Chew on this

Something is chewing me up from inside so let's chew over it together for a while

Chew on this

But that's not all, foreigners would be roaming our streets lost and dazed. There would be no markers to guide them ufffd 'take a right from that bright tobacco stained dustbin' would fade out of our vocabulary. Stain removers and washing machine producing multi-national giants would move out of India. Dhobis will go out of business; Kiran Rao's films won't premiere at the Toronto Film Festival or get nominated for the Oscars anymore.

The awfulness of living in a city as clean as Stockholm or Oslo, with all our freedom gone to spit at leisure. I can't imagine horrifying consequences to this new rule anymore. I think I have bitten more than I can chew.

But you chew your cud over this while yours truly takes a break and deals with his nicotine craving.
