My bad.
I was taking a piss and there was a line for the men's room. I waited my turn but as I'm enjoying my stream some Canadian guy is talking about getting in queue. Then he makes a crack, "For you Americans, that means a line."
So I chuckle. All is well. Mid-American stream a Korean guy moves in front of everyone and starts espousing, "I'm waiting in line Korean Style." I thought that would have been funny but when people politely asked him to go to the back of the bathroom line he just kept commenting on how he was doing it the Korean way. I was hoping someone would smack him and he clearly was right behind me and just bold-faced thought he could disrespect everyone by being a iritating piece of smegma.
I had reached my limits with Korean manners. So when I shook and zipped up and turned, I looked it at him and he was rather proud of himself. I let my temper get the best of me so I threw him into the corner. Then I said that I would be glad to fight with him, not Korean style. Then made a mocking display of Korean fighting. I think he said he was sorry so I let it be and left downstairs.
A few people started shaking my hand for it. Then I started thinking about the situation and felt bad.
He deserved something for being a dick but not being thrown around. So for that I'm sorry. Next time though, don't shove your way to the front of the line and pull your Korean card. Especially on St. Patty's... everyone's Irish on that day. So you got treated as an Irishman would treat another in the same situation.
Anyway, sorry again. I should not have shoved you. Don't be such a tool next time. Many of us deal with the crappy parts of Korean culture so having it blatantly used to disrespect us is angering.
I'll buy you a beer if I ever see you again. Unless you want to cut in line and pay for it first.

Can I get your autograph? You're my new personal hero... It's high time Koreans conform to the bathroom etiquette of Irish culture. |

I say you handled yourself pretty well, albeit quite strongly. Just be careful in future that you don't endanger yourself or others, and be careful in case they have friends who decide to jump when you least expect it.
Hopefully, it helped make him realize a few things about treating others with respect. |

I'm 140 pounds, I don't understand why Koreans never pick on me. They'd probably win.
But I remember one of the OP's first posts, about how Koreans always try to arm-wrestle him or pick fights with him. Didn't he also tell a story about how he flattened some guy who tried to fight? Then the OP posted a pic . . . he's huge and has a beard.
Koreans have to learn how to fight short guys . . . it'd be a hell of a lot less embarassing than getting beat up by big guys. |

I hope you washed said hand before the shaking commenced!  |

Funny. I did too. Some British guy kept trying to insult me in his charming mush-mouthed dialect and I kept asking him to translate it. Eventually he walked away. That place was way too crowded yesterday, and full of d*****bags. |

I am down to a goatee. I don't get the arm-wrestling and physical challenges anymore. I think that had something to do with the full beard. It was always Korean men usually loaded with Soju. I was so tired of that but I swear after the full beard went away it never happened again.
The guy in the bathroom wasn't starting stuff with me. He chose to cut behind me and not in front of me.
I would have fairly small framed friends with me and they would be amazed at how they were ignored in favor of jostling or jocking to one up me.
Heh, come to think of it I was so angry I didn't wash my hands. So... sorry to those dudes who shook my hand about 20 minutes later. My bad again. |

I came this close to beating a British guy to death in the WH. About 3 weeks ago perhaps, this odious, truly ugly little *beep* face had been drinking all night and was being an ass, big willy style. Thankfully for all concerned, I was straightheaded, otherwise I'd have smashed his teeth out through his ass.
I applaud the OP. Stand up for what you believe in and crush any resistance.
Good Lord above, the riff-raff in this country.  |

What kind of Canadian would call it a "queue?" |

I remember your photo and you are a massive sod. No-one with half a brain is going to pick a fight with you but on the other hand you shouldn't take it on yourself to be the 'bad manners' sherriff - one of the things about going through life is the ability to tolerate low level, bad mannered arseholes without hitting or glassing them.
Ask yourself this - and be honest- if he had been as big as you instead of some weedy little Korean - would you have reacted the same way? Or at least thought twice about it?
Yes the guy deserves a wallop but someone of your size shouldn't have stooped to a level where the final resort was to physically humiliate him.
It is the actions of a bully who knew there was going to be no physical comeback.
I always walk away if provoked - it would take the idiot laying his hands on me for him to get a handful of my fingertips into his throat.

^^^I agree, next thing we'll have threads about someone seeing a cat cross the street. Coming soon "I saw a car" Wouldn't surprise me a bit if the OP was gay. |
