Today, I was with my grandma waiting in a line. She only speaks Chinese and there was a black man in front of us talking his phone. My grandma tells me that the black man's really loud and annoying. The man finishes and turns and said fluently in Chinese, "What's wrong with loud black men?" FML

You know it sounds like Mr. Black man was more annoyed by the fact that granma specifically mentioned that he was black. My grandma doesnt speak English either and she would have said the exact same thing. Has anyone seen that "Professor Badass" picture that floats around the net? Thats the picture I have in my mind for this guy.

#10, you need to get out more. Chinese is actually a huge advantage when getting jobs right now. Also, just because people are educated, it doesnt' mean they aren't obnoxious. In fact, I find that more educated people are more obnoxious.... I don't think this story isn BS. Once i was walking in SF and a little black kid came up to me and started speaking mandarin to me. He was enrolled in Chinese school.

What about all the racist black people that live in this country their whole lives and still don't acknowledge that white people have now business here. Look at the news do you see gangs of white people randomly killing blacks and stealing from them

being chinese, we only refer to our language as "mandarin" or "cantonese" hardly ever "chinese".. so.. from what it looks like this is made up.

#17 - that's complete BS. I say I speak Chinese because very few people actually know that there are so many dialects in China, and that if I do say which one that it's going to be relevant because they're not going to know which region the dialect comes from. When writing, I'd even say I study Zhongwen as opposed to Putonghua.

#17, I'm asian, I say "chinese" all the time cause who's gonna know the difference between "mandarin" or "cantonese"? plus my european friend majors in japanese and he is very fluent. the asian language is beneficial if you wish to go into the business field.
