    well although i think what she said is true in Asian countries i think Americans are way more laid back and i dont think its the international “Protocol” maybe for CEO’s and board of directors…..but thats not true for normal ppl with average jobs……if i did that ppl might think i am weird….who has time to remember all this…funniest part was ” you lost their face” !!

    lol hey dud sorry I lost your face. you got ano- oh.

  3. seamusg says:

    To hell with not asking for another one, if someone lost my card I’d happily send them ten more if it means I get their business.

  4. zeetvdell says:

    what if i slap her and tear that f***king business card in er face ! would that be presentable?

  5. pipcomicillusionist says:

    I want her business card so I can put it in my back pocket then ask her for a second one to put in the other back pocket

    gayest thing ive ever seen

  7. CodeKitten says:

    If a person asked me for a second businesscard, I would be happy. It means the card means enough to them that they would openly admit that they have misplaced it.

    There is no shame in asking for a new one. It shows appreciation. I totally disagree with Syndie on that one.

  8. CodeKitten says:

    Bwhahahaha… that’s hilarious!! :D

    hi syndi, even though you look like some sort of horrible asian midget male bowlcut freak, i have a proposal for you; how about you get one of your asian slut mates to come over to my house, suck on my cock, and then EXCHANGE my sperm with each other’s mouths. i’ll teach you the correct blowjob etiquette you fucking slut

  13. rubent100 says:

    haha shes asian so she thinks asians invented trading business cards. gtfo

  14. victoriaskincare says:

    Syndi is absolutely correct. When I was in Asia, I was prompted to do this very thing.

  15. johnchablo says:

    Now we are a global trading world, it helps to have information like this.

    “It’s as thought you have lost their face.” LOL.

    Interesting anyway.

  18. 90G10 says:

    definately pay attention to the card before putting it on your back pocket people will feel as you didnt care……….
    alot of this shit is commonn sense………

  19. SenorChito says:

    I got a better idea. Stop making shit up! “OH goodness, he handed you a card with his left hand! He offended you!” “No bitch, he didn’t I thought it was normal until you showed up to tell me what I should and shouldn’t be offended by. Choke on caviar and die.”

  20. certifiedjagga says:

  21. heyjeySigma says:

    haha I wish Cardcrusher was there…

  22. ChevalierAguila says:

    Cardcrusher would know what to do in this situation :D

  23. MrsOhnoMasaki says:

    This video is very useful. I have never exchanged business cards (I’m still young, so I don’t have any)… but it is true- I have seen my dad exchanging cards and you have to be very respectful in countries like Japan.

  24. Dexter2907 says:

    Goodness, isn’t that interesting! I didn’t realise the various considerations for other cultures and will definately take these comments on board. Thanks Syndie!

  25. Somerville87 says:

    Great video. When travelling Asia, I found the cultural differences are very apparent. This video is great for informing us of the more subtle differences.

    However, I could not help but laugh at its as if you have lost their face.
