I'm a fluent welsh speaker, and when people come to my country and go to lessons or whatever to learn a bit of our language, some stupid fucks laugh at them for their pronunciation and shit, which puts a lot of people off from learning any more of it. It's so dumb because they constantly talk about how our language is dying..

EDIT for anyone who would like to be able to swear a bit in Welsh: http://www.youswear.com/index.asp?language=Welsh http://www.rhegiadur.com/

I work in kitchens. When I was about 19, my head chef was Colombian, and I always teased him about his accent and his pronunciation of English words. He finally looked at me and said "I speak two languages. You're going to make fun of me when you only speak one?" It was that moment that I realized I was an asshole.

Edit: Thanks for the Gold! To everyone asking: I did apologize. We had a great working relationship after that, and I actually quit the job when they fired him.

[–]Hazzdavis 165 ポイント166 ポイント  (18子コメント)

Did you at least then apologise?

[–]Baastrami [スコア非表示]  (4子コメント)

Of course. I've since worked with others who speak English as a second language, and I'm far more helpful. I'm also the first to tell someone else to knock it off if they start mocking someone.

[–]mrgonzalez [スコア非表示]  (12子コメント)

No, he realised he was an asshole, accepted it, then embraced it. His ability to be an asshole has improved drastically since that day.

[–]SirLockHomes [スコア非表示]  (3子コメント)

Learn 3 more languages fluently and come back to continue making fun of him. And make fun of him in Spanish too.

    In Welch Welsh:

    Sometimes a e i o u, always y. (edit: and w, more so w)

    [–]sotonohito 404 ポイント405 ポイント  (13子コメント)

    It's a little known fact that the original inhabitants of Wales didn't actually come overland from the rest of England, but rather sailed there from across the Bristol Channel and the Irish Sea. This was, at the time, a hazardous journey and regrettably most of their vowels fell overboard on the trip.

            This is always the case with communities, particularly small communities. Some people look at the community and think "wow, what an awesome community, we should let more people know about it and become a part of it." Others think "wow, what an awesome community, we should keep it pure so that it stays awesome." You hate the people who scoff at bad pronunciation because you're in the first camp - while they scoff because they're in the second camp and derive a lot of their self-identification from the purity and exclusiveness of their little community.

            I think yours is the far better approach to life, by the way.

                  Exactly.

                  I get the same feeling watching the news. When they report on something I understand very well and I see how wrong their reporting is, it really makes me question their coverage of anything else.

                            I would scoff at this when I was younger. Becoming anything like my dad? Fucking shoot me.

                            Now? That man has managed to hold everything together, even through the worst of times. My family is not rich by any means, but if we did not have him we would surely be very poor.

                                    That most opinions are held too strongly, and that people are way more ignorant than they think.

                                    That said, I don't exclude myself from that, which may be problematic.

                                    Focus on listening and learning, rather than spreading misinformation.

                                            They should either get rid of innocent until proven guilty or start adhering to it.

                                            The moment someone gets arrested they have their name plastered all over, especially if it's higher profile. It's starting to affect juries, and that can affect outcomes of trials, leading to mistrials and appeals being granted.

                                            Serious question. If this were the case, what about things like wanted pictures? Should the media be able to show pictures if the cops are trying to find the person? Obviously this doesn't apply if the person has already been arrested, but since your argument ( to me at least) extends to the media treatment before arrest as well it just seemed like a sticky point.

                                              How do you think we should accomplish this without harming freedom of speech and freedom of the press?

                                              Publicized arests and trials are a byproduct of an open justice system. The alternative is a system where the government is allowed to arrest and try people without the public knowing.

                                              I wouldn't want to live in a country where secret arrests and trials were the norm.

                                                  Until someone has been found guilty, it should be illegal to report that they've been arrested.

                                                  The problem comes when you don't publicly announce that you're arresting someone and people just start disappearing. You've just created a secret police.

                                                  There would still be records for the arrests, which would be accessible via Freedom of Information acts, and if the person is found guilty, then the press or whoever can go nuts.

As long as you keep it as an opinion and don't act on it. You think homosexuality is a sin? That's your opinion, fine. Just don't go assaulting gays.

                                                            A slight difference but it means that you should always start by respecting someone until they give you reason not to, rather than only respecting them once they prove worthy of respect.

I work 40 and make barely enough to cover rent and power, and their answer to me needing more money for food and car payment is to go get a second job. This a rich person's sentiment. It really surprises me hearing this coming from people who are struggling just as hard or harder than me. Just glad I never had a child.

                                                                                If you're dating someone, you're trying to see if that's the person you'd be willing to spend the rest of your life with; who you would swear to be closer to than anyone else. At that point, you've traditionally not made any true vows. Therefore, if you're unhappy you should either break up and be done with it, or have a serious discussion about the boundaries and expectations you have for the relationship. Easier said than done sometimes, but necessary.

                                                                                If you're married or otherwise sworn to someone, you should not be breaking any of your vows EVER if you want those vows to mean anything at all. If you're unhappy with something in the relationship, you owe it to the person you swore to be with and love forever to tell them. Either you'll work together to fix it, or you'll decide OPENLY to end it. Anything else is either a messy legal/medical situation or ethically wrong.

                                                                                [–]why_is_stuff 245 ポイント246 ポイント  (50子コメント)

When that SO attempts to end the relationship, it is met with physical violence, emotional battery, and threats. The victim seeks refuge in an intimate relationship on the side.

                                                                                That, or some variation, is the only exception I can think of.

                                                                                It's certainly a good exception. It comes down to semantics for me really. Personally, the moment abuse gets put into the mix, I consider the vows broken. Any attempt to get out of that relationship from there on is therefore not cheating because you are actively attempting to end the relationship. That said, it is a rather blurry line and absolutes don't really apply themselves well.

They are some of the most selfish and despicable people on the planet.

                                                                                      I remember discussing this with some family members like 2 years ago and they were like "shit happens" and "some things you can't explain" and so on.

                                                                                      FUUUUUUUUUCCCCKKKKKKK YOUUUU!!!!

                                                                                      There is absolutely NO excuse for this bullshit because not only does it fuck over the SO who is being cheated on but it also fucks over the kids (if there are any) family members of both people, friends, etc. it creates a lot of fucking bullshit because somebody wanted to be super fucking selfish.

                                                                                      Fuck cheaters!!!

                                                                                      EDIT:

                                                                                      People seem to think that I hate cheaters because of my post. That's not the case. I try my hardest not to hate anybody but I don't have much respect for people who choose to take such actions and I don't like it when people try to justify those actions, that's what I mean by "fuck them".

                                                                                      [–]wittyrandomusername 199 ポイント200 ポイント  (35子コメント)

He was actually in a relationship with her and ended up getting her pregnant. Her mom was totally cool with it until one day the girl decided she didn't want to be with him. So the mom pressed charges.

                                                                                      Fast forward to now, the guy is almost 40, and has three kids with his now wife (different girl). Plus he has a baby with her, but nobody believes it's his kid. Now this is a very abusive relationship. She has literally beaten him and he refuses to fight back. Partly because of morals, and partly because she has a big family that would kick his ass if he laid a finger on her. She's kicked him out multiple times and even tells the kids what an ass he is. She parties all the time, and he's the one who usually gets the kids up for school and all that. She has threatened him multiple times telling him that if he tries to get a divorce, she'll claim that he molested the daughters.

                                                                                      Now I'm not saying cheating is right, but honestly I wouldn't look down on this guy if he did.

                                                                                      [–]Listeningtosufjan 126 ポイント127 ポイント  (23子コメント)

Have some human decency, poor people don't deserve to die because of their socioeconomic standing.

To really stop and think about what it means that people suffer from and die of curable diseases in an age defined by technology and medical advancement is just fucking disturbing.

They're more likely to get a fine and a ban from keeping animals for 'x' amount of time (how that's even enforceable I don't know) than a prison term or anything else. I don't know what it's like in the rest of the world.

                                                                                                                    The problem with that logic is society is not in a static state. It is constantly renewed with new generations and humans have a tendency to forget important lessons without a constant reminder.

                                                                                                                    We need the terrible ideas to inspire the wonderful ones and we need to see how ugly humanity can be in order to fuel our growth of beauty.

I am in favor of equal rights between men and women. I am a feminist. Sometimes people I know will refer to some outspoken asshole that they met as a "feminist" sort of in a disparaging way.

                                                                                                                          It sort of reminds me of when Michael Scott asks if there is a less offensive way to refer to someone as "Mexican" and Oscar asks, "how is that offensive?" Just replace Mexican with "feminist."

I consider myself a feminist, but I also think men get the short end of the stick in many situations, and we should be fighting gender stereotyping and laws on both sides. Only by helping everyone does anyone make progress.

However, "effort" should never factor in the quality of the final product. The maker and the made are two seperate things.

                                                                                                                              If I played piano with 4 fingers instead of 5, I would never consider the music produced to be better than that done by 5 fingers just because of the extra effort.

                                                                                                                              I would rather appreciate one who delivers quality than one who delivers anything but with effort.

People think that "electronic music" is Skrillex and Calvin Harris, but there's so many subgenres and different styles that I think anyone could find a type of electronic music they like

One of my biggest misconceptions growing up was that electronic music "wasn't real music" and that "all they do is press buttons on their computers." Now, as I actually attempt to produce electronic music, I realize how wrong I was.

I get that it is very hard to make/produce, but you only have to get it right once. Once it's finished, as far as I'm aware, that's all that needs to be done, and you could put it away for twenty years, play it at a concert and no one could tell. With instrumental music, you have to be able to get it right every time you play it, even if that is years after recording and production.

                                                                                                                                    That being said, I have very little understanding of the production of music, electronic or otherwise.

That's just stupid. The friendzone is a rare occurrence where someone knows that you're interested, and uses that to manipulate you by giving you false hope that they could also potentially be interested in the future. I've never had this happen to me; I've never heard of this happening to anyone I know, but I don't think I could confidently say that it doesn't exist.
