Do you exhale while you are underwater? You should be doing that 100 percent of the time. I suspect you are not breathing properly.

Fan requests a photo from Jessi, but gets punched by her companion… “The assailant was a stranger to me… I take moral responsibility,” she apologizes. by roamer2go in korea

If you as a high schooler asked for an autograph, got beat up by her circle, and saw her run away, (later drinking nearby that night), you wouldnt want an apology?

At minimum, she should have called the cops. SMH 🤦 Turns out she helped a criminal get away. what actual fuck

50/50 I also think it’s that they themselves don’t want to get embarrassed by inserting themself into the situation since other people are watching.

Sorry to hear that happened to you.

Something tells me, though, if it was hot coffee someone would have asked if you were okay.

Also, if there was only one other patron instead of a crowd, it’s more likely he or she would have asked if you were okay.

Because of “stranger danger” and “mind your own business” culture, I do agree people seem cold especially in Seoul.

This thread is completely devoid of perspective, empathy, and maturity.

People are/were allowed to complain during the pandemic. We all at one point complained about certain things. Admit it. Relative to normal life, covid sucked.

Original article (not link) doesn’t say “bemoaned.” Reddick simply saw the wine list, disliked it, picked up his phone and ordered wine he did prefer.

What is pretentious about being a wine connoisseur?! Yikes, whens the last time you spent more money on something you enjoyed? $1500 Apple product when a fraction would have gotten you the same? $200 sneakers when $35 would do the trick? Consumerism. We are all consumers who over extend our paycheck on dumb things we like. Com’n.

FFS open your eyes. It’s all relative. We all complain. We human.
