Sexism hiding behind a racist guise! NSFW may give middle aged men massive erections.

YOLO!!!!

MBC totes did this racist shit about foreigners banging Korean women.

Well fuck me! I need to get me a KTX ticket straight to sex town (aka Hongdae) and use my massive ROD as a fishing line to attract SEX HOLES.

Christ. If anyone hasn’t seen the video here it is [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsNHYYrvMrk]. It’s debased, senseless racist and sexist shit. It appeals to the sort of bottom feeder that has probably rewatched the “documentary” on MBC catch up ten times and feeked his way all up into a Kleenex before crying himself to sleep in a room-salon.

Let it be said: This bollocks does not represent my experience with Koreans. Koreans are bang on.

But that being said, this country is fucking racist. AIDS tests for the affluent college grads that come here in droves? But not for the hordes of Korean men that go to the Philippines yearly to get their mickeys wet? Mandatory drug tests? But only for dem’ forunerz?

You’re having a fucking bubble, mate. It’s 2012 nah?

Whatevs, I’ll be the first to say that the minority of idiots seem to influence insitutions and diplomacy EVERYWHERE. When I truly remember Korea, I’ll always remember the woman who spoon fed me dehjigookbap or the guy who spoon fed me soju trying to see if I was man enough (I was). Looking back, having seen the MBC docu, I guess they were well game, nah?

Nah. The really telling thing about the documentary, for me at least, is that Korean women are portrayed as victims. And there’s the crux of the issue, really. In Korea, more or less, women are second class citizens. 

Sure, you can go to college babe. Yeah, be an engineer. That is so cute! But as soon as you reach 25-26 you better be fucking married.

Sure babe, I respect you. But if you smoke in public I will fucking publicly disparage you!

Of course all this is changing and you don’t have to get too retrospective to find many parallels in Irish society. But, coming back to the MBC shitfest, there seems to be this train of thought that women couldn’t possibly be in charge of their own lives (vaginas).

That slut is just dating a waygook because she doesn’t have what it takes to get a Korean man* (* ten thousand spare dollars for plastic surgery is what it takes).

That slut is a foreigner’s whore.

That slut is a slut slut slut slut slut.

The MBC “report” doesn’t go so far as to call women sluts, but certainly undermines their intelligence by painting them as victims of foreigners. As if I would victimise anyone! I might leave you two slices short of a full loaf, but that’s better left unsaid…

Why wouldn’t a Korean woman go out with a foreigner? You learn about a new culture (if you call mindless consumerism a culture…), you hang out with someone who respects you as a person and you will have fun (I hope). And you won’t have to marry them.

Korean men can all provide this as well and I’m sure that just as outraged as the waygooks who are sitting outside MBC HQ this weekend (surely they should be going to Hongdae with a pack of Durex?) are many Korean people who don’t like this sort of bollocks misrepresenting them on a global scale.

But Korea genuinely has got to get to grips with it’s own inherent racism and misogyny. And I’m sure plenty of Hangooks recognize this too, I’d hate to come across as preachy.

I don’t really mind being the subject of racist media scrutiny, but it’s fookin’ sick to see women consistently be the subject of abuse/patronisation for simply having/using their vaginas. Women can make their own decisions brosefz, just because it isn’t the decision you might like doesn’t make it any less legitimate.

It’s not unique to Korea. Older men spending their waking hours obsessing over what younger women do with their vaginas is a global occurrence. And it’s fucking creepy. There are countless priests, imams and politicians I want to headbutt into a fucking nebula. Fear’s a dangerous thing.

Whatevz. MBC’s report is no different that the Daily Mail’s annual reporting of outrageous teens having multiple orgasms on speed in Ayia Napa. The former may be tinted with racist undertones, but the real butt of the joke is the women all this sexist shit misrepresents.

I SENT PANT KNENNI AN EMAIL HOLE

I don’t usually exceed myself but after:

Hello Patrick,

2011 Round Up

Lads, 2011. What a year. Mainly a shit one but a year all the same. It was a tipping point for me in many ways, teaching me a few lessons that I’d be a full retard to ignore.

The first part of 2011 was spent in London living in an expensive house with intermittent paycheques which usually were devoured in pint sized formats, while also hawking myself around to various self important people best described as irredeemable cunts. The struggle of scraping together the price of a tube to head to some post-war East London kip, up past a staircase covered in fixie-bikes and into a moustachioed cretin who informs you ‘we’re just looking to see who is out there’ before thanking you for wasting your time… That wasn’t the highlight of my year to say the least.

However I was fortunate enough to get some lucrative freelance opportunities with nice people doing, admittedly, banal work for monolithic corporations. Both the positive experiences and negative experiences reached a head in the summer when I decided graphic design wasn’t for me. Or rather graphic design in London with it’s fetid mix of pretension, greed and self-importance wasn’t for me. 

I decided to move to South Korea to become an English teacher. That decision closed one chapter and opened up a new chapter, one that is thankfully much better and rewarding. 

That said, during the dark brooding times in London there were some mad fucking laughs to be had. Mad props to all my brothers and sisters back in Ireland and England, mad luv 4 ya.I went to Iceland (in hindsight I should have gone alone…) and saw a country I had always wanted to see. Didn’t get the conditions for the Northern Lights but did see some rugged countryside, massive waterfalls and hot Scandinavian women everywhere. Christ, even the big ones who look like they’d do you serious damage were kind of attractive.

I also went on a(n) European Odyssey, with mad intentions of travelling down from Berlin to Rome and flying back to London after two weeks of fun. I ended up overstaying in Berlin (what a fucking city) and going to Prague (nice as well) before meeting a buddy in Wurzburg where I decided, fuck it, back to Berlin. Which was better the second time around than the first. What a place, can’t recommend it highly enough. 

I learned some lessons. Gather round children. You shouldn’t do something that makes you feel ill (unless it’s boozing every fucking weekend, that’s just fine). You should also be honest with people close to you, saying goodbye early saves you roaring FUCK OFF on the Holloway road months later.

2011 had other lessons to be learned. I can’t be the only one that had all their suspicions about the devious and despicable nature of our leaders confirmed in 2011. Jesus! What a farce! The economic meltdown caused by the super rich was passed onto the working stiff through cut and cut and austerity measure after austerity measure. Even more painful than listening to how the elite were shitting over everyone else was the rhetoric they used to justify it. ‘We’re all in it together.’

The situation in Ireland was as bad. An early election came with all sorts of grand promises and gestures that were largely absolute bollocks and didn’t stop the hurt so many people are feeling. 

Across the pond, the new beacon of hope Obama turned out to be a complete rehab who backed down on all of his major policies. He took the biscuit with introducing laws that allow the military to prosecute American citizens without trials. He gave leave for the content industry to censor the internet. Pure sound! 

Again across the water back in the UK it MI5 (or is it MI6?) were taking random brown people and subjecting them to all sorts of horrors, before telling them to fuck off back into normal life without a hint of apology. 

Wikileaks blew the lid off a load of secret files and subsequently Julian Assange was accused of rape by a country that by all accounts usually ignores rape (again, pure sound). Bradley Manning is rotting away in some cell somewhere for his actions (which he should have seen coming). The Guardian fumbled the handling of Wikileaks entirely, publishing secret documents that endangered people and then blaming Wikileaks for what The Guardian decided to publish itself. An atrocious newspaper anyway, only good for the crossword.

The phone hacking scandal was another absolute shit fest that showed the rotten nature of Rupert Murdoch’s empire for real. 

Then there was the Arab Spring and the uprisings there. They finally got Gaddafi (after securing the oil of course) and Syria is still shooting their own people. 

London erupted in violence due to the shades shooting Mark Duggan dead. Police treatment of prisoners and people in general was nicely overshadowed by roaming gangs of delinquents burning down shops and knacking bags of rice from Tesco. Just as retarded were the sentences dished out afterwards, ruining the lives of young people up and down the UK. If I was sixteen and had the opportunity to kick in a window and rob a pair of Air Max I’d have done it. Fuck it, I’d do it now.

The Occupy movement was another great arena in which the field overseers showed what a pack of cunts they were, arresting people who protested against the massive austerity cuts due to a crisis that was caused by reckless banking.

And Kim Jong Il died of a heart attack, leaving the way for his son to come into power over a heartless kleptocracy that promises to rain a ‘sea of fire’ on South Korea. That’s a story for 2012 though.

Truly the writing is on the wall, and after 2011 there can’t be too many people who still don’t see it. 

Here’s to 2012, surely to be as harrowing as 2011.

(and I didn’t even mention global warming)

Get Edna Kenny to Read My Emails

Last couple of years I’ve been looking at www.irishtimes.com and seeing the shtate of the country along with loads of pictures of really ugly people. David Cameron looks like a condom. Angela Merkel looks like she should be working part time in Supervalu bakery and taking the Cope bus home. Sarkozy looks like a rapist. One small mercy is that Brian Cowen and Mary Hearney aren’t creeping around anymore, clutching each other in some distant cave and feeding each other cheesy fries in a grotesque ludic suicide pact rife with sexual innuendo and cholesterol. 

I reckon that if these spastics worked for a month in Dunnes to support themselves then they’d take a different stance on their austerity measures and patronising rhetoric. So I sent Edna Kenny an email or two, trying to get him to forward the concept at G30 or whatever.

Hello, 

I wish to acknowledge receipt of your email of 6 November, 2011 which will
be brought to the Taoiseach’s attention as soon as possible.


Yours sincerely,


Patricia Collins
Assistant Private Secretary to the Taoiseach
