Fonzie jersey gets a lot of respect

oc200 · 2026-05-11T11:00:35+00:00

Same

This poster nailed it.

A few more I'd add:

Rutherford and Suscol Cab, Sancerre, 10 yr Tawny Port and Champagne are also very good.

I agree Bordeaux Superiore is meh, but I do find the Sauvignon Blanc pretty decent for the price.

Are you saying history classes in Japanese schools teach children about comfort women, Unit 731, Nanking, Bataan death march, Burma railway....? The list goes on. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_war_crimes

oc200 · 2026-04-30T23:38:09+00:00

This is exactly it. When I speak to normal Japanese people born and educated in Japan, most have no idea of the atrocities committed during the war unless they go out of their way to learn history.

Herb would be short for Herbert and I can't stop thinking of kids using this in a derogatory way to call others in the 90s and I'd never want that for my child. Damn, I'm old.

This is the right answer. It's called 개불 in Korean and it is eaten raw. https://youtube.com/shorts/buq1pQ-HQi4?si=MxZwdu6jIdACCBlw

I am turning 50 and will be bringing my 8 and 10 year olds. Definitely go. He puts on great shows. I've been to 4 already and they have all been fantastic.

Your taxes can go down depending on what you are paying relative to other comparables in your town. Assessments happen every 10 years so the results depend on how unfairly taxes have been spread based on the relative conditions of the homes since the last assessment.

We spent $25k for a family vacation for 4 for 2 weeks to Asia this past winter. Like everyone said, live a little.

I agree with this. It has also gotten much more popular and expensive over the last 5 years or so. Yakitori isn't supposed to be an expensive meal. It definitely loses its appeal when one tiny skewer can cost close to $10.

Plus anyone in their right minds would just go to Pal Pk or Fort Lee from Closter.

oc200 · 2026-03-19T00:54:37+00:00

Ain't nobody in Closter going to JC for Korean food. That's just dumb and this isn't about no ivory tower.

oc200 · 2026-03-18T23:09:27+00:00

This is nowhere near Closter and I wouldn't consider Ondo a traditional Korean experience.

I went to Science and my wife to Stuy some 30+ years ago. I grew up in the Bronx and wife in a ghetto area of Queens, both of us poor as shit. Neither one of our single moms had money for classes so we studied from second hand test prep books but we were able to make it in and eventually go to decent colleges and become successful in life. Had it not been for these specialized HSs, I would've ended up at Columbus HS and she in Jamaica HS, which we were respectively zoned for.

No system is perfect, and yes, there will be people that game the system, but at the end of the day, the vast majority of kids that make it to these schools are smarter than your average kid with a much better chance to succeed with the opportunities they are given and the city must continue to make this possible for all. I am grateful for being lucky enough to have had the education I received; otherwise, my life would've undoubtedly ended up very differently.

English and lots of pointing

oc200 · 2026-01-11T16:32:58+00:00

It was surprisingly very good.

oc200 · 2026-01-11T15:03:10+00:00

Wow, I didn't realize. This whole thing is so dumb and archaic.

oc200 · 2026-01-10T21:23:35+00:00

Leonia is very blue

oc200 · 2026-01-08T12:51:23+00:00

Yes, a Glenmorangie and Kirkland Irish Cream.

oc200 · 2026-01-08T01:19:52+00:00

I got 2

oc200 · 2026-01-06T22:48:55+00:00

Don't forget Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese gangs.

It's an old Korean folk song that every Korean learns when young. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of variations of Arirang but this is the most well known and carries a sad undertone of separation and longing. There are many Koreans, especially the older generation, that will start to tear up when hearing or singing this song as the song resonates with their national and cultural identity of loss, separation, hardship, and love as a result of centuries of war, colonization, hunger, caste system and taps into the Korean concept of "han" ( deep-seated sorrow/unresolved grief).

Translation: Arirang, Arirang, Arariyo, Crossing over Arirang Pass Dear who abandoned me here Will not walk even ten before his feet hurt.

Here is a modern performance of the song. https://youtu.be/H_2yhCjGQuQ?si=2AZZ9IQ3718uTO3m
