  • Why would anyone doordash food from a place that already does delivery?

    Jump

  • I ordered from Pizzahut's website and they just sent it to doordash...

    I think I remember once Dominos (not sure if I remember correctly) was busy so instead of sending their regular delivery driver, they just sent it to doordash to complete the delivery... 🤷‍♂️

    Everything is doordash now

    Chinese restaurants

    Ramen places

    Literally everything

    Edit: Also even BESTBUY uses Doordash now... (do not order electronics delivery through bestbuy, even if you use their website, they will still send it to doordash)

  • Sometimes I hear the people next door... and then I'm like oh shit, have they been hearing all the yelling in our house this whole time?

    Jump

  • Too late, I think the entire neighborhood might already know us as "Oh, it's THAT family that always have arguments in the house"

    The thing is, we're East Asian so this just further reinforce their "Asian strict parenting" stereotype in their minds 💀

    (or perhaps nobody cares that much since they've already expected this much yelling due to that stereotype)

  • Sometimes I hear the people next door... and then I'm like oh shit, have they been hearing all the yelling in our house this whole time?

    Jump

  • Lol, I thought the walls were more noise-isolating...

    unfortunately, Bose did not make these walls

    Like I don't hear neighbors often unless I really put my ears close to the wall outlet and hear their tv on the other side...

    The only time I heard it when the parent was yelling at their kid next door...

  • At what point does a person become an "adult"?

    Jump

  • their intents if they worked for the government

    "You can't shoot me, I'm still a child at heart, that'd be a war crime!"

  • I think the biggest disservice that I received from my US Public School education was being taught that the civil rights movement was something from the past.

    Jump

  • I actually had a teacher that pointed out the 13th amendment prison exemption.

    She was also a black muslim, as in actually wearing a hijab. (the point of this being that it was diverse af and not just white teachers)

    Also focused a lot on COINTELPRO and the spying on civil right leaders that type of stuff.

    And the Jim Crow stuff, sharecropping... etc...

    Also that the emancipation proclamation itself probably did not free any enslaved people, since they only applied to rebelling states, which would obviously ignore it.

    (Philly btw... my school was rated so bad btw... like 2/10 on the greatschool .org thing lots of fightings and stuff, the point being that its not some rich neighborhood)

    But they taught almost nothing about Asian Americans... :(

    Just a brief mention and that's all, probably why racism towards Asian Americans are still so common and still socially acceptable... :(

    YSK: The French language is projected to be the world's most widely spoken language in the world by 2050

  • Booo, fr🤮nch. I rather have it be Mandarin-Chinese so I don't have to learn more stuff xD

    I love Russia and Putin, but I'd rather live in another country

    Jump

  • What happened to last time when you said you hated russia and the govenment?

    Did the FSB barge in your apartment and took over this account, or like... did you just come back from getting reeducated in a gulag?

  • Is it impolite to ask someone about their roots?

    Jump

  • As a Chinese American, I don't find it offensive. I mean at this point I kinda just embraced my background, I mean I still have a Chinese name as my legal name and I still speak Cantonese and Mandarin (with very basic fluency tho)

    Unless you say it like: "Oh, your English is very good! Where are you from?" and the person clearly has a native-accent 🙄 (don't do it like this)

    (hasn't happened yet, usually people are either much more overt like using racial slurs, or just not display racism at all)

    I think you should just ask something like: "What is your ancestral background?" more direct and IMO sounds a lot better. But I think the context is key, you need to feel the vibe in the room is good before you ask that, don't just walk up to someone and ask that as the first question.

    But I was born in China, so I am technically speaking not "from" here, but if you are in the US and ask an Asian person born and grew up in the US that question, they might not like it. You should probably frame it like: "Hey I'm just curious, what is your ancestral background?"

  • I rejected a girl recently and she is depressed but says it's not my fault. Help?

    Jump

  • Are y'all from the same couple-pair? lmao

  • If the Führer Knew

    Jump

  • No joke, Chinese dramas almost always portray the Emperor as benevolent, any problem is just because of the evil eunichs, evil sons wanting to steal the throne away from the good kindhearted benevolent son and rightful heir; or it's the evil couping relatives, generals, or the many wives scheming, etc... that are causing problems in the Empire... The Emperor is never at fault... 🤦‍♂️

  • Canada should ditch English as an official language and become 100% francophone

    Jump

  • You don't need a lot of population, if you do the imperialism game correctly, you can spread your influence very far and wide.

    Lets ignore the language part and just talk about the American Media... it's influence is spread all over the world. And the US military... it's so dominant that it's one of the most powerful militaries in the world, if not the most powerful one... and has bases all over the world... being able to invade any small nation as it wishes to... US population isn't even a lot lol.

    (Not that I support imperialism, just sayin')

    I don't think France can really even do any imperialism these days...

  • Not to get into a debate. If God is so omnipotent and above humans why does he or she have emotions? Like smiting or being upset or wrath?

    Jump

  • IQ =/= EQ

  • Canada should ditch English as an official language and become 100% francophone

    Jump

  • French is projected to be the most common language internationally by the end of the century, due to population growth in Africa and the stagnation of population growth basically everywhere else.

  • Why do customs place a cap on 10,000 USD for undeclared cash?

    Jump

  • My mom got robbed in broad daylight and they took nearly $1000 from her... (okay idk why the fuck she was carrying so much cash, but that's whole another story)

    She was literally on the way to the bank...

    Then again, we are Asian American and non-Asians in America loves to target us... and obviously cops don't give a fuck.

    We need to bring back the rooftop Koreans to patrol the streets, police is useless

  • Why do customs place a cap on 10,000 USD for undeclared cash?

    Jump

  • Tbf you're more likely to get robbed by random people in broad daylight than encountering a cop that will civil asset forfeiture you, so its just bad idea to have lots of cash regardless of country.

  • Do babies have fight-or-flight response? Cause they can't do either.

    Jump

  • lmfao...

    that was like nearly 2 decades ago, yea I got scared eventually and went back home... I still have that mental image of being in that plaza and walking towards the direction of home, and saw mom with a bunch of cops just looking around, then my mom saw me

    it was before my family emigrated, when we were in Guangzhou, China

    My mom later told me there was (allegedly) a lot of kidnappings in China and I could've gotten kidnapped... 👀

  • Do babies have fight-or-flight response? Cause they can't do either.

    Jump

  • A baby might not be able to, but 6 year old me ran away from home when my older brother was chasing me around the apartment and I felt scared and like... I just ran for the door...

    was outside wandaring for hours...

    scariest day of my life...

    (mom called the police and they were just searching the neighborhood)

  • What's the best way to tell a kid that their dog died?

    Jump

  • You know how some medications numbs your emotions... so what happens if you're on those medications and you receive news of a close family member dying, do you like... not have any emotions over it?

    Jump

  • lmfao

    Nah I would use a throwaway if I was actually doing that. I said so much shit on this account that its very easy to deanonymize.

    I feel like the world before literacy became a common thing feels a lot "smaller"/"blurry", things are more ephemeral, relying only on memory. Literacy makes the world feel "bigger"/"more detailed"...

    Laws basically treats your mind and your body as two separate entities, since suicide isn't treated as an excercise of free will and self determination, but as an assault by the mind against the body.
