Singing Chinese

Who the hell wants to see a chinese sing? I don't mean to sound like a hardcore racist shit but come on, you don't want to see a chinese sing. I know there's jose marie chan, in fairness, the dude has a talent, he makes those christmas and love songs that SOUNDS good (especially when your in a PUV and don't have a choice on what kind of stuff to listen to), it's ok to hear his songs but we don't want to SEE him sing! or even perform for free. Ok, there's W.Hung, the american idol freak, even listening on his songs is crap, but imagine him singing seriously, and not making parodies or performing revivals, it would be such a pain! Chinese pipol are good in many stuffs, like mathematics, and i don't know if the fuckin abacus have something to do with that. BUt singing is not definitely one of them, can you imagine confucious singing "humanap ka ng pangit?".

I'm telling you this stuff because I had an experience SEEING and sitting beside a "chinoy" (but prominently chinese)in a passenger vehicle. We were sitting infont of the tamaraw FX on my way to office, then suddenly, this chinoy started singing (loud enough for me and the driver to hear his golden buddha voice)when the radio station played the song "let the love begin" I thought that my suffering is over when the song finished but the fuckin radio station played the "mulawin" soundtrack by S.Border and the chinese dude started singing again, i was silently praying to the chinese gods to turn my seatmate into a frog I can put him in a can and donate him into laboratory so that he would stop disturbing the peacefulness or the zen of this world, but they did not listen! (is it because i'm not chinese?)

So i had to make a decision and take control of the situtation by myself. What i did was, i removed my killer sunglasses and looked directly to the small eyes of the dude, i took 5 deep breathes (while staring at him) and asked him "Have you ever looked in the eyes of your victim?"
He did not sing anymore, i don't know why.
