Yesterday, Brat decided to go bicycling for an hour from his work in north San Jose, CA to Fremont, CA and back. He came back to work all dripping wet, red hot in the face and smelly, of course, while carrying his ten year old bike inside his work place. A Thailand co-worker encounters him.
Thailand, a foreigner: So, did you go biking?
Americanized-Filipino: No, I went dancing!
In America, the `proper` scenario should have went something like this:
Thailand: Hey, Roger! How was the ride? You smell!
Filipino: Great! As you can see, I’m in need of a shower. Sorry.
