repeat
Your secret was put in the failbar as an NS a long time back, which you must have missed. Then you resubmitted the exact same thing 3 times, and so it was put up as a repeat again and again.

Unreadable
Re: Unreadable
(Anonymous) 2012-10-06 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)Even if people are using Paint to make their secrets, they can easily make them readable.

NF 1
(Anonymous) 2012-10-06 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)IF I ever here anyone go on about 'acting white' or 'not being asian enough' I am going to shank someone. I am so tired of this bullshit.
YOU ARE A RACIST DOUCHEBAG.
Re: NF 1
(Anonymous) 2012-10-06 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)As far as I can tell, there's no real difference in how people of different races act. Everybody gets up in the morning, goes to work/school, spends time doing things they enjoy, eats, sleeps, and hangs out with their friends. Sure, exactly what they do might vary depending on culture, but at the root of it, there's no real way to "act white" or "act Asian." :|
Re: NF 1
(Anonymous) 2012-10-06 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)This is why I prefer western/eastern (as in hemispheres) to white or asian. That makes it about culture and not about race. There are asian people I know that are extremely "western" in thought and action, and white people I know who are very "eastern" in thought and action. What you are is race, how you act or approach things is culture.
Somebody being from a western culture doesn't make them white.

N!S 2
(Anonymous) 2012-10-06 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)Now, I'll admit I'm white so I could very well be missing something here but...um. Honestly? I've known plenty of people who weren't white who acted like that, but were still very much whatever ethnicity they were a member of. It just seems to be a *western* culture thing, which...really, isn't the same thing.
Re: N!S 2
(Anonymous) 2012-10-07 12:05 am (UTC)(link)As an Asian person, it's highly offensive to say we're 'acting white' when we don't act like a complete over-top stereotype. There is no such thing as acting 'black', 'white', or 'asian' unless you believe that racist stereotypes are real. There is only culture. And being part of Western culture doesn't change your race.
Next thing you know we'll be criticized for being too light-skinned or our eyes aren't the right shape. Oh wait, they already do that!
NS2
(Anonymous) 2012-10-07 12:00 am (UTC)(link)ns 2
(Anonymous) 2012-10-07 01:29 am (UTC)(link)But I can see the white guy complaint, as that's also what her writing staff seems to be full of.
I could not get into the series because it just seemed to be a series full of Mindy being really into herself, which worked on the Office when I thought it was just her character, but now I feel like that's just her coming through.
It's just not a good comedy, she's not acting white though, she's being herself.
Re: ns 2
(Anonymous) 2012-10-07 02:47 am (UTC)(link)Yeah, that's kinda offensive to mixed race people and interracial couples. It's not like we're over-represented in the media... Or at all.
Re: ns 2
(Anonymous) 2012-10-07 05:20 am (UTC)(link)Re: ns 2
(Anonymous) - 2012-10-07 07:28 (UTC) - ExpandRe: ns 2
(Anonymous) 2012-10-07 07:31 am (UTC)(link)So while it's great that Mindy is the star and we're getting mixed romance options, why is everyone she surrounded by white?
As anon above said, there are mixed couples that don't involve a white person.
