Vid unrelated

2018-04-14 17:05:38 UTC  

what about all those youtubers in asia?

2018-04-14 21:16:03 UTC  

The japanology stuff is fine just fast forward past the American part

2018-04-14 21:16:08 UTC  

I actually enjoy it

2018-04-14 21:34:57 UTC  

The american stuff started becoming a larger part of it, I do the same thing but its annoying.

2018-04-16 10:37:21 UTC  

@Geartooth whats your reason for not liking it?

2018-04-16 10:37:29 UTC  

just curious

2018-04-16 10:38:22 UTC  

@Julian Chinese

2018-04-16 10:38:27 UTC  

The language I mean

2018-04-16 10:38:43 UTC  

Also I love Western Culture and the Cold

2018-04-16 10:39:07 UTC  

So I really hate this place

2018-04-16 17:33:26 UTC  

@Geartooth you in hong kong?

2018-04-16 18:32:31 UTC  

yo laowais living in china, does discord work there with no probs?

2018-04-16 18:32:43 UTC  

no need for VPN and shit?

2018-04-16 18:40:12 UTC  

it works but sometimes loads pretty slow. i recommend using a VPN at all times to use any kind of non chinese programs

2018-04-16 18:40:19 UTC  

even if stuff isnt blocked its purposely slowed down

2018-04-16 18:40:26 UTC  

you will benefit greatly at all times from a VPN

2018-04-16 20:19:52 UTC  

just asking because a friend is going to shanhai and we're wondering if we can keep contact trough discord lol

2018-04-16 20:20:12 UTC  

it seems like the mobile app works fine because it dosent use google captcha

2018-04-16 21:39:24 UTC  

>try to learn rudiments of chinese so I can skip some lessons

2018-04-16 21:39:48 UTC  

>completely similar words are diffrent because of the pitch

2018-04-16 22:30:15 UTC  

monotone it

2018-04-16 23:08:51 UTC  
2018-04-16 23:13:39 UTC  

@Joldberg monotoning Chinese doesn't work. Like at all.

2018-04-16 23:24:09 UTC  

mainlanders cant even begin to understand if you fuck up the pitch. If you go to a restaurant, and you point at the menu and try to say "I want this" in mandarin, but you fuck up one of the words, their brains cant fill in the gaps and understand what you are trying to say

2018-04-16 23:24:21 UTC  

they just sit there confused and can't read between the lines or use context clues or anything

2018-04-16 23:24:23 UTC  

i swear

2018-04-16 23:55:03 UTC  

no cause it would like a deaf person talking

2018-04-16 23:55:30 UTC  

you gotta sit there and really think what they're saying

2018-04-17 00:58:30 UTC  

but cmon what possible things could i be saying\

2018-04-17 00:58:40 UTC  

im in your restauraunt pointing at the menu after calling you over

2018-04-17 00:58:50 UTC  

theres only a few things it could be

2018-04-17 00:59:00 UTC  

im not gonna point at the tofu and say "i like cigarettes"

2018-04-17 02:50:03 UTC  

Well what was tge point of becoming commies if you didn't fix your language while geniciding everyone and destroying culture

2018-04-17 03:01:52 UTC  

Mandarin has been around for less than 50 years I think

2018-04-17 03:02:20 UTC  

nah must be like 70 years now

2018-04-17 03:15:23 UTC  

Why would anyone decide to make thier language pitch based

2018-04-17 03:18:53 UTC  

its just another systen

2018-04-17 03:19:14 UTC  

its the same you know your abc

2018-04-17 03:19:35 UTC  

they just have sounds that are just those sounds
