I actually think BLKROKT was making a flip reply about your "korean/chinese/jap" remark. The jap aspect is kinda racist. It takes just 5 more letters to say "Japanese". I'll refrain from posting up some of the other racist nicknames we don't use, and hope you just avoid them on your own.

Oddly enough, you could read racism in my innocent lazy/rush, and step up to defend a usual bully, because he's a friend... That's really odd. I was actually trying not to generalize a language that I can't read by calling it "chinese", when it could be korean or japanese; if I did so, then I could be disrespecting someone. But if racism was "readable" from what I was writing, then I must apologize. You are indeed correct. It was not mean to offend, by any means.
I don't think he needs defending by me. He is clearly capable of defending himself, and I have locked horns with him a few times myself.
But I live in an area where there were internment camps in the Second World War, I have neighbours who are Japanese, and we also have have large communities of all those nationalities here. I would have said something if you used one of the common slurs re the Chinese or the Koreans.
I would have said something no matter how he replied, it was merely my first time reading it myself, and I objected to it. Thank you for apologizing.
