Achievements & Ascriptions

Oh wow, totally. Achievements and Ascriptions must be one of the most confusing shit
I have ever studied for.

Ascriptions is like SO similar to Stereotypes but no... its NOT.

Other than that, found that this statement kind of true in a sense :

1. The first rule of sarcasm is: Do not use sarcasm on people who do not understand it. (This does not just mean people who do not grasp the concept. It also includes people who do not have a sense of humour or irony. eg. the fake[1] girl sitting next to me, who gets the concept but does not understand the purpose.)

And of course, applying to my personal knowledge,

The person you should fear most while on the rise to power is not the evil genius,
hot headed rulers, confused dictators with family issues, but its the plain, boring old people. Why? Its as simple as this, your acts of trying to decieve these dimwits will instead backfire at you because they just WONT take the bait.. its as simple as that. And you will be like spending the rest of the day pulling your hair trying to figure out why your actions do not affect him.

Oh what a PAIN.

And so I heard, Spicy being teased as 'dwarf' or 'ai-de' was not as bad as this poor girl; Her name is Daphne *something* Ya Zhi.

Ya Zhi = teeth in chinese.

So, that name was like BORN to be teased. People started calling her names like Daffy, ducky, quack etc. And the best part is, when people call her those nicknames, she just replies with a nonchalant 'yah?' with that '?' on her face. Epic.
OR so I've heard.

I was like LOL'ing.

Uhh.. TNS lectures are like x4 better than DIC. One 20min 'video' of a pixelized slideshow can kill my conciousness. Dead.

Universalism - Particularism
Specific - Diffuse
Achievements - Ascriptions
Communism - Individualism

Nice.
