My Boyfriend Has Way too Many Video Games, What Should I Do?
Why do you need to handle his somewhat addiction? Is there something you are not getting from him that you feel you need? Have you tried to discuss this with him?
If his video game time is leaving you with no together time, negotiate a bit. Grab a controller and play something with him for an hour or so, you might find that you enjoy playing games with your partner. You can always ask him to compromise a bit, if you spend an hour playing with him will he spend one doing something with you, etc.
Not all of our hobbies align and thats Okay. I am sure you can find a way to work something out that is beneficial to the two of you.

As a Chinese person, do you believe when someone tells you that u201ctheyu2019re not against China, only against Communist Party of China (CPC)u201d?
Those are just sugar coated words made in order to make the speaker to appear to be non-racist or non-tribal, when, more likely than not, the speaker actually harbors a suspicion or even resentment against China or even Chinese individuals.Some people may object, and may use the example of Nazi to illustrate how one could appreciate many things about Germans except that one political ideology. But heres my objection to such a rationale: Nazi was in the past, so its quite possible for most people to be objective and rational about it, since any anger or emotional pain had subsided.
However CPC is different, its right in front, hence any grievance (real or artificial) against it is in the now. Support of CPC by mainland Chinese is well understood, so its very hard not to generalize CPC with China or mainland Chinese

Why did the Chinese Army play the music, Tunak Tunak Tun, on the China-India border?
Chinese thinks its like a measure to distract Indian troops, who are sitting at a height overlooking their positions at Finger 4.
This psychological warfare tactic has been used by Chinese army in the past as well.By playing loud music, the Chinese are not only trying to distract Indian troops, but are also trying to show that they understanding all their moves. Just before the 1962 war, the Chinese army played Bollywood/Hindi songs as an intimidation tactic and also to demonstrate that they knew the Indian language.
A majority of all Indian Army soldiers converse in Hindi and Punjabi. It is possible that Chinese soldiers may have overheard Indian troops humming songs in Hindi or Punjabi in the past and are trying to show Indian troops that they are not under worried about recent developments.

What are some lesser-known sights to see when visiting Chongqing, China?
Last two weeks I visited the dadukou museum and Hua Sheng Yuan dream castles which are both in the dadukou district. As for me I am preferred the latter one because of the beautiful castles.Some are still constructed .
Some are perfect.The detailsAnd cakes in one of the castlesIts usually seen that newlyweds take wedding pictures here. And Its lucky that many people havent found it out so there are fewer people over here than in other scenic spots.
The ticket is cheap, 10 yuan each one.However the place is a little remote.If you want to have a look,youd better make clear where it is.
As a native in Chongqing, the first time I came,I took the bus in but took the taxi out,so you should notice the bus stop in case you dont know where to get on. Hope my answer can help you.

What is sacrificed in the Chinese language to make it the world's most compact and efficient?
What tasks are more difficult or time consuming in Chinese? There must be some kind of trade-off.
Im not sure about the most compact and efficient, but what I miss most about the Chinese language is tense.
At first, this appears to be a feature, not a bug. No verb conjugation! No mindless memorization of irregular conjugations!
I am, you are, she is. I was, I am, I will, I will have. PitA.
But then, at least as a native English speaker, you start to miss it. Tense in English is messy. It sometimes mixes in aspect.
It mixes in other information. But it can be very expressive.Obviously Chinese has ways to express when an action takes places.
It has particles to indicate aspect. It explicitly states the time an action occurs. But it has not direct tense.
Perhaps Im biased as a native English speaker. Perhaps if my Chinese were better I would miss tense less. But I do miss it

Do Chinese people like black people?
No ,usually they dont like or hate any other foreigner unless you are Japanese .But most people dont like the smell of most foreigner (special black people), that make people dont want to close with them, the smell is really uncomfortable, even you can smell it far from 1 M away.Most people think those guy are too laze to take a bath ,I though the way too till one day I know why .
No one wish to play with laze people because the China traditional culture despise lazy.Racial discrimination is not work at here , because there are 56 races here since long long time ago , its a long time history could be told here , but in a shot word ,they dont care another one.What ever you feel at here , please take it personally ,not Racialist.
If you are a nice men ,you will get welcome ; if you are bad guy ,you will get troublesome

We know that smoking is dangerous for health, so why do people still smoke?
Probably a few reasons, but the biggest is you dont experience any of those health problems immediately. So then it becomes a kind of rebellion thing, my parents said smoking kills, but look at me smoking and not dying, stupid parents.
Also there are plenty of things that are bad for you that people do regardless of the eventual consequences. Drinking, smoking, drugs, and fast living are the easiest to reference, but lets not forget overeating, not excercising, overusing electronics, or not flossing. To the person who asked the question, do you yourself eat right, excercise, and take vitamins daily?
Do you floss every night, limit your screen time, get enough vitamin d through sunlight, and also use sunscreen everyday?There are so many things that can mess your body up over time, and thats without even mentioning the fact you will not live forever no matter what, that some people just do what they enjoy, and dont really worry about the consequences. Heck some people would rather not live past 60, and in reality probably wont.
Also, you have to realize that not everyone has the exact same viewpoint as you, or me, and so they do things you, or I would rather not, regardless of the consequences, or what people say is the right way to live. In other words they live according to what is the right way for them to fully enjoy life, and try not to think about all the what ifs, or going to happens, at least until they absolutely have to

Why can't the world stage show more respect for U.S.
Republicans?
I was a republican for a long time. I no longer am.
Have not been there for the last 11 years. I'm not a democrat either. I'm just a middle of the road independent guy.
The world stage is controlled by the media. In the media, God bits man is not a story; man bites dog is a story. It is the same way in politics.
Weird stories make the news. That is problem #1.Problem #2.
Most republicans are normal people. They aren't racist. They don't care where you go to the bathroom.
Most don't care if you are gay, straight, or bisexual. Unfortunately, a bunch of hard liner conservatives run the Republican Party. These people do not care about the people, only in keeping their jobs and getting money to flow from the party to the candidate.
Anything that upsets that is a problem. Doing normal things tends to be some form of a problem. Problem #3.
The republican leadership is a bunch of bullies. Yes, they were the guys that tried to steal your lunch money in school. They just yell and scream until they get their way.
The squeaky wheel gets the oil; they are the squeaky wheel. I can't even count the number of Facebook posts I have seen that say "a non vote is a vote for a democrat.Problem #4.
The ultra crazy religious fanatics. These people are completely f@cking nuts. They tend to be republicans.
With these stereotypical groups, it's not hard to find crazy material to plaster all over the news.Ps. Until republicans become more realistic, they will continue to be the minority party.
Pss. Democrats really aren't much better.Psss.
I don't care about your political views. Go lecturer someone else if you try to argue politics in the comments.

For those Chinese who insist the Westerners are the ones brainwashed, do they realize many of us (Chinese or not) living outside of China, could access their media while the opposite is not true?
It is a textbook case of frog in the well.
I am a Chinese student (sophomore).Now as Quora was banned(sadly it has been banned since at least 5 months ago,I don't know why),I need to use VPN to connect with you guys here.
People around me, my friends, 90% of them know twitter, facebook and many others apps which were banned long time ago in china, but they likely don't want to and needn't to use these apps, so they won't use a VPN.One reason is we have some apps to replace them, like we have Weibo( an app like facebook or twitter),we have Baidu(our Google),Zhihu(our Quora,personally I think Zhihu is better for using);the other is we actually can know whats happening around the world through our media, a lot of people get news through Weibo(me too). What we can't get is the things like drugs,porn,guns,something against CCP.
Some of my friends they go abroad to study, they even don't want to use Google,fb,twitter because they get used to use these apps in china, yes,they don't use these apps which were banned, but that doesn't mean they know nothing.We are not frogs, in a word:)
