Re: The Random Thought Thread

Garbaj has had only one half-decent song in her entire career, and it’s only because I’m a sucker for island dialects.

Bitches ain’t sh*t and they ain’t sayin nothin
A hunnid muthaf*ckas can’t tell me nothin

I beez in da trap be-beez in da trap

A timeless bop before the trap wave

One of the best Nicki songs

When I hear a Dua Lipa song on the radio, I can’t help but think of the good sis aRat.

That was really interesting, abi. I like how some of the respondents seem conflicted about the tradition. I wonder what is behind assigning a year at birth?

I'm not sure actually, must be something from the tradition they had hundreds years ago in China.

[Spartan]

From what I think I understand, a Korean baby is born as 1 years old (instead of 0). And on the first new year for the baby, it goes up to 2 years old. From then on, they just have normal birthdays on the day they were born.

By this logic, I celebrated my 30th birthday in Seoul even though I’m still 29! (And that was 2 years ago)

Happy 30th!

[abi]

It's like that in alot of 3rd world countries. My parents are from Ethiopia and only have a ballpark of their ages. They used to use new years as a way for them to add a year.

I guess birthdays are just culturally insignificant in some places in the world.

Really? I didn't know that.

But the thing is in Korea, you still celebrate your birthday with party & gifts and stuff, just for fun - but still your age increase during the new year, not on your birthday. That's really weird and cool.

Plus apparently in Korea, it's important to know the age of the person you're talking to, because you'll adress them differently based on their age, even if it's just a one year difference. Like for example, if you're 1 year older than me, it means you are my older brother instead of my friend - and I shall treat you differently than how I treat my friends from the same age. So it's normal for you to ask people's age when you first meet them. I think biscuit might explain it better, I believe he lived in Korea for a while.

It just feels fascinating to me to see a country as modern as South Korea still holds their traditional way of a few things. I believe they also have their own calendar or something (?).

The age thing fascinates me - it's nigh on impossible not to know your birth date in the UK as all births have to be legally registered, as do deaths.

Anyway, just want to share this.

When I first got into K-Pop I was really shocked to find out that most of the Korean celebrities that I admired were much older than they looked, only to find out later that Korean age system is different from the rest of the world. Basically in Korea, you're already 1 year old when you're born. On top of that, instead of becoming older in your birthday, you add another year in your age at the start of each year in Korea. So basically, if you're born on December 30, you're already 2 years old by January 1. That's... interesting.

anyone who still has sympathy for Nicki Garbaj after she didn't delete the nazi video and after she did the most to protect her pedophile rapist brother needs to take a really hard look at themselves.

Remy Gawd already said everything that needs to be said.

She doesn't even support her brother who did that though

Y'all gotta get your facts straight before you site to a heavy breathing diss track.

And how do you know that? Maybe what you said isn't all facts either

I can't digest plastic, so J. Lo

So Drake has only seen his child once??? He must be embarrassed because his baby mama is a porn star. That's his fault. Drake could have had the best of the best when it comes to women, but like most men, they will stick it in any thing walking.

He needs to see his damn son.

Twice apparently...but idk...his excuse for it ain't working.

And she ugly
