I think 'kimbergimps' is better.

Mermaids are sexy... the dudes participating in the K-national, innertube recycling program aren't. Wink

There were no (other)beggars in his mother's basement. Thus the shock at seeing one in the great big world he has ventured out into.

Come now, T-J. While I agree that Korea seems to get a fair amount of sheltered kids coming to teach English, are you trying to tell me that the sight of a guy crawling on his hands and knees wearing rubber pants and pushing a sound-system on wheels is a common occurence elsewhere in the world?

Yea, your right. If it were common you would see Eddy Murphy doing it in a movie from the eighties.

How silly of me. You win again.
