Possibly domesticated the Camel.

This has definitely contributed to America in many untold ways such as live nativities and zoos.

Your ignorance of the matter is not salient to the discussion.


Aren't you spicy this morning? What are YOUR favorite three Somali dishes?

Name one thing the Chinese/Japanese/Colombians/Mexicans/Arabs contributed to America

To note the Chinese invented bureaucracy and meritocracy, both major contributions to America and Humanity.
The American scientific revolution was not possible with out Arabic numbers, the discovery of America was proceeded by the Renaissance, which heavily was inspired by Arabic preservation of Greek and Roman works.
Japan, the technical advances in video games and technology, the art forms of anime and Manga, and minimalism.
Not to mention cars like Toyota.
Mexicans and Colombians are new world countries with only 200 years as a people.
The Mayans though had unique pyramid designs and many other artworks.

No other way to lay it, honestly... at least that's what I've been learing.

Nice post, but I’m questioning this one. Meritocracy was always and everywhere. Sometimes it was superseded by things like primogeniture, but it still existed. In fact, European, or Arab, aristocracies were usually established through the merit of battlefield success.

The food was fricking disgusting.


It’s so bad that even Somalians don’t eat it and starve instead

I’m gonna say that neither eating that food or laying a gal that wanted to eat at a Somali restaurant was worth it. Sounds like she didn’t want to be in public view and was turned on by the skinny black with the long BBD



she was some dumb art bitch

Don’t eat that stuff. I assume it’s like Ethiopian food, but I’m as ignorant of it as you are.

I think you’re overstating for everyone else.

I personally am willing to dabble having been sent around the world for work and gotten to experience differing cultures.

Never in my fricking life have I seen an openly branded Somalian restaurant, assumedly due to zero demand, nor would I consider it if I did.

I don’t equate being at the bottom of the human gene pool as having anything to offer to me, via cuisine or anything else.

Its a good deep dive into the Keju system.

Its what we have more or less adopted.

Its very different than Roman patronage or survival of the fittest.

Its rather modern like our universities.
