Odds and Ends
Jane, webmistress (just like saying that word) of Seoul Scene, has posted a new video of life in Korea: “The Bondaegi Challege.” Click on the link on the left side of her main page to view the video. Jane and her intrepid cameraman Hadyn (along with yours truly…who was more in the way than anything else) scoured the streets of Itaewon recently to find people to sample steamed slikworm larvae from a can. Hey, who is that dashing young man giving the first interview?
Kevin over at Incestuous Amplifications has reached the end of his shopping rope in this rant about nosy people that have nothing better to do than jam their face into my shopping cart to see what the fat, white guy could possibly have in there. Ooooo….What do monkey’s eat? I’m very happy that he wrote it because people simply doesn’t notice it and they get mad at me for overreacting when I publicly humiliate the fools who do it. I agree with Kevin’s reactions and counter-measures. I have done all of them…except the sign. Instead of a sign, I just shout it. And for those of you that think I/we are being oversensitive and that it shouldn’t bother us, let me tell you that it didn’t bother me for about the first four years. However, it happens every single time that I go grocery shopping anywhere, and quite frankly, after 15 years, I grow weary of it…especially from the most culturally advanced, friendliest, respectful, caring, understanding, uri country’s citizens.
And now for something completely useless…The Subservient Chicken!
