The Japenese and the American

An American and a Japanese were sitting on the plane on the way to LA,
when the American turned to the Japanese and asked, "What kind of '-ese'
are you?"

The Japanese, confused and replied, "Sorry but I don't understand what you
mean."

The American repeated, "What kind of '-ese' are you?"

Again, the Japanese was confused over the question.

The American, now irritated, then yell, "What kind of -ese are you? Are
you a Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, etc..."

The Japanese then replied, "Oh, I'm a Japanese!".

A while later, the Japanese turned to the American and asked, "What kind
of '-key' are you?"

The American, frustrated, yelled, "What you mean what kind of '-key' I am?"

The Japanese said, "Are you a monkey, donkey or a Yankee?
