@tigertiger: Right, that had occurred to me. My reasons for concluding that he is:
- He implies that he has observed foreigners around Kunming, so he apparently lives here.
- His grammar issues are reminiscent of many Chinese learners of English.
- "You falling short of standard. shame own family." This seems culturally characteristic.
- The deluge of hyperbolic insults reminds me of threads I have seen on some Chinese discussion forums.
- Certain insults (e.g., big ears) have traditionally been used here against Westerners.
Still, some of these things could probably characterize other Asians as well, so I might be wrong.
James, have you noticed that nobody here is even bothering to reciprocate your insults? Why do you think that is?
First, your posts show an extremely poor command of the English language. They also demonstrate cultural illiteracy: stringing together lots of coarse insults may be effective in some settings, but in English-speaking culture it just sounds unhinged.
In short, there is no need for anyone to insult you because you are already embarrassing yourself so badly with what you write.
I have found the great majority of Chinese people that I have met here to be gracious and goodhearted. I have naturally shared my experiences with people I know abroad. To the degree that this is repeated among other foreigners on a larger scale, it means that when you and other Chinese people travel abroad, you are more likely to be welcomed with friendly smiles.
Why not emulate your compatriots?
Miyamoto, you are indeed entitled to your opinion, but insults are rude and disrespectful.
For example, if you find your friend's wife to be ugly, that's not an opinion which needs to be bluntly stated to anyone.
Having said that, it's a bit ironic -- I just yesterday happened to come into proximity to a westerner who was so loud and obnoxious that I left the premises in order not to have to hear him anymore. This kind of thing rarely happens to me, but maybe I can understand a bit where you're coming from.
Still, it seems like a fragile way to live -- to be so sensitive that the mere presence of people from any of a number of different groups ("douchebag americans", etc.) can kill your buzz. Sort of a hothouse flower mode of existence. Maybe you could try to meditate on something like this: "...there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so." Even if it doesn't hold true in all cases, it's a useful perspective to have in one's mental kit -- especially if you're looking to chill.
"douchebag americans"
"desperate, older european and american alchoholic from thailand"
"angry chinese jarhead patriot on golf cart tours"
"big headed loudmouth thinks they funny"
"pretend successful entrepeneur"
Miyamoto, you say you want to hang out with "chilled out, creative relaxed people".
But perhaps the question is whether they would want to hang out with you.

"Pain campagnard" (or more commonly "pain de campagne") is a specific name used by bakeries in France for a particular type of bread. Just calling something "country bread" in English could mean anything.
