the "ask an asian" thread.

asians use ma-ling .. not spam .. spam is for hawaiians .. i think....

[Dick Danger]

A long time ago I rented a room from a couple of filipino women. They LOVED spam.

One of their most prized possessions was an old matchbook. They could tell some war stories. I miss them.

[red]

i once made a documentary on spam...........

maling is hard to find here in the states ...

Why do don't isn't is most of the population of east asia living in poverty while most of white Europe is doing comparatively well? Pick up a grammar book so you can spew racism in our Queen's English, creep.

In Eastern Asia, the governments are slightly more efficient and social services such as welfare, low income housing, social security, government issued food are either non existent or on very low priority. This in theory forces people to be more serious about their education,vocational skills, and career. Also the corresponding taxes are usually optional for the taxpayer. Also Capital gains taxes are eliminated in most cases. Places like Hong Kong and Japan only tax you anything after a certain milestone in salary as opposed to the US and Europe where you're taxed on your whole income. Japan and South Korea also enjoy the luxury of not having a huge portion of their taxes go to military spending thanks to the generosity of the US.

but hell, no need to act like you have never been outside asia ?

taking 2000+ pictures, wearing hideous t-shirts from sights and wearing socks inside sandals...

This description describes Caucasians from Western Europe, Israel, and Middle America.

Seriously. That's the quintessential American Tourist Stereo-Type right there.

I have this almost debilitating desire for fried rice and eggs and some sort of sea-faring creature all mixed together in a bowl, but I'm so sick that for two days I haven't even been able to drink water. Do you asians have any magical herbal remedies that will let me eat my fantasy food and not die?

[mis]

^^ Dont fucking click that.

Drink hot water with lemon and honey, or hot water with raw ginger.

Have some herbal chicken soup.

I clicked on that. Doesn't genki mean "happy"?

I'll never look at invertebrates the same way.

Sea cucumber. WTF.

[Servo2000]

I'm so glad I didn't click on that.

Seafaring creatures and sea cucumbers? Straight to hell?

It cannot be good.

I always wondered how they were sure she shit them all out, I guess you could feel something wiggling around in your ass, but still.

Here's a question:

Why is Milo the best drink in the history of mankind? And why is it so hard to find in the states?

[bangbangbang]

Isn't there something like T&T market in Seatown? I've seen Milo in white supermarkets like Safeway.

[azn8oi]

Milo is really easy to find in LA if you're in the right areassssssssss.

[Begåvningsreserven]

why do asians talk about food all the time?

[sybaritical]

They do more than just talk about it. Three quarters of the population of Thailand solely dedicate their entire waking existence to deep frying anything they can get their hands on.

[todesengel]

Seriously? I've seen it in QFC, but its the canned kind, and its crazy expensive. If I want the good powdered kind (the stuff made in Malaysia) I have to hunt around in Chinatown.

[junglejane]

i clicked on that link. My eyes will never be the same again.

[lil brown brother]

omg .. my eyes ... my eyessssssssssss ....

[sycamore no more]

Yes, i use to pick away as much of that skin as possible as a kid. But now I just eat it.

This sounds wrong on so many levels. Naughty naughty!

[digital_denim]

^^such a dirty mind for such a young boy.

Why is the new superchat on skype dominated by asian guys?

Why is the talk always about food? Can we invite some white people?

[DaBestSpoona]

what's funny about the food obsession is that most of us are the skinniest fuckers on the planet.
