I'd be very worried about anyone who followed a signposted trail into a forest and then were unable to find their way back out again.
Natural selection, maybe. |

This takes me back to my first few months here, wondering why I can't use my American card on an American website to buy an American game. (The page auto url'ed to the co.kr site.) Or why my Korean bank card wouldn't work for that transaction either, because they require my national ID number, two sets of secret codes, the right "payment type" information (something like card, credit, or bank card), a special certificate for my computer, my mother's maiden name, and my high school mascot... and since the bank entered one of those values incorrectly, I'd have to wait until the next day and wake up two hours earlier to go to my local KEB branch and wait in the take-your-sweet-ass-time line with a number 18 in my hand, waiting for number 16 ajosshi to finish his hour-plus long transaction while watching the other teller next to him serve special clients who aren't required to take a number, wondering the entire time if I'm going to be late (i.e. less early) to work that afternoon. No thanks. I just transferred the money to a Korean friend at the dodgy ATM machine downstairs and had him come over and buy it for me. He had no problems. |
