    Unfortunately I don’t think this will ever happen. It has benefitted both parties at different times, and introducing more parties only invites competent competition. Something they don’t want to fight with.

    When the US fails (whether it be the next 10, 50 or 100 years) I think It’d be this.


  • Those who say this are usually frustrated by the increasing number of misunderstandings/miscommunications due to increasing English illiteracy. Its become more difficult to communicate to those around you.

    It’s utterly unacceptable behaviour but I believe the issue lies deeper than simple “racism”. I also sometimes find it frustrating from the sheer volume of people that can’t speak English, from coworkers, customers, fellow students, etc. I don’t even live near the border, where the problem is much worse.

    I think it’s because of Americanized potato salad. The kind with miracle whip and tons of corn syrup. I’ve had mayo based salads like this and it makes me want to puke (as an American lol)

    I think this plays with the stereotype that weird eccentric middle aged people like weird/gross food. Sort of like jello salad coincidentally (search it up, it is foul).

    Yeah for that reason I feel like there hasn’t been a single game in the last 10 years worth 100% completing. It’s so easy to make a game excruciatingly long that everyone does it. So many stupid achievements that are just raw grind, “do something 1000 times”.










  • On India itself, its impressive that it’s the world’s largest democracy. Indians are well educated relative to similarly poor countries and have high English literacy, which is why many believe it could outpace China.

    I admire their charitibility. My local area has a large Indian population as I live near a large hindu temples in the US. There is always cheap, high quality food for those in need (1$ for a large plate of food). The kitchen is operated by volunteers and rely on donations and food banks. I Believe this is also common practice in many temples within India proper.

    There are plenty of unsavory things such as the caste system but overall harbor a lot of respect for the country and people.
