I've had several Koreans tell me they are sure I must be type whatever. Many have guessed, none have been right so far. Har har.

The Korean take on this derives from Japanese eugenics research/theories. Here's an article from Wikipedia:

I'm too annoyed to go poking around the Chosun Ilbo. (Good articles about boob jobs, though.)


And while you're at it, the Japanese got it from Nazi propaganda that was intended to prove Asians are inferior to Aryans.

Brothers in the East kind of thing??

Anyway,I tried to do a lesson on personality with my HS students today.

My MS they were passive,HS they're blatantly uninterested.

However,when,as an activity at the end I got them to try to guess others blood type based on adjectives they suddenly became very animated,even if the answers were somewhat predictable.

Psychotic is an adjective,psycho is the noun........ Rolling Eyes

I tried to list the characteristics,so called,on the board.

For some reason I put up OB.No response.Oh....thats's a beer...guess I got flustered.. Smile
