Some interesting ways to annoy Punekars

1. Tell them that shaniwarwada is a boring site and doesn’t deserve to be in list of heritage sites. Tell them no city that calls itself the 'cultural capital' of a state treats its monuments this bad.

2. Tell them traffic in Bangalore is worse than traffic in Pune, no need to be proud that 'once you drive in Pune, then you can drive anywhere in world'.
3. Tell them that Kalmadi belonged to Pune and Puneri people still support him because he organized Pune festival (which is an overrated thing anyway).
4. Tell them that Puneri Marathi is not the purest one, point out some 'non-pure' words from their speaking, such as 'mhanla' instead of 'mhanala'.
5. Tell them their so called amrut-tulya tea shops suck at making even a drinkable tea.
6. Tell them that Hyderabad and Bangalore are ahead in terms of quality of work and salary for IT organizations. Tell them that Microsoft and Google both are based in Hyderabad and Bangalore but not in Pune.

7. Tell them education in Pune is overrated and most of the colleges, barring few prestigious ones, are at best average.
8. Point out at the BRTS lane and start laughing hysterically.
9. Tell them that Pune Railway station is worst managed station you have seen.
10. Ask them how many terminuses does Pune station have, and then slowly start counting the terminuses in Hyderabad, Bangalore and Mumbai and watch expressions on their face.
11. Ask them the distance between Mumbai and Pune, and then start wondering aloud why there is difference of day and night in its work culture and attitude to outsiders despite being so close to Mumbai.

12. If you are talking to a young Punekar, then tell them you have seen more hot girls at Dadar station than entire Pune city.

13. Ask them why was there vehement opposition against helmet rule from Punekars when it was proposed by the state govt.
14. Tell them Hyderabad has local train network and Bangalore has metro. Say nothing about Pune, and watch their face :-).
15. Ask them if they know the concept of a ring road, and why Pune doesn’t have it yet.
16. Ask them what happened to the Air Conditioned buses that PMPML had started few years back.
17. Tell them that wada pao at any street vendors outside any local station in Mumbai is better than the one you get in Joshi wadewale.
18. If at first a Punekar doesn't get annoyed, then repeat the list from start to end a few times till he/she gets really annoyed.
19. Tell them that Mumbai has Bombay high court, Nagpur has a high court bench, and even Aurangabad has a high court bench, but Pune doesn't.
20. Start discussing the performance of Pune Warriors India team in the IPL.
21. Ask them when is the Pune Metro starting.
22. Ask them what does the name Rising Pune Supergiants (Pune team in IPL) exactly mean.

23. After that tell him/her you were just kidding and you love the place :-)
