Breakfast Babble is ED’s own little space on the interwebs where we gather to discuss ideas and get pumped up (or not) for the day. We judge things too. Sometimes. Always. Whatever, call it catharsis and join in, people.
Tinder and pizza sound great in theory. They give you instant gratification but have a high chance of leaving you with regret at 2 AM.
Now, before you accuse me of making bizarre comparisons (which, honestly, I do for fun), let’s break it down.
The minute you open Tinder, you’re bombarded with choices—some too cheesy, some too bland, and some that look tempting but feel suspicious. It’s like scrolling through Zomato at midnight. You’re hungry for love (or at least for a decent chat), but every option makes you wonder, “Do I really want this?”
There’s the “Gym, travel, stocks, and mindset” guy—basically a thin-crust pizza, all crunch, no substance.
Then there’s “Here for a fun time, not for a long ride”—the weird pineapple pizza that some people love but most avoid. And of course, the classic “6’2, because that matters”—the Margherita of Tinder. Basic, but reliable.
Swiping left is rejecting a potential match, just like deciding against the overloaded cheese-burst pizza because you’re trying to be healthy. But fast forward a few minutes later, regret hits. Maybe that extra cheese (or extra 5’8 guy) wasn’t such a bad idea?

Just like Domino’s charging ₹50 for extra cheese, Tinder tries to convince you to pay ₹399 to see who likes you. But let’s be real—if you have to pay for it, is it even worth it? That money is better spent on an actual pizza, which, unlike your latest match, won’t ghost you after one conversation.
The biggest scam? Expectation vs Reality. The pizza looks heavenly in the ad—gooey cheese, perfect crust. But when it arrives, it’s a sad, dry mess that looks like it survived an earthquake. Tinder matches are the same. That Hrithik Roshan lookalike? More like Raju Rastogi from 3 Idiots.
After endless swiping and pointless chats, you sit there wondering—was it even worth it? Maybe you should’ve just stuck to the tried and tested dal chawal of relationships: arranged marriage via parental WhatsApp groups. Or maybe, you should’ve just watched ZNMD for the 50th time instead.
But then again, just like pizza cravings, we always return to Tinder thinking, This time, it’ll be different. Spoiler: It won’t.
