This is a wierd thing kyopos like to say,this burger flipper thing....i went to a Macdonalds today in seoul..it was full of korean workers(every single one)..IN KOREA!!
|
Ironically, I was served by a Korean at McDonald's today, in America! He thought he was black "you want cream for your coffee dawwwggg" "hollah if you need more" etc. I've yet to see a white, native English speaker doing anything "Mc" in my massive American city.
Korea is a last resort for people who made bad education choices and thought an arts degree would find them gainful employment. |

| Yeah, it's always risible to see a hagwon muppet use the phrase burger flipper, since if a job whereby saying "I like ice cream - how about you?" in a Korean kindergarten isn't McWork, what the heck is?? |

nope..
1997 Iranian Woman of the Year,and wiki lists her as persian
sure,she was later educated in states as well as uk,but first went to school in iran
she speaks english with an accent,not british.
she is married to an american govt. official and lives in new york
her names are not british at all.
she does not describe herself as british.
she does not like jam. |
Just because Iran claims her doesn't mean she's really Iranian, and anyone can edit the wiki. Her name doesn't have anything to do with her nationality either, or does her current residence or her marital status.
I'd say nationality rests on citizenship, parentage and self-description, and we only know one of those three. |

Christiane Amanpour has another commercial where she asks some poor black lady from Africa, "so this childs father has died from AIDS and his mother is also dying from AIDS...do you think he will be another orphan?"
And the lady looks at her and says, "obviously yes".
What a mind blowing-ly stupid question...and she is the SENIOR reporter...laughable. |

As someone from the UK, Id just like to point out that the below line is complete and utter rubbish.
That the poster cannot even spell Mcdonalds correctly is testament to that.
And that he cannot understand that seeing a white person there (student or otherwise) hardly means you 'never' see one.
Astonishing!

Were you thinking, perhaps, of McDonald's? |
