I lived in San Francisco for two years near a church that would hand out free food to the needy every month or so and I never saw anyone ever than elderly Asian people in line. They would line up all the way down the block hours before the church opened with those patented old lady folding shopping carts. One day I was running late and actually saw what they were handing out and it was basically a single small grocery bag with a head of lettuce and maybe 2-3 cans of beans. Hundreds of people would line up for hours, sometimes in the rain to get maybe 5$ of free food

There was another huge dickhead that I actually liked because for the most part he was only aggressive when people wouldn't leave him the gently caress alone to do heroin and lay around in squalor. He od'd in a place where nobody found him until it was too late one day and the resus failed. Almost every medic in the area had given this guy narcan or a full workup at some time or another so it was kind of like a distant relative's death being announced at a big Thanksgiving dinner or something in the day or so after he passed.

At the little plaza by my university we had some Chinese guy who decided "ahahaha gently caress you mom" and left his elderly (possibly senile) and wheelchairbound mother to panhandle in the area, all the while coming back to collect her at night in his Prius. Also the dude was legit schizo which seems to fall into the unspoken rule of Asians never getting mental illness treated or even encouraging their family to seek treatment.

My wife's rich aunt and uncle are pissed because they bought an apartment in some "Up and Coming" development outside of Beijing only to find out that the address is some row of crappy brick warehouses, and the developers ran off with all the deposits they got from hundreds of investors. They're saying they are out over 1/2 a million RMB (possibly more) for a single apartment. I was wondering why they would admit to this (losing face) but I think they are telling people this because the gain in face is more than the loss due to the fact that this is really just a drop in the bucket to them*. Sort of like showing off how rich you are by lighting a cigar with a $100. *This is the same aunt and uncle who flew to Hong Kong when he got a promotion and blew upwards of $50k USD on Rolex watches and LV luggage. This is also one of the few examples of Grandparents treating a granddaughter better than a grandson, because "they are rich and will take the best care of us". My wife's grandparents on her father's side have spend every cent they own (and can guilt out of their other children) on this granddaughter, because they are going to be taken care of so well by them. Both are still waiting for this amazing lifestyle to begin after 20+ years of sucking up, and are likely going to die within the next 5 or so, since they are both a year or two above their expected life expectancy.

I used to work as a croupier in London. Lots of the casinos there will give out vouchers at certain times of day, usually a £1 free bet on roulette. So at 9am every morning about 100 old chinese people would show up, place their bets, get a free coffee and then move onto the next casino. We worked out that if they hit all the casinos everyday they should get about £300 or so a month, and one of the casinos would give out free lunches too. We really liked these guys though. Usually mornings there's just a few miserable middle aged men in the casino, the old chinese folks where always well behaved and the ones who spoke English were pretty funny so it brightened up the morning. They always tipped if they won too (tipping in casinos in the Uk was only legalised in 2009(?) so tips still aren't too common). It got them out for the day aswell, most old people in the UK just sit at home being miserable waiting to die. Jimmy Little Balls fucked around with this message at 06:48 on Oct 15, 2016 |

Yes If you give them 2 IV they bang awake about fifteen seconds later in cold sweats, shaking, racked with the real dope sickness Suboxone has narcan in it but it's the part of suboxone that no one likes. There's nothing nice or therapeutic about narcan, apart from it being basically an antidote to opiate overdose / a life saver with few damaging side effects.

Deceitful Penguin posted:Hahaha, sorry dawg, was only teasin' This has been an interesting conversation, and I've followed it, and here are my thoughts and a lot of my dumb words, not that anyone cares. Nothing in any of these anecdotes are that different from crap that foreigners in China have to deal with on a daily basis. In fact, "do you know karate?" to an Asian is actually pretty tame to "I hate the Japanese" or "don't hire niggers", which I've heard time and time again. People are like "can you believe someone bowed me to me one time! Wtf!" How do you think the guy from Argentina feels when people drive by him on motorbikes and literally scream at him HALLLOUUUUUUU six times a week? My old best friend from Germany made a comment that was like "do they realIze in Germany I don't say hello?" to which I would now respond "they don't even realize you're German, only that you're white" For this, and for how many people there are in China, there are far more instances of blatant racism in my opinion. It literally never stops in China. Where it differs, though, is that many of these people sharing their stories are Asian-Americans...meaning it is coming from their countrymen. It may not happen as much, I really can't know for sure, but I can't imagine how it feels coming from someone from your country of birth. I understand I am an outsider in China. They don't want me here. I'm not welcome. I can speak the language, I can eat in the lovely alleys where they serve dumpling soup, I can participate in their holidays, but Chinese people believe because i am not Han Chinese, I am different from them. It's frustrating for me, because I don't want to be. I would LOVE if people would ignore the fact I'm foreign and not make me a topic of conversation in front of me the second I walk into the room, but my blond hair and blue eyes aren't going anywhere. I guess what it boils down to is that we will never be able to rid the world of dumb racists...ever. The USA is a multicultural society but you still have a huge divide along racial lines. "Can you believe a guy bowed to me?" doesn't seem as bad as "I'm terrified my kid will get blown away at a traffic stop", but it's still probably frustrating...just as being a foreigner in China can be. China is not a multicultural society, it's like 90% Han Chinese. and if you're not Chinese, everyone KNOWS you're an outsider and treats you as such. Whereas in the states we are supposed to be a multicultural society, poo poo man city just missed a penalty
