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.

      @@TheHouseofSniffers 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.

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!!

    China is called Zhongguo because the Chinese used to consider it the center of the world, basically. Not literally, but it was a very closed off and self sufficient country (like Japan, the USSR and many others), so they were basically their own world. So it does have a meaning.

    Waaaaay before Canelo, the Mexican fighter came along, my family, her brother and his family, and his wife’s parents and her siblings and relatives all had a party, sat down, and watched Manny fight Oscar De La Hoya (the former famous Mexican fighter). This was Dec 2008 and we were in Brea Ca in one of my relative’s house. I remember we were rooting for our fighter who had represented Mexicans. The funny thing is that we respected Manny and praised him while he fought well. We knew it must have been difficult for him to reach that point in his career and we knew it was hard for him because he was a minority. We respected him so much. When he beat Oscar we were like, “Damn, he’s good! Good for him!”. We saw a lot of us in Manny. My family has all shades but because some of our family are darker-skinned, we related to him. He had trouble speaking English like our older relatives. He looked like some Mexicans from certain areas in Mexico. He had the same body type as a lot of Mexican men in Mexico. Same hair. Same demeanor. We respect people because it’s normal and necessary. But we also respect people even more when we learn about them and try to relate.

    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.

    Okay, now I am sure there are basically two types of parents - rich white and the rest of the world. I am literally relating to Filipinos, Lebanese, Mexicans, Vietnamse and everyone else. We all here are just getting slapped on our birthdays. 😂

      I mean if you’re comparing to them to upper middle class, wasp type white people, I guess. Eastern European and Italian parents not so much.

      Ya, cause cultures can't have differences or similarities, you can't share mods, emotions, ways if freaking with things, behaviours etc. No only Chinese parents can be strict & stingy...

    What's annoying is the original Australian version of The Slap was written by a Greek second gen man about the generational divide between Mediterranean immigrants in Australia including how kids are disciplined! Sounds like the American version completely butchered it.

      Chinese have multiple meaning.
      "middle" is also central/focus. Aka king/heart of asia. And it's not earth, guo is country.
      Also,for america, it's probably because of the pronunciation and language barrier. There is no real basis that ancient china think america is a beautiful country.

    Dude, Bobby Jindal is awesome. While he was Governor, he spoke at a church I was at & at the end, he was posing for pictures with people. I asked my aunt to stand to his left bc my purse was so big & I hold it on my right arm.
    Of course, she refused for no reason, so I had to walk behind him & I tripped on my dress & my arms flew up & I accidentally grabbed his buttock!!! 🥺
    His bodyguards started rushing in & I was about to get tackled & Governor Jindal told them it was obviously an accident. I was so red faced, embarrassed & stuttering apologies. It was mortifying, but he totally ignored it & put me at ease & prevented my death by mortification 🤦🏻‍♀.
