HA! Even they can't tell the difference ...

The next time you ask an Asian person if they are a certain nationality, and they respond offended because they are Korean or Japanese instead of Chinese as you thought, tell the to go fuck themselves.

They can't even tell the difference.

Yesterday, I was at Everland, a cool version of Disneyland that unlike the evil mouse factory sells beer all over the park, has multiple smoking sections and sells food at a reasonable price.

There with my sixth grade students on a field trip we noticed a group of Asian people not speaking Korean.

My students said, "They're Japanese."

Later one of my co-workers tried to speak Korean with the group, thinking they were Koreans in a group.

Then one of my other co-workers said they are Chinese people.

The Answer:

HONG KONG.

Now the teacher who said Chinese was close, but if you ever tell a person from Hong Kong they are Chinese, they will be severely pissed with you.

However, I couldn't help enjoy Asians mistaking other Asian's country of origin.

Even they think they all look the same.

You're being too hard on them. You try going around life squinting your eyes all the time...it's got to be hard to tell things apart.
