I don't know why my pants would say something like that, but my legs would agree. They're always plotting against me. I blame the feet. They are natural rabble rousers. That's why I scrub them. Constantly.

I take a month or two off, here and there... I simply mentioned it one of the times I get fed up.

I recommend people take breaks from this place. Most foreigners I know in Korea don't even come here.

Free time. Frustrations needing an out. And lots of bandwidth.

I think of it has "pub talk" and that the poster should prepare him/herself to throw down at a drop of a hat.......

I just think alot of people get a kick out of roasting others on an anonymous message board because it makes them seem bigger and more important they really are...kinda' sad though......

I've always said there are some of the biggest losers on this board: people who shouldn't've left their hometowns, culturally conservative people who can't accept other people, know-it-all university grads, Christians.

When I want serious, mature discussion, I go to www.skinheads.net because it seems the average skinhead is much more open-minded and reasonable than the average English teacher.

this place is 90% entertainment, 10% information.

i remember posting a question about a job and which part of seoul to live in and got 2 replies. but any question about whether korean girls are hot gets 20 pages.

I second the observation of the conspiracy of the feet.

The entertainment I find nothing at all entertaining about this forum.

I will continue to whine and complain and correct spelling and grammar.

I will however never misogynate or is it misogynize?

Come on, look at how slow slow the Internet is in Canada. Coming to Korea and not going online is like going to the beach and not going for a swim.
