We...um...us guys know this phenomenon. We walk into an establishment, we see an extremely hot girl, eye contact is made, and the mood is set for the kill.

Just seconds ago, she was giggly, flirtatious, and willing. You are in your groove. Your favorite music is banging in your head. Nothing could go wrong at this point. You've just landed the hottest chick you've ever....

Suddenly, the music turns off in your head. The girl looks like she's seen a ghost. The flirtation is gone. You suddenly feel like a criminal.

What could I have done?

You then turn around and guess what you see?

a) A mother holding her baby

b) Two teenage boys trying to speak to you

c) An elderly lady trying to get the clerks attention

d) A fellow male employee watching you.


The answer my friends is blowing in the wind.

I'd say both (a) and (d). The mother and the baby reminds her of her biological clock and the fellow male employee reminds her that that baby had better be a pure blood Korean. Confused

True sadness - The lack of individuality and intestinal furtitude in a society.

I used "intestinal" in this case because in these prototypical situations, it's the Korean females who pander to their societal norms. Females usually don't have testeeeeees. The males also pander to a considerable extent. From what I have seen, using testeeeees in regard to them may be quite a stretch. Now, if this was a shot at Zulethe, I disagree. He absolutely did the right thing and let the situation go. There's no sense in even trying for anything with a female who panders to her "societal norms" in the first half hour of meeting her. It's a total lost cause at that point!!

Some words to live by> Steely Dan - Do it again

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_YIUn9Jd1g&feature=related


In the mornin you go gunnin
For the man who stole your water
And you fire till he is done in

But they catch you at the border
And the mourners are all singin
As they drag you by your feet
But the hangman isnt hangin
And they put you on the street

Chorus:
You go back jack do it again
Wheel turnin round and round
You go back jack do it again

When you know shes no high climber
Then you find your only friend

In a room with your two timer
And youre sure youre near the end
Then you love a little wild one
And she brings you only sorrow
All the time you know shes smilin
Youll be on your knees tomorrow

Now you swear and kick and beg us
That youre not a gamblin man
Then you find youre back in vegas
With a handle in your hand
Your black cards can make you money
So you hide them when youre able
In the land of milk and honey
You must put them on the table

Thats why i date ugly korean women...... the ModEdit get all ready to make their move.... and then take a closer look at their intended recipient of forced protection. At which point they suck their teeth, say "Aishhh!" and then give me the 'go ahead mate, she's all yours' gesture.

The price of being with Korean women is eternal vigilance.

what's funny is that the normal mood killers of having people spitting, slurping and chomping their food, people yelling all around you etc isn't even included in the mood-killers while in Korea.

Placing a space between letters in order to avoid the swear filter is still a violation of the TOS.

You can get your message across without the vulgar language.

Play on.

But if they can't use that particular term, dear Mod, they lose 50% of their conversational abilities Exclamation
