so just for kicks.
1. you say "no doubt"
only a fool (and an arrogant one at that [oh the hypocracy] ) would be able to comment on an anecdote with "No Doubt"
you do not know the facts of the situation, therefore, ergo, there is doubt.
unless you were there yourself, you cannot comment on what people were thinking in an event you know nothing about.
2. you say "Gaijin"
gaijin is a sometimes offensive (depends on context, please dont debate) term used at white people, it may technically mean anyone foreign to japan but is pretty much used exclusively to describe white people, someone who is black will seldom be called gaijin.
as you yourself are not white, perhaps someone (and that'l be me) should point out that it is not your place to use words that can be used to describe someones race if you are not of that same race. (this includes but is not limited to the words honky, cracka and whitey)
thats why 50 gets away with saying Nger this Nger that, and chris martin from coldplay doesn't.
(this is international manners)
3. you asume they were laughing at my "ignorance of Japanese custom and courtesey"
I understand Japanese culture and custom a little bit more than you.
whats more i have an understanding of the 'deeper meaning' behind them which is always more important than the custom itself, and you would have trouble understanding from a website, which is (I assume) your only point of reference on japanese culture and custom.
4. ignorance in "normal manners"
so now you are bringing about a personal attack, which you cannot justify or validate. i know how to carry myself in realms of society (on an international level) that you don't even know exist. Boy.
5
the stereotype that we westerners have in Japan,
I dont know what kind of Pr*cks you hang out with,
but anyone who judges anything based on a "stereotype" is a person that is beneath me. will be treated as such, and deserve it.
In conclusion
shh

I have no idea why I respond to you any more. . .
2) 'Gaijin' is a pretty common term, and although not tecnhnically politcally correct I wouldn't go as far to say it's racist or rant about it to the extent you have. It's certainly not as offensive as you make it out to be. 3) Why do you assume you know the culture better than he does? If you're making such social gaffs then I'd personally say that you don't. 5) You really don't make yourself sound like an adult, especially when you tell people to 'shh' when you disagree with them.
