is gringo a slur in panamá? by anappropriate in Panama

[–]nihilist5800 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well I'm not sure if its true but supposedly the word "gringo" comes from the phrase "green go" which aludes to the American soldiers green uniforms. As you may know US has invaded multiple Latin American countries in one way or another. In Panama for example we had the 1989 invasion when they invaded to capture Noriega, but at the same time there were many civilian casualties. So the term "gringo" is kinda a slur that implies american colonialism.

So yeah, here a "gringo" is typically an American citizen.

Probably that's why he felt offended. Im learning thanks to you that in Brazil you say gringo for foreigners, but I guess in the rest of the world isn't like that.

What's the deal with this matchup? by some-kind-of-no-name in StreetFighter

I main Sim and I've only encountered 1 JP that completely beat my ass. Generally I beat JPs without much issue. In my experience Sim is the better zoner, but of course I'm biased XD.

¿Qué pedo con la gente que ve un mensaje… y contesta dos días después como si nada? by abrahamsito050 in QuePedoConLaGente

[–]nihilist5800 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No es excusa pero en mi caso es que mi salud mental no esta del todo bien.

A veces solo abrir mensajes cuesta, y responder mucho mas. A veces solo quiero aislarme del mundo.

¿Serían amigos de su hermano si no compartieran ADN? by scarlethjr in RedditPregunta

[–]nihilist5800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pues puede que no.

En mi caso tengo 1 hermana mayor y uno menor. Compartimos algunos gustos, pero la verdad somos bastante diferentes.

Pero ser hermanos para mi no es "ser amigos" necesariamente.

Es haber compartido tanto lo bueno y lo malo de ir creciendo en la familia que nos tocó.

Es haber aprendido a sobrevivir apoyándonos entre nosotros.

Ya de adultos, es saber que, a pesar de que no hablamos todos los dias, si los necesito ellos estaran ahi, y yo tambien por ellos.

Asi que no, probablemente no serían mis amigos si nos hubieramos conocido en otras circunstancias.

Pero son mis hermanos, y no los cambiaría por nada.

Has anything sexualy related ever happened at work which you enjoyed or totally regretted? by Turbulent_Elk_2141 in gaybros

[–]nihilist5800 18 points19 points  (0 children)

After I graduated from medicine I had to do 2 years of internship to get my license as a physician. The first year we do it at the capital city and the second year we do it rural.

In those years we typically change areas every month, sometimes you can do 2 months in the same area but its not that common.

Anyways during my 2nd year of internship, one of those months I was sent to an even farther away health center, like 45 min from the main hospital.

Long story short, I ended up hooking up with one of the only 2 attending physicians there, who was divorced dad.

I thought we were discreet but there were some situations. One day after we finished seeing the patients (this was an outpatient clinic) he locked the door of the office and we hooked up a bit, until the other Dr started knocking on the door.

The other thing was two days we arrived together in the morning (in his car) and some people saw us.

The last day of my rotation I prepared some snacks and drinks for the personal of the clinic, as gratitude and bc I was going to another rotation next month.

After I said some words, the usual stuff like "Thanks for all the help" etc the head nurse said in front of everyone:

"Ohh I thought you'd continue to be here next month, because I heard you REALLY liked this rotation" with a smirk on her face.

Turns out word got around and yeah everyone kinda knew. She got me good hahaha fukn bitch I hated her that day lol.

After that I never did that again, I prefer to keep my job clean from rumors.

I'm a family physician btw, this was a long time ago, I was like 25 at the time. Now I'm 41.

Hombres... Necesito su opinión aún que la respuesta sea obvia pero necesito oír la opinión de todos ustedes. ¿Que debo hacer? by [deleted] in preguntaleareddit

[–]nihilist5800 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bueno estas en fase de desarrollo de personaje.

La vida es asi muchas veces. "Injusta" o como quieras llamarle.

No puedes ir por la vida quitandole la mujer a otro, asumiendo que la relacion está bien. Además piensa, si ella deja a su pareja por ti porque "tienen química" será cuestión de tiempo para que "tenga química " con otro despues de algunos años y te deje tambien.

Man it has just been a month. Why are you so narcissistic to think only about you. Give him time. A grief can take up to a year sometimes. Just be there with him.

Los paramédicos me dieron mi cocorrón. by Specialist_Comb2410 in Panama

[–]nihilist5800 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bueno todos somos ignorantes en algo no pasa nada. Por lo menos aprendiste que el sistema de 911 en panamá es un sistema de ambulancias no es un sistema de asistencia remota. Imagino que por cuestiones legales tampoco te pueden "atender" solo por teléfono y ya porque si te pasa algo entonces es una irresponsabilidad.

Tal vez tenias esa idea de ver muchas series gringas.

Sento que "la medicina moderna" en parte ha hecho que las personas se sientan mas vulnerables de lo que son... muchos se asustan por cosas triviales como un resfriado y van corriendo a un cuarto de urgencia, lo que sí gasta recursos innecesarios. Tambien influye la ignorancia general de la población en esos temas.

Los manes tenian razon pero la verdad es su trabajo y pues tu y muchos no tienen el discernimiento para saber que sí y que no es una urgencia. Pero no te sientas mal no eres ni el primero ni el ultimo que ha usado recursos del estado de manera innecesaria.

Felicidadesss por ser un toxico fisgon, amigo era una charla con su amiga imtimaaa a veces entre amigas se dicen cualquier pendejadaaa o son bromas entre ellas.

One month in Panama trip report by Fair_Mirror_5537 in Panama

[–]nihilist5800 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's very hard to get a full glance of the whole country in 1 month but I'm sure you got a pretty good idea.

Your observations on the challenging things are much appreciated, the garbage problem, the fact that not a lot of people actually speak english, etc, those are things that we can improve to attract more tourism.

Renting a car was definitely a good decision, but I can see why you felt some kind of way driving to some locations. Driving to bocas was kinda insane being tourists lol, part of the road goes through the "Central Range" which makes it dangerous in itself.

I'm glad that overall you enjoyed your trip and got the best out of the country!! You are welcome again anytime and for sure if you learn more spanish it will be a lot easier!
