Me - Sweetie what do you want to dress as for Halloween?
Sweetie - That's just commericalism! You should think about what Jesus would want!
Me - Uh Sweetie you're thinking of Christmas, Halloween has nothing to do with Jesus.
Sweetie - Oh. Which one is Halloween?

This has been today's Adventure in Cross-Cultural Marriage! Adventures in Cross-Cultural Marriage are brought to you by Pokari Sweat, the only sports drink that tastes like real sweat.

Your title sounds like a porno.

I was disappointed. D:

Ain't no pr0n films with the word marriage in the title. Not unless you've got a fetish for vegetable shopping or bathroom remodeling.

You'd be surprised man. I've seen a lot of things. A lot of things. In nam.

Here ya go:

It takes 100 stings to kill a man! OH FETH!

This problem would not have occurred if you had had the sense to be born British.

That seems pretty reasonable, actually.

Oh yeah! VHS or BETA? *Cheque dispatched*

Sweetie - Which way is north?
Me - (thinking) that way.
Sweetie - Oh. We need to buy a mirror.
Me - Uh OK.
Sweetie - and a plant.
Me - Uh sure.
Sweetie - Why didn't you tell me our entrance faces north? It's very bad feng shui.

You know Asians made up feng shui to trick white people into redecorating.

It's the same with chopsticks and Go.

Yeah the title did sound like a porno kind of.........

You people have odd fetishes.

Just saying.

Im noticing all the pr0n peeps are teens. Might be something there


These stories are funny. But I know for a fact that if I lived in another country that different, Id be the guy to laugh at for sure. But oddly enough I would enjoy it greatly

No, it's just I'm the only in my friend's group that actually is mature. I don't have a fetish.... Its hidden. Very well. But yeah. Teenagers my age do think of it differently. But yeah i'm also use to this Cross Cultural Marriage. My mom (a pure Aussie) married my dad (Pure Michigan Spartan Fan) had two opposite feelings for Halloween, Christmas, Easter etc.

My house entrance in Japan faces north. No-one ever mentioned it was bad feng shui. Most Japanese don't believe in it.

Mind you, you can't have your bed face north, or south, I forget which.

South, you don't want to slip down hill in the night.

It is because it is part of the Japanese funerary rituals.

The body is laid out facing north (or south). I can't remember which because it is over 10 years since I took part. Thus it is unlucky to sleep in the same aspect as the dead.

For the same reason it is unlucky to wear socks in bed. Putting tabi socks on the body is another part of the rituals.

Beating women ties in too. Extra points if you are in a bear-costume.

Yes but my wife is Japanese, however she spend 8 years in the Red, Blue and White Chinas so she had plenty of time to soak up all kinds of madness.

I've seen people admonished twice today for talking about furries.

It's not worth it, dude.

Sweetie - I have a headache
Me - Do you want aspirin?
Sweetie - No, aspirin only treats the sympton not the cause. There could be many causes, maybe cancer.
Me - So what should I do?
Sweetie - Massage please!

(because apparently massages cure cancer, or something)

I'm surprised she didn't tell you to give her acupuncture.

Yes, racists are often surprised when people don't meet their crude stereotypical expectations.
