Ray Lewis killed a guy

Is it racist? Because I’ll be honest, my first and MOST of my interactions with Indian-Americans were, quite literally, in Kwik-E-Marts. They all sounded very similar to Hank Azaria’s impersonation. They did have quite a few kids. They checked the boxes. Is pointing out differences racist? Because I thought

Except we aren’t talking about ALL the portrayals, just this one. Someone always steps in and says this, but no one ever wants to have the broader conversation...strange.

God forbid a guy hypes up his own show

Or, Lisa, who is rather level headed, is taking the level headed approach. “We’ll deal with it at a later point, or we not at all” followed by a blank stare.
That’s saying, “Look, we hear you. If there’s something reasonable we can do about it we will. If not sorry, I guess you won’t watch anymore”

And you’re leaving out the rest of the line “If at all” followed by a blank stare. They made a statement because that’s what you got to do these days. They won’t deal with it, and, as far as I’m concerned, there’s nothing to deal with.

I walked away thinking the doc was more upset it was a white (Italian, second generation to America if I remember right) guy doing the “typical” voice.
It’s all thoughtfully put together and very good, but I just, I don’t think its a problem? Like I tend to look at how it effects the culture. Are Indian-Americans

This right here. Every Simpson character (and a lot if not most cartoon/sitcom/movie) characters are blatant stereotypes. Homer is a fat doofus. Bart is a typical rebellious young boy. Marge is the nagging, dotting wife. Lisa is the book worm stuck up one. On and on.

Now we can say “it’s been on for 30 years, time to

Lisa is always right.
Except about veganism...

It would be the worst

If we can agree and practice this, then the world is one step closer to being better.

No, the term “cultural appropriation” is not neutral. It was never a “thing” until it came to white people “stealing” someones culture.

My greatest restaurant moment was when I ordered a burger that comes with fried jalepenos on it, pepper jack cheese and a spicy mayo.

Now dark skinned emojis are a problem?

A slight slather of mayo and relish on the bottom. Then add the weiner, mustard AND ketchup (fight me if you disagree) and some onions. That’s the best simple dog.

Slow and down the center. Easy does it.

Sure, if you try a sport that is not ubiquitous to the American experience (assuming you’re American, if not, pardon me) you would look like a fool.

this is what bugs me about Deadspin...They have 3 or 4 articles on this incident and even between staff writers they can’t get their facts straight.

Your caveat applies to friends regardless of color. It’s not special to interracial interaction so it means very little to me. True friendship is hard to come by, you’re absolutely correct there.

The day she stops stealing your fries is when you know there’s problems.
