The Crazy Rants of Samantha BurnsYa, Well, We're Not Too Fond Of You Either
So, nyah!
Where Are My Socks? informed me of this article about Canadians being ostracized from a Seoul organisation that claims to promote cultural understanding.
Duh, h'okay then.
Although the group prides itself on the notion of bringing "together all nationalities to discuss world issues and break down cultural barriers and prejudices", it stipulates "no Canadians please".
Talk about a perfect example of irony.
When contacted further, the group organiser added,
"The thing is, CANADIANS ARE SCUM! They are self-loving, welfare supporting, over taxing, work ethic hating scum!!!"And, proud of it, beeatch!
Lol.
I don't know. I got a feeling it has to do with all our educated university graduates heading over there to teach English to those who want to get ahead in life.
Seriously, we have tons of Canucks going to Asian countries, particularly Korea, to teach English. I even considered it myself at one point.
Perhaps there's a little bit of jealousy over there about us taking over some of their teaching jobs and trying to assist those who want to acquire a universal language.
I'm only guessing.
It could also be because we are a part of the first world, and they hate us for our freedom. But, I can't generalise, I suppose.
It's just one ignorant group.
