_Eugene Lee Yang, we are getting Mexican food._
i can't stop laughing
valentina Neither could I. lmaoooo
+The Great Papyrus (Lilly) that was what I was going to say, then you're the first comment I see XD
BellaTheFangirl Wait, I don't know when the comment was made, do you mean the current one, or Marinette?
I literally show this comment as Quinta was saying it 😱😱 Coincidence
"MARTIN LUTHER KING DID NOT DIE FOR OUR SINS SO WE COULD WORK ON HIS BIRTHDAY"
I'M DONE
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂. "I THOUGHT THAT WAS JESUS"
Ashly LMFAO
Ashly "Hey we still get work off"
Ashly OMG SHE STARTED SAYING THAT WHEN I WAS READING YOUR COMMENT WTH😂😂😂😂
friend who fishes for compliments: do you think im stuck up
me: yes
friend: *gasp*
Life Is Good, You Should Get One HAHA DEAD
im in love with your profile picture
ikr its like b*tch u asked...I answered tha f*ck🤔
“gasp”
Lol this is almost always happens
"EUGENE LEE YANG, we are getting Mexican food."
"...okay."
😂😂😂😂
lilly malfoy XD
Me to my friends
She called him by his full name so.
Quinta needs her own show called " Quintessentially Quinta "
Oh yes totally!!!!!
+litven ^^^^ this 🙌
Omg i agree
you're a genius
You're brilliant
I'm always blunt and people confuse it for bitchiness, and it's unfortunate
Same here
Maybe it's a bit of both
I get you people think I'm rude when I'm just being honest and straight forward but they just can't take the truth.
To be honest if it was a guy being straight forward they'll be looked at as a leader; but when its a girl, people just assume shes either bossy or shes a bitch.
Fredy Mejia YES!
Just remember, there's a fine line between blunt and honest and just plain rude
Abannati blunt is just saying what you want. Honesty is being truthful. Rude is being hurtful
Ev Is Hopefully Not Drowning True, however blunt saying what you want, sometimes saying what you want, and the thing you want to say is hurtful, like for instance "You dance? Omg you are not even good you dance like a freaking stick -_-" ya know?
Abannati
True but some people take everything as being rude.
Abannati honestly I don’t know how much I agree but I get where you are coming from. I believe people have grown up around people sugar coating everything and holding back from the truth, so when people choose to be honest they are immediately offended and decide the person is a btch. However making an unnecessary comment that is designed to lower someone’s self esteem and really hurt them is mean and not acceptable. For instance if someone says ‘do you think I look really good in this outfit?’ and they don’t, I say no, as I believe I’m helping them pick a nicer outfit. However they are so used to a sugar coated world that this offends them, yet they asked. Being mean would be saying something along the lines of ‘no because you are ugly/look ugly and you look terrible and like everyone will think you’re ugly’. I don’t think there is actually a fine line, I think it depends on the person, and how used to living in a sugar coated world they are.
Agree, people in the dance club at my school hate my dancing and they talk trash about me
"But I still want Chinese food." *Shyly crosses arms.*
"EUGENE LEE YANG WE ARE GETTING MEXICAN." *Sassy*
"Okay." *follows*
I love how daring, adventurous, wild (very tall)Eugene is intimidated by (relatively short) sassy Quinta.
😱🔥❤️
" but I still want Chinese food " XDD
Sonya Hale 😂😂😂😂
I think he liked her
I find it hilarious
"I tought that was Jesus" omg
i died to
lmao sorry i meant too
😂😂😂
JONGDAE STAN
Kim Jongdae I´m a sehun and tao stan lol but Jongdae is my bias wrecker
Can you be shy yet straightforward?
yup.
Your all ISTPs
of course.
+Andeavor THAT'S ME o/
+Andy Summons Nope. I'm INFJ and totally straight forward and shy!
It's just so cute when Eugene get pushed around like this! 😍
Coco Yea
He looks like a cute little pup!
No
@Why Do I even try._. Ok, people know that..
This sounds wrong...
This is great because many girls are taught that being straightforward is wrong and it's not.
Who said that? That's bull. We have every right to be straightfoward. #girlpower
@@CraftyMarieArts India said that
@Monica lal, Oof.
@@breathej.4872 you don't even know what's the meaning . You are definitely not Indian
@@CraftyMarieArts My Mexican family
The best part was with Eugene at the end LMAOO.
All he wanted was Chinese food-
Eugene's the man.
Omg, Yes he is! ^-^
BuzzFeedViolet What was it? Eugene what? (his name)
Kkunikku nwn Eugene Lee Yang cx That's his full name.
"Martin Luther King did not DIE for our sins so we could work on his birthday."
"I thought that was Jesus."
That cracked me up.
me 2
Same!
best part i think! lol
Me too lol!
Yeah that was so funny😂😂
Being blunt & being rude are different.
Larry Camarillo I think they can be blended together. Sometimes, when I’m just saying what’s on my mind, I come off as rude because I’m very blunt. If your shirt is ugly, I’ll point it out. If your hair looks good, I’ll say it. I don’t believe in sugarcoating my words, and in a world where everything is so sugarcoated you can taste the sweetness, that comes off as rude.
@@swordlesbian1457 right Thats so true
Friend: do you like my hair
Expectation: yes its cute
Reality: no i don't
Im not tying to be rude or anything but you asked and i say
Yeah. Opinions.
YESSSS
I turned from a passive aggressive person to a straight forward person. I don't regret it :)
I'm sadly both :(
+Geekish SAME IT DEPENDS
same
Jimin Park same I get into a lot of trouble now😉
Jimin Park INFIRES MAN🔥
There's a difference between being honest/straightforward and being too blunt/rude. One is great and trustworthy, and the other is annoying and inconsiderate. Rather than choosing between "too nice to say the truth" and "too harsh when saying the truth," just find a happy middle ground. You CAN be honest without being insensitive.
This was so positive, thanks.
Sometimes the harshness is needed though for reassurance
The truth doesn't give a fuck whether you like it or not. Whether people interpret truth being delivered harshly or nicely, that's the issue of the receiver, not the deliverer.
Jesus Christ That's like people who apologize by saying, "Well, I'm sorry YOU felt that way," instead of saying "I'm sorry for what I did."
That's like saying to a black person, "I'm gonna call you a n***er, because it's just a word, it's what you are, and it's your issue if you're offended about it."
That's like a doctor saying to a mother, "Oh hey, btw, your son died painfully on the table," instead of saying, "I'm sorry, but your son didn't make it."
People who take no responsibility for the way they affect others definitely fall into the "rude, insensitive, and inconsiderate" category. Just because honesty is the best policy doesn't mean you should be a dick about it.
I'm almost always blunt, and most people appreciate me for it.
There is a slight difference between being blunt and being rude. She seems nice though.
thanks Diana. awesome avatar.
The problem is that it's mostly a matter of perspective. Somebody who is more sensitive and easily hurt or already doesn't like you for whatever reason, is always going to feel like you are being rude - while others like your friends will love your for your honesty and straightforwardness.
yea I like to keep things real be myself n just chill but when a situation like 0:45 I'd definitely keep my thoughts to myself lol
its ok to be straight forward but you gotta know how to phrase it...i always say my oppinion and if someone did smth thts wrong i tell em but not in an accusing way but in a calm way tht gets the point across but doesnt make em feel attacked
Pink Unicorn I completely agree, this is exactly how I am with people :)
"MARTIN LUTHER KING DID NOT DIE SO WE COULD WORK ON HIS BIRTHDAY"
"I thought that was Jesus"
LMAO
"EUGENE LEE YANG, we are getting Mexican food! c'mon."
"o..okay.."
No One Important That was perfect! xD
"HE DIED FOR OUR SINS"
*whispers "I thought that was jesus" "doesn't matter we get a day of" I completely lost it at that point.
Omg same
lisa eldhose true
Yup
Honestly
lisa eldhose LMAOOO i started laughing 😭🤚🏼
I'm like 94% straightforward but I want to be the whole 100%😂
SterlsTacos I'm like 0.000% straightforward
SterlsTacos Same here
Same hear
Same!! Sometimes that extra 6% comes in handy.
WHATS STOPPING U AND THE OTHER 6%??
"I thought that was Jesus."
"I don't know. I just want the day off. So let's hear it."
Yeah, I only had one straightforward friend, and every time she complimented me.. it was like the greatest feeling in the world lmao.
''martin luther king did not die for our sins so that we can work on his birthday!''
''i thought that was jesus?''
''well i don't know but i want the day off so..''
*clap clap yeeah* !
I wish I could be way more straightforward than I actually am. I tend to hold back a lot :-(
+Black3y3dAng3L I hear that from a lot of my friends because I am the most straightforward person they know. I really really wish I knew what to say to them that would help them. I just don't know what to tell them because I've always been this way. Sincerely, I hope you find a way to start to hold back a little less, even bit by bit, over time. Good luck, sincerely.
Tom Mullin I hope so too. Thanks Tom :)
Just say what's on your mind, if people get offended, throw a brick at their face. Simple.
JessieMcnally lol Duly noted.
+Black3y3dAng3L Me too. I just think we should stop caring that much about what others will think about us. Many peopple prefer straightforward people than those nice types who tend to hold back, because don't want to be the one who people don't like. Kinda irony.
"M.L.K. JR. DID NOT DIE FOR OUR SINS SO, WE COULD WORK ON HIS BIRTHDAY!" LMAO *lol*
Ah, so that's what blunt means... People always think that i'm being "Brutally honest"
But i'm confused why they keep coming to me asking for suggestion/comment/criticism?
It's because they want the real answer, not compliments/sugarcoated comments.
I feel like if she tried to tell me what to do I'd just giggle because she's so tiny I couldn't take her seriously.
***** Take the stick outta your butt and learn to take a joke :D
***** No. I actually disregard the words of anyone who is beneath the minimum height of 6'0. If you are not my equal or taller in height your words mean nothing to me and will be treated as such.
^^Pop quiz. Do you think this one was serious too?
iplayCoDandBF LOOL ur funny af
***** Nope. It was actually me being as sarcastic as possible. I guess you didn't pick up on that. You fail the quiz. :(
Melissa Uchegbu lol
anyone else love being a straightforward person? -Quinta :)
Meeee :)
Me :D
Haha me and my friends! It is a blessing and a cure! :P
Me too lol, love you Quinta!!!
YASSS Quinta you are one of my fave buzzfeed staff :D
“Eugene Lee Yang we ARE GETTING MEXICAN FOOD”
😂😂😂
*"EUGENE LEE YANG WE ARE GETTING MEXICAN FOOD"*
love that
But that tie is quite horrible
Probably should've worn it with a different shirt 😁
+Farah H I agree lol
I kinda liked the tie but with that shirt no but if he likes it then ok
Yes! Who wears a plaid tie with a plaid shirt?!
Yeah it is
I'm straightforward and people give me so much shit for it
Lesley May i feel you :)
Lesley May same
Lesley May same
sames
Lesley May My mom was driving me, my brother, my sister, and my sister's boyfriend the other day and my sister was sitting in the middle between them, but the seat belt wouldn't work. My mom wasn't gonna stop to let her fix it so I said, "Well that's fine, as long as not stopping the car for 5 minuets is worth risking your daughters life."
My mom scoffed, rolled her eyes, and pulled to the side of the road until my sister buckled in.
She yelled at me, saying she hated how blunt I always am.
So I said,"Well you'll hate me less when we get in an accident and you see your daughter still alive and strapped in safely."
So yes I'm am blunt and brutally so, but what if I hadn't been? What if we had been in an accident and with the help of my mothers refusal to stop the car, my sisters broken seat belt caused her death? My mother would never forgive herself, and our family would have to morn the loss of a very important person to us.
So I will stay as I am, and even if people hate me for it, I will protect them with my honesty by saying the things that should be said but most refuse to say.
Honesty for the win!
When you're quiet and shy so you can't relate
"EUGENE, LEE YANG, WE, ARE GETTING MEXICAN FOOD." 😂
I never thought Eugene could be bossed around.
Quinta is me. I am Quinta.
:) - Quinta.
BuzzFeedViolet
QUINTA YOU'RE AWESOME :)
Then I am Groot
No. You are Christina.

The subtle amounts of #QUINTIN we got in this gave me life and life more abundantly - AMIRIGHT?!
They are just so cute :')
I ship them so much
I ship it
I ship it! #Ashdrew should watch their back 'cause #Quntin is coming
What's quintin?
Quinta has a very special place in my heart!!! VERY SPEACIAL!!
True!! But because I'm so honest with people I have no friends
there is a fine line that separates bluntness and rudeness, you might just be coming off a little too rude
Quinta kicks maximum ass.
hell yeah. :)
+BuzzFeedViolet hello
+Mags McCat it's me.
+William W. Ellis Team Quinta!!
+Julia Sparks all day
I have so much love for Quinta !!!
i've got love for you, too :) -Quinta

I freaking like FREAKING love you Quinta and Ashly without an E ;)
I love you guys infinity raise to the power infinity.
People get mad at me for being blunt lol
"I thought that was Jesus." "Whatever, I just want the day off" *clap, clap, clap* :D Lol, so funny
I can't decide weather i ship Quinta and Justin or Quinta and Eugene.
You can ship me with Eugene 😜
Ship one and tugboat the other
JadesGamesSuck Eugene is gay though so....there's that.
Chenoah Rucker Wait is he really? I think my heart is broken.
HeyLexxxie He's bisexual
Being blunt is how you make people hate you. People like sprinkles and icing to cover their moldy cake.
FIRST REPLY
Fuck you bitch
So let me be blunt...
Stop fucking commenting no one likes you smh
Your username is so cringy
You guys are so mean to her like really she isnt doing anything bad if you don't like her posting a comment about the video like everyone does then ignore it, it is not that hard.
Come on, Eugene and Quinta - married for a week🌸
yaaas
-Eugene- Quinta + Justin = ❤️
“I thought that was Jesus?”
“We just want the day off”
THIS IS WHERE IT ALL BEGAN
#QUINTIN
i love quinta & eugene
+anime freak Also Ashdrew
Miranda (Aisha) Namirembe ikr me too
THAT FLIRTING AT THE START IS GOALS
i love being straightforward, everyone looks to be for support and honesty and i actually like helping everyone :)
My gawd, I'm blunt and honest. Boys love to hangout with me because of that. Girls love to ask my opinion before wearing anything. During presentation and classes, teacher always target me to give ideas. Family love to take my opinion before starting anything but the disadvantage is, ppl may hate you
Story of my life💕 I just say what's on my mind if I am mad happy sad whatever ahh new Bestfriend cx
same!
+Sleepy Panda I'm the same way. How I look at it is not so much that people value my specific opinion as much as they respect that I'm not going to lie just to be nice. We all know people that would tell you only what they know you want to hear (and we know just as many people that go to ask that person for that exact reason).
same
zupac lol, you can be whatever you like :)
I love being blunt~ I love sarcasm~ people think I'm rude, I don't really care. Cause I'm being me
amen sister amen I'm the same.
amen preach
I have found my group
yah
Preach it
Quinta is so pure like
Quinta is my mood
who else think eugune was super adorable at the end lol
My best friend is straightforward, but still cares about my opinion. She always tells me that I need to have my own opinion, don't just go along with others. Generally, I enjoy being laid back and going with the flow, I ways say "I don't mind, what ever is more convenient for you" But it became a bit of a habit where I'd just be to lazy to give my piece of mind, even in important situations.
But my friend has certainly taught me the importance of speaking my mind and has helped me draw out of my shell and try harder, even by a little bit. Straightforward people are great to have around :)
This is so cute and i stan so much 😍😍
is no one gonna talk about the start of Justin and Quinta?
Quinta is the best.
"New Years was two weeks ago",( reaches over hugs him and inches off the hat) LOL.
quinta you're amazingg :)♡
thanks girl, so are you. i'm sure of it!
BuzzFeedViolet aww thank you :)
***** i wonder how tall quinta is
This is AWESOME
None could have been better than Quinta as the role of the straightforward friend.
"Martin Luther king Did not die fir our sins so we could work on his birthday!" whispers "I thought that was jesus?"
i died this is to,much hahahaha
I think Quinta and that Asian dude are sooo adorable. Are they a couple for real
hey which one there are two Asians in the video
Lauryne Love I can't remember his name, but they've done several videos together.
Erika McQueen I was wondering the same thing.
Asian dude
Angeli DeSantos NO ITS NOT ITS EUGENE
I loved this era of buzzfeed
I'm straightforward to the rudest power subtracted by regret
I stopped being blunt after my boss threatened me to fire me and not only thAt, she said that she will make sure no one ever anywhere in the country would hire me again... It was traumatising! Her threats made me stop saying anything now i just nod!
That's seriously not right.
Then quit...you'll find another job if you're able to be pushed around like that it isn't a good thing. There's nothing someone can do to not let you ever be hired by someone else in the country. Stand up for yourself or leave.
+Heidi Mahmoud I doubt, very much, that she can follow through with that threat.
+Heidi Mahmoud I met same problem.
"Eugene Lee Yang, we are getting Mexican food."
I love quinta😭❤
Eugene looking so chastised at the end 🤣🤣 Quinta seems so great
1.I like Quinta.
2.I alternate between a shy kitten into a straight forward dog.
'wasnt that jesus?'
'idk i just want the day off' OMG AHAHAHAH
i love quinta.
2:04 the way she says Eugene lee yang is incredible!!
I've been called rude so many times before for being blunt.
Martin Luther King did not die for our sins so we could work on his birthday
Ahhhh. This is why I live Quinta.
Quinta really needs her own show
Quinta and Eugene at the end lol
YASSS QUINTA SLAY
SLAYYYYYY.
"Eugene Lee Chang" 😂😂 Quintas just great 🙌🏻
Man I love quinta
I could totally be friends with Quinta, blunt people are awesome. I'd hashtag "Team Blunt", but I think it would be taken the wrong way...
Hahaha trueee
I hate when people reply to there own comments
Same
I hate when people does this to fish likes :)
Guys it's obviously a joke lol
their
wow that was so fucking funny
Quinta. My favorite
Quinta and Justin ❤️
i wish i was straight forward
Just be yourself
treasure jones Yeah, but I mean very often I'm afraid to cast my opinion.
+garystfu You shouldn't be afraid of what you say. But, if it actually offends people, just say that this is your opinion, not theirs. And tell them nice things. For example "You need to change that haircut! It's so old. But, it does look good on you". Blam!
Quinta putting Eugene in his place is my happy thought.
SHE'S SO SHORT ITS SO CUTE
This video is a mood
i am.straightforward too,but i make sure i dont say something that would hurt the other person
that is not straightforward.
You are the antichrist.
Jesus you are everywhere I look.
Enderknight16 That's the plan.
Urooj A Then you're not straightforward. You're just like any other pansy that cant handle the truth when the truth gets ugly.
she still took the hat off 😭😭😭
When she took the hat off I felt bad for the guy. 😨
If i'm in a room with awkward silence I'll just say "why is it so quiet"
Quinta is a Candor, I knew it!
+Aimee Barrett The obsession is real!
yasssss
She wears Amity colors a lot of the time tho
this is me, i knew i loved quinta for a reason
love this girl..my favourite..
Quinta sounded like she was Eugene's mother at the end lol!
