Just like metric and imperial. I sucked at metric because growing up learned a retarded ass system. Makes sense to me.

You can learn the metric system easily if you do enough drugs.

Arabs are technically Asian. Actually in Europe, when people use the word "Asian," they are generally speaking to Middle Eastern people.



well, might as well call it Occident and Orient then, i reckon.

BTW; i missed your post earliers, um... i'll definitely 'af to check out them parts... of those books 'n all mam.

What European country are you referring to? I live in Europe and we call Asians "Asians" and people from the Middle East are usually referred to by their country of origin, or they are called Arabs if it's unclear where they are from. I mean, it's really easy to see if someone is actually (eastern) Asian or if they ethnically originate in the Middle East.

Americans don't like the metric system because it came from France. It's a nice theory, isn't it. The only problem is Americans have no clue what the metric system is, let alone where it originated,

They're not all as intelligent as you racially perceive them to be. Years ago, my older brother was dating a Chinese chick. She seemed completely normal; she was a good socializer, and she was good at mundane tasks. However, she had an enormous problem with empathy and other vicarious common sense. She had a pet cat in her apartment. She kept it locked in a closet 24/7 with no light whatsoever. The cat despised human beings. I wonder why? She also had two pet turtles. My brother convinced her to give the turtles to me. When she brought them over to my house, she had them both in a fish bowl that was so small, barely bigger than the turtles, that she had to stack them on top of each other. I was pissed that she brought them over stacked on top of one another. Later I found out that she didn't just ship them over stacked on top of each other, but that was how she kept them 24/7! They f**king lived in that condition! :frown: This girl was a unique case, but ever since I knew her, I stopped seeing Asians as more intellectually inclined than any other race. Basically what I'm saying is that, sometimes people have greater intellect in certain areas, and they are severely lacking in others, but they're not all that way. Every race is equal.

That doesn't surprise me she was Chinese, China literally tortures animals before serving them as food, because Chinese culture believes that the more an animal suffers the better they taste.

Since you mentioned turtles, check this out.... live turtle, frog, and fish keychains. They eventually die after about a month of no oxygen or food, but this is the kind of thing that serves as "good luck" in Chinese culture: http://www.snopes.com/critters/crusader/keyrings.asp

The Chinese, on the other hand, are some of the most horrifyingly aggressive drivers I've ever seen. It's quite terrifying.




LOLLLL I know what you're talking about. I remember watching a demo video of what driving would be like in 2050, when self-driving electric cars were taking place. And they showed like 5 lanes of cars all intersecting each other symmetrically at intersections, instead of stopping at traffic lights everybody would simply go into the intersection at the same time and the cars would know to avoid each other.

I saw that, and I was like, "Hey, that's just like Shanghai!" :lolsy:

They are aggressive, and never use traffic lights, but amazingly they never crash into each other.

:lol: that's fucked up.  sounds like a lack of intra/interpersonal intelligence, a type overlooked by standard intelligence tests and our young culture in general.  so while she may possess these seemingly psycho traits, she still could have a high IQ.

I had more than one person say to me, that when they began to understand some of the basic morals in Chinese culture, they were horrified.

Rice? Really?
Well the OP was entertaining. Made me laugh.

Chinese culture has parts that are equally fucked up as parts of Western Culture, we just tend to ignore those darker sides of our culture.
And it's not like the more horrific practices in Chinese culture are widespread anymore, just as with our culture.

Based on my watching of British TV, it seems like over there "Asian" is usually assumed to mean people from places like India and Bangladesh. In the US and Canada it seems to be more likely people will assume you're talking about people from places like China, Japan or Korea.
