Asians in the Ribrary - A rant gone virar.

Didn't you know? Colleges let anyone in these days. As long as mommy and daddy pay the tuition on time, they don't care. People like this are the reason I have said that kids are simply getting dumber on the average every year.
Personally, she is my hero. It's about time someone stood up to the Asian Menace. For too long they have been dominating sports that used to be a White man's game, such as Math Team, Oddesy of the Mind and, of course, playing Center for the Houston Rockets. I am glad she brought up just how disruptive Asians can be, they are able to focus on whatever they are doing be it phone calls, balancing complex organic chemical equations or gong playing while we white people require at minimum, 5x more focus and dedication to a subject because of our tendency to be easily distracted. They are purposely distracting us so that our White youths have no chance to get jobs as Computer Science technicians, chemists, doctors, or sushi chefs. So to all you Asians who have ever talked on your phone while in the library I say shame on you.
"Use American Manners".
Best thing ever said by a dumb bimbo, in my opinion. Since you know if I used American manners I'd talk on my cell phone in a library to piss someone like her off. Kind of agree with people that I can't believe she ranted this on the internet. Probably just to get attention on her new push-up bra.

According to a person I met in Hong Kong when I was on holiday there, Cantonese/Mandarin/Most other languages from that part of the world are meant to be spoken loudly.
Depends if it involves sex.
That's why they invented ear plugs. Or ball-gags
She doesn't look like the type of girl who is into that kind of stuff..
As a note, I personally agree with the "America is too set on being PC" outlook on racism, and believe a certain level of racial stereotyping/joke making is actually a healthy thing. I would point out that America tends to be rather indifferent to Asian stereotyping/racial slurring though...
...that said, as an Asian (Chinese and Japanese, so I will take the liberty to not be hated for making stereotypes about my own ethnic groups), I would like it if the stereotypes were correctly directed at their respective groups, rather than a general pooling.
Take auto sales in China-- a lot of Japanese companies like Toyota pulled in American sales experts of their companies because culturally, American approach to business and human interaction is generally a lot more similar to Chinese than Japanese approach (Chinese and Americans alike will forever be confused by Japanese tact).
Now if you make jokes about how cheapskate and tactless Chinese people are, about how annoyingly non-upfront/non-confrontational Japanese are, or how angry Koreans are, I will be in stitches.

This one's new to me. Damn it, I wish my parents would have done this for me. O.o
Wait what? What group are we talking about?
Ok there we go. Chinese city people are definitely a "move it or lose it" crowd, but I'll say Americans are ridiculously noisy compared to Japanese or Koreans. Actually, I'm naturally really loud, and I CONSTANTLY get crap for it, by my family, in Japan, in America, wherever.
I agree with this. I frankly love racial jokes, but they're only funny if the stereotype actually applies. Try to get those right, because Japanese, Chinese, Koreans and all the other Asian groups are much less similar to each other than "Black," "White" or "Hispanic" Americans tend to be.

Not college, Dan, UCLA. There's a difference.
That's the thing though it's America. I'm Asian and I'm not offended by it; if anything I just thought it was funny how one video of an asian guy responded and he talks like he's defending every single Asian out there. Honestly in my eyes asian people are too competitive which can be good and bad hence why people say we're cheap lol, they also take things pretty serious (look at that video sparked alot of angry asians toward it) and yeah I can confirm they do talk loud in general which annoys me too lol. Though when I speak mandarin or Vietnamese I don't talk like I'm on fire or something. Guess it's just depends on the person.
I think comatthew's response is pretty well just as bad as the original video.
Except she's not hot in the slightest. Video still valid.
i no longer care. her video is no longer valid.
