Oh Moby, you-touchy-feely-techno-vegan-China Hand, you.

Gaijin = Foreigner. In Japanese.

Dirty laowai would have been “ironic.”

Not to mention less “idiot”-ic.

(I suppose.)

    Yep. Laowai. That’s exactly what I was thinking, before I even read it.

  2. quadshock says:

    Or Bakgwai in Cantonese-Chinese

  3. Cindy says:

    老外 ! 谢谢! I always welcome the help with my vocabulary lessons. So many stupid people in the world…Jen and Diana, you must be overwhelmed with the endless resources.

  4. farleyk says:

    I thought it was “kwai-lo”, felt like an idiot, too, then checked and found that this is the Cantonese word. I read this in a James Clavell novel years ago and it stuck, probably because it would refer to me.

  5. Jen says:

    Me = Mandarin-centric

  6. dalianmoon says:

    Me, too, Jen! And I’m not even Chinese.

  7. PD says:

    Wow, Moby is like, so deep.

  8. prometheus says:

    Who is this guy?

    But yeah, there’s some irony when he uses gaijin instead of kwai-lo or lao-wai or even bai-gui.
