for fuck's sake

whilst planning to set up a collaborative partnership

with a german-based internship-job matchmaking - moi providing interview / c.v coaching tips [as if i'm not busy enough with the biz], the gerry in question mentioned the followin on his email, see emphasis:

"...are you actually of chinese ancestory [sic]? then you could also offer that training for student's willin to intern in china..."

intelligently-insulted i am, by that annoyin broad presumption. not that i'm being lumped together with the mighty yellow [jaundiced? hahahaha] race. but rather, the utterly oxymoronic statement.

it's akin to asking a yorkshireman, or someone from the coastal parts of scotland; or even an orcadian or a shetlander - or even an ukrainian or a russki, oh i could go on - to enlighten me on working with em scandi's. just because it so happen that all descended from em ferocious pillaging plunderin viking's.

that's a complete daft request, innit? if not mad?

well, said gerry is not the first to tar me [or each and every ethnic chink wee islander for that matter] with the same "ye chink's think and act alike 'cos you all look the same; so you *cannot* possibly proclaim english as *yer* mother tongue - duh?!" brush. well, with the exception of the lowest of the lowest common peasantry denominators whose grandparent's were indeed from china.

try explainin that a gap of between 100 and some 600 yonk's between me and em chink's from china [and from just anywhere else on this planet] simply means we ain't *culturally* alike. and that our brain's are wired so differently that we don't even understand one another. i can quote an instance whereby some rural folk's from the middle kingdom [note sarcasm] are still totally clueless about sanitation.

and em peopRe's LepubRik types have no qualms about cheating or robbing their *own* kind - in spite of the "us are one happy massive mighty yellow [jaundiced? hahahaha] race so we must stick together" tag. oh and don't get me started about their utter complete lack of common sense and courtesy, ie: jumping queue's, pushing and shoving, spittin in public, nose-pickin in public, etc blah etc. it's not due to their recent commie brainwashing, mind. but rather there ain't any chinese equivalent of the words common, sense and courtesy.

"errr, you slit-eyed chinese people are all the same anyway. thievin bastards/daylight robber's. 'nuff said."

well, whomever the amoebae ought not be pissed if i were to retort with an equally oxymoronic statement:

"yeah, you westerner's all look the same 'cos you's have blond hair and blue eyes, innit? so you all must be of teutonic stock - ie: german, kinda related to hitler - YIKES!".

i mean, i'm merely stating the obvious.
