Now, I’m wondering if the same bitch had a problem with registering voters in Slavic or Scandinavian communities, would this would have been such a big deal? C’mon, names like Blagojevich? Bjorklund? Lolmaught? Can I buy a fucking vowel please?
I have to admit, my name isn’t the easiest fucking thing to spell in the world but my parents did not make the same mistake after moving me and themselves to America. When they fucked here and created my brother, they simply named him “Ted.” Not even Theodore or Teddy. They just named him “Ted” on his birth certificate because he’s American, and not some pretentious Asian name that confuses the shit out of people. Or maybe they like to keep shit simple. My sister’s name is Nam. They’re fans of three letter words.
ED NOTES: Hey Taeil, you write like a FOB. In other news, how about when Koreans come here and they convert their lovely daughter’s Yoo Jin name to Eugene? Then they heard that’s a male nerd name so they go, “Oh, how about Eugenia?” Yeah, great idea. Why don’t you name your other daughter Marvinia or Erkelia?
Also, how about this Canadian chick who doesn’t really look Asian explaining to people the rules of yellowism? I can’t tell if she’s kidding or not. She says…
1. The phrase “lets get Chinese” instead of “Chinese food” is racsist/offensive.
2. making “swinty eyes” or pulling your eyes up to look asian is racsist.
3. singing” chinese,japanese,dirtty knees,look at these…” is extremely racsist.

That Canadian coont is only half asian & therefore must only be half-offended. Whasians really are a strange concoction of peoples.
Your bro’s name should’ve been named “Viet” since your sister’s name is “Nam” [insert bad joke sound effect] but your probs Korean because all my Korean friends’ last names are “Kim” (CHIIII)
The name on my birth certificate is really real because my grandpa’s name was “Valeriano” (He was Spanish or something weird) & because my mom was a fan of Valerie Bertinelli. (WHY?!) 80’s born for sure.

I thought you were gonna be from Cote D’Oivre draped in kente cloth or some shit, writing about how African immigrants hate american black folks. But Taeil, what kinda Korean name is that? Is Afeni Shakur your real mom?

Man, she fucked up saying that shit in Austin. over in Houston nobody would’ve cared, but here in liberal-ass Austin they’re crucifying her on the news.

Betty Brown is almost ignorant enough to write for SC! Almost, because she didn’t slur “fags” or “retards.” Almost there!

Surely being called ‘nam’ in America must attract some shit, like its a joke some village survivors planted in the US.
Some asian guys go discreet, trying to keep under the radar – Chris is a popular name. Chris who? I ask. Chris Martin of Coldplay?? Do Koreans think that’s what we’re like?? They’ll be fitting them out with Sgt Pepper military jackets soon.
Is it the same idea of the Caribbean families naming their sons ‘Winston’ in the 50s.

Any of those names are fine with me. It’s puke worthy yuppie names white people name their little fuck trophies these days that piss me off.

The problem was that there are two different spellings for Chinese. It’s called phonetic translations. They were filling out different forms with different names. Maybe you guys should research it before you start writing. Her statement was completely justified. For instance “Mao Tse-tung” is also spelled “Máo Zéd?ng.” Both are correct. Koreans will also spell their names “Jang” and “Chang.”

im pretty sure that girl is serious. she’s also one of those “i’m so weird n random LOLz!!” type girls.
and saying “let’s get Chinese” is not racist at all. What the hell does she think that’s implying? “Let’s go become Chinese?” “Let’s go get some Chinese fags and beat the shit outta them?”
