Notable Korean-Americans include Jim Lee, Jae Lee, crazy Peter Chung, black Power Ranger Johnny Yong Bosch, Margaret Cho, John Cho, Rick Yune, pro pool player Jeanette Lee, Karen O. of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. R&B singer Amerie, golfer Michelle Wie, and ABC News's JuJu Chang.

My suggested mode of celebration is to slap some kimchee inside a hamburger bun. Or if you would like, you can always go Ask a Korean! instead.

Kimchee in a hamurger bun . . . ?

Also that guys take on Avatar was a good read, especially the "stuff white people like" section.

Jeez. So, in other words, based on this list, if Koreans went extinct, 99.99% of America (and probably less of the world) would neither notice nor care. Lucky they got a whole day.

I plan on celebrating by splitting this day right down the middle after a bloody war.

What about unbridled rape and destruction? Don't worry, they'll get over it with a nation-wide wireless service to forget the horrid history of China and Japan just devastating the cocklet of a country.

John Cho is Harold, and he loves White Castle.

The only one I can't place is Peter Chung, but I know I've heard the name. So it'll be one of those "Oh Yeah!" moments when someone tells me who he is.

So does this day celebrate North-Korean-Americans or South-Korean-Americans?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Chung <- Mother fucking Aeon Flux creator and director.

Ahhhhhhhhhh...Oh yeah.

One day out 365. Considering most Korean-Americans are Republican conservative Christians, maybe some percentage of America should try to care more, hmm?

Ah how...I remember when we were talking about it at this board...well not this board, but like the board before this one, before that one. Yeah.

And I still maintain it doesn't matter how cute you are...you are still fucking a giant snake.

Touche. But it doesn't make what I said any less true. Or sad.
