You know what gets my panties in a bunch? ?
When assholes automatically assume that I cannot speak English and try to get my attention by speaking in Japanese (or some other sort of Asian language they think I speak).
Kiosk sales people: “Konichiwa! Look! Kore mite, onesan. Can I show you something cool?”
Me: “I speak English, you cunt. Or shall I say it in Arabic?”
Ridiculous men:“Konichiwa, baby. You look so kawaii.”
Me: “I am an American and speak English probably better than you. Dimwit.”
Man working at a bar & hustling me in Mexico: “Hey kirei chica! Konichiwa! Margarita? Roku margarita por the price of ichi.”
Me: “1. I'm an American. 2. You didn't even say that right.”
Oh my Lady Gaga! Seriously??
Please don't assume that I can't speak English.
I was born and raised in America. I went to an American school taught by American teachers.
I have assimilated to the American way. I even have an American name that is legally my FIRST— not middle– name.
I don't dress in crazy outfits like FOB girls. I don't even have crazy hair and make up like them FOB girls.
I was in Honors English all my life. I speak perfect English with no accent whatsoever.
So, if you want me to buy something highly overpriced, useless, and ridiculous, don't call out to me in your broken Japanese. If you want me to give you my number and give up my goodies, don't try to flirt with me with your heavily foreign accented broken Japanese.
Honestly, it doesn't impress me at all. In fact, it offends me.
And that, my friends, is what gets MY panties in a bunch.
One reply on “Konichiwa, onesan…”
I totally agree with you. You forgot military guys. I tell them, “ummmm. I’m an American citizen I don’t need a green card. Why don’t you try to look for a real FOB asian she’ll probably might want to use you to get her green card.” And the worst was when a military guy told my friend, “All asian girls want to sleep with white guys. Tell her I’ll sleep with her.” Seriously, omg!!!!! I like asian boys!!!!
