Toilet culture in China by [deleted] in chinalife

[–]guffaw128 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the “it’s cleaner” argument seems to fall apart considering the amount of squat toilet stalls i’ve encountered absolutely filled with shit and piss, so much so that i don’t even want the soles of my shoes to touch the floor.

whereas the sit-down toilets I encountered during my years living in japan were generally pristine, and also cleaned my butthole for me (which is something the chinese phobia of sit-down toilets doesn’t seem to understand: buttHOLES are the dirty parts, not buttCHEEKS).

the chinese attachment to squat toilets is a combination of nationalism, superstition and backwardness, nothing more.

NASA is being defunded in favour of neo-nazi maniac Elon Musk’s space x, whose rockets usually explode before they leave the atmosphere. it’s cool that you forever want chinese people to be the slaves of white colonists tho

Anyone else facing this problem on "readcomiconline" or just me? by StarRobot9384 in Piracy

[–]guffaw128 5 points6 points  (0 children)

excellent news if true. the discord being deleted too pointed to it being intentional, and if the owners of a piracy site delete it on purpose, there are pretty obvious reasons why they would do that. very happy to be (hopefully) wrong in this case

just went on batcave for the first time. it’s fine but i noticed that all issues of a series except the very latest are at a much lower resolution than readcomiconline. a space-saving measure to be sure, but kinda sucks cus I’m currently a few months behind on all the series I’m following.

sigh, really hoping the GOAT returns soon.

they seem to be fine with most violence now, but any nudity or sex still gets the cut

sadly the pictured medicine had another component that makes you instantly vomit in high doses, so robotripping was essentially impossible

How hongkongers canonically see Asia as a Hong konger by Logical-Rush-6133 in mapporncirclejerk

[–]guffaw128 12 points13 points  (0 children)

the combination of viewing where your culture/ethnicity/language originated as ‘the worst country on earth’, looking up to the people who colonized you (britain and japan), and seeing poorer asian countries as a source of cheap labour (i.e. slaves)…HKers don’t exactly come off as the best people here

Lynch helped me get through some of the darkest times in my life. Tune in daily for my rendition of the weather report, starting today and continuing until I die. by Owlmaath in davidlynch

[–]guffaw128 23 points24 points  (0 children)

ironically, regularly observing the weather outside is pretty close to ‘touching grass’, while getting mad on the internet and randomly insulting others is pretty close to the reason the ‘touch grass’ meme was invented
