    The concern for everyone in the next decade is the understanding culture and how it influences our interactions.

    I've noticed that there is a cultural difference regarding humor. Between the east coast and west coast of America. I recently moved to the west coast and my humor is considered offensive or they can't interpret it. While on the east or Midwest I get a laugh out of an individual even close to tears of joy.

    • @MementoMori_2070

      Another difference is the style a suit and tie on the west coast is considered too up tight

    Another interpretation of the cartoon is that he is saying to the others "who wants to celebrate MY breakthrough" when in fact everyone has been a part of that team. So the joke is that he is being so damn individualistic he has overlooked the contribution of the people who he's speaking to.

      My interpretation was that if they toasted, the test tube would possibly break and cause and explosion, so the reason all the other scientists looked worried was because it was dangerous. Crazy how there are so many ways of interpreting it!

    But I think within collectivist culture people tend to have in-group and out-group... In-groups are characterized by respect love and trust whereas out-groups are characterized by hostility, hate etc. Leader-Member Exchange Theory explains all this.

    Great presentation! And I have indeed received the joke on this presentation as being "everything..."! No wonder the spiritual healer who has transcended much of what is material would be reluctant carrying such a huge pizza! :) Anyway, your presentation sheds lights to my ongoing question about how a Canadian or American psychologist would avoid creating war in a migrant family when the psychologist's perception or interpretation of the migrant's cultural symbols yield incorrect responses in the consulting room....

    Interesting. How much of a part does governmental spending, specifically matching funds, and do such incentives work to change or support culture? Do the incentives stop at some point? I am reminded of farming and ranching subsidies, some of which are dependent on matching funding. As the main complaint with farmers or ranchers typically come from climatic setting and not weather (as the ag complaints closely resemble those of centuries or millennia past --- climate doesn't change and weather does), I suspect that governmental funding in this regard are in fact charities; many would or do claim otherwise. But those claims are old hat, too.

    i don't want to insult but this woman and her accent just made my listening task score below average and it is tremendously hard for me as an English learner to make her claims clear to understand and digest! Thank you!

    • @rkappra
      @rkappra 6 років тому +6

      It's really good for you as an English learner to listen to people with different accents, since most people you speak to will have some sort of accent. Try listening again, and again.

    I think an individual society could become collective where prejudice, stereotyping, national perception and orientalism is concerned. In other words. People from individual culture could insult someone not from their own if something goes wrong. For example not queuing properly at the supermarket, disintegrated from the host society, dressed differently, having an accent or even looking differently etc.... You know the rest.

    Like Saba Safdar, I also have an Associates degree. That means I know someone who has a degree. Ha hah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha . . No but seriously, humour is an art form. It is one of the word arts, like poetry, short story, rant, song lyrics, novel, etc. . I would like to know how someone could get a degree in her field and at the same time have no idea about what are the "word arts". That's a lot like a person who is 'tone deaf' getting a degree in music. . . Seriously.

    Here is a quote from the Pastafarian Holy Book : "All people who have no sense of humour will have their heads lopped off. . . Ha ha ha ha . . No just kidding." . . (Now take a look inside the quran, please.)* . . ()* Things in brackets are not jokes.

    According to Canadian law, what is the rudest thing that one person can say to another person? . . Hint: There is a law against this type of utterance and you will be put in jail if you do speak this most rudest thing. . . Guess. . . Come on guess. . . Do you give up? . . Of course, I'm talking about uttering death threats. Our culture has decided that uttering death threats is so rude that it is the biggest word crime you can commit. . . That is official. .
    . . Now open a quran and see how many times the believer is commanded to kill, commit murder. . . That's not funny.

    • @factbeaglesarebest
      @factbeaglesarebest 6 років тому +1

      Try the Bible, HINT: there are far more. I’ve read both many times... the Quran is not considered the word god in the way the Bible is... it’s the prophet Mohammed’s teachings over time- hence why there are so many sects of Islam. The Quran doesn’t offer threats of violence and actually consider alll killing out of of war an abomination and never te killing of children.

    I am not sure I am in just one category. I am a combination of them.
    Stereotyping people can be dangerous. We aren't a science experiment. We are people with various feelings, experiences, and interests.
    I see a possibility of abuse here. You are honorable, but dating sites want to make money.
    I am sure you mean well, but this might be about manipulating science.
    Certainly research more, but you admitted you could be wrong about some of it.

    I like to make jokes about religion because it is so easy. It is easy to make jokes about religion because religions are a joke. If you ask me to name my religion, I say "Pastafarianism." The Pastafarians believe that making jokes is sacred. We have never killed a single person in the name of our religion; never; ever; not one. .
    . Here is a joke: . How many muslims have been killed by other muslims in the name of their religion? . . Ha Ha ha ha Ha Ha ha ha Ha Ha ha ha Ha Ha ha ha Ha Ha ha ha Ha Ha ha ha Ha Ha ha ha ! ! ! . . You're killin me. .
