What a Bunch of Racists!
Today was a typical weekend day, spent sitting around watching television. While watching Cartoon Network, I saw a commercial for this toy. At face value, it looks like a decent product. Kids need to learn, and learning aids are quite useful for making learning more entertaining, but did they really have to make this toy so stereotypical? Just because Pandas hail from Asia doesn’t mean a Panda has to be used to impart pearls of wisdom to children. They even gave the bear the same nearsighted ailment that plagues most Asians. I bet the box has a warning that says, “This product is only for use with the subjects of mathematics, science, and history. It is not intended for teaching grammar.” What else would you expect from a company that also makes this and names it Jade? This doll will love you long time.

Pandas are also on the verge of extinction due to sexual ineptitue.
Hmmm..

Yet another reason why I find it difficult to identify with Asians. I don’t wear glasses or contacts, I am not lactose intolerant, I don’t turn red when drinking, and you don’t make love to me. You sit back and feel the G-Forces. I could teach the Pandas a thing or two.

well, you might not identify with asians, but other people will identify you as asian no matter how you dress, talk, or act.
so, it’s up to you to make love to every single one of those people and prove to them you’re not as asian as they think you are.
oh, and you stole that quote from hom.. er.. max powers. haha, nice.
