- Hey, so where are you from again? - Tennessee. - No, where are you really from? (light country music) - Oh my God, like, how do you eat with a fork and knife? That's so hard, I could never do that. Your English is great, were you adopted? - So how come you only hang out with other White people? - You must be really bad at math. - Come on guys, don't you have trouble telling White people apart? Like, I can't tell you guys apart. - Hey, look at me, I'm White. - You know, you're so unlucky you're
White because your people are just naturally fat. - Do you have a normal name too, or just your White name? (scoffs) Are your parents like, super White? - Hey, do you watch How I Met Your Mother? I'm so into White culture. - I love White accents. Hey, I eat cheese. - You know, I've been really into Western religions, lately. Like, I love how they're so angry and uptight, you know? I decorated my whole house in crosses. Who's hungry? - You're Italian? I love pasta. (grunts) A pizza pie, a pizza
pie. Your parents must have been super not strict. Did you just do whatever you wanted? Oh my God, two forks? That would look totally cute in my hair. I just love dating White guys 'cause they're so large and overbearing. - Hey you know, I'm really into White girls, just White girls. Hey, where are you going? Come on, come on, I bet you're really opinionated, probably a little dumb. - I have like, kind of round eyes so I'm practically White.

You can't stereotype Asians and then get mad when they do it back...

When I was in elementary school, my brother and I were the only non-whites in the entire school. I remember one of my friends would make her eyes go small, but I never really got offended by that. I just laughed at her, telling her she looked ridiculous doing that. Another time, when I was in fourth grade, a boy in my class asked me why my face was flat. He had asked if it was because I ran into a wall or something. I can't remember what my exact response was, but I think I said something along the lines of, "Yes. I was running and someone forgot to hold the door open for me. So I ended up running into the door and now my face is flat like a pancake..." And it's weird, because years later, in high school, I was talking to one of my classmates while walking down the hallway and as soon as the bell rang, one of the classroom doors swung open and slammed right into me. The boy that opened it felt so horrible, but me and my classmate were just laughing our heads off. Another time, when I was out of high school, I haven't ridden a bike for so many years. My mom tried to have me ride her bike, which was way too high for me. I couldn't touch the ground. And when I tried taking her advice on what to do, the bike tipped over and I face planted on cement. My entire face got messed up and some skin had peeled off and I was bleeding everywhere. My mom was freaking out and I kept trying to reassure her I was just fine. She was like, "No you're not!"

I was born and raised in Japan. Let me fix that title for you. "Asians DO say the stuff white people say". They just say it in a different language.

@DangerousFacts48

"Where are you from?" "Earth." There's no comeback to that.

@raisinrai

"Do you speak Asian?" TRIGGERED

@Morbidlynx1

I think being able to laugh about our differences is a good thing when it's not done in hate. It also takes the sting out of it when somebody really does come from a place of hate. As a white person i thought some of it was pretty funny. Some of the comments here are gold. Good stuff and much love. Keep the white people jokes coming.

@pabloacedologrono5003

This is the way of addresing these things in mu view. Through comedy, not hatred and angst. I loved it!
