The Civils Mains result has been declared. This thread is for sharing your grief , joy , mixed feelings - absolutely anything and everything.
Stupid question, but does anyone else have a problem wrapping their head around the fact that the past tense of ‘beat’ is also ‘beat’ and is pronounced in the same manner?I think I used its past tense while speaking for the first time ever a couple of days back (‘England beat Denmark’; BEET or BET, I kept wondering) and since then I’m very annoyed. In hindsight I should have used ‘defeated’ but I can’t understand why this is making me so uncomfortable.

@TabsAndChords yes the ‘Allez Opi-Omi!’ lady, following too closely in fact :P
What she did was a disaster . She would have been guillotined by now had she been living in 17th century France.
Though i am liking the all the memes :D
» show previous quotes What are the other aspects ?1. Most weeks at no. 12. Most ATP titles3. Most prize money earned4. Best match-win % in history5. Most year-end #16.+H2H over both Federer and Nadal
apart from 20 grand slams !!
Only one of the 3 to win all the grand slams twice. Unreal mental strength. Will most probably win the Olympics and US Open too(unless he hits another linesmen :p). The only thing Federer has over him is that he is more easy on the eye.
@balwintejas Tennis is an individual sport unlike football so that comparison isn't valid imo
Easy on the eye!! I feel offended...
Nevermind.. not gonna start a debate because it has no end.
Conor is a piece of overhyped shit in my opinion .
Glad that khabib showed him his place 2years back.
Just how did a throwback death cult with a seventh-century worldview come to dominate 21st-century social media so swiftly and completely?

Another one :
"The parameter is that we segregate all villages as A, B, C, and D. The village where we get 80 per cent votes is A, the village in which we get 60 per cent is B, the village in which we get 50 per cent is C and the village where we get less than 50 per cent is D.” She elaborated: “The development work first happens in all A-category villages. Then comes B and only after work in B is done, we start with C. So this is up to you whether you make it to A, B or C and no one should come in D because we all have come here to do good"

Best luck👍.
Would people be interested if we start a "Mains Questions Thread" along the lines of "Prelims Questions Thread"? The questions wont be exactly like the questions that we get in mains, but more like conceptual mini questions. For example, questions like "What is an ethical dilemma?", "What is sustainable development?", "How is gender equality related to population growth?" etc. Those who post the questions will benefit from the additional content they get in answers, for those answering it will serve as a sort of revision.
We already have a Mains thread from last year. Let's revive that. Traffic will be less in a new thread.
We also have few gem sources for Mains in this thread- https://forumias.com/post/detail/Mains-2020-Doubt-and-strategy-discussion-thread-1601963441?page=44
