I worked in Korea for four years - lived in an upscale suburban community that Koreans aspire to. Arrived late at night so was up fairly early the next morning with jetlag and walked out to see a guy in a fairly decent suit laying facedown on the sidewalk. I figured that an accident had happened but people were simply walking around him. There was another guy a few blocks down.
A fairly common occurrence late Friday night would be the sound of breaking glass or a guy banging on a door, him having forgotten his keys coming home drunk at 2am and his wife having locked him out. In a particular complex we lived in this happened, like clockwork, 1-2 times every week.
Proto has a story about Korean schoolgirls on the subway.

I honestly can't stand Koreans. It's the only national aversion I have.

I need a more convincing argument against it.

Many, and I honestly like people from both of those places. Filipinos especially are very friendly. Koreans just...*ugh*

Problem here is , what precisely?
Woke up at a Texas campground perhaps?

Well since Mak threw it out there let's just come clean. I can't fucking deal with 'Ricans and Samoans. I'm talking hair stands up on the back of my neck and I would swing a machete until I collapsed. I am ashamed but it's the truth.
Puerto Ricans are volatile, and they speak Spanish like a bunch of butt fucking dipshits. I prefer my Spanish speaking Americans to come from Mexico. Samoans are just plain disgusting.
Filipinos are still the worst. I'm getting all worked up over here.

LOL what's up with no love for the Soles? They're like the nicest people, I'm at a loss.
