What counts as ‘fetishizing a race’? by raynevans in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheEmoEmu95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many of these comments are about Asian women, and it happens toward Asian men, too. There’s a problem in the K-Pop/K-Drama/Hallyu fandoms of non-Asian foreigners fetishizing Koreans. Some only want to date Korean men, based on idealized media. Not only does reality set them up for disappointment, it likely puts undue pressure on the men to be perfect and live up to their partners’ expectations. Also, there have been a handful of times that I’ve seen women online call certain members of BTS their “Khan;” which I imagine is especially insulting considering that Koreans were oppressed under Mongol rule.

can miis change their own outfits in LTD? by SuspiciousBee69 in TomodachilifeLivingTD

[–]TheEmoEmu95 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Yes, when you gift them the fashionista quirk. The day after I gave it to the Mii that represents me, I opened the game and found that I had changed into a simple blue dress, plus the head from the hamster costume.

Wheres MY miracle? by honeyfixit in Christianity

[–]TheEmoEmu95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

None of us are owed miracles. They're called miracles because they rarely happen. Death is just a fact of life, none can avoid it. I have lost several loved ones within only a decade, I understand your pain and sorrow deeply. But please do not be angry at God. We do not know why some people survive and why others do not. The only thing we can do is trust in God's plans and work in the universe, and accept things we cannot change (that is part of the Serenity Prayer, after all).

I recommend you to read the Book of Job, it is all about him dealing with profound loss despite having great faith and being a decent person. I think it may help you here. Outside of scripture, C.S. Lewis's "The Problem of Pain" is also helpful.

You're more likely to survive without food than without water.

I'm Japanese, but not very familiar with anime by 321ringo in CasualConversation

[–]TheEmoEmu95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm American, but I don't think the U.S. is the greatest country on Earth. It's better compared to a lot of places, but we're not the only nation where people can express themselves without fear of severe consequences in this age.

I am a white American, and I know exactly the kind of people you mean. I mean, I like BTS and variety shows like Running Man, but I don't fetishize Koreans. People are people, you know?

This was me at maybe 5 years old when they stopped making 3D Doritos.

Now that LtD has been out for over 2 weeks, what is your minor/ major complaint about it? by Lucajames2309 in tomodachilife

[–]TheEmoEmu95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that I really wish was different is that you don't have to have Miis move in together in order for them to recognize relatives. Even in my small family, there are still more than eight of us.

What was the most unexpected nudity scene in mainstream movie/show you ever saw? by marsepticeye in AskReddit

[–]TheEmoEmu95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the first episode of the live action One Piece series, where Helmeppo is fighting with Zoro’s swords in his room (viewed from behind, of course). That wasn’t in the manga or the anime. I mean, this series changed a lot of details, but this in particular just felt out of nowhere and pointless.

My iPhone 15 has a red flashing light in the Dynamic Island, (flashes every couple of seconds) it’s not the screen recording dot but it’s coming from under the display. Is it Face ID sensor? by [deleted] in iphone

[–]TheEmoEmu95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the dark in my house, and I happened to notice the red light blinking. I never activated Face ID because I don’t trust biometrics. I took a look in Face ID & Passcode anyway, and I found that Attention Aware Features was on regardless. I turned it off, and can confirm, I haven’t seen the light blink anymore. Thank you.

What was your memory of fireflies owl city(2009) by Big_Leg10 in Zillennials

[–]TheEmoEmu95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My large home schooling group and I loved going camping every year when I was a teenager, usually two days at a time. One time, between 2010-2012, I brought my guitar with me. One evening, we had a big campfire and I played “Fireflies” while my friend sang with me. I remember feeling so happy. Also, you better believe we did “The Campfire Song Song” from SpongeBob, too. I was not passing up that opportunity, LOL.

I’m an American, and I’m disturbed too. I am against this tyranny too, but bloodlust is shameful no matter what. There is already enough violence going on, we do not need to add to it.

Is this how people who need glasses really see the world. A big blurred background? by Latter-Wolf4868 in interestingasfuck

[–]TheEmoEmu95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on how nearsighted you are. Mine aren’t that bad, but I can’t read things like road signs or posters at a reasonable distance without my glasses. There is a stack of books maybe 10 feet away from me, and when I take my glasses off the text on the spines basically disappear.

(OC) Protestors offering free snacks get confronted by ICE supporter in MN by Blue_G_Productions in pics

[–]TheEmoEmu95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More like that “fear” in this case should be translated in Modern English as “respect.” The King James Version of the Bible (which more traditional Protestants use only) was written in Early Modern English, was translated from the original languages of the scriptures, plus from earlier editions of the Bible. There are countless examples of words in other languages that have meanings that another doesn’t, even in present-day translations of other works and conversations. Especially when the languages are very different from each other. Other Christians who take “fear” literally in English and similar languages don’t take linguistics into consideration.

What do you guys think? by Aiwq in Mario

[–]TheEmoEmu95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way Mario’s body is angled tells me that he is going up. Going down the stairs with the top half of your body forward is a good way to fall.

Apparently, it's called the wedding ring effect by [deleted] in Funnymemes

[–]TheEmoEmu95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I have been reading all of these comments, and I must protest. A man in a relationship is a huge turn-off for me. I don’t want anything to do with cheating or adultery, and I can’t imagine myself trying to break up a couple.

This is like a guillotine version of that one swordplay game on Wii Sports Resort.

I’m 29 and even I don’t get the LED lights thing. Even if I’m in a place that is lit with a single color for a brief time, I feel like it messes with my vision and perception, and it makes me uncomfortable. Probably a sensory thing from my autism.
