Do you know blah blah blah Korean athlete in the US? For one, I don't know any athletes in the US. For two, why do you care? Do you really find them to be a reflection of yourself? The nationalistic undertones here really turn me off. Maybe I should just start saying "yeah, he sucks."

Do you really find them to be a reflection of yourself? The nationalistic undertones here really turn me off. Maybe I should just start saying "yeah, he sucks."The "do you know XYZ" is actually quite a common one for many non-American people. Even the most ignorant Korean probably knows of 100s of American celebrities. The average American may be able to name one or two Koreans. South Africans are also pretty bad at this. "Did you know XYZ is from South Africa?"Obviously Americans don't need to do this, as their culture is pretty ubiquitous in this day and age. I've even heard Canadians throw that out the ol... "Actually ABC is Canadian"
I think most of you guys know the "Do you like broccoli/ice cream song" It's basically a song that starts out with two foods "do you like..." and then mixes them "do you like broccoli ice cream" for instance. So I recently started teaching first graders and a few kids say that they really like foods that they shouldn't like. Even the damn video says "yucky" but they still like popcorn pizza or tomato pancakes. It doesn't make sense to me! A few kids always say "mashketa" and stuff. I mean maybe I can understand popcorn pizza since Koreans definitely **** pizza up--sweet potato pizza ahemm--but stuff like spaghetti yogurt? No way.What other things that Koreans do irks you guys?
Mustard doesn't belong on the pizza. Just for dipping the pizza.Also Pizza School etc are great and should be praised. Also mustard belongs on the beat.

No way.What other things that Koreans do irks you guys?1) They're kids. Kids do kid stuff. They aren't rational adults who give mature answers to this. I'm mystified so many NETs here, who each think they're geniuses and great at their job, are too dumb to realize this. They're kids. Of course they're not supposed to make sense. The day kids make sense is the day the world is no longer a fun place.2) Anyone who thinks sweet potato pizza is "wrong" and thinks a "real" pizza is what they get from some pizza place back home is an idiot. It's no more wrong than pineapple, bbq chicken pizza, a Mexican pizza, and all the other pizzas we get back home. I also love how the people who think shrimp or squid is "inauthentic" or an abomination when in fact you're more likely to find those on real Italian pizza than frickin Canadian bacon. 3) You'd be surprised what tastes good even though it sounds odd. Perhaps the most famous is the Wendy's Frosty and french fries but there are loads out there. Be open minded.

Furthermore, yes they are kids. But they are capable of rational thought and I only expect rational thought from my students. They are aware that broccoli ice cream is irrational but still incorrectly claim that they like it. This sort of jest, for I am assuming that it is in jest they do this, has no place in our great educational systems and should be swiftly rooted out.

Speaking of tasty food abominations, I could really go for some deep fried cali rolls slathered with sriracha mayo. That sounds like some delicious trash. I've never had deep fried cali rolls, before. Is that a thing?
