Chinese do not like loud eating, in which case you were probably referring to the Japanese where loud eating is encouraged and done as a form of etiquette

[@deadby15]

that's true only with noodles, especially buckwheat noodle, but even that is frowned on by most Japanese nowadays.

[@Jyoo609]

Xanthus Lim Chinese don't particularly like loud eating, they just eat and chew and make sounds without realizing it. Same does for Koreans and some other Asian countries. It's just not a big deal. I've only heard Japanese make loud noises when eating ramen. Some say it's phasing out but I still hear it a plenty in ramen shops. Basically it's just not something people in Asia are conscience about until they go overseas and get criticized for it.

Yea I just thought people slurp ramen/ udon/ soba whatever because it’s hot noodles rather than an actual etiquette thing.

The 2 finger salute in the UK did not come from archers having their fingers chopped off, it's fiction, not only that the fingers should be apart like a reverse peace sign. Sorry but with all this inaccuracy it makes me doubt that you fact check anything. There's lots of stuff on the internet which is interesting to read but sketchy but you can't just find it and use it for a video without fact checking.

[@loursfloral5409]

howabunga I agree there is a problem with this channel, the info is not at the level of the visuals. It looks like serious work but it spread s a mix of right and false with a nice and pro look... dangerous to me.

I'm sorry Howabunga, where do your sources come from?

[@tygonmaster]

You sure said a lot in that comment without saying anything. You posted no sources and are just spouting nonsense that runs contrary to popular belief to come across as edgy. If you have actual info to contribute, do it. Otherwise, you are just acting childish.

[@louisec-m9503]

I'm British. I can confirm the fingers should be apart. Also, it's not quite as rude as the middle finger - it's a little antiquated now, we've adopted the middle finger as the main swear sign, I'd guess due to Americanisation. I too have heard that the archery thing is a myth. I don't know an alternative place it could have come from and you can't prove a negative, so I don't know how you expect someone to provide a source for that!

I travelled to 4 countries in Asia (5 including mine) and when I did this to my friends I made in those countries they were asking on what I was doing. Also for Filipinos we don’t smack our fucking lips? That isn’t even a thing, eating quietly with our mouth closed is what our elders tell us which I assume is what you Americans do and we consider disrespectful to be eating with your mouth open and making noisy sounds while eating. But I guess I have to let this slip since you’re presumably an American and it really isn’t wise for an American to speak for people with major differences in race, culture, and ethics.

pink gui it's true to some degree (Korea and parts of China) that using red ink to write personal letters and stuff is taboo. But your argument about how red symbolizes good fortune means it can't symbolize death doesn't hold much weight. Depending on the context, colours can represent a lot of things, green is the color for greed and money in USA but it also is the color for sustainability and renewability in energy. It means can represent nature as well as envy. Colours represent many things. Red can symbolize passion, anger, lust etc
