Trolling on social media is now commonplace. Be it personalities, institutions or cities, no one is spared. As they mean no malice, online users have a good laugh over trolls.

Our dear Coimbatore has also had its share of trolling on social networking sites. Check out a few of them.

1. If you want to fool your guests, take them to VOC Zoo.

2. In Chennai, there is a mall inside every area. In Coimbatore, there is whole area inside every mall.

3. PSG built a bridge across the road to avoid congestion on the road, but Fun Mall avoids congestion in classes.

4. During peak hours, Hope’s bus stop is hopeless bus stop.

5. In Coimbatore, if you happen to see agricultural land that has not been sold as plots, you are at Agricultural University.

6. The two things you can see at 4 a.m. on NSR Road — street dogs and Class XII students. 

7. Don’t know how much Nehru Stadium has contributed to the development of sports, but it has surely contributed to the development of lot of restaurants and hangouts around it.

8. No matter how much you meditate in retreats up in the hills, the road back to the city will always shatter the calm.

9. The latest thumb rule in Coimbatore is — wherever there is a KFC, there is also a McDonalds.

10. Coimbatore la college kattunavanum, kalaan kada potavanum loss aanadha sarithrame kedayaadhu!
