oh yah, and by the way, there is also another term for banana. i think, it’s eggman or something. basically, it refers to the chinese who were raised in america. you know the ABC thing, ‘american born chinese’. so these chinese abandon their own heritage and adopt the western culture…something like that X/

hehe, guess what? Actually, we’re both not bananas. I did some ‘research’ on the term banana and i found out that it actually means asian people who think that they are more european/american than asian. Banana,

Great Subkiller! I don’t think you’re a banana at all!!

Phoebe, you’re not a banana. You’re not even chinese leh… X/ You’re mix

A non-chinese who doesn’t know chinese is not banana. A chinese who doesn’t read/write/speak is banana.

And me? Semi-bananatic, since I cant read/write but speak chinese X/
