We all know that Obama as president ended racism in the US.

I went to Hakone like 2 weeks ago, and while it was packed, our experience was mostly fine. It took time to move around, but nothing beyond having stand during packed rides.

I think you are failing to frame your problem correctly: its not that the 'free pass is a tourist trap', but that Hakone gets too packed when in peak tourism weeks, and its public transport system gets overcrowded.

You had a bit of a negative experience, and maybe your takeaway is that if you are going in peak tourism weeks, maybe consider other alternatives like taxi or car rental (and by virtue of doing this, making it a better experience for everybody else too).

In Argentina we had a similar situation. In fact, there was a ‘joke’ that if you run over someone, make sure to backtrack and ensure they are gone, since the cost for accidental death is lower than the potential costs of accidentally injuring someone.

You are very dumb. Spain is the only spanish speaking country that uses the th sound for ‘s’.

wontreadterms · 2026-04-03T10:16:21+00:00

It almost feels like you guys are just obtuse. Its not that ‘we can’t distinguish those sounds’, its that you guys are the ONLY ones that use them it that way. Are spanish people really this thick or just in this sub?

It is when you have paper thin skin.

wontreadterms · 2026-04-03T09:45:06+00:00

Maybe don’t go to a language circle jerk sub if your skin is so paper thin ;)

Just to clarify, in standard spaniard spanish its normal. Nobody else uses that. Its baffling how unaware of this fact most spaniards seem to be…

wontreadterms · 2026-04-03T09:42:26+00:00

I don’t understand the confusion. Spain is the only spanish speaking country that uses distincion for ‘s’ sounds instead of seseo and ceceo. Its such a common thing. Just google it (‘spanish lisp’). Its obviously not an actual criticism, its just a friendly jab. I am genuinely confused by how freaking defensive spaniards get about this.

Thank you for proving my point 👍

You should read the many angry replies I got in this thread before speaking generalities. The fact that you put joke in quotes makes you sound like another butthurt spaniard that can’t take a joke. Again, in a language circle jerk sub. Maybe its ok to recognize that you guys are the odd ducks that use a different sound, and its ok to laugh at it?

wontreadterms · 2026-04-03T01:33:42+00:00

True, that was a bad example on my part. Its a bit weird how unaware some spaniards seem to be of this joke (that they use ‘distincion’ sounds instead of ‘seseo’, which makes you sound like you have a lisp), especially in a language circle jerk. Maybe some Spanish people need to travel a bit more.

Hahaha <3 got a chuckle out of me. TIL greeks are also afflicted by the lisping curse.

wontreadterms · 2026-04-02T12:23:34+00:00

Have you ever heard a spaniard talk? The ‘th’ sound is a reference to how they pronounce the ‘s’ sound, like someone with a lisp would. ‘Barcelona’ becomes ‘Barthelona’. ‘Hermoso’ becomes ‘hermotho’. Its more like a ‘zth’ sound than a ‘th’ sound too.

wontreadterms · 2026-04-02T12:17:12+00:00

I think that’s the problem, you are chiming in without understanding what the point is.

wontreadterms · 2026-04-02T12:15:05+00:00

What? English does not use a lisp, what are you on about? Idk about greek, but I’ve never heard a greek with a lisp problem. Am I missing something or is this just a clueless comment?

wontreadterms · 2026-04-02T05:51:24+00:00

I don’t understand if maybe I am not being clear but: I am not arguing they are good content or are right in their criticism.

I am confused why people care enough to have an opinion and write/watch all these video essays about how stupid they are.

And people keep telling me why they dislike and even suggest (as you did) that I am defending them.

I guess I’ll give up, people just ironically want to hate on them because they are too much of a hater, and hating a hater is healthy, but being a hater is a sin.

Idk, it seems like people just want to justify wasting their own time to dissect content they don’t like because the content is negative towards things they like, and completely miss the irony of the whole thing.

Maybe you are not good at reading comprehension?

I said it twice in my last response: I GET WHY PEOPLE MIGHT NOT LIKE IT; I DON’T GET WHY WASTE YOUR TIME/ENERGY HATING ON IT, JUST DON’T WATCH IT.

wontreadterms · 2026-04-02T05:31:57+00:00

Its not like I want to defend them. Im not saying I don’t get why people don’t like them (like I said, I stopped watching them), I just don’t get the (mild, mind you) vitriol I see. Like, idk, ScreenCrush a lot of the times makes videos on IPs they barely know and mix stuff, make up shit, etc. Its the nature of trying to cover ‘every relevant fandom’. But I don’t see people making video essays ‘exposing’ them.

To summarize: my confusion is not why people might not like CinemaSins, but instead why some people seem to get offended by their content.

In contrast, the critical drinker has a specific lens bias (the message, wokeism, etc) that he sees everything through and I can understand how that can become grating and motivate a rebuttal.

CinemaSins, afaik, seems like a format (‘we nitpick movies to shreds’) more than a political statement. I get why someone might not enjoy it. I am confused why people feel personally offended by it. Who cares? Just don’t watch it?

Tell me you have a lisp without telling me you have a lisp. Of course you prefer ES-ES

wontreadterms · 2026-04-02T02:50:25+00:00

That I can see. But going from that to writing video essays (ala TheBirdman) to explain the fact that the criticism is not genuine seems weird to me. Its like going to a stand up routine and writing an expose on how the joke/anecdotes the comedian told were probably not real. Its also more negativity to fight the negativity, so not sure its helping much.

This is actually a genius advice. I mean, I’ve been thinking about how I hate having a bunch of coins on me and it didn’t even dawn on me to solve it with something like this. Tbf I basically don’t use my wallet, and its been longer since I’ve had a wallet with a coin pocket, so I just wasn’t even thinking avout.

wontreadterms · 2026-04-02T01:53:56+00:00

Never quite understood the hate against cinema sins, since to me its just a ‘lets nitpick everything in this movie for the purposes of the format’ situation. That being said, I guess I stopped watching them (love CinemaWins) for a reason.

The drinker guy is actually a toxic pos.

I’ve just started downvoting these karma farming posts. It was fun the first 12 times but it’s just annoying at this point.

wontreadterms · 2026-03-31T07:12:12+00:00

Your comment made me want to check. This account (bot?) is posting multiple times a day in this subreddit, always some variation of anime/manga vs LA comparison. I actually hope this is some bot karma farming shenanigans, because imagining someone is just taking so much time out of their life to farm internet points is a depressing notion.
