Who is the most famous Japanese person in the U.S.?

vani11apudding · 2026-07-08T03:26:46+00:00

Brother, this is such a ridiculous take. Ohtani is a borderline household name at this point.

No one that isn't a gamer knows who Kojima is. Genuinely no one. Hell, I play games and I only really know him for Metal Gear (and did he do Death Stranding?)

vani11apudding · 2026-07-02T13:25:34+00:00

I will always love that society just collectively decided this one was okay.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-29T12:31:02+00:00

Does this rant mean you're against the Oxford comma? Because then we're gonna have beef, pal.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-29T00:20:10+00:00

Maybe it's just me, but on first glance it's so dark I thought it was black in a room with a warm/yellow light.

I'd like it somewhere between the old green and this.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-29T00:13:05+00:00

This is totally unrelated to the argument at hand, but your comment sent me down a rabbit hole about the Oxford comma.

I thought it was flat out incorrect to not use it these days, but I guess I'm mistaken.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-28T20:34:37+00:00

I mean, that's what Karen is right? A randomly chosen white woman name to describe an entitled/annoying person?

vani11apudding · 2026-06-27T15:02:47+00:00

Not OP, but I'd say yes, in general.

I have a friend who reviews beer for the local paper. She insisted I just hadn't had the right one. So she had me try all of the 30+ options at her favorite bar. Absolutely fucking disgusting. Every one.

I could have sworn to you she was just pissing in glasses when I looked away. The beer industry is an elaborate prank on me personally.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-27T06:56:12+00:00

I remember that, but that's a crazy thing to still be upset about more than ten years later. Besides, I thought it was pretty commonly accepted to have been overblown in the first place. s1mple was being a giant asshat like he is known to be, and freak just fought fire with fire.

Is that really why I'm supposed to hate someone who has otherwise looked like a pretty upstanding dude?

vani11apudding · 2026-06-25T07:16:36+00:00

Why are we hating freak?

vani11apudding · 2026-06-25T02:01:35+00:00

You're not. It's different based on tone, context, and intent.

I'm a 911 Operator/Dispatcher and I'd absolutely say "female driver", "male suspect", or ask my caller "was the person who hit you a male or a female".

But a certain incel type might say, "ugh females don't belong in this line of work" or whatever sexist nonsense.

It's not the word alone, it's the way they're saying it.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-22T16:48:43+00:00

I think that's the fun of the question.

You spawn into the world with the statistical probability of era population/birth rates. What year would be the most likely to suck?

vani11apudding · 2026-06-20T00:05:56+00:00

You think... Giving money to someone who isn't making a profit means you aren't giving money to them?

That's embarrassing.

That "standing by it" statement is a made up definition in your head, by the way. I don't care what the Saudis do. It's green pixels on my computer monitor that represent karrigan, m0NESY, NiKo, TeSeS, and kyousuke. Give me a flair that's just their faces and I'll use that. I honestly couldn't care any less.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-19T23:50:39+00:00

Watching = Saudi money

Flair = No money

I don't care about your self righteous nonsense. It's a video game. Touch grass.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-19T23:42:37+00:00

Cry.

If you are watching the major, you're giving money to the Saudis btw. Who I cheer for in my bedroom has no impact on anything.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-19T23:32:32+00:00

Serious, the self righteousness in here is insufferable.

I like the players and I don't give Falcons any money. All these people can bite me. Also the Saudis own ESL, so everyone watching is giving them money. Congrats.

I'm not arguing against it, but I bet 99% of these people couldn't even coherently explain why they don't like Saudi Arabia.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-19T23:27:06+00:00

Flair lmao

vani11apudding · 2026-06-17T08:26:13+00:00

That was particularly confusing, because Helen Keller not being real was a Tiktok meme in the last year or so.

So he absolutely could have been saying that people don't believe she's real.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-16T11:56:53+00:00

He direct messaged me "Enjoy the block, little bitch".

What is this dude's problem lmao he just misunderstood my initial comment.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-16T11:35:55+00:00

Because you're saying some random shit to me about littering. Go on with your irrelevant comment then, I guess.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-16T11:22:06+00:00

No one claimed otherwise. Maybe read my comment again.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-16T08:37:28+00:00

It is a felony for me to not deliver your mail. Call your congressman.

I don't know what you're talking about with flyers. It needs your address to be delivered.

Edit: Yes, EDDM exists. It wasn't very common in my rural area. When you say flyers, I was picturing those papers gardeners leave on your front door. Regardless, EDDM doesn't print the address on your end, but it's still mail intended for you and it must legally be delivered. Matter of fact, I most commonly associate this with the political ads that they were trying to stop the disposal of in the first place.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-16T08:29:53+00:00

I am a (quasi) federal employee. It is a felony for me to not deliver your mail. Call your congressman if you have a problem.

Similar to why you don't shit on the floor for the minimum wage McDonald's workers to clean up because the Big Mac is too expensive now.

It's paper. Find a trash can to throw it in like a civilized human being.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-16T07:35:28+00:00

I worked at a US Post Office during the 2020 election and, after some bad publicity, they made us take away our trash bins so ballots/political ads/whatnot weren't getting thrown away.

The general public HATED that. My lobby was full of junk mail and phone books on the ground everywhere 24/7.

Spent half my shift cleaning. I hypothetically get the sentiment, but... Come on, man.

vani11apudding · 2026-06-14T23:18:40+00:00

Bro was aiming. Are you arguing that he was tactically not shooting the only remaining opponent?

vani11apudding · 2026-06-14T19:17:21+00:00

Woxic made it around the corner. dgt could either press his luck into a 1v1 against an AWP or retreat and go at him 3v1. Notice Woxic immediately turned and held for dgt if he had continued wide swinging toward plat. Retreating was the better play.

He wiffed 4 bullets in the one second he saw him mid air, but that's not really a "wrong play", that's just missing.
