angel opportunity posted:My best understanding of it is that they are brainwashed to believe that "CHINA" is something much greater than just some sovereign state like any other country in the world. It is the center of everything and the only thing that matters, and Taiwan is part of this greater thing regardless of its current political status. This is all just really goofy brainwashing though entirely removed from reality, so when they are talking about how it is part of China with a straight face, they are talking about this greater abstract idea of "CHINA" while when talking about the government of Taiwan, they are going back to that lower level of a regular country, acknowledging sort of that "Taiwan" has the trappings of a regular country, but knowing that it is entirely superceded by this grander concept they made up to save face and brainwash people with. The Germans had a similar identity crisis over just what it meant to be a German, but they were unifying from a bunch of squabbling states. I'm not sure what the PRC's deal is - they've got the mainland locked down nicely, so where does the need to stake a claim to other ethnic Chinese come from?

What I've heard it's the bus was full of people who had been coming back from the racetrack, had lost their money, and were angry at the driver for being like ten minutes late, so decided to yell at and insult the driver.

Grand Fromage posted:I was told the reason milk in Korea is so sweet is not because they intentionally sweeten it, but since everybody's lactose intolerant they use an enzyme to remove the lactose, and that process converts the lactose into glucose which tastes much sweeter. I was never able to verify this. I'm lactose intolerant and drink lactose-free milk in Australia and I can tell you it's only marginally sweeter, if it all.

Dizz posted:Are there any good Chinese teas for a starter? maybe ones that aren't so bitter as i have enough of that already. Give white tea a try, but learn how to make Chinese tea properly first. Don't just throw it in a teapot with some boiling water. I'm fortunate enough to live near a Chinese tea shop where I was able to watch and learn from the owner.

underage at the vape shop posted:Yeah that map has a lot of mountains and its still much slower than a plane. 3 hour on a train or 1 hour on a plane? To put this in the context of the unnamed country, the distance is roughly equivalent to laying a track from Portland to San Francisco to San Diego, ignoring terrain difficulties.

Where I live it's automatic loss of license for doing more than 45 km/h over the limit, in addition to fines and other possible charges. I thought Canada was a civilised country?

LimburgLimbo posted:Lol that guy also saw TokyoSam, the most awful garbage of Japan vloggers, and said ah man I want to be associated with this guy Tokyo Sam is awful garbage in real life, too. I had the misfortune of renting a room in his house, and despite paying for a month I just had to leave after two weeks. There were no clear flat surfaces in the kitchen to prepare food, and the sink was always full of dirty dishes which he'd brush his teeth over and spit the toothpaste on. I'm still angry at the (former) mutual friend who hooked me up with that place.

He rented the house and sublet the bedrooms. One night I came home and immediately tripped over, turned on the light and the genkan was full of bags of trash which he couldn't be bothered taking outside. Edit: I just watched a bit of that video and holy poo poo he's even fatter now than he was back then, I guess he really never did start that diet he was always about to begin GotLag fucked around with this message at 18:58 on Jun 29, 2018 |

underage at the vape shop posted:This is actually a really big problem, Australians are incredibly racist. if you haven't lived here you might not realise because the ones who are racist shitbags don't like other cultures so they aren't the ones you meet internationally. Australia has a sitting senator who in the 90s claimed we are being swamped by asians and has been non stop dribbling racist bullshit about asians, muslims, aboriginals and vaguely brown looking people since. This is really, really good for the CCP. When they buy off our politicians and pull all their normal tricks here, they get away with it. Noone can call it for what it is, because the second you do, you are branded as a racist and lumped in with the people from the article. By the way, that same dipshit senator put forward an "It's okay to be white" motion for vote https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-10-17/origins-of-its-ok-to-be-white-slogan-supremacists-united-states/10385716 Edit: lol one of the related articles is about another dipshit racist senator who used the phrase "final solution to the immigration problem" https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-08-15/fraser-anning-history-of-the-nazi-phrase-final-solution/10122812 GotLag fucked around with this message at 11:13 on Oct 19, 2018 |
