koreans having their tongues lopped off to speak better engrish
Because of slavery many African Americans feel robbed of their African heritage and culture. So there has been this push to name their children authetic African names, although nowadays black folks seem to just be making names up.
Far be it for us to buy or check out an actual African name book from the library and give our children a real African name.
No we will just sound one out phonically like LaQwasha and claim no harm no foul.
Well I have noticed that Asians seem to have the polar opposite perspective on cultural retentions than black folks.
Half the Asians I met in college couldn't speak 4 words of English but they were all named Mary, Jim and John.
I am talking straight off the boat Asians.
No shame about it.
They didn't come here with Li, Kong, or Sung Kim, for better or worse they left all that back on the boat.
I used to think, what happened to names like Chung Li or Ying Yu Pow? How come you are sitting in China, surrounded by 1 billion Chinese and you name your kid Mary.
Then I discovered through a friend of mine that has what can only be described as a fetish for Asian women that their real name probably is Fang Su Kung. They just adopt an American sounding name when they're coming over here to study or to get a job.
Ahhhh.
When in Rome I guess.
Now I am reading about how Koreans are having cosmetic surgery to have a centimeter of their tongues lopped off on the end to help them speak English better.
That my friend is called doing whatever it takes to be competitive.
Korean parents are taking their children in to have their operations done. One lady had it done to her six-year-old son.
They say but lopping off the end of the tongue it makes the tongue more "flexible" and will rid him of his Korean accent when speaking English.
No word yet on what it does to his Korean.
"English is now becoming a means of survival," said Cha Kyoung-ae , a professor who teaches English at a local university. "Entering a college, getting jobs and getting promoted -- many things hinge heavily on your mastery of English.
And that is when I realized that there is more to the foreigners taking all of our jobs and why are all the manufacturing jobs moving overseas than we like to deal with.
Autoworker makes $27.00 an hour making sure four screws go into one automobile part.
No special skills necessary. A monkey could do it. Yet he is getting paid $27.00 an hour with full health benefits.
And he will strike in a second if you even suggest that he isn't worth every dime of that $27.00 an hour.
But is he worth it? What exactly is he doing that justifies his $27.00 an hour?
Would you pay the guy that bags your groceries $27.00 an hour?
No?
Why not?
Because you can grab anyone off the streets to put food into a brown paper bag, right?
Same fucking idea.
The reason jobs are going overseas is because little Ping Ki Li is willing to do the same job you are doing for less money.
But that's not fair you say because they have a lower standard of living than us right?
I agree, they do have a lower standard of living but whoever said that you should be able to make a decent living off a job that we could train pigeons to do?
No one gets a job at Target stocking shelves expecting to get paid a wage high enough to retire in 10 years.
Those are suppose to be jobs that you do while you are young and don't have any responsibilities but to buy clothes and beer.
Those shouldn't be "raise your four kids and make house payment" jobs.
Show me a person afraid that a computer is going to come in and take his job I will show you someone that is doing some pretty remedial shit.
Doctors and lawyers aren't complaining about robots coming in and taking their jobs.
People who make a living doing remedial shit like counting how many cases of soda get loaded on a palette fear robots taking their jobs.
As they should.
So besides C3-PO you also have Wang Chung looking over your shoulder. And he will not only change his name to take your job but will have his body deformed just to sound like you too.
