the "ask an asian" thread.

[GiZMO]

My childhood friend had the dream of him and I growing up as old chinks (he is chinese korean no racist) drinking sake and singing karaoke. Do those JP businessmen have high alc tolerance cuz they drink like every night out?

[MataLeao]

Indians are the superior Asian race...why is that?

[sidneylo]

yo any of you guys alchohol intolerant

sorry but that shit always looks kinda pussy.

had a old friend of mine throw up his pizza after two glasses of wine at a party

personally i can hold my liquor, but that may be because my dad was an alchie which is nothing to be proud of

That's why you don't punk out and go around drinking 2 glasses of wine that you shouldn't be drinkin!!!!

Learn to be resourceful and drink appropriately with food.

Letters from Iwojima for the win!

i watched this with my japanese friend and his dad in their living room.. even though im 1/2 asian it was kinda awkward

[Guest doubletap]

I'm sad to say I've actually seen the Fast and the Furious 3, twice. I don't really know why.

I'm looking at imdb now and it says Keiichi Tsuchiya played the part of 'Old Fisherman' in that.. don't even remember him...

he was fishing on the harbor when all the cars came drifting by... he then laughs in amusement. I think it was when they were training.

[mr fluffernutter]

i watched Romper Stomper yesterday

you people kicked a lot of ass in that movie

[dismalfuture]

Why thank you diamonds. You were good in Terminator 2.

Why do filipino people like to take so many pictures?

[GiZMO]

I want to say that is all fobs in general (not constrained to asia) but it is true even the filipino-americans are horrible and love to keep their memories in the form of photographs.

[ipractice]

Why do asian people like to take so many pictures and then do absolutely nothing with them and leave them on their digital cameras?

Fixed.

And I don't know why we do this.

I used to think smoking was cool til I saw that in like the 6th grade. Then I'd punch kids trying to peer pressure me into cigarettes.

Smoking is cool. The lung cancer issue, etc. isn't though. If anyone ever invents healthy cigs, I think they'd be a very rich man.

[mizanation]

they have made healthier cigarettes but the anti-smoking people don't want that either.

i have switched to snus which is not really cool at all, but takes care of my nicotine fix.

[Vitamian]

Smoking is Le Cool, as the French would call it. Personally, I think the cancer risk makes it more appealing; a big Fuck You to political correctness and sanitized Modern Life.

Snus is hardly healthier than cigarettes. In fact, snus causes rather nasty bouts of mouth cancer and such and it's an ugly habit. By far, the healthiest form of tobacco is nasal snuff.

[superBobo]

^^ the link between snus and mouth cancer isnt proven actually. Snus is alot healthier than smoking, since it doesnt effect the lungs obviously. Alot of pro athletes in Sweden uses snus.

I must have been thinking of dipping and chewing tobacco which seem to be American habits.

im sorry.

was this a joke?

[projectdenim]

He could be serious. Some people think in strange ways and wanting to die earlier, before you get wrinkly could potentially be an "excuse" for smoking.

For some reason, I think I'm one of the only Filipino guys in Toronto that smoke. I always see tons of Chinese, Korean, Japanese, etc.

[swooc]

im with vitamian. i know i wont smoke if cigarettes were healthy. has anyone tryed these cigarettes from china that blows out clean air (i forgot the name of them). do they carry the health risks of normal cigarettes?

81% of asians are korean?

yeah, american dip and chew is horrible for you.

snus is steam cured and there are only a few cases of it causing oral cancer. same as cigars.

this is actually a proven fact. many kids smoke because of the "cool" factor. and a big part of that cool factor is the risk of death. and not caring about it.

i guess the rebel type image of the likes of james dean is still with us.

[Vitamian]

Smoking is a very estheticized action, very stylized. It's no wonder that smoking has been fetishized by those who don't even smoke, like Hedi Slimane.

[Servo2000]

Smoking is too stylish to die.

[Guest suckdick]

fuck u smoker u smells real bad

[sleazie ninja number 47]

i love chain smoking, and then smelling my knuckles later on in day or night, and then think to myself, "damn, my knuckles smell bad/really cool."
