Today's weather is pickled isn't it?

You must take a few minutes to watch this hilarious video, sent to me by a friend in my Master's program. It thoughtfully examines how to teach Korean students English swear words (warning though: it is not for the easily offended by foul language). It is truly awesome. (Also, you might want to watch in full screen to get the full effect, plus the subtitles are easier to read that way...)

  1. oh my god this hilarious. I think my favorite part is when he explained how weird "a%#hole" is because in Korea, even children think it's childish. and then at the end! "now, don't ever use these words. if a foreigner says them, just listen and think, 'hmm, what's this bastard saying?'" hahahahaha.

  2. This is hysterical---more so because of the matter-of-fact serious professorial tone of the lecturer! If I'm ever needing a pick-me-up----I think I'll listen again!! :)

  4. My favorite part is when he said, "From this point on little children and pregnant woman should not watch." Awesome!
