I said I wouldn't post anymore on here. I lied.
At Yongsan IPark Mall today, I was buying a cable for my laptop to connect to my TV.
You walked in after me, acted as if you own the country and thinking everyone should bow down to you because you are tall, blue eyed, and arrogant. I hate you. You had your motorcycle helmet and your foreigner girlfriend with you, who looked at me and smiled, maybe because she fancied me more than you.
Anyway, you were buying some kind of cable, about 20 meters long. You were really frustrated because the sales clerk didn't understand what you were saying in English to her. What the hell do you need a 20 meter cable for anyway?
I jumped in line after the Korean man behind you. You were really angry at him because you were on the phone with someone who spoke English on the sales clerk's behalf and he didn't feel like waiting until you got off the phone to ask the sales clerk a question. Makes sense and all, considering he had a simple question to ask the sales clerk who was fed up with your silver spoon-fed attitude. "Um, I really think you should wait your turn," you said to the man behind you very clearly, as if he is your kindergarden student or something, in English, as if he understood you perfectly." Your attitude was that of a pampered woman.
As I waited patiently for the sales clerk to address me, you were still in front of me expecting her to praise your perceived to be dominant "I am special because I am from another country, a better country, so bow down, kiss my feet after you polish them" attitude, not taking into consideration that the sales clerk, a young woman, no more than 16 years old, in the middle of her job on a Saturday morning, being interrupted by an ass like yourself, had to put up with your self centered nonsense.
You took up a lot of her time, as well as a lot of mine, expecting people to revolve around you, and the man in front of me, whom you yelled at, assumed I was your friend and pushed me aside as if I was a piece of garbage. Thanks.
Eventually you blurted out something to the sales clerk like "F this bitch," really loudly, and walked out with your cross eyed girlfriend, leaving the sales clerk standing there looking at me, waiting for me to give her an additional berating hassle.
I'm not perfect man, I've had my fair share of moments, but you my friend, need to get a clue and learn some manners. Just because you walk around with your helmet in one arm and your girlfriend in the other, who really isn't that special, doesn't give you the right to take your frustration out on a teenager working for less than minumum wage. Again, I'm not perfect, but you just warped that poor girl's perception of foreigners here. I hope you eventually found the cable you were looking for. Go suck a lemon. |

Sad to see idiots making life even more difficult for us here... |

You should have just dealt with him in the store, coming online to complain makes you look weak.
Now if you'd belted him a good one (verbally or physically) and then come here to tell us about it, different story  |

You negated the rest of your post with that line. |

I would have butt in and helped everyone out. Next time this happens, offer to translate. Write "20 m" and the name of whatever cable it is on a piece of paper, hand it to the girl, then make the universal symbol for "this long" with your arms. Save everyone involved a lot of time.
Ooooh, he uses a helmet when he rides his scooter. What a loser!!! |

Actually, anyones who is rude to a sales clerk has my immediate comtempt.
OP, shame on you for not calling out the a-hole right then and there. Like another poster said, you kind of look like a pu$$y by complaining about it on here instead.
Beleive me these rude people need to be called out on the spot. I've done it before (actually at a travel agency) and the staff ended up buming up my ticket to first class!  |

I feel for you, and I bet that guy will read your post. The funny thing is you called his girlfriend a foreigner. You're so Korean, man! |

Cry me a fooking river! Do you live your life as sadly as you portray it? Some guy, douche or not, upset your lil' day out and you use it as a gallant excuse to make a comeback on Dave's. Pathetic.
Welcome back.

I'll be you've never even eaten LSD. You probably wouldn't last more than 5 minutes on the stuff before you start peeing your pants.

And now you are at home, little man, seething, raging because in the back of your mind you know your plans to deal with this guy could never come to fruition because you are weak and feeble. Here is a video for you.

What country? My guess is British.
Reminds me of my OLD roomate, who thought he was God's gift to ESL, even though he was dyslexic, alcoholic, and probably a drug abuser. anyway, I helped to get him fired when he TRIED to punch me at work in front of the boss for having the audacity to give him a bill for the money he owed me after six months for a cable router and whatnot........ I repeat this story a lot because I love it.
With assholes, it's best to set them up to dig their own graves. In a situation like the OP, I'd make some coughing sound and then say loudly something to remind him what a jerkoff he's being. Nothing like pointing out the obvious. |
