An American and a Japanese were sitting on the plane on the way to LA when the American turned to the Japanese and asked, 'What kind of -ese are you?' The Japanese confused, replied, 'Sorry but I don't understand what you mean.' The American repeated, 'What kind of -ese are you ?' Again, the Japanese was confused over the question. The American, now irritated, then yelled, 'What kind of -ese are you...Are you a Chinese, Japanese,Vietnamese, etc......' The Japanese then replied, 'Oh, I am a Japanese.' A while later the Japanese turned to the Americans and asked what kind of '-key' was he. The American, frustrated, yelled, 'What do you mean what kind of '-key' am I ?!' The Japanese said, 'Are you a monkey, donkey or a Yankee?' Lesson learnt: Never insult anyone.
