An internet meme floating around depicts the differences between Chinese culture and German culture. Political-correctness aside (some of images are pretty spot-on for Korean culture), I think the images are very well done and portray the differences quite well; one of those rare examples where the joke goes beyond cultural borders and can be understood due to good usage of common symbols.
"It's just strange because I don't even know you in real life but for some reason I keep reading your blog, and it's not even that interesting, I guess I'm waiting to see if it ever does get interesting... it's like a really boring soap opera and I'm waiting to see if it ever gets good, so far five years and not really..." #
I saw this and thought: this guy is f#$ked up! First, notice his fixation on space and time. Manifesting in a need for money. It makes him uncertain, sad, self referencing (self loathing probably) and he tries to fill the void with sensory overloads. Dude, ‘remember be here now’. Hold on. Aggression? Oral fixation? Taste sensations? Laaaaddiieeess…. No Roy, I don’t want to go camping with you. LOL Ok just joking. Except for the ‘remember be here now part’. #

I think the most startlingly in-your-face image is the "Definition of Beauty" one. Asia's obsession with fair skin has always boggled my mind.
