Good to know. Archer taught me Canadians pronounce Z as Zed.

Pat has already said it's neither viper nor mumbo.

Heh, after many years of my parents not giving gifts, they decided to surprise me and my brothers this year. They gave me a card with $100 cash in it. I'll take it!

Where's the giftcard for?

The thing about your point number one is that the stereotype is probably as old as when the Chinese first immigrated to this country which was what, like 100 years ago? The accuracy of the stereotype in the past to what it is/was when you lived there may be vastly different. Just for the fact that the stereotype was so prevalent, that maybe culturally they did everything they could to dispel it. But thank you for the info.

Eh, it's not like I can do better.

Oh Jesus Christ, what fresh hell is this. I didn't actually click play, I just saw the thumbnail.

Dude, I don't want to download a video. But HI GREENY'S HAND

Damn, the one guy with the Costanza avatar has to one-up all the "Happy Festivus" posts with.... that.

American-English R's are even quite different from British-English R's. From what I can tell British-English R's are more similar to German R's than American R's. We Americans are like the only ones who would say an ending r with that rrrrrrrrrrrr rather than a kind of -ah or -uh kind of thing. British person talking about 70s hard rock: "You know who was a great guitah playuh? Michael Schenkuh." German person: "You know who was a great guitah playah? Michael Schenkeh." American person: "You know who was a great guitarrrrrrrrrr playerrrrrrrrrr? Michael Schenkerrrrrrrrrrrrr."

Oh well, thanks for trying.

God, I want to ask more questions but it feels kinda xenophobic to ask the questions I want to ask.

Oh! You still talk to her? Where is she from?

Who's Cookie? You mean @empty? Is he a huge weeb?

@bnmjy you self describe as both, so this is especially to you. So A Christmas Story is now playing for a 24 hour loop on TBS. There is that one scene in the Chinese restaurant with the workers singing "Deck the harrs with barrs of horry, fa ra ra ra ra, ra ra ra ra..." So my question is: How accurate is this stereotype to CHINESE people specifically? I remember on the old boards many years ago someone said this tends to happen with people from Japan because they don't have the L sound in their language. I am by no means an expert on Japan or its language, but of all the Japanese names I've seen and heard in anime, video games, video game end credits, and Japanese metal bands seems to corroborate this. But this stereotype is commonly applied to Chinese people too. But I am wondering if that is even accurate. The Chinese have many names with the L in it, such as Ling, Lee, and Liu. Why would they have trouble with that sound? Is it just the old "all Asians are the same" racism? Or is there something I'm not understanding here?

I don't. O_o

Misaka has never been a mod or admin. Whatever powers he had, he hasn't had them in a long time now.

Well she's going to be hitting the eggnog.

lol oh. I've had keys do shit like that, I get it.

Misaka doesn't have that power.

@Phillies Did you put "Unemployed" as your custom title yourself, or is that a joke a mod/admin played?

I've seen people write "too" as the number 2 before, but I think this is the first time I've seen it written as a Roman numeral...

First time I've seen a pic of you. Is this the first one you've posted to this community?

What is all over your beard?

Yes, if you said you were the illegitimate child of Gene Simmons, I'd believe you.
