If you're of a specific race in appearance, then you carry that on your shoulder to a certain extent. The race does have a direct and indirect impact on the way you think and act regardless of culture. For example, you see a random guy of oriental traits who is a 3rd generation US born citizen walking down the street, he instantly becomes 'that Asian guy' to someone who doesn't know him personally. You see a guy of western traits selling hot dog on the street of Seoul who is a 2nd generation Korean from the Korean war era, the first words of people who approach him would be 'hello' not 'Annyunghaseyo'. This is only a minor example but there are hundreds other scenarios as to why you're never entirely separated from your race. | ||

The difference being that you're being serious while the OP was a satire. | ||

The difference being that you're being serious while the OP was a satire. I'm saying that the line between trolling and being outrageously, needlessly offensive was crossed. Barely anyone in this thread got their panties in a complete bunch, some including me just expressed how distasteful, unfunny and pointless the op was. There is no difference between the generalizations I put there and the ones in the OP. And btw apparently you wouldn't know satire if it killed your extended family in a drive by. There is about as much satire in the piece as there are comedy cells in your brain ( <O ). | ||

OP took one stupid idea - A Korean man bragging about his cultural superiority - and beat the horse to death. By third paragraph, the rant was as satirical as HamerD's little example. | ||

Lack of creativity? Some of the most intriguing ideas (bad or good) come from Japanese writers and film makers. Who made Battle Royale? Who made the film Old Boy? See my point? And last time I checked, anime freaks consists of both Americans and Japanese, I know lots of American kids in my college foreign language class who are into Anime porn and obsessed with Anime I won't get into every piece of detail but most of your points come from your view influenced by the general Western media where they portray every Asian male as nerdy, martial artist, or wife-beating villian | ||

You seriously want me to waste my time for you and type up all the unique Asian films? Storylines from mangas / novels go into this category as well because they have the potential to become a movie. For example, Death Note became a movie but DN on paper was great, they did a bad job with the movie | ||

You would not. Don't complain. | ||

Firstly, I didn't mean that seriously, I put it in spoilers because I wanted to make sure the post wasn't about what I actually put. And secondly, have you just been trolled? You just gave me some counter-points, and clearly were antagonized by the points I put, even though they WEREN'T EVEN REMOTELY SERIOUS. That pretty much, right there, shows why you can't make OP's like this and consider your trolling to be 'successful' and then decry ANYONE who has a problem with it as 'successfully trolled'. This isn't fucking 4chan. | ||

This is definently a wanna-be Korean. Well actually, you could be Korean, since regular Korean people are into K-Pop, which I find ridiculously gay, and super girly. Im really embarassed of my country because of groups of people like Shiny, WonderBitches, and pricks who think they look sexy with a fuckload of plastic surgery, but in fact they just look worse then they already were. Jesus Christ some people need to get a fucking brain and learn when they really are ugly, and can't do shit about it. :edit: Time to rant to the friend of the OP First of all, I can't believe you actually wrote this shit. Because not only does it build another base for stereotypes for Asian, and mainly Korean people, but it has not benefitted you in any way. You might think it has benefitted you, making the "White man" look down on his feet thinking "Wow, I must be inferior now", but really, you haven't done shit to make them even have a double take. If you wrote this on a serious note, please read this spoiler. + Show Spoiler + You're a stupid ignorant prick that thinks irrationally and are stuck in a little basement with only hentai dolls and your algebra book. If you wrote this on a joke, Im still ashamed that you've actually wrote this, because you've proven yourself to the stereotypes that were given to you. (Asian = Study, Small Penis, Whatever the fuck you can think of) Whatever gave you the thought of writing this, Please tell me, because I am fucking dazed on what you just did. + Show Spoiler + Damn, I sound like I just had a period or something. :edit: Im a very sad panda. + Show Spoiler + PM from Klogon just ruined my day. | ||
