minyin and i are discussing dialect group stereotypes. teochews are supposed to be haolian, and that i can well believe, just look at choonping and vaughn.

also, yesterday when talking to vaughn's mum the question of being teochew came up. i said i was only half my mother is cantonese. the very first response?:"oh she must be very good at po tong. (brewing soup.)"

what dialect group stereotypes do we have?

also, while googling teochew stereotypes, i found this thread on a forum about whether teochews were the superior group. the post subject is so choonping, and the responses are even more hilarious.
