LookANinja 11/21/19 12:23:29 AM #1:	It was the scene towards the end when she's playing Mahjong, and the mom walks in and Constance Wu is like "Don't worry about them, they're half deaf and they only speak Hokkien." The mom looked at them with such disdain. You see, most my family is from the Philippines, but my great grandpa immigrated there from China, so my family speaks tagalog and Hokkien, which they pronounce Fukien, a common spelling variation. I've always felt kinda torn between two worlds, because i don't LOOK Filipino, I look more Chinese, but i speak way more tagalog than Fukien. Culturally my family has a weird mix of both Filipino and Chinese traditions, but i never really knew much about my Chinese background even though it's such a prominent part of my blood. I just feel like that little scene gave me some SMALL insight into my cultural background that i had been missing all my life. --- http://img266.imageshack.us/img266/56/picturesig.jpg https://imgur.com/b8HCz <cite>LookANinja posted [p:930458404] in There was ...
