An ajumma in a super market walks up to the counter and puts down her items. Among them is an egg carton. The owner of the store looks at the carton and notices that two of the eggs have been cracked. He tells her some of the eggs have been damaged and he will replace the carton for her.

But the ajumma says no. Instead, she makes a confession. She tells the owner that she accidentally cracked the eggs and she will pay for her mistake. The owner can't help but feel good about the honesty in the woman. After all, this is Korea and he rarely gets to see a customer with such integrity. Especially from 'jummas.

The ajumma pays for the eggs and leaves the store. Sometime later that day, the owner walks by the egg aisle. He suddenly freezes because he can't believe what he's seeing. All of the egg cartons have descended to the floor and the eggs are all crushed. The ajumma somehow dropped every single carton on the shelf. Then she simply took the one with the least number of cracked eggs and went to the counter.

100% true story.

I would have LOVED to see the look on his face.

Not that I condone what the ajuma did, but on the same token serves the guy right for being so trusting.

I am not a troll for christ sake.

In the last three weeks I have

1) vented
2) criticised
3) tried to buy a turkey pan
4) tried to get people to play poker
5) tried to start a writing club
6) helped people with gym questions
7) advised on Korean websites.

I am not just an "ignorant foreigner" who trolls the board looking to complain, however even IF thats all i was, Id sure be in good company on here now wouldnt I.

You have issue with what I said on the "Sympathy" thread, FINE, I noticed that you have not yet responded to my last comment either. have you even read it?

I guess if I am not complaining about KOrea every two seconds I am labelled a troll. Heaven forbid someone like the country and defend the damn place.

What do we call the people who do next to nothing except spout off about how bad Korea is?
