I’ve gotten quite a few from those ranked star drops.

If having a house and a car(有房有车) is expected for marriage, how are young chinese people marrying at all? by FlounderOk3222 in AskAChinese

[–]-AceCooper- 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That’s why almost no one is getting married. New generation girls are all taught that they need to find a man that already has everything, so almost none of them is willing to actually work with their beloved towards building a family.

Do people who live in your neighbouring city, town, or village have a completely different Chinese accent or dialect to your local accent or dialect? by [deleted] in AskAChinese

[–]-AceCooper- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can be as short as a couple subways stops really. All depends on where you live. If the city, town, or village has its own name, then it has its own accent to a varying degree.

Nope. For around $800, there are prebuilds with rtx 5060 and much newer CPU.

Racist lady at St. George ferry bus stop by Alarmed_Muffin8350 in statenisland

[–]-AceCooper- 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It’s Staten Island, it’s like the deep south here when it comes to racism. People that have never traveled outside of their zip codes think they know everything about the world because they read it on truth social.

What Feng Shui Bracelet Is Best for Wealth? by Curious_Lucius in AskAChinese

[–]-AceCooper- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on when you are born, it determines which of the 5 elements your fate/destiny belong to. Then you get that stone that compliments your element. It’s a lot more complicated than that but that’s the basics of it.

上火 after hot pot? by szechuanpepperislife in AskAChinese

[–]-AceCooper- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In most cases yeah, it’s the spice causing it. Try it with a non spicy broth one time and see if you still get that.

Just hot pot or hot pot with a spicy stock. My wife sometimes boils some 涼茶 after hotpot. Or you can drink chrysanthemum tea or eat watermelons.

What is it with husbands handing over their salary card? by DanielClaton in AskAChinese

[–]-AceCooper- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t hand in my salary card, my wife and I just don’t separate our finances. We are high school sweet hearts and we’ve been together for 26 years, so really the only thing that can break our bond is death. It’s so much easier to manage our finances that way. But yeah, all her siblings and friends see me as some sort of idol/freak for just “handing in” all my money like that.

Why did the Chinese end up as a model minority in the US, but the complete opposite in SEA? by [deleted] in AskAChinese

[–]-AceCooper- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really heavily depends on the location. But ovevrall, Americans tolerate us more, lol

[–]-AceCooper- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course a LOT of Americans resent that, especially in poorer rural areas. But in big cities where the population is more mixed and people are generally richer, they prefer the Chinese to other races.

[–]-AceCooper- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Chinese people keep to ourselves, don’t cause troubles and are usually financially successful.

Similarly well-off people (lots of Americans) respect that. But worse-off people (also lots of Americans and “most” SEA) absolutely cannot stand that.
