Yeah, it's silly, and so is your argument. The entire point of that post is that there IS no "authentic," and people who insist on its existence are being ridiculous and ahistorical. The notion that white people only want to buy food from other white people is even more absurd, to the point that I don't even know…

How do you know that they are "repackaging it as authentic"? You don't. That's just an assumption you are making. Fusion cuisine is an actual thing, you know. Is the Japanese place that sells sushi pizza guilty of appropriating Italian culture? Is the Middle Eastern restaurant in my hood that serves a lamb kofta…

Some kid the other day told me and my friend that eating food outside of our culture was cultural appropriation and that we need to "cut it out." -_____- I'm white, our food sucks, I live in Miami, I'll be at the Cuban cafe down the street if anyone needs me.

Ummm...when an individual uses the term "discover" in that context they are not claiming to be the first person to ever try the thing in question, they are merely saying that it's new to them.

I remember an old, by which I mean 1950's, science fiction short story where a time traveler used the phrase "Anglo you down" instead of "Jew you down" (an antiquated and obviously double plus ungood expression meaning "to haggle aggressively")

Wow. I shall add this to my repertoire along with "Anglo-giver" which is a phrase I made up to replace "Indian-giver". One of my white friends got a bit pissed about it until I explained that historically it tended to be the Europeans who made promises and then reneged when those promises proved to be either costly…

It's been happening for centuries so.

Oh sure. And honestly he MAY be a complete douche. No idea.

See SCIENCE says men have two different chromosomes (XY) so they can be both sexy and smart. Women have two X chromosomes so they can only be either sexy OR smart. Science!

But it was a pretty doctor! She should have worn glasses and ponytails, cause those are the universal code for ugly!

Ah, a sexy doctor. That's obviously a different story. I assume we're going to revoke George Clooney's career as well?

It is amazing how this utterly bizarre gif conveys the perfect reaction to that bullshit comment.

But she was a sexy doctor, so really she was just a whore being Dr. Whorey and whoring herself out for big bad Hollywood who only casts slutty sluts in sex object roles and non whorey whores for smart non sexy people roles. This is science. And facts. I'm smart.

like the time she played…. a doctor?

OH NO WOMAN DID SOMETHING SEXUAL NOW THAT'S ALL SHE'LL EVER BE!!!!

Its cheekbones would make vaginal delivery impossible, though.

Or maybe you're a misogynistic asshole who thinks that being smart and sexy are mutually exclusive and we should treat women like shit for being sexy while affirming the idea that that is the only important thing about them.

"whoring"

Kat Dennings: THANK you. Im so tired of commercials that portray women as perfect busy cleaning machines and men (middle aged, white) as clueless pigs. How about we respect all people?
