hijab, turban, idgaf. if i went to another country, i would probably speak their languege because it's just common fucking sense. i wouldn't want to go to another country where i stood out. i wouldn't want to be the only white girl in an area populated by purely asians or some other culture, so i don't understand why middle-easterners would want to come to america and stick out like an obnoxious fucking thumb.
all i'm saying is, if you can't speak the languege and learn the customs of the country you're moving to, then stay where you are, because it makes very little sense to move there if you can't function like a normal citizen.
i never said people who aren't american aren't real people, first of all.
secondly, all i'm saying is:
if you're going to go to a country where you don't know the languege or customs, at least have the sense to not be an obnoxious twat about it. those girls in the store were more loud an obnoxious than anybody else there.
it's fucking america. if you're going to live here learn how to speak like everybody else or get the fuck out.
I know, but my question is....why do you care? If they annoy you, why do you care whether or not you can understand what they're talking so obnoxiously about? Maybe they were visiting, maybe they just moved here and haven't had the time to sit down and learn an entire language yet. I'm just saying, I can understand your basic sentiment, but I think you should be less hateful about it. Just because those girls were obnoxious doesn't mean all "foreigners" are that way. I live in NJ, the melting pot of the US, and I know plenty of "foreigners" and I gotta say, they're the nicest people I know. Which I know isn't saying much because...it's Jersey. I mean I don't speak French or Italian, but I'd totally love to go to those places, and I think it would be pretty obnoxious and unwelcoming if all they could feel towards me was, "Learn French or gtfo." How are we all supposed to coexist at least semi-peacefully and accept each other's cultural differences with attitudes like this?
foreigners REALLY annoy me.

So you're saying that before you go on vacation in another country, you'd learn to speak the language first?
Hey, here's a thought for you. Did you know.....that.....people who aren't American are sill real people?
