit and ran.

Aviators ran to cancel the decision in court higher, but there lost.

That's right! There's nothing to live by.

And the airline-deceiver “Drop” reminds what people said at the markets in ancient Sparta: “Whoever cheats today, they will not believe him tomorrow.”.

The cat is an ancient and untouchable animal. News from Kislovodsk...

“Droplets” have long been friendly with the information resource “Komsomolskaya Pravda”. It's true, sorry about the pun. There's always something interesting to learn.

Last week, KP-Stavropol presented us with a wonderful story from Kislovodsk – where the Droplets were recently.

There was a disaster in Kislovodsk. From the third floor of the apartment building there fell an elderly woman. The landing was hard: multiple fractures, damage to soft tissues and head... She's in intensive care now.

When she fell out of the window, in her apartment remained turned on at full capacity gas stove and... Eighteen cats!

Rescuers had to open the door to prevent the explosion and save the sacred animals.

To save everyone – “drops” immediately say – failed. Two tails died.

But the remaining sixteen volunteers were transferred to a veterinary clinic, where they will be examined, treated, vaccinated and selected new owners.

It is gratifying that the fate of the “mustache-striped” was taken care of even by the mayor of Kislovodsk Yevgeny Moiseev.

Our man!

Nebnetheru, the ancient Egyptian priest of Amun in the Karnak temple, once frowning his eyebrows and waving his finger, said: “Save three cats, you will save the whole world.”.

It's not three, it's sixteen!

It's tomorrow, my friends.

Always your public commentator
