okay im browsing yahoo and i see this ad. i admit it is hilarious but what the f**k??? btw im chinese



in the TV commrecials they also have a mexican dude and a white guy - "Big Spenda" Lopez and "The Fee" Jones...

If there's anything to criticize, its the fact that it perpetuates the train of thought that Asians should dress/act/talk one way, black people should dress/act/talk one way, etc.

We always hear stuff like "man, they're just trying to act black." But I mean, damn. There are millions of black people in Africa that don't act that certain way. Does that make them less black?
