i believe there's a plan for our life, and that, no matter the choices we make, the outcome was already made for us beforehand. so there isn't luck, although you can certainly call circumstances lucky or unlucky, but in the end, it comes down to you. coz of course, you can let yourself go and be a piece of shit, but that was the plan. and on the other hand, you can be famous and the best person out there, but that was the plan in the first place.
Asia? What does it mean?
-
Can someone tell me why is everyone who isnt from europe or from africa or the americas, are called asians? Most people from asia don't look the same, share the same culture, or speak the same language, btw arabs are technically asians right? So are the turks and indians, right? I'm confused.....help?

Asia is just a convenient label it doesn't really mean anything, same with the other continents

@Just_a_person just a general umbrella term for folks from that continent. Convenient for us westeners as we're maybe not able to distinguish between say Thai or Korean very well
-
@Scottish oh i see, so thats how westerners see us asians

@Just_a_person we just don't have enough knowledge. I would imagine it would be equally difficult for say a Japanese person to differentiate between say a Bulgarian and a Romanian. It's just that the familiarity and local knowledge isn't there, there's nothing sinister to it
