Not even, necessarily! I’m Japanese and a lot of our seasoning combos are pretty simple—some combination of soy sauce, sake, dashi stock (ok that’s cheating bc it’s got all sorts of flavors cooked into it, but for most people the concern is just buying the stock powder), garlic or ginger, maybe some mirin or other…

I think she was demonstrating that she’s cooking for a racist family, but ok

I’ve been put off ever since the clip from her show where she made “Asian chicken wings” and all her male family members were all like “ewwwwwww, what kind of sick freak would eat these,” and it turned out the whole thing was a joke because of course Ree Drummond wouldn’t make her family eat anything “Asian.” And, of c…

I mean, besides the *gestures at the whole trailer and Louis CK’s entire existence*, this movie is about the kind of white guy who names his daughter China. Pass.

OH MY GOD

I love all of the songs! I didn’t realize until I was older that the singing voice of Josie is Kay Handley of Letters to Cleo. (AKA the band from the end of 10 Things I Hate About You!)

Wait, are you... Mr. Moviefone!??!?!

‘80s teen movies? No way. If by “good” you mean “way more rapey,” maybe...

Josie and the Pussycats is fun as hell, and way way way more clever than anyone was willing to give it credit for back when it came out. I love that damn movie.

IMDB sez Joel’s title on STTC was “magic consultant,” which is A++.

If MST3k’s Frank Conniff isn’t exec. story editor (like he was on the ‘90s show, as I recently learned from rewatching a bunch of the ‘90s episodes), I’m not interested.

Hulu has the full run of STTC online. I put it on for my dog while I’m at work, and am often distracted by it on the way out or when I’m back in the house. STTC is 2017 doggy and doggy-mommy approved.

Given that the point of Lost In Translation was “white people are the most interesting people in Japan,” this is pretty spot-on IMO.

I wish every white person who comes to Japan to shoot videos that make themselves seem more interesting would turn out to be a ghost

Yeah, but then the male lead in the movie would be a Pakistani taxi driver, and just imagine the marketing they’d come up with for that.

I used to see a big old Casamigos truck pull up to the liquor store near my house, and Rande and George are both on there, but not Hans Moleman Mike Meldman. He must be the Karen!

Now is Sting the band with Phil Collins or is that GWAR?

All white boys sound same ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

Ok but was Ariana Grande hailed as some sort of genius for recording an album that was blatantly and flagrantly a track-for-track knockoff of someone else’s album
