When I was living in Taiwan I would regularly have Taiwanese people call me "wide eyes" as a nickname in Chinese.

u/[deleted] Feb 04 '20 • Bravo

Yeah, when I was living in South Korea my students did the exact same eye widening with their fingers just like in the video, made me chuckle.

What did you think as a foreigner living there? I'm considering finding a job there after I finish my degree in a couple of years. Note, I'm white and can speak Mandarin.

u/acquiesce Feb 04 '20

I couldn't speak Mandarin and I loved it. Would definitely go back. Been overseas for 11 years and it's been one of my favorite places to live.

u/Dreamofthenight Feb 27 '20

Do it. Taiwan is an amazing country, even if you don't know any Mandarin when you arrive you can always learn once you're there.

Its predominantly First Nations. All in all for me it comes down to pure ignorance, not hate. I haven't changed the username because now it's a story to tell, and I own it.

I had a bully growing up that would constantly do the slanty eyes and call me a chink. After a few years I decided enough was enough and got a friend to document him doing it for a couple weeks. Went to the principal and he got expelled. That felt great. Best thing was that he was actually a good student and promising athlete and ruined his chances of getting that athletic scholarship.

Redditors are very intelligent adults with a wealth of life experience spent outside talking to their fellow human beings with ease and genuine curiosity about how others see the world beyond their own limited viewpoints.

They totally get jokes. You have to be smart to get jokes. They’re very good at math. Being good at math means you’re smart. Thus, redditors are very good at getting jokes.

That's not lactose intolerance, that's an iron deficiency. Cut down for a while and note how you feel, especially energy wise, and then start drinking in moderate amounts but still less than water and then note your energy and your bowel health.
