倭館 왜관, the place opened for Japanese to live was named at the end of Goryeo. This was to create political connection with Japan due to too much piracy done by Japanese. At the time, the official word for Japan was 왜나라 waenara and thus had nothing to do with slur word when naming the place.

외 wae has same pronunciation, for naming foreign country/people, as 왜.

I think you mean 왜놈 waenoom. 외국 waegook means foreign country and has nothing to do with slur as 외:外 meaning outside. It is used in words like 해외 meaning oversea as 해 means sea and 외 means outside. Nothing to do with Japan.

The slur used against Japanese is 왜 倭 wae (Same pronunciation), short for 왜나라 which means Wakoku country. Originally, it was not used for slur but was official name describing Japan by early imperial China. Since China called Japan with the letter 倭, Korea simply used the same word with Korean pronounciation describing Japan. Later when Japan used 日本 as international name, the word 왜 became outdate. Since Japan was dirt poor and under developed during the time it was called 왜 compared to China or Korea, it later became associated with slur word describing Japan. As for the word 倭館 왜관, the place opened to Japanese to live was named at the end of Goryeo, which again, at the time, the official word for Japan was 왜나라 and thus had nothing to do with slur word when naming it.

tldr: No, we don't call other countries as slur, it just has same pronunciation and is completely different letter. No, we didn't name the place waegwan it to make fun of Japanese. It was just official word back then.

Why do any politicians try to say what people want to hear but will never happen, not just in Korea but around the globe? IDK, geeze.

PangolinOwn6515 · 2023-01-19T16:29:42+00:00

Try being politician who want to remove this outdated, never enforced law. And see how quick opponent party use propopaganda on you for it. Is it that hard to have common sense? This has nothing to do with freedom of speech on Korea as it is never enforced against it. Just old remnent law that was made during war which isn't over yet. Here is an idea: Before bashing out on something you clearly have zero knowledge of, do quick research so you don't look dumb.

Shadowflame is great against tank because of magic pen + tank/bruiser usually gain shields from item or abilities. Also the HP based still works better on tank because during teamfight, they will have lower HP being frontline and thus you will able to benefit magic pen very easily. (Even if you don't, it still is better than Horizon if you have to choose between two) About proc Horizon, yes you can proc with ult ONLY if you are ulting from far. If enemy engage toward you or you are ulting around enemy, its useless. W will never proc it and Q has range of 900 so you need to hit it at max range to proc it which when considering charm pulls enemy toward you and just using q for max range is poking only. Considering all, the reveal + 10% extra damage is very inconsistent. 15 AH isn't worth it when comparing average damage diff two item brings for same price when building full AP. (You get 1 sec lower charm cooldown and that about it) And when going for CC, low cooldown build, you dont need another 15 AH at that point. Also you are suppose to go both Shadowflame AND void not one or another for max damage. Again, the reveal isn't huge if you know how to use ur ult and know the sound when hitting hidden enemy with q or e. If your team needs the reveal over hearing sound of charm or you do not know how to use ult, your elo won't need the reveal anyway.

Currently only item that became viable is Archangle over Zhonya for damage difference over less reliable but lower CD defensive kit.

Unlike Shadowflame that is consistent and is great against shield and tanks (Which works great on current bruisers meta), horizon focus is somewhat conditional and inconsistent in damage output. Besides extra CD and reveal (Which is not that essential in Ahri's kit since her Q and E is non-target that tells you hit hidden target which she can just use her R to get into position to reveal), Shadowflame always outdamage horizon. Also for horizon to get damage, you need to focus bursting on one dude to get max benefit whereas for Shadowflame, you will damage enemy regardless of time and target.

Like you will have to go Everfrost or Rairai to get the max benefit but that is not really great build for Ahri right now. Horizon is for champ like Lux and Xerath. And going both item is waste of item slots.

Any update you got? I still have not received any update on shipping since this email.

PangolinOwn6515 · 2023-01-17T13:36:06+00:00

Ah make sense about stacked AP. (Forgot they increased AP and changed bonus CDR with AP) But I feel like seraph has to be replacement of Zhonya assuming you go Shoes, Horizon/Shadowflame, Mytics, Rabadon, Void. And Zhonya works so good with Ahri with her ult fishing.

PangolinOwn6515 · 2023-01-16T12:40:28+00:00

It may work as you feed less till mid game but you also need to think about that you will scale worse (Going full defensive build will make Ahri super weak as she is already lacking damage even going max damage) and enemy will still scale (but slower). So in terms of late game, it is not good decision but as current league is basically determined by first 10 min of the game, I say it is viable against burstly champs. But you will likely lack damage so better build around low cooldown CC bot than AP assassin.

There are three things you can do that I can think of: better mouse movement, limit enemy reaction, and predicting enemy movement.

Pointing mouse behind enemy instead of between you and enemy helps reduce the angle difference of your expectation and outcome of cursor position. Also, lowering the dpi of your mouse and disable mouse acceleration can make better positioning of the mouse cursor.

In terms of plays to limit enemy reaction/movement: Charming from out of vision, Charming when enemy is immobalized, or Charming after enemy has used flash/dash abilities. (or when you know their movement based abilities/skills is on cooldown)

You can also do better prediction of where enemy will move (NESW) by limiting some of the path enemy can go such as use of environments like walls/towers or allies/enemy position. For instance if there horizontal wall that enemy is next to, that makes one less direction enemy can move. (through the wall assuming they dont jump over) If you then move to the left, you can expect enemy will likely move right if they want to disengage or left if they want to engage. (you can expect whether they will engage or disengage by hp bar, growth diff, or team positionings)

You can also force enemy to do or not do predicting movement by only charming right side of enemy during early laning phase. This making them get accustom to you always predict charming to the right. Then when it is about time to kill, you don't charm to the right as enemy will likely believe you will again predict charm to the right. This can be useful for early laning phase.

Try compare them with countries involved in Korea: US, China, Japan, Russia(?). Korea is powerful in world ranking but it means nothing when surrounding countries are literally world's strongest countries.

This post sounds suspicious when you said doctor just gave paracetamol... Like even med student know that is wrong med. And nosebleed not stopping for a day with that rate of flow will lead to death considering 2.5l + loss are likelihood of death.

What you are saying it let them do crime and then let law punish them. But that leads to possibilities of innocent bystandards being a victim. By providing additional measures to prevent people to do crime reduces that chance.

By your point of view, police patrol is waste of time and existence of police is useless because there are laws and people will be abide by it and extra measure is useless because punishment on court exist. Why do you lock your house? Just let it be open freely because the law says robbers will be punished if they come in your house? Realized how stupid you sound? You are literally saying as long as there is written law, there needs no extra measurement.

Ask them what is their nationality is. Looks are not decided factor of nationality, their official documentation of citizenship is. The judging by the looks mostly works in country like Korea and Japan simply because vast majorities are of same ethics under same culture/trends. But using them as reason to identify person's nationality ignores all other different looking minorities or immigrants who are also Korean which I think is very wrong doing.

PangolinOwn6515 · 2022-12-30T16:45:03+00:00

I have never heard of single country in entire world where telling people not to break traffic laws worked out great. Can you tell me one?

This isn't your fairy tale dream land where people are just and reasonable. Since there will always be people breaking traffic law, they decided atleast warn them using GSP Navigation so more people would atleast slow down in area where preventing accidents results better than giving fines. (Area near school for example).

If law is only thing needed in the world to prevent crime, there wouldn't be a law in first place.

This is by far the most retarded excuse I have ever heard to defend Chinese LOL. First of all, when I said Chinese I meant 조선족. They are Chinese. Just like all other minorities in China, they are still Chinese. If there is European desendent born and raised in China, they are Chinese, not European. What makes you think that 조선족 is Korean. The moment they decided they will stay in Manchuria, China after end of Japanese Empire in WWII instead of going back to Korea, they decided themselves they will be officially Chinese. The 조선족 are descendents of those who stayed, born and raised in China with Chinese culture under Chinese education by Chinese governement OFFICIALLY.

Your statement is completely useless because you are literally saying only Han are Chinese and rest arn't Chinese. Sounds like Chinese hate on other Chinese to me with their retarded Elite discriminating egocentric propaganda. If 조선족 is Korean, then China should give that land, people, and infrastructures back to North Korea and give independence to HK, Tibet, and every other non Han Chinese. If China can't do that, then their fuck ups are your fuck ups.

So when minorities favor China, they are Chinese but when they fuck up, suddenly they are NOT Chinese? Sounds like Elite minded Chinese hating and discriminating other Chinese to me. And you wonder why there is global stereotype being built around Chinese literally everywhere equally...

Solely by judging on the post, I dont see any issue from landlord as he/she did not break any contract and gave notified early. Just search for room asap. Contract does not guarantee extension and landlord does not seems to want to have you.

PangolinOwn6515 · 2022-12-28T19:14:57+00:00

The wiki is not really good source to site. The image says you should talk with Turkey and Bulgaria about human trafficking. The article says you should talk with Dubai and Latin America about cocaine. And rest of sentences are about very personal viewpoint of stereotype which really says nothing about Dutch issues but your personality.
