I don't blame you. I'm not even being a wise ass. We were legit confused, you all looked the same when we moved here. All have that sunken eyes that cast shadow over their eyes. All looked either brunette or barbie blonde.

I think this is a documented phenomena or something, I remember a wiki entry.

DO we all smell like dusty afghan rugs, too? I kinda feel like we do.

folks: this is how you hold a grudge--both about a people, and long-dead ancient grammar rules.

well done.

i'll forgive them in 2066 since that's eactly 1000 years after the conquest

provided i live into my 80s, that is. my blood pressure's been so high lately IDK if i'll make it into my 60s.

if i don't make it that long then the grudge goes with me to the grave

Hey Atots, how y'all doing this Monday evening?

So, did you know that Asians are racists to each other? I mean this may be obvious to some. All nations are.

I'm Korean. As a kid, my DAD told me a stereotyping line about Chinese. "What don't they eat that has legs?, they say." He said with a playful smirk.

Who's THEY? It's an established Korean saying.

Oh yea. We are racists to each other.

Did you know we make fun of their language the SAME way Americans do? It's the same Ching Chong! Imagine that- a Korean person making belittling 'Chinese' sound to a Chinese person.... in the EYES of a white person.

You know English hate the French, vice versa. To us, that's just buncha white folks angry at each other.

You've been great, atots. Have a good one.

Boo! Go back home.

I love Asians...I think they're hot, smart, and well put together, but I swear to God I can not keep myself from reading a Chinese menu in an Asian accent. I know it's wrong, but it's a habit that can not be broken. Please forgive me!

Standup is hard, and you have a long road ahead of you my friend. I think you should try out your material in smaller forums first.
