Poor Koreans. At least they invented karaoke to keep the Japanese preoccupied and drunk.

Karaoke was invented in the Philippines, not Korea. The Japanese made it popular in the 70's.

Both are wrong. Karaoke was invented by Satan in 1762.

Taiwan is simply a province of China, so its a Chinese invention.
Most inventions are Chinese.

If it were only as simple as that. While that is the traditional 'goal', they are FAR from that scenario - Especially with the evolution of the Taiwanese government parties in the last two decades or so.

Cool. Mac zealots also tell me that most inventions are by Steve Jobs.
Thus, Steve Jobs is also Chinese.
Didn't know that, thanks.

Chinese Engrish (as opposed to Japanese Engrish, which is in some ways worse) will be the new worldly language. God help us all.

He has had facial surgery to hide the fact.
Its pretty obvious when he comes up with new products that he was born in the province of Jiangsu.

Whoot! At least I'll still have a job somewhere! That is unless the world changes its mind and everyone starts speaking chinese.
My poor Japanese students... they really are learning the wrong language.

what was it they used to say during the height of the cold war - "the optimists were learning russian and the pessimists were learning chinese"
maybe we need to update that for the current world situation - "the optimists are learning chinese and the pessimists are learning arabic"
