So I was reading a few messages on a youtube thread today and noticed a guy with the SN, EartCzar01. Apparently he had become so tired of retorting to K-netizen comments with factual information that he just started making up his own sarcastic facts:

"It has already been established that the risk of contracting BSE is much larger for Koreans. But the reason is not due to Pringles, although they are a very tasty treat, it has more to do with the size of the male reproductive organ. It seems that the risk of contracting BSE is indirectly proportional to the size of said organs. Therefore, the more well-endowed one is, the lower the risk of contracting BSE, no matter how old the beef is. Thus, Americans have low risk, Koreans are very high risk."

"I have discovered through hours of very in depth and undisputable scientific research that Mad Cow disease can be prevented by exposing any beef to the highly radioactive waves that emanate from all Samsung cell phones. Unfortunately the phone will also kill your brian cells by the millions, but no worries, at least there will be no risk of Mad Cow disease."

"I just uncovered scientific research that states American cell phones do not emit radioactive waves that kill the BSE virus. This either means that there really is an American conspiracy behind the beef or that all Americans probably have a form of vCJD that won't show up for another 10 years." -me


It has become apparent to me that the only real way anyone could possibly fight back against the madness is to show how seriously we do not take their pseudo-science. It could be the new Chuck Norris joke - just make up some absurd fact you heard about how dangerous American beef is. What have you heard lately? (^_-)

I'd get more intelligent responses in arguments with my 1st graders than I would on Youtube.

Why bother to join those messy comment threads?

Yeah, I wouldn't waste my time if I was you. But my friend just came up with some pretty good jokes off the top of his head:

Historical evidence suggests American beef was responsible for the decline of the Roman Empire.

National Basketball Assocation representatives have recently concluded that Magic Johnson most likely contracted AIDS from eating a cow older than 30 months old.

Getting warmer...but not quite what I mean. Look at my friend's examples above and link the absurd dangers (whatever they may be) to American beef.

The iPhone will be released worldwide - minus Korea. This is due to the fact that iPhones actually contain American beef - the power source which fuels its intuitive new capabilities. iPhones are currently prohibited as a SRM (specified risk material) under the current agreement.


Recent evidence suggests that the consumption of American beef may cure cancer - by killing it with vCJD.

A detective has discovered that Charles Manson contracted vCJD from an American beef steak before going on his murderous rampage.


One article reads,
Police interviews suggest that nearly 100% of Korean rape victims had consumed American beef at some point in their lives. Even more alarming is the fact that the perpetrators consumed the beef at an equally high rate. Polls show mounting dissatisfaction with the Lee Myung Bak government as the evidence keeps piling against the import of beef from the United States.

Historians now believe that the carnage of the French Revolution was precipitated by the consumption of cows brought from the newly independent United States.

The popular 80s computer game Oregon Trail has recently been banned, for fear that the pixelated oxen in the game may have been exposed to bovine spongiform encephalopathy through noncompliance with beef industry safeguards by both the banker and the farmer.

Uhmm.. wouldn't that kinda be counterproductive though?

You know those U.S. beef-hating Koreans probably scan these boards too. Once they find this thread, they'll use it to their own advantage and quote to others "See, even foreigners know the dangers of U.S. beef!" It doesn't matter if they know it's a joke or not, as long as it serves their interests of banning U.S. beef from the Korean market.

The sad thing is Koreans really will believe that American beef caused the decline in the Roman Empire and AIDS in Magic Johnson. We don't need anymore false info flying around, it'll only prolong this U.S. beef and Mad Cow protest bullshit.

Though I do agree with you about making up stupid ridiculous dribble, but about Korea though. You know, give them a taste of their own medicine. Laughing

Here's another we cooked up:

YMB Sisa has began teaching an alternate form of a popular children's rhyme.

Hey diddle diddle,
The cat played the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon.
The little dog laughed to see such sport,
And American beef is unsafe.

If Koreans want U.S. Beef banned from Korea, then we want Korean electronics banned from America!

Korean electronics are uninteresting, boring designs, unimaginative.

Mario Kart Wii will be released in Korea minus some features contained in the Japanese and American versions. Notably, Cow Country - a favorite race track among Mario Kart enthusiasts - has not made it into the final Korean release.

Koreans should learn this saying: Treat others as you would like to be treated.

Let's start telling them "We heard Kimchi is hazardous and carcinogenic. Koreans want to kill the us with Kimchi! We are in the process of getting Kimchi banned from the U.S.!!"

Tell it to the kids. They'd have trouble with that one. Laughing

A recently published Korean geography book reads:

"Some countries resemble everyday things. It is famous that Italy looks like a boot and that the Korean peninsula resembles a tiger, albeit in a slightly contorted position. Have you ever noticed that the continental United States looks like a cow left unable to stand and ravaged by bovine spongiform encephalopathy? What other countries have shapes resembling everyday things?" -pg 93

Actually...kimchi may in fact be a cause of the high rates of stomach cancer here in Korea. Ingestion of pickled vegetables seem to increase the risk of contracting stomach related cancers.

You're not all that far off tigerbluekitty...seriously.

Getting a Korean to admit as much...good luck with that.
