"I don't have any mental disorders at all. I'm perfectly normal."

So, most foreigners say that they do have mental disorders? You need new friends.
All those other ones I've heard plenty of times. They are very commonly said by married men.

You noob. What's wrong with saying these things? I say those things. Lots of other foreigners here say them as well.

In some ways it is. Just depends on what you are looking for.

It's a pleasant surprise to find red beans in whatever I'm eating.

I would like to know one thing...why is it that Korean people are so obnoxiously and childish by bragging about everything...even if it's the most insignificant or stupidest thing in the world like thumbwrestling competitions? This immaturity and boasting is how 4 year old children act in most civilized countries until they mature out of it by age 10. However, Koreans seem to continue to act this way even when they are in their 30's and 40's. LOL. How sad and pathetic!

Also: "I don't think there's enough sickly sweet detritus in this here bing-su. How about we add a raw egg, and maybe some candied minnows?"

We have a winner!!!
Not nearly as worthy as that...but how about these....

Actually, no one has ever asked me that before, but yes...I DO like KimChi!

You don't mind if I leave my shoes on, do you?

I'm really glad the Won is crashing. Finally, my friends back home will be able to afford all of those great Korean products that I have been privy to every day!

"I'm so glad that when I was studying Korean, I was paying tuition out of my American bank account at about 900 won to the dollar, and now that I'm finally earning in won, it's 1148 won to the dollar. It has taught me to appreciate exchange rates!"
