      @@mewrrorball i think part of the southeast asian culture for males is to supress their feelings, because thats considered the 'noble' thing to do, and that feelings are for women and kids. So now we got a certain bunch of older generation folks who didnt think for themselves and didnt question anything, who continue the cycle of being emotionally disengaged because thats how theyre comfortable dealing with things.

      @@TheHouseofChameleons i completely agree. Being appreciative and grateful is not mutually exclusive to identifying and learning mistakes, especially behavioural issues that are going to be passed on to children, as they grow into adults. And besides, its not only a generational, or only a cultural thing. There are individuals who come from these cultures and/or generations, who think for themselves, and choose to be better.

      Eh. I did competition paintball for a couple years and worked at a place as a ref occasionally.
      Had a group of army guys turn up one day. Smashed them. They were easy to hit.
      Their main advantages were they instinctively used teamwork, but apart from that its a completely different game.
      When they set up to shoot at you, they presented a big target relatively. I could see their whole gun, most of their head and half an arm. Thats a LOT when im going to shoot your toe if you let it stick out.
      Paintballers scrunch themselves up and lean around something as to present a tiny target, and move to gain an angle on the other guy instead of shooting forward.
      Was good fun.

      @@slickstrings yea I play paintball regularly as well. We always get military guys out there navy and army mostly groups of 20 to 30, the regulars always run through them instantly but compared to the run of the mill rentals they are pretty good. They have a good understanding of cover fire and communication but the way we contort around the bunkers and crouch tiny to barely peak and snap shoot is too much for them. It's they are not trained to do that or fight against it because it's basically asking to get hit and when your training for a real combat operation it's probably not great to lose half the team every time they go out lol

    Love that!! My roommate and I tried this Thai place down the street from our house in NW Ohio. The hostess was also the waitress. Next to the cash register was a narrow hallway lined with industrial shelving. One side was groceries; the other side was bulk storage. I just got off work, so I needed to wash my hands before eating so I asked where the bathroom was. The hallway leading to the bathroom had storage boxes, a baby walker toy, a box of dolls and a princess house. I came back laughing my ass off at the thought of how disgusted most Ohioans would act at seeing all that, but me. I sat down announcing to my roommate that this is going to be the most awesome Thai food we will find in our area! “Dude! We’re in grandma’s house!! This is going to be awesome!!” And I was right!!

    We call America "mei guo" 美国 because it is an abbreviation from its full name "ya mei li jian gong he guo" 亚美利坚共和国, which directly translates to "American(ya MEI li jian) Republic(gong he guo)". The word "mei" also means beautiful but in this case it is more of a pronunciation thing.
    China's name "zhong guo"中国 is also an abbreviation from "zhong hua ren min gong he guo"中华人民共和国 which means "the Republic(gong he guo) of the Chinese people(ZHONG hua ren min)". The word "zhong" can mean middle, and also, centre. Since the language originated from China, the word here stands for "the centre of" probably the world, or at the time this name is invented, civilisation.

    Actually Ronny wasn't right. The Chinese name for China is not merely "middle country". It is "Empire / Realm of the Middle" and this is rather extremely proud and derogatory towards all other countries. The call themselves the center (of the earth, of everything).

    • @evanliu1939
      @evanliu1939 3 роки тому +4

      The name "Empire of the Middle" is actually invented in the late 1800s, when the Qing Empire was failing after few wars against modern Western states like France and the UK, to show their pride. Before then China hasn't been called as a "state" but more like a giant "field"(中原, especially in the North), because the concept of "state" hasn't been introduced yet.

      Technically, it is correct. Set the satellite just above China, take an image to draw world map. China will be situated in the middle 😁

    Ali Wong had done two Netflix specials, no she's not perpetually pregnant, it's just that this channel had been recycling the same clips from those two same Netflix special for years.
    You're welcome.

      Yes. And she was pregnant twice. One special done per pregnancy. I don't know how that is so challenging for people asking stupid questions here to figure out.

      Worked in a kitchen restaurant in my early 20's. Went paintballing and they knew it was my first time and have no clue what's going to happen. They laughed when they hit me for the first 15 minutes.
      I was smiling when we went left for home, and for at least 2 more weeks. Never got invited again. 😁

    I am Romanian gypsy. A Pilipino marine invited myself and my girlfriend over to his family's Thanksgiving dinner. Because I am dark completed I was accepted. However, my blonde girlfriend was not and, I understood that when helping setup the table. The mother asked me who "the pale girl was" and, when I answered with "my girlfriend" the mother (I swear to God) said "WHY!!! I got over it fast because, they fed me well!!!
