Trust Twitter to take any news and give its own hilarious twist to it. And you know what I don’t complain, it’s helping me battle my Monday blues after all. After making us crackle with laughter with ‘Gets Kidnapped‘ jokes, the latest trend is ‘If Alcohol Were Banned’.
According to The Indian Express, Bihar CM, Nitish Kumar called for a complete prohibition of alcohol in the country. And Twitter donned its funny robes and imagined the most hysterical situations #IfAlcoholWereBanned.

Though some also supported the ban and said that it would better lives in many ways.

What do you think would happen if alcohol was actually banned nationwide? Would Fri-yay become Fri-nay and would Mon-daze become Mon-yays?
But before I read your answers, I’m running to the theka and stalking up, in case this ban really becomes a thing!
