That comes from Dave’s ESL Cafe and I’m 96% sure it’s a guy just trolling. There’s been a lot of threads like that lately. My “favorite” was the guy bitching because Home Plus wanted him to pay extra for a plastic bag.

So today I was shopping at the grocery store, and as I was leaving I asked for a shopping bag to help carry my groceries in. Now maybe I just didn’t realize it before, but after I paid the cashier I asked for a white plastic bag to carry my groceries out with. After I asked she asked for more money – I thought maybe she had forgotten to ring something up that I got. It never occurred to me that she was charging me for THE BAG. One regular plastic bag. ARE YOU KIDDING ME KOREA? I talked to a Korean friend about this and he said it was to save the environment. BAHAHAHAHA what a scam! So I guess since there aren’t h a r d l y ANY trashcans around ANYWHERE that I see in public areas the thinking is that people with just take their trash with them instead of throwing in on the ground? ARE YOU KIDDING ME KOREA? Most areas that I have visited in Korea are LITTERED with garbage! HELLO! I wonder how long they have been thinking this naive reasoning will work? Obviously, it doesn’t. Save the environment… what a freaking joke. WAKE UP KOREA!

The guy does sound like a bit of a dick, but then… so do you.
Just because the cunts in America would bleed you dry for this ‘accident’ doesn’t mean that it’s okay.
Moreover, this cocksucker asking for 10mils is clearly a money-grabbing glans. Who in their right mind would think an ‘accident’ like that warrants such retribution?
I hope that clown goes back to the gym, slips in the shower, smashes his skull open, and DIES.
Damn. I was really hoping the story was true.

Adams-awry – an asinine alliterative ass
An asinine ass? Good one… I guess the only way to respond is in kind:
You moronic moron.
Adams-awry, I appreciate your moral struggle, and support you in your effort to struggle harder next time.
Meanwhile, I’ll try to go senile more slowly. Or perhaps I’m suffering from Mad Cow Disease, what with all that American beef I’ve been eating.

Thanks, and yes, your response was quite fitting–your description of me was as moronic as my description of you was alliterative.
Oh, and maybe I’m sorry about the “asinine ass” comment. I wrote that after
a fewseveral drinks, and at the time, I thought that it was you whom I despised. Now, though, I can’t remember if it was you or Arghaeri (sic). As I’m still not sure whom it is I hate, or perhaps it’s both?, I can’t say for sure if I’m sorry. Anyway, don’t take too much offense, we’re both just anonymous people on the internet. Have a nice weekend.Note to self – close browser before going drinking so that it’s not facing you when you get home.
triple-post. cha-ching.
