Having Pets
Having pets. I have two dogs that I love to death but when I really think about it, I realize they’re just two random animals that I saw one day and said “yeah I like that one” and put them in my home against their will and I give them food regularly and smother them with more affection than I give to other people. And those two random animals seem to think that’s totally dope and show signs of liking me back. yuxngdogmom , Park Van Ness Report Final score: 394points POST ShriSha Kamboj ShriSha Kamboj Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 9 months ago the dogs be snickering about how u have fallen for their trap....it's the dogs that decided they liked u :) 87 87points reply View more comments #2Reading

As someone from an Asian cultural background, how American kids can get financially cut off from their families at 18. Like, they’re still a family and on good terms, but my friends have said stuff like “my mom owes me 300$”, or that they’re taking out student loans though their parents are financially able to support them through college. But, their parent’s money isn’t their money anymore so they have to take on debt. It’s so strange to me, as the expectation in (most) Asian households are that parents support you financially when you’re young and then you support them financially when they’re old, and there’s no clear demarcation of my money your money. fangyingx , Vincent Diamante Report Final score: 171points POST catrin Watts catrin Watts Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 9 months ago I like this idea my kids are still young but I'd always give them help financially if they needed it and I have it I would give it to them it's not even a thought to do otherwise and my family have always looked after the older members it's just how I think it should be 35 35points reply View More Replies...

Languages, or just talking in general. The fact that we’ve given meaning to a bunch of random sounds made by our vocal chords is bizarre when you think about it. Like, how did this even start?
