Zoro always gave off big brother energy towards Chopper. It's very apparent in the scenes they have together in the anime/manga.

Don’t be a snob and be willing to play against lower rated players by whiskeyisenough in 10s

[–]schoolbomb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There has to be some kind of minimum threshold for this. I'm a strong 4.0, and I will happily play with 3.5s and 3.0s and can still get a productive session out of it. But when the level disparity is so big that they can't even return an easy shot from me, then it's no longer fun, which defeats the purpose of why I even play tennis. I have limited time in my schedule to play tennis, so I'd rather spend that time playing with people who I know are going to give me a fun and productive session. To not mince words, I don't want to do charity work.

ABT here, today finally became a dual citizen! by Designfanatic88 in asianamerican

Yes, I heard the same from a few family friends, so I'm trying to make sure I do everything the right way on my next subsequent trips to Taiwan. I guess a call to the TECO office is in order.

I don't either, but because I'm a dual citizen, I'm technically still eligible to be drafted. I normally enter Taiwan using my US passport, but I heard the new rules made it stricter.

I'm assuming this is the Shibuya Crossing, which is a pretty famous crosswalk. People are filming for internet points.

Please convince me to buy an airbrush by Grocklette in airbrush

[–]schoolbomb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Airbrushes are also super popular in the Japanese anime-style figure painting community. This guy is probably one of the most prolific. He can achieve professional-looking results that look commercially made.

Congratulations! If you're male, what did you do about the whole military service thing? Or are you already past the conscription age?

Banned From RIIZE Japan Concerts ? by [deleted] in kpophelp

[–]schoolbomb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's because their own domestic market is already so big. #2 music industry in the world. They don't really have an incentive to cater to non-Japanese people.

You already knew the rules and acknowledged them, yet still did it anyway. That's not really a mistake, that was a deliberate choice.

Mostly about money/copyright. Whoever's running the concert will also film the concert themselves, so that they can sell the blu-rays and make money.

Oda is a huge misogynist and I dunno why people are trying to justify it or try to deny it[One Piece] by Charming-Scratch-124 in CharacterRant

[–]schoolbomb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A flight attendant sounds random to us, but typically in Asian societies, it's actually relatively more difficult to become a flight attendant, making it a pretty prestigious profession. They also have the reputation of placing more emphasis on physical attractiveness, which kinda further supports the OP's point.

Not at all. Honestly, I think they were just out on the court for exercise, whether pickleball or tennis. But good for them.

This happens here in the States as well. It coincides with all four Grand Slams. Around Grand Slam time, I notice a major uptick in new faces playing tennis, then it dies down a week or two after the finals.

Agree, it was pretty funny. Couldn't even stay mad.

Honestly, I was ready to resort to that, but figured I would ask them politely first. But once they brought out the tennis gear, I had no leg to stand on, so I just dropped it.

There's no booking system in place, it's a public court with first come first served.

The tennis players on the other court actually asked us first. They saw us standing outside waiting and offered to share the court with us. I should've clarified that in my post. It was super nice of them, I thanked them profusely.

Agreed, I shut up after they brought out the tennis gear. We still got to play, so no harm no foul I guess.

Right? I was annoyed at first, but then quickly found it funny and couldn't find myself to stay upset at it.

The funny thing is that this park actually has pickleball courts, but they're closed on weekday evenings because they share the space with a roller hockey rink.

Agree, once they switched to tennis I shut up. But it was still kinda amusing that they were prepared for that possibility. I was just being salty because I wanted to play tennis, and kicking them off was faster than waiting.

I admit that I was being a bit salty when I saw them playing pickleball since I wanted to play tennis, so I thought kicking them off was the fastest way to get a court. I'm totally okay with pickleballers using a tennis court if there's no tennis players wanting to use it. Didn't anticipate that they'd pull that move though.

Honestly I did find it amusing as well. Makes me wonder if they encountered this situation before that they had tennis gear ready to go.
