I was thinking this would have been better if Fey was playing a "Greek" instead of an Albanian, since you know, that's actually what part of her heritage is and can come with some legitimacy that way. But I guess people wouldn't have thought it as funny since people probably know more about Greece and know its a…

Well all I can say is that today at work I wore this gorgeous Rous Sereysothea piece, then I wore a $8,000,000 Forever21 ball gown. Then I left and went to my favourite meth dealer and bought a vintage Chanel LHR nightie, and have my eye on this incredible Monica Lewinsky bag AND a gorgeous coat from the Paleolithic…

I'll just say asking people to "guess" where you are from when they ask you that question always seems to me to be a little rude and condescending. Either they already have some sort of idea of where you're from but don't want to assume, or they just don't know and are interested in the answer. Southerners in general…

The ironic thing is I used have a relationship with a Somali guy (who had to flee on foot from Mogadishu into the countryside with his 6 year old brother when the government collapsed) and he was one of the sweetest and most sincere guys I've ever been with.

Oh no! Watching episodes of Hoarders is the only thing that pushes me to throw away crap I have laying around my apartment. After watching an episode I immediately go through my closet and throw out junk.

Yeah, I thought this was "meh, okay" until I got to the one about Somalia. No matter how much of a joke it is, making fun of people living through a civil war and terrorism doesn't seem right. The jokes aren't even that funny or original.

I know this is a joke but the one about Somalia is very mean spirited and ignorant. Obviously parts of Somalia are having issues right now, but making lame jokes about it seems very ignorant and juvenile. Not all of Somalia is in the civil war and the northern part of the country (Somaliland) is relatively stable and…

Well that's just the whole issue..... English isn't their first language and some of them might not be able to speak or understand it at all. Conveying subtleties of emotions and giving emotional cues via written language is one of the more difficult aspects of language and usually only happens after intense sustained…

I've heard similar things too, specifically about African-Americans who claim Native ancestry, that it was a way of explaining their "mixed" features without acknowledging the coercion that was involved in master/slave relationships during the days of slavery.

That's how it's always been with the black side of my family too. Although we know we know we have European and Indigenous ancestors, we've always been "officially" black. The article says that the Census only started in 1990 so there has only been two Censuses since then, so the "jump" in understandable in now people…

"Multiracial America" is nothing new. There has been "race mixing" between all sorts of ethnicities since the arrival of Europeans to the Americas 500 years ago. In many ways the history of the US is a history of "race mixing," whether it was European men and Indigenous women in the 1600's, European men and African…

siiiitttttttt dooowwwwwnnnnnn!!!!!!

I can personally attest that half of the female (and male too, if that's your thing) Brazilian population has a better ass than Jessica Biel.

Sabrina Sato is a comedienne and is known for acting foolish or ditzy and playing up her regional accent. This is all just part of her schtick. She knew exactly what she was doing.

You are 100% correct. Sabrina Sato is a comedienne and part of her schtick is acting foolish and her regional accent, which she is clearly using when she speaks English here. She knew exactly what she was doing and it worked very very well.

I had to star this. I'm in a very similar situation and know exactly what you're talking about; I live in Oakland and I'm from the South and have a pretty obvious Southern accent and always get asked questions about both.

I was so excited with anticipation... ready to laugh or be scared.... and then..... nothing....

You are exactly right.

I think in Britain the general consensus is that they will "breed" the Black of the UK.

I'm not sure to what extent "racism" by Americans is really the issue anymore. Younger Americans (which a lot of entertainment and advertizes target), seem to have swung the pendulum completely the other way and think interracial relationships are the greatest thing on Earth. Obviously, there is still a segment of…
