What it is.
And apparently Hitler likes it too.

I have no idea why this horrible K-pop track is so popular.

Probably because it is super goofy.
BTW, the second link takes bad taste to new levels.

If Hitler had this music, the Nazis would have won, because the Italians would have listened to it and then fought bravely.
I lived and worked in Gangnam (part of Seoul) for about six months.

I just like the way their factories work, or don't. Most SE Asian beer tastes like water but has a surprising amount of liquor beneath the surface. |

They use a lot of rice in it. Did you ever go to Etaewon (in Seoul)? I took my Aussie friends down there to experience "Hooker Hill". |

There was actually a very nice Indian restaurant close to hooker hill. By far the best Indian food I ever ate in Korea.

Why would you eat Indian food in Korea? |

That's like going to Italy and seeking out Mexican restaurants. |

With the possible exception of 9/11, that would probably be mostly friendly fire wouldn't it? Unless you count casualty US soldiers as victims, which is arguable. |

I suppose that depends on the proportion of civilians in places like Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, Iraq, Somalia, and Libya that one counts as "friendly" to al Qaeda. The most accurate way to break that down would probably be 'militant Islamist fundamentalists, Jihadi sympathizers and drug dealers' in the "friendly" camp, and "everybody else" in the "just trying to survive" camp. So yes, I think the bulk of what you seem to think of as "friendly fire" (apparently for ethnic reasons) are indeed "victims".
However, why would you make 9/11 an "exception"? I don't see the logic is writing off 3,000 horribly murdered innocent civilians. What is your thinking behind that? |
