In korea the number 4 is related to death and is a very unlucky number. Therefore all the older gerneration buildings and apartments you see in korea substitute the number 4 with F in the elevator buttons.

Well as a coonass some people still think we paddle pirogues to work and school. Well most of these people think we don't go to school at all.

The deceased come back as Orca.

I don't think anyone actually believes this anymore but it's a nice ideal to hold on to.

The three language had shared a common history and they have much similarities

I am Chinese however the number 4 isn't as bad as it was.

In the US, there is a signifigant number of zealots out there that lhink what Bush is doing ot our country is good. Much in line as to how people that like Osama think he is good for the world.

But if you actualyl think about it, you'd probably realize you are an idiot.

Yeah, Japanese don't say shi for 4 because of its meaning (death)... So, they replaced 4 with yon, and 7 with nana (it was shi-chi, so durr yeah).

Democracy is the worst form of political organization, except for all the others.

In Japan, it's been said that if you pee on a large earthworm, it will actually pee upstream your pee and give your penis a major infection.

There's another one where if you make an ugly face on purpose and a fly lands on your face, you'll permanently stay that way.

Also playing musical instruments at night will bring man eating snakes out.

My grandma is weird.
