Donald Trump's Huge Campaign Announcement

shang says...

He won my state's primary.

My town he had huge black , guatemalan support. My neighbor legally immigrated from Guatemala during the 90s civil war, used tourist visa, then found work who signed to sponsor his h-1A temporary work visa then applied and took naturalization test and now a legal voting taxpayer.

He told me about the over 400 rapists fled Juarez into US and it's a nonstop stream as the Femicide continues and cartels own the governments he hates Mexicans with an extreme passion due to something bad happened in Guatemala long ago he won't share but he's super Trump supporter and campaigns door to door. It's actually quite inspiring and his English isn't perfect but he hates political correctness speech infringement, claims we are near the levels Guatamala was at just before civil war. He had a son that was executed over a joke in early 90s. He as tons of stories, I old him he should definitely write a book. He'd probably make a bit of money

This Is Why You Don't Go Close to the Ocean During a Storm

thegrimsleeper says...

A tourist here in Iceland died a couple of days ago in an incident like that. He was standing on a beach that is known to have these big waves come that can pull people in but tourists either don't notice the warning signs or ignore them because it doesn't look dangerous. Until the big wave hits, that is.
It's the first death since 2007 but I have heard many news stories about people barely escaping.

Mesmerizly pretty girl explains what not to do in Japan

SDGundamX says...

She forgot to mention you don't tip here. Ever. If you ever want to have some fun at a restaurant, try leaving a tip on the table and then wait in the parking lot for the staff to come sprinting out to return your money.

Other things to watching out for--blowing your nose loudly. You shouldn't blow your nose at all, really, if you're trying to be Mr./Miss Manners but if you absolutely must do it, you should blow as quietly as possible. I have no idea why this is a thing, but they actually prefer you to sniffle incessantly as you try to keep the mucus from dripping out of your nose to using a goddamned tissue--despite the fact that you will be handed packs of tissues at nearly every train station by people trying to advertise their services/products.

Also, at the end of the day, pretty much none of these rules apply to foreigners visiting Japan for tourism purposes. Tourism is way up here these days and Japanese people--especially in the Tokyo area--kinda expect tourists to be clueless about everything. The stuff she's mentioning really only applies if you're thinking of a longer-term stay where you might make some connections and actually have to give a fuck what other people here think because you're seeing the same faces every day.

Then again, I break almost all of these rules. I've been here long enough to see Japanese people break these rules and understand the times when it is acceptable. Or when I can get away with it due to "gaijin privilege." Gaijin privilege = not being expected to conform to Japanese societal rules since I'm not Japanese--and would never be considered Japanese even if I were to get Japanese citizenship.

Tourist who think they can go into others countries and knowingly break the law should be charged, jailed or fined then deported. It annoys me they didn't charge him. Nothing bothered me more when i was traveling then tourists who though they were special and expected to be treated as such.

Cuba's Netflix, Hulu, and Spotify - all without the Internet

Bruti79 says...

Cuba is one of my favourite places to travel to. If you ever get the chance to (and the US will get it very soon,) I recommend going. Go off the resorts, talk and meet with everyone.

As for computers, technology and the ilk, there is a black market for it. A lot of tourists have deals set up where they bring in tablets, phones, clothing for people and get paid well for it.

I was talking to one of the guides from Moron (yes, actually named that.) They said aside from drugs, the second highest black market industry is high fashion. They essentially see what the tourists are wearing, and then they try and copy, hand make, bargain for the same clothes. Tech works the same way, they see the cameras, phones, tablets, and either cobble together something from parts they have around, or they make a deal.

It's a really rad place, food, dancing, people, if you get a chance to go, go. You will love it. =)

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver: LGBT Discrimination

bareboards2 says...

I think it gets back to the "ick" factor, @MilkmanDan. I think. See if this makes sense to you:

At the lizard brain level, if you are strongly heterosexual, same sex activity is repulsive to you -- triply so if you are a man watching male activity. It is instinctive, the revulsion, because it comes from the core of your non-verbal brain.

Even if you are completely in favor of anti-discrimination, you can still understand that instinctive revulsion and can sympathize.

The thing is -- that strong revulsion is in part due to not being exposed to the thing that repulses you. See it enough, have friends and family who are LGBT, that instinctive response gets muted.

And bottom line -- yeah. Private businesses who are open to the public cannot discriminate based on who you are.

Sidebar -- when I was in my early 20's, I lived in Los Angeles. It was at the beginning of acceptance of gay culture, which included what I can only label as "slumming." It was fashionable for heterosexuals to go to known gay clubs. This was deeply annoying to the gay folks, of course, because they were out to have a nice time on a Saturday night, not be essentially creatures in a zoo for entertainment value.

The clubs had a really clever way of dealing with it. The standard policy was -- no open-toed shoes. If you were truly friends and not gawkers, you would know to wear the right shoes. If you were a tourist -- well, most women out for the evening wore open toed shoes.

I was young and stupid and was one of those tourists. My friends and I were turned away. Everyone else was miffed. I was immediately impressed with the whole concept. Yeah. I SHOULD be turned away, and weren't they brilliant at finding a way to do it.

I can still see the sneer on the face of the bouncer. He did NOT like us. That was 40 years ago and I still admire him and that business for protecting themselves from us gawkers.

Bill Maher: New Rules – June 12, 2015

ChaosEngine says...

About the tourist/earthquake thing, Bill is completely wrong here.

The tourists weren't detained for causing an earthquake. They were spoiled assholes who wouldn't listen to their guide and stripped off in a place that was sacred to the local people. They're being detained for indecent exposure.

The earthquake thing was some local elders who said they should be charged with causing an earthquake, but the authorities have basically ignored that. But "tourists arrested for being ignorant muppets" isn't nearly as good a story as "tourists arrested for angering earthquake spirits", despite the fact that the latter is a complete misrepresentation of the facts.

How do you distinguish Americans?

MilkmanDan says...

Actually, a lot of that is much more positive than I would have guessed...

Heck, I'd be quite a bit more critical than that in my own assessment of "average American tourist outside of the US", even though I am an American living in Thailand myself.

Indian scrambled eggs with a surprise

Some men just want to watch the world burn.

JustSaying says...

That isn't a tourist, that's a german license plate on the car. What this guy does is obviously intentional. There is no way he couldn't notice the big fucking red firetruck with lights and sirens going. Also, that's not a panic reaction either, that is pure assholery right there. It goes against every normal, responsible, civilised driving-behaviour.
If I were behind the steering wheel of that truck, I would've forced him out of the way. With my big ass truck.

rancor said:

I always thought Germany had fantastic driver licensing requirements. Guess it's not universal, or maybe it's a tourist. Another really strange thing is the way everyone starts driving past it at the end. Shrug.

The Last Ever Top Gear

ChaosEngine says...

Let's see: during the incident in question, he called the produced a "lazy irish cunt" (and as much as everyone thinks it's fucking hilarious, racism against the Irish is still racism)

Then there was the "slope on a bridge" incident.

Not to mention the "catch a nigger" quote, or the mexican incident or the Indian special, during which Clarkson built a toilet into the back of a Jaguar, claiming it would be "perfect" for tourists because "everyone" who visits the country suffers diarrhoea, sparked a complaint from the Indian High Commission.

Nah.. no evidence at all.

What on earth, and on what evidence, do you base your absurd comment?????
