Defeat the purpose how?
When you are telling someone off it makes sense to do it so they understand. Generally speaking.
The thing is here, that most people assume because I am a foriegner that I am in fact the devil. So when it really comes down to me needing to tell someone off because I just can't take it anymore, I don't want to automatically feed into the continuing sterotype that all Americans are vulgar loud mouths. Koreans see enough of that on t.v.
No, if I'm going to go up against the people here, I'm going to direct it at the individual, and I'm going to let them know that:
1) You offended me.
2) I am not a vulgar American
3) I've done me homework
4) I'm better at swearing in your language then you are because I'm not afraid of the moral consequneces
Ah, life.
