Ive been teaching debate at an English academy in Seoul for about 6 mo now. Just the other day, I remembered one of my earliest experiences in Korea that had to do with the tiny ******** towels. Why is it so hard to find a full size towel? WTF? Anyway, I don't speak a word of Korean. So when some middle aged lady (adjuma) came by my apartment to test for gas leaks just as I was stepping out of the shower, trying to dry myself with what amounted to a dish towel, I could not explain to the nice lady that she would have to wait a minute before I let her in........needless to say, our communication difficulties ended when I relented and let her push the door open to reveal me naked, dripping wet, and barley covering myself with an inadequate wash rag excuse for a towel. Man did she jump! HHAHAHAHAHAA anyway she came back in ten minutes and wouldn't look me in the eye, diligently devoting her complete attention to testing for dangerous gas leaks! HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAA
