Q: What do you think abt some ppl who are lack of common knowledges?
First of all, let me say many Chinese are lack of it. It's an old topic now.
What I wanna say here is ppl in general who are lack of common knowledges due to education, experiences, family background, personality, friend circles, etc differences. When you wanna talk about a simple thing with them, you find out you need to start from like a 5 year old kid knowledges then to the level of a well-rounded adult knowledges. It surely will cost your much time and energy to do the talk. It's tiresome.
Just like a foreinger often run into an ignorant Chinese..that kind of frustrations...Honestly, I had give higher expect to ppl from developed countries in general...but I realised it's just the same....if it's not same, they will turn themselves into an ignorant Chinese to be at a same level...
For me, ppl just be what they are is fine. I appreciate fair mind, honesty, self-respect, self-learning, etc good merits of humanity and try my best to be a better person, but I think I might be wrong about this after I've been several Beijing based internet forums, most forums got persons are not themselves in real life. I dont really understand this because I had expected ppl are same no matter online or in real life. No matter in home forums or in a foreign forums...
Could anyone enlighten me here?
For some unknown reason some Chinese people pretend to be Americans usually,i would rather speak with people like you happy to be Chinese,even if i dont agree with you ,youre a real person as long as the internet is concerned

Yes, It's very ok not agree with me. The most important thing is we get our opinions through a mutual understanding. The bad thing about this site is those miserable ppl dont listen at all...they dream they can change a big country like China, they dream if they can not change it, then poke fun at it, these are their only little fun in the life I guess....Truely sorry for these unfortunate ppl..... For me, I actually agree with many things here, but I want to offer a different perspective for ppl to see a round side about things here, so ppl find the way to enjoy their life "here and there"....Life is not dream....it's reality....it's important to be happy here and there... Hating bring the unhappy feeling to ppl.....It's really a waste of time to be unhappy at here.......Maybe some ppl just have been unhappy for their entire life, so they dont know what is happy now.......
You mean like the difference between knives common knowledge sort of stuff....people don't know anything about the quality they are using. Wooden knives rot, Plastic knives break easily...partial tang is worse than a knife with full-tang, having rivets for knives is important and the handle of a knife can prevent accidents in the kitchen...Yeah a lot of people don't know general knowledge...
I don't understand why some Chinese on here pretend to be Americans, when there are so many arguably better nationalities to pretend to be. Australians, Canadians, Scottish - even British or New Zealanders. Is it because you don't have to worry about the spelling being correct?
mattaya:
I already asked that question...some said that their fingers were too big and their keyboard was too small...go figure!
crimochina:
canucks arent better than americans , aussies hell no!!!!!!!!!! kiwis maybe. scottish hell yeah!!!!!!
Traveler:
Hardly worthy of reply, but I feel sorry for Crimo's lack of understanding of international preferences. Everyone likes the Canadians more than the Americans, except the Americans.
I guess it is a matter that many people just dont care about certain things and refuse to learn them or promptly forget them.
Often times, knowing something for the sake of simple education often times is an exercise in futility. For many, if they cannot "use" the knowledge for something, then they are not interested.
If they lack common knowledge because of lack of opportunities, then I feel sorry for them. If on the other hand, it is because they just dont care then I feel contempt.
Hope that answered your question.
Localla:
You quite answered my question...:) I actually know some answers....I just want to try again to let some ppl understand what their problems are.....these problems are why they dont have friends at all..dont have a stable and good jobs..etc.......this is why they ended up in a developing country and sadly complain everyday.......and think they are complaining about the government here just (it's not).......creepy ppl is the big problem of this world nowadays i think....
GuilinRaf:
Yes, no matter how good something is, you will always find those who will complain. I have seen many complain here with just cause, but I have also seen many complain for such silly things. Like my chinese freinds say, "naixing" (patience).
Most people just can't be bothered to think beyond what they are told. Chinese, American, Brits, etc... It is the same all over the world.
