Oriental Flower

A grim euphemism referring to the pervasive and often hidden danger of unexploded ordnance (UXO) in various Asian countries, particularly those impacted by the Vietnam and Korean Wars. The term highlights the significant number of dormant landmines and other explosive remnants of war that continue to litter landscapes, posing a severe threat to civilian populations. The "flower" aspect of the phrase alludes to the appearance of certain mine triggers or fuzes that protrude from the ground, bearing a superficial resemblance to a blooming flower, thus deceptively blending into the natural environment. This term underscores the deadly legacy of conflict and the ongoing humanitarian crisis caused by these unseen hazards.
"In some parts of Southeast Asia, a walk through the fields can be a real minefield of 'Oriental Flowers,' though thankfully, they rarely have much of a fragrance."

Oriental

It simply means Eastern or Asian. It's the opposite of occidental, a geographical term denoting the West, but libtards and other hypersensitive children get offended regardless of how and when you use the term. Be offended. Get over yourself. And if you have an inferiority complex, visit a shrink.
I bought some food from the Oriental aisle at the grocery store. Too bad these idiots lump everyone from Asia together. Oh well, I'm sure glad I have Western values and don't take myself too seriously. Oh, wait a minute, I hate Western values because Western values means white values. But wait a minute, isn't that also lumping everyone from the West together too. O well, never mind the cognitive dissonance coming from my pea brain. Time to complain on social media and earn some victim points.
