The grading scale for an Asian student is typically different from that of the average American student.
When you're a normal American:
A: Stands for "AWESOME" you're doing great.
B: Above average, you're still doing good
C: Average.. you could be doing better, but you're slacking
D: Below average, you're slipping, but you can still make it up is you try
F: Well, you just failed, didn't you. No need to really explain that.
---
Now, when you're ASIAN, it's A LOT different. "A" no longer stands for "awesome" anymore.
A : stands for "average" - anything below that is pretty unacceptable to your parents.
B : stands for "bad" - you're already at a below average cause all the other Asians and getting A's!
C : stands for "crap" - you're doing terrible and your parents will be pissed. They'll probably spank you or ground you, and you'll be sent to your room without dinner that night. If you DO have dinner that night, the topic to be discussed at the table is how disappointed everyone everyone is with you. This will be followed by comparisons to you and your successful siblings, cousins or fellow Asian students. That's right, your parents know every other Asian kid in your school even if you aren't friends with them. That's because your parents are friends with theirs and their parents like to brag. Bastards.
D : stands for "death" - your parents will threaten to kill you. They will not hesitate to beat the crap outta you, and when they're tired, they'll send you to your room, but once they've regained their energy they'll go into your and continue to yell and insult you. They'll take away your things (laptop, games mp3, phone, ect.) and even if pull up your grades by the next semester, you won't get them back until the semester after that. Oh yeah, you will be labeled as an embarrassment.
F : stands for "FUCKED!" Not ONLY will your parents beat the shit outta you, they'll probably make a call to your relatives in (china, korea, philippines, etc, where ever they're from) and start looking for plane tickets online. That's right, you will be sent out of the country cause your parents can't even stand to look at you anymore.

Asian: shit, my grades suck this semester
Friend: what are you talking about? You got A's, B's, and a C.
Asian: yeah, but on the asian grading scale that means I'll get about 2 and a half beatings and I probably won't be able to see daylight on the weekends...

Get the Asian Grading Scale mug.The act of mass texting a generic message to members of the opposite sex in hopes that a guaranteed hookup for the night will be established. It often involves a very nonspecific message such as "What are you up to tonight?" or "Want to meet up later?" The key feature is the lack of personalization so that the same message can be sent to as many people as possible. This can also be applied to other contact means such as myspace, facebook or email.

Get the Gracing mug.Similar to cube cruising, this term reflects an individual that spends most mornings (particularly Mondays) or lazy afternoons wandering from cube to cube to pause and talk about the past weekends activities, but also what's on tap for the next weekend, that night, what's for lunch, or any subject matter whatsoever. Upon moving from cube to cube, the same story can be heard being told repeatedly throughout the day. This person often "grazes" in an effort to avoid work at all possible costs.
These are examples that lead to cube grazing:
Mark was asking Lisa what she's having for lunch today?
John came into the office all smiles and asked everyone, "Did you guys see the game yesterday?"
Suzie was looking forward to spending time with her husband on their anniversary weekend and getting away. She proceeded to let everyone know that they were going on vacation by turning her "Out of Office message" on Thursday.

Get the cube grazing mug."I know something you don't know!"
... (Conversation carries on and the 'something' still hasn't been told)
"Please just tell me! It's grating on me now!"

Get the Grating mug.Americans and other somewhat easy-going peoples' grading scale should look a little like this...
A = Good job! Keep up the good work!
B = That's still good. But you can do better.
C = You're that the average level...which is acceptable.
D = Uh oh, you need to step up your game.
F = Well, you failed. Hopefully you can get a better grade later so you can pass.
HOWEVER. This is about the Asian Grading Scale. If you are a true hardcore Asian, unlike myself, then your grading scale should look a little like this...
A+ = Average.
Regular A = Acceptable...But You Can Do Better.
B = BULLSHIT. WTF-Were-You-Doing-In-Class?!?!
C = Cut-YOU WILL GET FUCKING CUT.
D = DEATH. That's it.
F = FUCKED. Wait, no, you can't get an F because you'd already be dead.
Most children will get beaten the shit out of them. Hopefully, that won't be you.

Yesterday I brought home my report card, with a B- for P.E. After all, Asians aren't good at anything not pertaining to academics. Haha just kidding I'm beast at sports. Just not at "participation," an excuse for the non-fit fatties. ANYWAYS, I gave the report card to my mom. She always uses the Asian Grading Scale.
"WHAT IS THIS? A-DA B MINUS? NO RICE FOR YOU DUMB-A-ASS. GO DIE."
Sad face.
This example was made for humourous people. Please do not take this to heart...unless this happens...then I'm sorry for you. Even my parents are less strict :U
