lake michigan: Drinking hot water is not a "bad" habit, but you do have a bad habit of self-despise. On the other hand, you seem modest. Hope that helps.
Agree with below. Unfortunately, even from some comments of this article, we can tell there are so many inconfident poor souls, who are eager to show they match the rules set by others (by western culture, in particular). Just curious, how would they view the anecdotes such as how Bill Gates saved a parking fee of $12, or how Warren Buffett used a coupon to get discount...
Haha Su funny about ur guys' comments .I am proud to be a Chinese . I never try to hide . but Chinese really need to learn something if going international manners. also Chinese culture is really "show off" culture . Just want to show to people how rich I am , how important I am ,? how much power I have . It is really funny view of culture in west . Cup noodles is nothing wrong . The Hotel Manager did nothing wrong neither . Only thing wrong is how far the cup noodles had been going ? I think there must be a lot of cup noodles. It really hurt their businesses. So it is not a big deal . Go different places where they van accept cup noodles .
这是侮辱你. It is disrespect who you are! People in a restaurant may not know whether or not you are Chinese. How about your colleagues? friends? they also mistakenly thinking you are Japanese? Be who you are? Wake up, dude!
It also happened in Yellowstone. When I checked into a park hotel, the front desk lady told me that there should be no cooking in the room. I left a strong complaint in the feedback survey. It still felt like swallowing a dead fly. I wish I could fight back immediately.
