> He’s not of asian descent. What?

• lordnacho 5y ago
  I thought he was a Chinese guy until I read an article about him. I'm sure a lot of people thought similarly, that it was one syllable "dang!" rather than Dan-G.

    "Dang" is still a common word in English though. It sounds like the article implies it's a common name or something, but Asia is a pretty big place

      >"Dang" is still a common word in English though Dang is a common euphemism for the swear word damn, https://mashable.com/article/origin-of-swear-words https://mashable.com/article/origin-of-swear-words - the euphemism "dang" was first used around 1780. I believe it is also regional and somewhat archaic in use now unless you are real religious and probably also rural. >but Asia is a pretty big place https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dang_(surname) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dang_(surname) surname in China, Vietnam, Korea, and India. Also apparently in Germany.
