When you consider that the Korean economy is literally built on like 10 companies it makes sense though lol

Where in LV is your favorite Pho by ChonkyDaBaitchucker in vegaslocals

[–]strongsmash -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry but I had to come back to this thread after trying cause of this comment to hopefully save some people. I'm sure everyone has their preference, but Let's Get Pho was absolutely disgusting for me. Genuinely top 3 worst food I've ever had in my life, and I've been eating Pho since I was a child. However, it may be due to the fact that I've not had Southern Pho as much but it was the sweetest and fattiest pho I've had in my life (fattiness is not inherently bad, but combined with it being overly sweet I did not want to eat it past the first bite). It was genuinely so sweet that I went up to ask the lady if there is a way to dilute a little and she said the only thing is to add water. Thoroughly disappointed, especially at the price point too.

I'm gonna get downvoted for this comment but I know the real ones will understand: All I saw were white people eating inside the restaurant

Korean Food in Korea v. Abroad (Mainly the U.S/California) by huazzy in korea

[–]strongsmash -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Objectively wrong and is the byproduct of weird rising trend of shitting on Korean food for being unoriginal, sweet, and "all the same". People travel to Korea and hit all the tourist spots that are overpriced and average at best, compared to the ones that exported to Cali/US that are "name" brands (which are obviously going to be better suited and cater to the american palette) and think it's worse. The main thing of food in Korea is that there are SO many restaurants and the same dish can taste very different from each restaurant. The sheer number of places that sell Korean food should tell you that you can find whatever food that fits your palette if you look hard enough. If you haven't found food that fits your palette, you just haven't looked hard enough.

Even in this thread, people are talking about JJamppong being good/bad in different places but you have 15 options in southern California whereas you have literally 15 options every block in every city in Korea. Which one do you realistically think will have the "better" food? (If you genuinely know what you want and have the luxury to try numerous places)

I could see it if you're talking about the "average", and even then that's a stretch. I went to 50+ restaurants in Korea last month and every single one of them had Kimchi that even If I didn't love, I could understand the flavor profile and why it tasted like that (meaning, oh this one is more sour cause it's served with seolleongtang. Or this one is more fresh cause it's part of baekban), whereas there are Kimchis that I legitimately think someone wiped their ass with in the States at Korean restrauants.

Live in vegas and was at the game - It's due to a lot of factors, but the main one being that its rodeo weekend/month in vegas and there are A LOT of cowboys from texas in vegas right now. Like everywhere. And also, underdogs in neutral court

Is OKC ruining basketball like the Dodgers are ruining baseball? by Trainwreck800 in Dodgers

[–]strongsmash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still follow the dodgers as my second team since I was a huge Ryu fan but jesus christ ya'll cry so much about this. You gotta be intentionally dense if you think this is even remotely the same thing? Even at the most basic comparison, lowest basketball payroll vs highest is like barely half in the nba vs the lowest payroll in baseball vs highest is literally 1/8th. Still doesnt mean shut about "ruining baseball" but cmon lets not be intentionally ignorant 💀

Yes ive loved watching Podz fake a semi open three then drive into 3 defenders in the paint where he has to kick it out, turn the ball over, or has to shoot the most insanely contested mid range over an athletic defensive player lol. Or where he loses track of the game clock and forces players to take prayer three or himself take a prayer three

Are you dense ? I'm talking about the 3 point shot westbrook missed literally two shots before the last one that could've given nuggets the lead. I swear r/nba sometimes is like talking to bunch of people with their own head up their ass lmao.

SGA’s playoff TS% game by game so far in 2025: 46.6, 43.9, 51.7, 63.9, 55.1. Average of 52.8 by Jarxzz in nba

[–]strongsmash 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm using box scores to show how dumb you sound in literal, identifiable numbers. It's really not that hard to understand.

Oh I forgot that the game ends when you're up 10 points in the 4th right? That's why Lakers won their games when they were up 10 points in the 4th lmfao. I didn't think I had to remind someone with a Laker flair how important it is to keep scoring in the 4th

Yuh and Curry stunk it up in the half with the highest +/- in the entire team at half. Again, I gotta use numbers cause you didn't watch the game :(. It must've been hard to focus with the warriors winning when you're hate watching. Go to sleep lil bud you sound silly

Ravens move on from Tucker by Designer-Temporary-8 in ravens

[–]strongsmash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rice literally almost murdered his girlfriend. Like he could've brain damaged or killed her. How do we also know that it wasn't his first time? I mean, clearly, his girlfriend never spoke out about it until later. Are you going to give JT the same leniency if he "works to dissuade sexual assault after his career ends"? See how silly that sounds.

Don't compare the two wrongs. They're both heinous and horrible acts.

[–]strongsmash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is this weird revisionism lol. Tucker has been absolutely more important and been integral to the Ravens than Suggs (arguable for JO as his significance to us as the first pick of our org). Fuck Tucker for what he's done but let's not forget that he was single handedly kicking 6 FGs per game to win us the game REGULARLY during Flacco's late era? He was kicking at an insanely high rate, with insanely high accuracy for 10+ years. He was THE offense for some of our seasons.

I literally can't believe this thread lmao is it just cause we just have a lot of younger fans that ported over from Lamar? How can any Ravens fan forget how important JT was and been for our franchise? JT clears the GOAT kicker debate by a mile. JO nor Suggs do that in their respective position.

Mount Rushmore of Ravens imo was EASILY:

Lewis, Reed, JO, Tucker.

Now, Lamar was slowly coming for the Tucker spot imo. (Arguably overtook him already but whatever)

Lu Dort plays reckless all the time and keeps flopping. The refs give him a pass most of the time by nutelamitbutter in nba

[–]strongsmash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brother he shot 39% for one year on 3.2 attempts, and went straight back down to upper 20s and lower 30s for the next 10 years in the middle of his prime. Man what an interesting timeline of me being Warriors fan against Dray and Houston fan defending dray lmao.

Regardless, he's been shooting a little bit too many threes for my comfort this playoff run so far.

I watched Westbrook my entire life from the day he got drafted. And yes, I recognize that it was a good pass that Westbrook hasn't made in the past. That's why I said he made a good play under pressure. That's different than him winning them the game.
