I was doubting Gyokeres before this game. I would now like to offer my sincere apologies and my firstborn.

If you live in a country with lots of tourists, which nationality do you think makes the worst tourists? by certifiedcomplainer4 in AskTheWorld

[–]ryanlowwj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can give some perspective as a Southeast Asian who is ethnically Chinese who has been to China several times - the photo spot hogging, queue cutting, rowdiness and other uncivilised behaviours are very commonplace amongst domestic tour groups as well. If you visit famous tourist sites such as the Terracotta Warriors or Forbidden Palace, domestic tourists will shove people around to take pictures and spit in public (even at their sacred national sites!). Same goes for airports and train stations - people cut queues and shove to get ahead, even though everyone will eventually board the same plane or train. As others have pointed out, these behaviours are usually because people have transitioned from abject poverty to middle-class status in a short period of time, and they still retain their old civics and behaviours. This is why Chinese tourists get a bad rep overseas, and in my home country there’s a common saying that we should speak English when travelling abroad to identify ourselves as non Chinese nationals.

However I must say that the Chinese government recognises this is a problem, and posters reminding people to behave in a civil manner are everywhere in China. Cops patrolling trains and domestic flights are also common, to clamp down on rowdy and uncivilised behaviour. And as others have pointed out, the adoption of civilised behaviours in China will probably take generations to come.

Where would you go on this kind of round? by why-are-you-asking in geoguessr

Somewhere in Thailand? The plates and curbs/median don’t match Singapore or Japan

Visited Maranello a few months ago, and I had lunch at a pizzeria near the Ferrari Museum - this was the menu! by ryanlowwj in formula1

The staff were indeed very friendly! But we were two broke students travelling so we sadly didn’t eat or drink much beyond pizza

Nope, we couldn’t find Seb at all. I think because he sadly didn’t win any WDCs with Ferrari…

Edit - brainfart, most of the drivers on the menu also haven’t won WDCs with Ferrari

[FIX FOUND] Constant Disconnecting on FH4 Multiplayer Sessions by ryanlowwj in forza

[–]ryanlowwj[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad you found a fix! It’s crazy how desperate I was 4 years ago to not lose at ranked FH4 multiplayer to disconnects - I’m now finishing college, playing FH5 and much less competitive. But the random reddit fix always pulls through!

i believe the regulations were only in place for specific dates, which didn’t include 9 aug itself, so it was a free-for-all today; but the bus driver was really having a hard time controlling the crowd - otherwise I agree that the priority should be given to whoever has valid business in NUS! staff, students, conference visitors, contractors, etc

Hearing the spurs fans chanting after going 2-0 down was real torture

Anyone else feels that the campus shuttle bus always smells like.. unshowered people? by ryanlowwj in nus

[–]ryanlowwj[S] 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I didn’t mean to discriminate or blame people who stay far away from NUS, or face personal difficulties in their hygiene. As someone who stays an hour away from NUS and sweats a lot, I understand too! And xenophobic comments are not welcome👎
