1) Filipinos or people of other countries is logically equivalent to "people of other countries".
2) foreigners == "people of other countries", so this rule is the same as 1.
It wouldn't be the same as #2, which is a group of only foreigners.
Frankly, considering the context, you're rather no very friendly either, as the sign wasn't meant for a english speaking country nor a native english speaker. To say that they're retards shows your level of tolerence isn't much higher

Oh please. I'm ragging on a public sign that is apparently outside a commercial establishment for it's lack of sense ... as well as social enlightenment, and you think that I'm being unfriendly or have a low level of tolerance? Just based on that?
:shocked:
I'm probably a bit older than most people here, and I've been around the world a few times. I reserve the right to make fun of morons anywhere!

As I said, it's in a non-native english speaking country, most likely translated w/ babelfish or some crappy J-E dictionary. Nowhere in my post did I condone that type of behavior, and nowhere did I suggest that you were unfriendly.
So, just as you reserve the right to rag on morons anywhere, I reserve the right to say that you can't tolerate a little engrish.

I rove Engrish...in fact I wrote the sign myself to rally my filipino brothers to storm the bar and learn the Engrish first hand from the masters who work @ the bar.
Who wants a t-shirt with no foreigners allowed? :mrgreen:

No Foreigners Allowed. There's no way around it: whenever you go drinking in Tokyo's fashionable Roppongi district, there's always the chance you'll run into a bar that forbids gaijin (foreigners) from entering. ... =T

that's dope...walk around japan wearing that....until you meet one guy wearing the t-shirt that says "no japanese allowed" and then you can go grab a drink together to show how much you hate each other.

I'll buy "I want a Japanese Girlfriend" t-shirt instead. ;) j/k
That shirt is stupid enough to get you beat up by Otaku and scare the girls away. :sweat:

did you ever see this tv variety show special they had guest starring some of the stars of Densha Otoko where they show this damsel in distress in Akihabara?
it was all made up...they showed this really pretty girl being harshly spoken to by another man in an alley in Akihabara...almost every otaku who came across this scene did absolutely nothing to assist this woman...some walked by as if they had seen nothing....othes were afraid to walk past the scene at at all...others turned back and basically ran away....one guy, just one guy came up and tried to intervene.
mind you some of these otakus were actually physically more imposing than the guy berating the woman. it was funny.
I think I saw that, Trivia Seed, right? ... but I thought most of the nerds (over 60%) actually did something to help.
you may be right...perhaps my memory serves me wrong but what i distinctly remember was that hardly anybody helped....that's why i thought it was funny...i honestly can't be certain it was some time ago :doh:
