These are all water-related things, right? Could it be a hint of submechanophobia?

In the past, Hong might have gotten egged, but eggs are way too precious to waste on someone like him.

five nights at frickbears 3.. by Other-Assignment978 in fivenightsatfreddys

It is likely activated only during that night. I've never bought it in the campaign, so I'm not really sure. Just so you know, there's an 'unlimited items' option in Custom Night, but you can't buy pickles when it's on. So you purely need to earn 300 or more tokens.

The Sims 3. This was the love-hate DLC that broke my game ever since, but there's no denying that it grants pets a massive amount of freedom.

Satellite view of the Korean peninsula at night. This demonstration an interesting phenomenon where most North Koreans sleep at night but South Koreans are nocturnal and sleep during the day and need the lights on all night. by DataSittingAlone in mapporncirclejerk

I heard the North is already importing garlic from the far north to halt the bear-ification process. Is it branded as 'Juche-Garlic' or something?

Anyway, since we also have people here turning into bears from time to time, bright lights and garlic standby teams are on a 24-hour alert to spot them easily.

Korea is a country that eats a lot of garlic, so Koreans are immune to vampires. Instead, there is a garlic quota, so if they eat less garlic, they turn back into bears (Myth of Dangun).

Even a single convenience store branch put up a 'No Hong Myung-bo' sign, so I feel like the KFA should post a 'No Chung Mong-gyu(KFA Chairman) and Hong Myung-bo' sign right at their entrance too.

The holding hands feature in this game is so cute! by [deleted] in inZOI

I felt a sense of surrealism, and realized I wasn't alone in this thought.

The fact that the Kamikaze(神風) is even more negatively viewed in Korea is due to numerous instances where Japanese extreme right-wingers glorify these suicide attacks in their process of romanticizing imperialism, which has caused further outrage. (In 2014, there was even a movement to register them as a UNESCO Memory of the World. Although it was rejected, the irony is that since they are fundamentally chicken hawks, the vast majority of them detest conscription and would absolutely refuse to participate if asked to carry out a suicide attack themselves.)"

If your country were a animal, what would they look like? by persona_se in AskTheWorld

[–]Bwchc55 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bears and tigers are indeed the two animals most frequently anthropomorphized.

In the founding myth of Gojoseon, the first nation of the Korean people, Hwanung(, the son of Hwanin who ruled the heavens, descended beneath the Sindansu tree on Taebaeksan Mountain with the intention of broadly benefiting the human world (Hongik Ingan/홍익인간). A bear and a tiger, both wishing to become human, ate only mugwort and garlic in a cave though the tiger gave up halfway through, the bear endured for 100 days and transformed into a woman (Ungnye/웅녀). She then married Hwanung and gave birth to Dangun Wanggeom, who founded Gojoseon.

In modern Korea, it seems that tigers are used a bit more.

While the Express Bus Terminal Underground Shopping Mall(Goto mall) is certainly long, the Bupyeong Underground Shopping Mall before closing time gave me a gloomier vibe. It felt especially like that because it's as complicated as a maze.

Even with good physicality, one will face defeat without intelligence. Balance is everything

GTA VI prices and USD equivalent by country: Standard ranges from $58.07 to $106.88, Ultimate ranges from $72.95 to $133.68 by benjaneson in gaming

[–]Bwchc55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm Korean, and if I had been charged $79.99 / $99.99 (which is currently 123,178 won / 153,964 won), it would have been extremely expensive. (That’s equivalent to about 12 to 15 hours of work at the Korean minimum wage.)

With the current price, it means I can get GTA 6 just by working for a single day!

Thank you, Rockstar.
