You redirect people's mind in thinking China = Chinese = No Taste = Fail. Am I correct? IS THAT YOUR LOGIC? If so, I won't bother wasting time arguing no more. As any human being with the right brain knows your logic is false.
At this period of time, as we condole the tragic of the Wenchuan Earthquake. You, Asian_XL, your actions demostrate your maturity and lack of morality.
looks like Asian_XL hit a nerve there.....don't be offended just because you come from the squatting-and-spitting, piss-in-public-places, lack-of-proper-social-behavior country we know as communist mainland china

Engrish mother fucker, do you speak it?

You condole? Okay even if you spelt console right you used it in the wrong context.

But he's right, in general, chinese = no taste = epic fail, drive through half of this city and look at the absolute monstrosities that have been built by the asian people in this city, you can walk down a street and point out which belong to asian people, and which don't.

And what the hell does the earth quake have to do with bad taste? And what does it have to do with his morality? If anything it has to do with his lack of empathy.

No wonder you were an SFU drop out home slice, you couldn't even pass a 3rd grade English test.

Why is SFU Dropout still a member here. He's a troll of the highest order, and picks lame fights at the drop of a hat.

Lomak please ban this poster, he clearly ignores the racism rule. I'm deeply offended by your statement, and I'm shocked at how many people would actually let it go. I dare you to come to say it to my face. You either change your view, or move out of here because Vancouver doesn't need racist like you.

I can understand this is the Off-topic section. BUT why WHY does it have to involve negativities of China posts? Is bashing China a popular offtime entertainment here in Vancouver? You call my comments dumbass. Fine, I'll take it because it is your opinions. What do you mean by 'program'? Don't you know China? Are you Chinese? If you are, please don't say you are Chinese in the public. You lose face to your fellow Chinese.

Deeply offended? Thats awfully hilarious for a guy that calls other people out then gets butthurt when they slide back.

I won't change my views, I think they're great, they got a reaction out of you. The irony of course is that Asian people, especially mainlanders and East Indians, are the most exclusive intolerant people on the face of the planet largely because of the caste systems.

Theirs nothing that fosters togetherness like thinking that the person next to you is a lesser human being because they have a different religion, different beliefs, or a different skin color.

So fuck you and the horse you rode in on faggot.

You mean popular past time?

China does suck, I laughed at the people on the corner of the Starbucks in Kerrisdale today asking money for the Earthquake relief fund.

Why? Because China is killing people in tibet, the world doesn't like it, China is doing nothing to help the slaughter in the Sudan, the world doesn't like it, China has the worst human rights record currently in the world, except maybe next to Russia, and you guys are asking for our money?

China, the least generous caring nation in the world asking for our monays, you can't be serious.

Tell you what, you are nothing but a little ignorant racist. If you happen to be a white Canadian, remember this, you are an immigrant youself. Canada is a multicultural nation, and it is bonded together by MANY mainlanders (more are coming) and MANY East Indians (more are coming as well!). I'll leave the thinking part to you.

I'm racist, I'm the product of a interracial relationship, I'm half white half east indian, so I come from the English point of view, and the immigrants point of view.

Either way you're still retarded.

I don't know when Grandstand turned the corner and started saying things I began agreeing with, but this is one of them.
One of the things my friend said to me when she came to visit from the states is how ugly our skyline is. Too many glass buildings and generic looking condos.

In an area of the world thats expecting a significant earthquake we seem to be in love with building towers constructed seemingly from only glass and concrete. I'd hate to be in the street when the big one hits and be greeted with a shower of bloody death.

Vancouver's highrise architecture is cheap, looks cheap, and will prove to be unsafe.

Also, why do we need so many windows in a city that gets so much rain?

He never said he had a problem with Chinese people. He said he had a problem with modern Chinese architecture trends. How are you pigeonholing his distaste for design into a case for a racist rant? And what do East Indians have to do with a house in China we all find grotesque?

My personal favourite is the one on 16th going up that has a copper plated roof.

Or the one with ivory shingles on granville.

I brought up east indians when he said that Canadians, especially white ones, are racist and not inclusive of immigrants.

I said thats pretty ironic because Asian people (incl. East Indians) are the least inclusive groups on the planet, look at the continental divide between the cultures here, surrey and richmond.

Both sides need to calm the fuck down, there's some absolute horrendous houses like the ones above in China, yet most of the Chinese cities have the slickest and best looking high rises in the world. And here in Vancouver I've seen some atrocious houses made by Western people, as well as nice ones done by Chinese businessmen.

Bad taste isn't limited to a race or a country.

Hey idiot,

You are the one who started a fight when there was no argument to begin with. Most of us agreed that the house asian_XL posted was hideous and you viewed our comments as being anti-China.

And you're calling Grandstand a racist? Give me a fucking break. If my memory serves correctly you are that ethnocentric bitch 'pondering when Korea will rejoin China'. Oh wait, here it is!

Your ethnocentric mentality disgusts me. Is that not a form of racism?

Seriously, just shut up already. Clearly, the majority of the RS members do not appreciate your comments. I'm surprised you aren't banned yet.

I think I just became a little more retarded from reading this one-sided argument.
Stop trying, SFUDropOut, I'm saying this as a friendly reminder to you that you're far from Fight Club material.

My condolences to other Chinese users on RS.
