Since when is a person on a motorcycle a member of the Hell's Angels? That's some serious ignorance / prejudice there bro'.

But if they were wearing Hell's Angels paraphernalia, and looked threatening, would I walk up and tell them to stop spitting? Probably not.  That also applies even if he looked ethically Korean or Chinese.

But if he was a member of the vast (vast) majority of persons who use motorcycles as a means of transport, and are no more frightening than those who drive a Kia to work, then yeah I'd call them on it. Why wouldn't I? Should I refrain from it because of some strange fixation you have that people on motorbikes are scary?

Were you afraid of motorcycles as a child? Did you watch a scary movie were the bad guy owned a motorcycle?

Cool story bro.

I totally believe you'd walk up to a bunch of Banditos or Hell's Angels and tell them to keep it down and not spit.

Try it with the Satan's Helpers and you'd be lucky to escape alive.

Was at Vancouver airport last week and some ajoshie loudly coughed up his lung and spat it in the garbage can. I scolded him in Korean. Same with three Korean punk teenagers smoking and spitting on the street. I have to endure this behaviour here. I refuse to tolerate it in Canada.

Some people need to be house trained before they arrive in Canada - even as just tourists.

Leave your gross unhygienic customs at home.

And when the Air Canada flight crew tell you to sit down and fasten your seat belt, sit the &^%$ down and fasten your seat belt. If you get thrown through the cabin you're going to injure more than just yourself.

I have no problem with this, provided you do it to other Canadians who spit (and if you claim Canadians don't spit- horseshit). Go outside some scuzzy bar in Windsor and you'll see plenty of people puffing on an ExportA or Player's or whatever and hacking a loogie.

If you only do it to Koreans, you're just a bigot.

Got to agree with this point.

^ Unfortunately, you are agreeing with something absolutely no-one has stated. Steelrails / De Martino is notorious for statements like "if you are x, y or z then you're just a ____". It's the oldest and most dishonest debating technique in the book. Imply, suggest, hint and insinuate and argue against that - not what the poster has actually said.

No-one has stated what he is implying they stated - and you've opted to agree with him on that. :rolleyes:

What you wrote here kind of invalidates your post above.

What about beyond spitting? Do you walk around correcting all people of all backgrounds in Canada on various other wrongs you observe them doing or is it just spitting? If so, why just spitting?

Anyways, dude, everyone knows you're full of it when you say you tell anyone and everyone to not spit. No one buys that shit.

What's next? Are you going to tell us you never jack off because you get so much tail?

No matter what someone looks like, you'd better believe if people act disgusting in public in Canada somebody will yell at them. You might even say it's a fault in our culture, but when we see people breaking social norms about cleanliness we get right up in their faces.

So because he tells one guy not to spit he has to make it his life's work and go out seeking each and every spitter to dress them down or he's a racist?

Talk about being full of shit. :rolleyes:

It is if you only ever correct Koreans/Asians. Singling one group of people out for doing something bad but refusing to give anyone else grief over it is pretty much the definition of prejudice.

If other people do it and you don't tell them not too, that's just you being a bigot and/or a coward.

Biggest gripe is just the erratic spitting and eating like a pig at a trough in restaurants.  The latter is just a cultural difference and something i just have to tolerate, the first is just nasty anyway you slice it.

At the moment, the main thing that pisses me off is how random ajosshi get in my face and severely look me up and down; judging my worth by what I have on and how fit I look.  Other Koreans might look at you, which is fine, everyone does it, but ajosshi just seem a little bit too entitled.

In response this this, I've just been doing the same back to them. Quite often they seem a little shocked at my response, which suggests that they don't even have the self-realisation that they're acting like a tw@t as this is just normal here.

I feel like Koreans are very stomp-y and pace a lot. Even at hotels I can hear the person above me stomping until 2 am.
