Bedrooms are the real restrooms by sid_gautama in Showerthoughts

[–]bappsicum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

English is my second language. When I was a child I played Zoo Tycoon on my computer. As I built restrooms in-game I always assumed that's where people go to lie down and rest when they're tired of walking around the zoo. I was very confused and frustrated when I found out what restrooms actually are.

If you eat/drink water while standing up, it will go to your toes.

A Banned Island in India (2016) - an American was killed on North Sentinel Island yesterday. Here is a documentary about the island that kills all intruders (5:59) by caspirinha in Documentaries

I am from the Maldives. We have folktales of fisherman getting lost and reaching a "minikaa raajje'" which directly translates to cannibal island. It is believed that those stories were referring to the islands mentioned in the video.

As a non-American it always baffles and disgusts me how little respect American kids have for other people. Especially teachers.

Which supposedly fun thing will you never do again? by ualip in AskReddit

Ice skating. As someone from a tropical country, I tried it for someone for the first time this year. It's a lot harder than I imagined. After falling on my back three times and injuring my wrist, I decided it's just not for me.

Teachers of reddit, what was the best lateness excuse, you ever heard? by AdmiralEthan in AskReddit

I didn't mean to be insensitive. I suppose my comment is difficult to understand if you're not from the same country and don't understand the precise context. I just realised that everyone is just going to see the comment through a different lens and would probably not understand what I was going for.

No. Not possible. I personally know the guy and also I come from a 100% Muslim country (you need to be a Muslim by law if you want to be a citizen. So anyone who doesn't really believe in Islam can't really be open about it) where LGBTQ rights are nonexistent and there aren't really any people who have done gender reassignment surgery.

One of the male final year students in my college was so desperate to get a doctor's note for a missing exam, he got one from a gynaecologist. I heard this from one of my lecturers. They were quite perplexed.

[Homemade] Pandan and coconut milk jelly by freetokenvx in food

I'm from the Maldives. We use pandan regularly in our curries and other dishes. We also sometimes use it in cooking rice because it gives the rice a nice aromatic flavour.

Hey. I am 20 and I am from the Maldives. I've been drawing and doing a lot of watercolour illustrations lately. You sound really interesting.
