I love my boy Jabama Mama (yes, the same guy that gave me lactose intolerance). He is one of the most P.C., culturally sensitive dudes you'll ever meet. I like to call him a socialist, cause...well...I think he is one. He hates all forms of stereotypes (even really funny ones), and will engage you in long, mind numbing discussions on how Asian Americans are victims of a rascist media. Forget the fact that Asian Americans make up what appears to be half of the highly competitive University of California school system and have one of the highest average incomes among all social groups in America, Jabama Mama thinks that we're getting a raw deal.
One thing that pisses off Jabama Mama more than anything is caricatures, like the one pictured above. Although I can see how someone could get offended, I can't convince myself to be one of them. Does it look like a Chinaman with slanted eyes and a rice hat? Yes it does. But when Jabama first emailed me the picture, my first thought was: "That's pretty damn funny". Honestly, if I saw the cups at the La Jolla store prior to Jabama's email, I would have bought some myself.
Don't get me wrong. The last thing I am is a twinkie. I hate motherfucking Asians who worship the ground that white people walk on. These assholes disgust me and will be the subject of future blogs. FUCK...short diversion: I hate motherfucking Asian girls that only date white guys. You fucking, slut ass whores should be sent back to Asia and made to work in the rice fields or whore houses. Was daddy strict with you when you were a little girl so now you suck every white dick you see? Fuck you bitch. Ok, enough of that. Where was I? Right, so I'm not a twinkie, but I also think everyone should lighten the fuck up about shit like these Chinese juicers, or the Indian mascots, or the grinning Cowboy. I mean really, that's just taking life a bit too seriously. If you're a rascist, redneck from the sticks, you didn't become one cause of some godam cartoon character.
So I really want to know what you guys think. Please let me know whether you think I'm an insensitive prick for not being offended or my boy Jabama Mama is a overly sensitive Socialist.
Me love you long time

Are not the levels of racism thick and twisted? The sword doesn't cut evenly in all directions. Notice in most "Asian" populations, the lowest class almost always has the darkest skin. Sure, there is an amazing number of Asian Americans who have climbed the American latter of success, yet the number who haven't is even larger. As far as Asian women who only date white men, what do they say about this when you ask them?
Thanks for stopping by. Your comment that "the number who haven't [climed the ladder of success] is even larger" would be accurate for every race. My general point is that Asian Americans, in the aggregate, are one of the most upwardly mobile classes in America.
The response from these girls are almost universally the same: white guys are nicer and better looking. I think this response is driven by 2 factors: strict dads and - I hate to agree with Jabama - a slanted media. I have many more blogs on this subject.
I think they're mildly racist (is there such a thing?). I mean, they're total caricatures, but please. At least they didn't put the buck teeth and platform slippers.
Thanks Raven. I'm using IE. I should use Firefox but I'm sort of a lameass with the computer I wouldnt even know how to install it.
Thanks Raven, now I know what you mean with the polls. It is fucked up!!!
