The writer of that article needs to chill on the formatting. Great post by Bennett though.
My house is all hardwood and tile, so I'm with you on this.The my house is hardwood excuse is crazy... Slippers exist..
Last month on Tigerbelly, a podcast featuring comedian Bobby Lee and his best friend Khalyla, Lee spoke about a recent audition he went to read for. The project was a stoner movie and the role was a small one with 5 lines. To Lees dismay, he ran into actor Steven Yeun there, auditioning for the same part. Lee was pissed Yeun even had to audition so pissed he wanted to take him outside to yell at him afterwards. Let me tell yall, I never felt more like Bobby Lee in my life. We are all Bobby Lee in this moment.
Steven Yeun is most known for playing Glenn Rhee, arguably one of the most beloved characters in AMCs The Walking Dead. After Glenn met his gruesome fate, social media was trending with sad sentiments but also optimism for a bright future in Yeuns career. Although there is no confirmed truth to the rumors, Yeun as Nightwing in the DCEU franchise is one of the most popular fancasts out there. Why, then, is he standing in line to read for a minor movie role of a mere 5 lines? When asked this by Lee, Yeuns answer was this: Dude, I gotta read. The cold, hard truth. Lets not beat around the bush the reason he has to read for these minor roles is not through any fault of his own. It is because Hollywood doesnt want to give him bigger opportunities.

I dunno if it's thread worthy so I'll just put it here.. if someone else wants to start a thread about it feel free.
Smh...shit just makes my blood boil... we argue about bankable Asian American actors ... here we have one right here and he has to audition for a 5 line part.
P.S. While I'm at it, Asian men are super sexy. So with all due respect fuck you Steve Harvey.

I don't think most of them understand or care to find out what it is.I'm so tired of reading threads about China and Trump here. All posters care is that Trump is messing up. No one talks about how shitty the actual One China policy is. No one actually cares about Taiwan. All posters on GAF care is that they can mock Trump some more. No one talks about the Taiwanese and Chinese side of affairs.
Ugh.

Hello brotherThat's better than my experiences, I think. Women tend to think I'm husband material and not boyfriend material.

That's what Mafia 3 is about. A lot of racism against blacks in that game in the narrative sense and mechanical too. I did like the empty open world in Mafia 2. It was really there to add more context to the world and they did a good job of it I think.So I've been playing Mafia II.
It's a good game (despite the huge waste of an open-world sandbox) but since it's set in the 40's/50's, it includes the culture and attitudes of the time. And that attitude includes Chinese racism.
There's a part in the story where you deal with the Chinese Triad. So, because you keep company with foul-mouthed gangsters, a lot of the "C" word is thrown around, along with references to their skin colour and eyes.
What is also interesting is that while there are no significant black characters in the story, the ones that do show up are not subject to any racist comments (I never heard the "N" word). There is segregation and racist stereotypes, but nothing terribly explicit.
The kicker is that an Italian-American organization accused the developers of being racist towards Italians.
I know of no rights of race superior to the rights of humanity, and when there is a supposed conflict between human and national rights, it is safe to go to the side of humanity.
I really like these cheesy, stupid holidays, and today Meph surprised me at work with chocolate, a rose, and TWO mochas because he knew I'd be working past 10pm. That thread about married people being happy is probably true if your partner is supportive, loving, considerate, and wonderful. Yeah. /cheese
^- good luck!
They're remaking The Raid with white people :lol
This too will bomb and Hollywood will learn nothing.

Go to the salon or barber shop or whatever, and when they ask you what you want, tell them whatever it is they think would look good on you.I've had the awful typical bowl haircut my entire life and I want to change that. Teach me how to hair, Asian-GAF.
So I've been playing Mafia II.
Oh my god I wanted to join but then I had to study for the CPA and now that's over for now I have busy season.
sad QQ
I feel it is just a matter of time before Trump starts turning his attention to Asians with discriminatory executive orders. What's he going to do after he dealt with Muslims and Mexicans, right? He is always very negative about China too so that's a natural extension to his discriminatory actions. What do you guys think?

It's weird to think that no one would care about what happens to you unless whatever was going to happen to you would eventually happen to them. I feel like you should care regardless of whether or not you're in danger of it happening to you.I feel it is just a matter of time before Trump starts turning his attention to Asians with discriminatory executive orders.

Welp. That Dalai Lama thread turned into "it's ok to hate on Chinese" real quick.
The usual suspects too.
Did it? I'm getting the impression people are calling out those students for being thin-skinned. Or at least this is my own evaluation of the situation
