Consumer choices, socio-political consciousness and you

[derspiess]

For shits & giggles I avoided buying French products for a period of time.  And while it was commercially available in the late 90's I avoided buying 7.62x39mm ammo that was made in Zimbabwe (even though it was cheap and supposedly well made).

Can't think of any other moral or political factors I've ever had in my buying habits.

You'd pick the skinny crazy/needy Asian? Really? Have you learned nothing Ide

As long as they stay skinny, crazy, and needy, everything is fine.

is it like the fire pyramid where if one wall falls it all fails?

Stay away from the crazy asians. talk to Cdm if you need to. he has a support group

Despite all the warnings here, I feel like I've missed out on something.  I don't think I've ever even spoken face to face with an Asian girl, let alone date one

Not even Asian American?

Have you been living in a cave?  There are only a billion chinese alone.

Personally, I briefly dated a Japanese girl in college - very crazy.

After a couple of other crazy chicks I swore "never again", and have made good decisions with women ever since.

Of course, however, as you folks know, I'm a lacto-vegetarian (and crustaceans don't count).  So obviously I try to avoid products with dead animals in them, like hamburgers or Lee-Enfield rifle cartridges from the mid-19th century.

Cool! Tell me about your super-powers.

I generally don't care, but for some weird reason, I can never get myself to by Citgo gas.

Lettow has space on the crazy bus for the "VISION QUEST TO THE WEST".

I only use gasoline I have personally pumped out of the ground and refined with my own backyard refinery.

I realised I actually stay away from anything from Denmark. It's an evil place.

Not even Asian American?

No, sir.  My wife is as ethnic as I ever went, and she's probably about as white as I am.

How ever many there are, anywhere I lived or went to school had very small numbers of chinaman girls.

See, you guys call them crazy & usually mean it in a bad way, but there's almost always a good side of "crazy".  So I feel like I missed out.

No way.  Their ham, cookies, cheese & beer are too good to pass up.

Not that hard to believe. He's living in an area of the country which has been stagnant for decades. Asians are mostly recent immigrants, they move where the jobs are.

I think I'll pass.  While the prospect of being the "sane" one is appealing, I might find myself having to kill him.

I can understand not dating an asian girl, but never having talked to one?  I mean there were plenty of asians in Winnipeg even, which was not (at the time) an economic hotbed.  In the mean time there are several female asian lawyers in this outfit.

And the good side of crazy so does not equal out the bad side of crazy.  At all.

Isn't he from West Virginia?  Maybe that's the cause.

Lived my first 20 years there.  Then moved to Wilmington, Delaware for 8 years.  I've been in Cincy since then.  None of those three places have many Asians. 

When I went to Marshall you could probably count the total number of Asian students on one hand.   Delaware wasn't much different in that respect-- in fact, Jews were the closest thing to a minority at UD.
