Round Asian Guy

Bobs has a fellow Vietnamese coworker, named Quoc. During an afternoon lunch at Zen32, we chill and chat and he goes, "Everyone likes you because you're a round asian guy." How is one supposed to respond to that? First thing that comes to mind is, "Are you calling me fat?!?!?!"

The long explanation goes, in Vietnamese, there's a term that you use to say, "Oh, your baby is so cute" blah blah. Mat Trong is the word, which literally means, round face. So, generally cute babies are the ones that are chubby. So yeah...he's saying I'm fat. 150 lbs, 5' 8'' fat round asian kid nicknamed Chubs, oh yeah!

I think Quoc is jealous of your popularity ;)
