Man Always Mentions Godzilla Movies When Seeing Korean Friend

Share

DALLAS - Local man Herbert Fuzz knows it's wrong, but can't help thinking about Godzilla movies when visiting his friend John Lee.

The only one bothered about Fuzz' behavior is Fuzz and his new girlfriend Cindy.Lee, a Korean-American, has been friends with Fuzz for over 10 years and isn't bothered about his friend's vaguely racist behavior. "Herb's a good guy," said Lee, "I'm pretty sure it's a subconscious thing. He loves Godzilla movies, and he knows I'm Korean, not Japanese."

Fuzz has felt terrible about this ever since his new girlfriend pointed it out last weekend. "When [Fuzz' girlfriend] Cindy told me I'd only talk about Godzilla versus Mechagodzilla whenever John [Lee] came over to our table at Hooters, I told her she was full of it," explained Fuzz. "A whole group of us was out, and I was sure I was talking Godzilla with everyone. I told her she was wrong, but the more I thought about it, she was totally right. I'm not trying to be racist or anything, I don't know why I'm doing it."

Fuzz' girlfriend Cindy, meanwhile, is convinced that the slips prove that her new boyfriend is a "latent racist." "I think it's only a matter of time," said Cindy, "before [Fuzz] blows up like that Michael Richards guy from Seinfeld. He's gonna go nuts on some 7-11 clerk or liquor store employee or something, and I don't wanna be with someone like that."

Cindy is widely expected to break up with Fuzz "probably tonight" or "tomorrow."
