Uhh, well this asian/american isn't so small. I must be a fluke or something.

It's probably the fatty american diet. Death to round-eyes!!!

What I don't get is folks with AzN Pride who act all thug and ghetto wearing FUBU.

I've got Korean parents, but I'm an American. But that doesn't mean that I shun parts of my ancestry and heritage. I do the boom-skaka-laka type of ceremonial things, ethnic stuff like that occasionally.

Once again, Azn pride is retarded when you are trying to be ghettofabulous.

Bunch of tools...

Russia and India are part of Asia if you have forgotten.

I've got 'yellow' skin and crazy eyes but that doesn't mean I'm Chinese. For the 1,000,000th time, I am not Chinese! Or Japanese. I'm American.

I think of myself as an American too, but most white people call me Chinese, so..... I must be Chinese then!

reduce your sig, if i noticed it a mod certainly will. it must be 175x350 and 15k or smaller

this isnt an asian pride thing, i see it alot and it gets annoying. I was just wondering if any asians were into PB.
Most of the ones i know locally arent into any tpe of extreme sports.

I really hate when your asian, you automatically become chinese. wtf.

Can't be a fluke cause I'm not small either. I'm usually the bunker people try to hide behind.

FLIP-SIDE!

I'm chinese and people think I look korean... Do I not fit into the "every asian is chinese" thing!?!? It bugs me...

[MantisMag]

yeah me too foo. i've been asked if i was korean, by a korean. i've been asked if i was vietnamese, fillipino, even spanish one time by a vietnamese guy . anything but chinese or japanese. hellooooooo. why don't you try picking the biggest damn country? it's like people are afraid it's not PC to pick the biggest countries. wouldn't want to stereotype all asians as being from those two countries.

my family is a stereotype though. my paternal grandfather owned a restaurant. my maternal grandfather was a partner in a laundry. all of them except my paternal grandmother were stowaways. her parents were stowaways and gave birth to her immediately after landing. did i mention my last name is lee? you can call me bruce. or brandon. or more recently jet.

[joeyjoe367]

Hehe, my uncle owns a laundry place too If that's not steriotypical enough for you, he also employs mexicans.

My mother also owns her own business. She does custom embroidery and my grandmother does professional alterations and stuff.

My dad works for boeing.

Foo, I deff. could mistake you for Korean.

btw, I'm korean also.

This friend of mine who came to America when he was three keeps telling me that I'm too white washed and not Korean enough.

I was born and raised in America, what a tool. He plays paintball though, but he sucks.

Both my parents work for the USPS. I can't even count how many Koreans I know that work for the USPS.

some peeps getting a little upset.......

there seems to be pretty much a group stereotype of employment of asians; your parents/grandparents most likely owned some kind of service business ie. laundry, food, grocery,etc. or they were fortunate enough to attend school in the homeland and are skilled professionals. heck i'll admit my family is old skool in that respect, both my parents had rice fields in the homeland, came to america worked in stereotypical jobs restaurant, laundry, garment factory. but you know what, in the end it doesn't really matter what ethnic background you are from because every immigrant started in a similar way. alot of them have had families, bought homes, put kids through college and own their own business.

Amen Sister! Far as I know my Irish and German ancestors started the same darn way! Chicken Farmers and such! It's a unifying experience that makes us all Americans!

Do you folks want me to move this over to meet and greet for you?
