Kanasai

I remember the time when I asked an online friend what "kanasai" meant. It must have been at least 3 years ago, back when I was into online gaming. We would engage in small-talk and it's so frequent for that word to pop up during our conversations. Turned out that the Hokkien-term translates to "like shit".

How innocent I was (and still am, thank you); It never crossed my mind that "like" was used as a preposition instead of a verb. So I asked, "Why would anyone like shit?", and he started giving me simple examples - "That tastes like shit. You look like shit. She pwned me like shit."

Oh, okay! ...

I think it's so low to compare things to shit; especially after you've put it into your mouth. Really, shit? Why should anything even come close to that?

Ugh, sickening.
