Now I want some boba. Damn it, Jared!
You had ONE job, Jared!
To lose weight at Subway and not be a perv?
Their slogan was “eat fresh”
That sounds like two jobs
Fun fact:
The word “boba” came from the Chinese word for “large breasts”.
The boys were probably asking for those.
not true. please stop spreading misinformation. Boba (bôba) is originally a vietnamese word meaning ‘eggs of man’
edit: this is a joke guys come on
Context matters.
The “boba” in this post refers to the bubble tea drink, which originated in Taiwan in the early 1980s, and became popular worldwide eventually.
In bubble tea, the tapicoca balls were called 波霸 in Chinese, which is a slang term for “large breasts.”
Please let me know how that is misinformation. Or how the Vietnamese word got used in a Taiwanese drink.
You can do some fact checking and educate yourself:

Hey, in America we named a mountain ‘big tit’ and everyone is cool with it.
In Canada we named one “squaw’s tit” and that was somehow okay until like two years ago.
Also, there’s the tit family of birds.
in australia theres an island called N_gger Head 💀 and 2 places named Chinamans Knob
Sadly, there’s some places in the U.S. with that word in their name too. As far as the other one goes, here in Indiana, we have the town of Floyds Knobs.
Educate yourself just always sounds so douchey
I think it was a reasonable response to someone wrongfully accusing me of spreading misinformation.
They could have said that my statement was incorrect/inaccurate. But they straight said I was spreading misinformation, as if I did it intentionally.
Still douchey
Damn, The comment below really informed you how wrong you are. Are you going to edit your misinformation or just leave it?
It is true, but it also goes a little deeper than that. In the 1980s, Amy Yip, a Hong-Kong sexy actress, was extremely popular in Taiwan along with her nickname “波霸” (boba, or “the biggest balls” in Cantonese). Around the same time, people started to put tapioca pearls in drinks, and called the bigger tapioca pearls “boba.”
In recent years, people do consider it’s improper to use such a term and has been slowly moving to more SFW words as “大/小珍珠” (big/small pearls) in Taiwan, but “boba” has stuck too deep in the English speaking world.

Green tea Boba 🤤
My friend doesn’t understand…can someone help them?
Woman thought car full of guys was going to say something lewd and juvenile.
Turned out they just wanted to know where she got the bubble tea she was drinking.
The guys had been arguing about where it was. The guy who spoke to her was right, Jared was wrong.
My friend said that’s what he thought but he wasn’t sure because it seemed like there was something more.
I love boba
My kids love some boba
Mine love it till they get it. Then it gets wasted. Another person’s kid did the same and she wanted to try another flavor. Fuck that
Can’t blame Jered. It’s summer and I’m basically thinking of boba 24/7.
and that’s how i met your mother
Love how no one is calling her out for jumping to conclusions.
By conclusion, you mean the more likely scenario. I feel any guy that would call her out would be doing it knowing full well how guys act sometimes…most of the time if we are in groups.
She is likely basing this conclusion on prior experiences.
Or stereotypes.
Well as long as she keeps it in her head I don’t see the issue. Everyone has prejudices, the important thing is not to act with them as basis.
