Yesterday at Starbucks my friend and I were having coffee next to the window. It seemed like after every 5 or 6 minutes a small child and their mom would stare at us,point, wave, smile and walk away. My friend mentioned that we are like a monkey at the zoo. Maybe next it happens, I'll throw my banana at the window and jump around on the table.

Many moons ago I managed the kitchen in a pizza restaurant in England.

My boss was an extravagant gay guy. Fucking revolting character he was all fucking spotty and gangly. Used to discuss his protein breakfasts in the kitchen.

New Years day he had to open the restaurant for a few hours. He didn't want to serve anybody and the only people who appeared to be wandering around looking in were Chinese students from the uni down the road.

Every time they looked in the window he ran out the side door of the restaurant wearing one of the waiting staffs panties on his head and her bra on and started throwing chicken wings at them shouting that here were their chicken wings and to go away.

Bizarre old day.

It can be terribly, terribly annoying, I know, but try not to get offended because they point and giggle out of reverence your high nose and big eyes which Koreans in their millions have artificially imposed on themselves. Learn some rude Korean phrases. I know many and have used them many times and get this - this backs up my point - when you let them know that you're displeased and offended, they simply have no idea what they've done wrong, will look at each dumbfounded, and usually apologize ("sodey") none the wiser as to what they've done that's bad.

I turned a corner the other day and surprised a kid. He told his mates that there was a waigookin. To be fair, he was just surprised.

I asked him in Korean where the waigook was, and then told him I was Korean.

Loved the look of shock on his face.

I had walked about 10 m on before he got it together and then said hello to me, in Korean

Why I never take a street-level window seat at a Korean restaurant.

Seriously, don't take the stares personally or let them get to ya. Foreigners are new to this country, are rare, and interesting... let em stare! Heh, I don't care. And have fun with it like the guy who posted above me did.
