Got this in an email.....



How Korean are you?



1. Your mom keeps her rubberbands around the kitchen sink faucet handles



2. Your mom uses water and an old rag to clean everything



3. Your mom has a bag of frozen anchovies (meh-ruh-chee) in the freezer



4. Your parents have a free calendar hung on their wall from church or

the local Korean market.



5. Your mom randomly tells you what their friends' kids have done,

especially if they did something good for their parents. You feel like

they are comparing you to them..which they are.



6. A date night for your parents, is lying in the electronic heated

blanket with thick puffy faux fur korean blankets in the living room

watching Korean videos.



7. When going to the beach with your mom, she's covered from head to

toe with her 10-inch sun visor, her robotech sunglasses, lightweight

jackets and such. In fact, they will most likely drive to the beach,

look at the water, say "Cho-TAH!!!" and then drive back home after one

hour.



8. If your parents call you "Kah-She-Nah" or "Jah-Sheek" if you

haven't called them in over a week and then feel guilty about it



9. When you were in 1st grade, your parents used rice instead of

buying Elmer's glue



10. Your mom has a collection of empty kimchee jars for future use,

big rubber basins in the backyard for making kimchee, a gallon of

koh-choo-jang and a 20lb bag of rice. Your dad will even comment on

the koh-choo-jang or kim being really good b/c it's from korea but you

can't tell the difference.



11. You wash your dishes by hand (only using the dishwasher on special

occasions)



12. Your parents rarely show teeth or have big smiles in pictures



13. You get straight A's on your report card with one A- or B+ . Your

parents expect you to do better next time.



14. Getting you into an Ivy League school was your parents' greatest

mission when they moved to the US



15. When your mom cooks, she never measures anything. And when you

ask her how much you should put it in...she says "ah...you know. a

little bit here. a little there. just taste."



16. If someone walks into a room/house with shoes on, it makes you

highly uncomfortable and nervous.



17. Your parents are looking for a toothpick after they've eaten at a

restaurant. When they find one, they cover their mouths with one hand

while picking their teeth with the other.



18. Your parents have lived in the U.S. for over 20+ years, and they

still don't vote.



19. Your church parking lot has more Lexus, BMW, and Mercedes cars

than the local dealership



20. Your dad or mom planted something in your front yard, backyard,

wherever there's dirt - they'll plant and grow. Lettuce? Corn?

Something...



21. When you're around your parents, your tone changes and you speak

like a baby or little kid "Uhhhhh-MMMMMaaaaahhhhHHHHH!

Nah beh goo pahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!"



22. You or some female in your family will spend $150-$250 getting a

straight pah-mah to make your/their hair look "naturally" straight.



23. When you go to the beach for a bbq, camping or an amusement park,

your parents bring the 3 golden Ks - kimchee, kalbi, kimbab



24. Your parents have embarrassed you in public before by their

mannerisms (dad yelling too loud "Eun Jung AHHHH!!! YUH-GEE-WAH!!!",

parents swearing in broken English at another driver)



25. Your parents are part of some sort of social group. It usually

involves secret group money collecting/exchange.



26. Getting toilet paper, toothpaste, or any highly practical item is

an appropriate and wise prize during team games



27. When eating a grilled fish, your mom can spit out every "ggah shi"

no matter how many or how small!



28. Your mom always dresses up when going out of the house. At home,

she dresses like a homeless woman wearing your old

clothes/sweats and mismatching.



29. Your mom works more than full-time, cleans, cooks homemade meals,

sews, serves, is always go, go, go and worries so much that she nags

you about what you're going to do with your life. Your dad has never

cooked or washed dishes in the kitchen but man, when it's time to

grill that kalbi....he's all over that!



30. You communicate through your mom what you need to tell your dad

and vice-versa



31. Your dad is always on the couch after work, quietly reading the

Korean newspaper or watching the Korean news/videos.



32. The Korean newspaper is the 2nd bible to your parents.



33. Your mom knows a friend, who had a friend, who had a

friend....that something bad happened to therefore, you need to listen

to your parents and do as they tell you althought there is no logical

connection whatsoever to the story they just told you (usually that

"friend" is just a news article they read from the Korean newspaper)



34. Your dad would explode and yell with a passion about once every

few months or year. The rest of the time, he's quietly reading the

newspaper



35. Your parents never paid for napkins, ketchup, or sugar...they

would just stack up Mcdonald's, restaurants...etc.



36. When you were younger and at a restaurant with another korean

family, your parents would fight over the bill...usually the

dads...they start grabbing it out of the hand and/or try to pay and

the other one pulls him down going ..."ah yai..yai..yai...". sometimes

this back and forth process will take 15 min. - everyone else waiting

until the parents duke it out and pay.



37. Your parents always eat some sort of fruit for dessert...apples,

asian pear, oranges...and your mom peels the apple skin, the core and

slices it into "crescent" shape pieces.



38. you just love, love, love them korean faux fur blankets.



39. There is some piece of Korean furniture in the house somewhere

like a folding korean table or a black ebony chest with cranes all

over it.



40. Your mom favorite footwear was knee-highs



41. You've been called an "Ee-nuhm-ja-sheek" or "Kah-she-nah" by your

parents many times in your life



42. You are fed seaweed soup on your bday prepared by your uhmah (or

significant other)



43. When you or guests are leaving your parents' house, they wait for

you to get into the car and leave before they go back in the house.

Won't close the door, until you're gone. Doesn't matter if it's

freezing cold outside...they'll linger and wait until you're gone

first before they go back in the house.



44. Your mom has short-permed hair



45. Your dad used to smoke



46. Your parents have told you that you will die in the middle of the

night if you leave the fan or AC on ...

47. Your parents ALWAYS want you to stay home and not go out - read a

book instead, etc.



48. When you ask your parents if they need help, and they say no, but

they really mean "yes! don't ask, just do it".



49. Your parents eat kimchee with their spaghetti



50. One of your chores was to arrange all the shoes by the front door

I would have snatched that BBK off you if you offered it sooner. I've already ordered my G37S BBK, and my car will get them installed this Thursday or Friday.

I'm sure you can do something to make it fit.

You may want to try before you sell them.
