slurping


Recommended Posts

In many Asian countries, slurping soup is proper etiquette. In most Western countries, it is not.

I think it's like half & half...

I have manners ;) they were instilled the old fashioned way..with painful reminders.

I think it funny, that on this list here...if you scroll down to "European Table Manners"...England's entry so long...you'ld think that eternal made a post on it... :hrhr:

That's yer' new rules Sis....or do the Welsh do THAT different as well??? :dry:

:rofl:

Oh, yeah...I slurp, ever so slightly...as I generally do things as the "majority" of the world does things...which is probably the oddest thing about me...that I look for "normalcy" from that point of view first..Humanity as a whole, no National/Tribal interest...

..Of course, for the sake of True Politeness...I do as is accepted in a household if they are so different from my culture.

I found the very best way to do this, is simply admit as to your ignorance at the onset of te event..the house head should want to teach you...peoples love to show outsiders their ways.

    • No, especially now that you told me to.   I've been done for a while anyway.  Also healthcare is a joke and I just refuse to play that game. This is my form of "quiet quitting."
    • I'm not a doctor but that sounds like a major gastrointestinal problem and is one of this things that basically everyone says to get checked out immediately.   I don't know where you live but I will drag you kicking and screaming to get it checked if you don't go soon. If you die on us, I will dig up your grave and kill you a second time. Take it seriously.
    • I'm sorry they suck so hard.  I'm also sorry to say that it's very likely because of how you look with all the tattoos, piercings, garb, and whatnot.  They probably thought you were there for drugs especially if there isn't anything obviously wrong (and if there was something obviously wrong like a lead pipe sticking out of your leg they might think you did that to yourself just to get drugs.) But admittedly they're a bit jaded because SO MANY people do go actually just trying to score drugs. My mother was in constant pain the last ten years of her life, and even more when the cancer showed up.  She said it was the worst pain of her life.   Pain management is a fucking joke that just isn't  and never has been funny, but they keep telling it anyway. They also can tend to be super judgy on top of the general distrust because it's a religious hospital network.  I think we're lucky they're not still trying to use leeches at this point.     You should have sued their asses.  At least it didn't diminish her quality of life longterm.   Doctors are arrogant assholes too and think that the patient doesn't know shit.  While I admit that not having seven years of medical training doesn't make us regular plebs as qualified, no one knows what's going on with the patients own body quite like the patient.  The patient (or guardian) should always be informed and involved with what their medical team is doing.   There needs to be some type of legal medical bracelet that basically says "this person has a guardian and if you do anything without their  consent they will sue the everloving shit out of you."     All that said, I should probably go see someone about this blood I'm shitting.  But I really don't want to deal with them that much (also the lack of medical insurance doesn't help either.) On the plus side if I do die then it's not my problem anymore so I don't have to worry about it!
