Epic Meal Time - Not Safe For Vegetarians
ackblom12:
I was thinking more along the lines that this is an obvious parody of a show with super strong (even if they themselves are parodying it) bro culture funnies.
KvP:
Also, vegans are strident.
jwhouk:
I'll just stick with Man v. Food, thanks.
Nodaisho:
Oh, believe me. A lot of the videos in the OP, it will be man vs food in a few hours.

--- Quote from: Nodaisho on 11 Jan 2011, 18:49 ---Wait, what? I missed something. I could see the Vietnamese part (although, being American, I took it to be a joke about the Vietnam war and having to do terrible things). Where was the ethnic slur against chinese people?
edit: Wait, you mean the part about male chickens? The comment aimed at the Chinese government? Tell me something, how do you fit through doors with that chip on your shoulder?
--- End quote ---
The video made no reference to the Chinese government at all, but simply "China", the land where I was born*. Since nobody makes jokes about mere geographical expressions, I read the remark as aimed at Chinese people. I read the Vietnam remark as no more than a standard white-person gibe about East Asian dietary habits (the Vietnam War never occurred to me). Basically the guy was simply using Asian countries as metaphors for something bad. And you have a problem with my attitude? Try maintaining a sense of humour when you face a lifetime of "funny" remarks like that about your national origin, or native culture. Make like a turducken, and get stuffed!
*But no, I don't kill babies, chickens, bunnies, or even eat meat.
