Oh, yes, Elmo, I'm a gook, 100%. That's why I'm as white as any
Caucasian. Makes sense.

Are you seriously threatening me? I hope so, because I haven't
had a good laugh in a looooong time. I'll tell you what, yo-yo: I won't
take up your challenge simply because I don't have the time to waste on
the pathetic likes of you. Can't even respond intelligently, can you?
All you're capable of is immature tripe, which just proves my point that
you're probably nothing more than a little boy with a chip on his
shoulder, trying to take on and scare the whole world.
Nice try. I'm laughing at you, Elmo. Laughing. Anything more
you say will just make me laugh harder, and will just reinforce my
assesment of you. If you can come up with something intelligent, which I
doubt, I'll hear you out; but apart from that, don't bother me with your
miserable excuse for conversation. I must say your martial manners are
quite lacking.

"Fuckface"? Hmm, that's original (seems like the only thing you're
capable of saying, like a little child who's just discovered a new
swear-word). But coming from the likes of you, it's quite a compliment.

not to get off topic, but i had always thought that the term "gook"
originated during the Vietnam war, and that american soldiers used it to refer
to the jungle based Viet Cong.
Anyone who knows better, enlighten me.

Sure! the term "gooks" is used for people like you. Who would rather
read a philosophy book and contemplate life, rather than live it!

You FREAK!

live a very fulfilling life.

I was under the impression that it meant "people" in Vietnamese (anyone out
there who can verify this?) and that it eventually became another generic
racial slur.

Here's the history behind the word:
"Gook" is a pan-racial epithet first used in the Philipine-American war
(1899-1902) to refer to Filipino natives who had no mixture of European
"blood" -- a particularly despised category in the worldview of
European and American imperialists. Historically, this term had also
been used to refer to other "people of color" whose land were invaded
and occupied by Euro and/or American imperialists such as the Haitians,
Nicaraguans, Costa Ricans, etc. BUt since the Korean War, it was used
mainly by American soldiers to denigrate Asian people.

And now a word about "Elmo":
"ELMO" (EuroTrash Low-IQ Moron Outcast) is a slang used in some UserNet
circles to refer to a teenage kid usually of European racial background
with gender-identity problems who lacks the intellectual capacity to
count up to ten without looking at his fingers but has enough free time
and access to an On-Line Service to generate garbage and junk up any
UserGroup he happened to come across.

Makes sense in that sick America-centric/English-centric way...
A GI hears a Korean person say "Mi-gook", sure enough, they'll hear
ME, GOOK, think the stupid furiner is talking about themself, and thus
a racial slur is born...

Either that or:


Egotistical Loser Making Obnoxious Simpleton Egghead Statements


In other words, ELMOSES.


ELMOSES (see also loser) n. - a simple-minded, simple creature with
little or no life. Can usually be found hiding in the shelter of its
home, thriving on the radiation from its computer. A perfect example of
Murphy's Law and Why You Must Wear a Condom During Anal Sex Law. Can be
lethal if armed with a big mouth, but is usually rendered harmless if the
intended victim laughs at it and ignores it. Should not be taken
seriously. It is usually identified by the verbal vomit comments it
makes, and then running for shelter whenever challenged. Prescribed
measures in case of ELMOSES attack: ignore it, and let it go away when it
gets the message that it's victims are not paying any attention to it.
