    Regarding the "shower with a lemon" - yes, this is a thing people do and have been doing since ancient times because citric acid lightens hair and skin. It's basically a cheap and gradual bleach.
    You can often tell when someone lightens their hair with lemon juice (rather than salon bleach) because the tips of their hair are super light (and often yellow rather than platinum blonde because they're not using a purple toner) and it gradually gets darker toward the root.

    A big 'ol tear welled up in my eye when I saw the visage of Adachi from Persona 4 soar across the screen at 4:17. It really speaks volumes to Aztrosist's ability to grow as a creator and move past his mistakes. It feels like only yesterday when Aztrosist said, "I don't know what that means, and I don't want to know," in response to a viewer message referring to Adachi in the 66th episode of the Sleep Deprived Podcast at the timestamp 22:35. Keep up the great work Aztrosist

    I'm so glad I found this video! I'm a huge fan of Aztrosist's work, and I was dying laughing when I saw this one. The worst WikiHow articles are truly a goldmine of comedy.
    My personal favorite is the one on how to stop a wedding. The instructions are so specific and detailed, it's hard not to picture the scene in your head. Just imagine crashing the wedding, objecting to the marriage, and then moving to a different part of the country. It's the perfect way to make a memorable exit, if not the most practical.
    Another great one is the article on how to become a furry. The instructions are so confusing and weird, it's hard to tell if the author is serious or not. But I have to give them credit for creativity.
    I could go on and on about the weird and wonderful world of WikiHow articles, but I'll spare you. If you're looking for a good laugh, I highly recommend checking out this video. You won't be disappointed.

  • @fatuusdottore
    @fatuusdottore 10 місяців тому +4

    I love cooking Japanese food, and I don't think learning how too do so makes you a weeaboo at all. Anything that makes you a better person and teaches you something is not cringe. The reason learning about Japanese culture/language was on the list in the article is because weeaboos notoriously *don't* actually care about Japan beyond anime, so like, they only care about anime-related things and not the history/people/culture unless it ties back to anime. Using anime as a way to learn about history and other cultures is, in fact, a good thing.
    But the weeaboo is too self-absorbed to care about doing any of that, unlike someone who genuinely loves another culture. The person asking about whether it's ok to cook Japanese food honestly is more just the sad victim of our current year woke culture than a weeaboo (where having any sort of interest/learning anything about different cultures and not just being completely ethnocentric is considered "cultural appropriation" by Twitter/Tumblr regards, not limited to Japanese/Asian cultures, but seen very often even with things like Latino culture. I even saw a post where some gringa harassed a Mexican for wearing Catrina makeup telling her to "wipe that shit off her face" and calling her a cultural appropriator, when it turns out the girl actually was from Mexico [which I could tell easily, being from there myself], and the woketard was simply massively racist, thinking we all look the same and are very dark-skinned LOL.)
    You don't want to be like either of those people, the weeaboo or the culture police. There's a middle ground, and we tend to *like* it when others respectfully take interest in our culture, contrary to woke belief. The only people who try to gatekeep their [sub]culture [they're not an actual culture,, considering they're Americans too, and actual African/Caribbean cultures are *much* different/they don't like these kinds of people for a reason] are racist black Americans and some racist -Americans with Latino parents, who are not in fact Latino and cannot speak the language (think of Primos and all the mess tied to that, where the idiot VA is lecturing the audience on Spanish she doesn't even know, whilst speaking English, a coloniser language, and just coming off an absolute regard despite her best efforts to appear intelligent, because she simply is not. She is not Latina, neither is anyone else who worked on that awful show, clearly, since it was racist, culturally insensitive, and got literally everything wrong, even basic Spanish grammar LOL.)
    On the other hand, Coco is beloved in Mexico despite being an American film because Pixar really researched Mexican culture and cared about telling a heartfelt story *anyone* could relate to, that just so happened to take place in Mexico. To this day, that film is special to my heart, because I saw it with my grandma and my sister, and the abuelita who is in the film looks almost exactly like my great-grandma, who sadly passed before I could say goodbye. So, the concept of an afterlife existing as per our folklore brought to life in such a charming way and family values being promoted rather than destroyed as Pixar does now, is really very wonderful.
    It's sad to see how wokeness destroys everything good, but we must fight back by embracing each other and our cultures. I, for one, love Persian culture, Middle Eastern culture, Indian culture, Turkish culture, German culture, and Japanese culture. I know how to cook dishes of every one of those countries except Indian (though I shall surely learn), and no woketard is going to keep me from loving these cultures that have taught me so many things, from how to make tasty meals to the media and stories/cultural habits of their people, whom I highly respect. (For instance, the honour Middle Eastern people have, in that most will not pocket money they find on the street, even when it has no clear owner, but will try to find whoever dropped it, as I witnessed when I visited a Lebanese bakery. They had a sign saying someone dropped money and if the correct sum was told to the clerk, they'd give it back. An American would never, and most Mexicans, as much as it pains me to say, certainly would not.)

      For indian food I reccomend you learn how to make pav bhaji and you can order the pav or make it yourself if you want, I personally like it although it does take a while to get prepared. Also it's good to be open and have interest in all these cultures because it makes you a more knowledgable and open minded.
