I have no idea, I haven't heard about any of that, my parents don't believe in that, but they heard of other asians who do.

There's a reason why there's a buddist statue in every home.

I don't know the whistle at night. Have to ask my mom.

I knew the answer to all of these. I was just testing the waters see if it's common knowledge. Everything coincided for the most part.

I just told my wife about the window and mirror thing.. Literally scared the shit out of her haha!

Yeah, the legend was that, mirrors was a portal to the living for the spirits and basically the windows open (If someone in the household is about to pass away, or has passed away, a bird will fly in and out, to carry/guide their souls.)

Pretty creepy to be honest.

This is why I have only 1 mirror in my house, and it's the bathroom, and never open any windows.

Give your Asian friends "indoor bird feeder. for New Year. Keep windows open. Birds flood house. Hilarity ensues.

***NEWSFLASH***

I googled it

http://dialectblog.com/2013/09/19/or...f-a-semi-slur/

"In BrE, when Asian is used to refer to a person, culture or cuisine, it is most usually referring to someone or something South Asian (i.e. India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka). In the US and, it turns out, Australia, Asian typically refers to people/things from East Asia (China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Thailand, etc.)."


But how did the word become offensive to begin with? Etymologically-speaking, “oriental” is hardly pejorative, deriving from a French term which basically translates to “Eastern” (and still exists as French “orientale“). In other words, one might describe it as a Latinate antonym of “Westerner,” a term which Europeans and Americans take little offense at. Of course, etymology little influences our politeness norms.

oriental or asian ? hmm better than being called Cream of sum yung gi

Or maybe I would respond, oh so you're occidental?

Shut the fuck up- were Asian. No one made you more special

I have seen that many Filipinos go either way for the "Asian" or "Pacific Islander" representing.

One time there was a Filipino guy who yelped something along the lines of "This Chinese restaurant is really good, blah blah blah, I know because I am Asian."

I thought it was funny because he is about as much Chinese as John Smith from Tallahassee.

I heard that Taiwan has really good Thai tea.

South China Sea Islander requires too many syllables.

Probably when they started trading them and then ended up losing $127 million gambling.

The funny thing is I call one of my good Filipino friends Pacific Islander and that he's not Asian because he gets mad about it. IM ASIAN! No you're Pacific Islander

No, I must admit that I did not. However, based on his synopsis, I doubt it would have ended the streak.

how about this

pee is 95% water.

The rest is 2.5% urea and a 2.5% combination of salt, hormones, nutrients, and creatine.

unless you are seriously ill, or have a transmittable illness,
it's probably better for you than bottled water !


except in the desert or if in a lifeboat
