    lmao, the chicken next to general tso and Mao got me.

    there’s an onion video floating around as a “Behind the Pen” with Kelly about his “process” with visual examples of his drafts and editorial changes.

    basically a gag is that he is a billion times more cartoonishly racist and stupid than you would think, and he goes back and forth with the editor who makes him tone it down in order to get published. it’s outrageously oniony.

    I gotta acknowledge the effort that went into mixing stereotypically Japanese and Chinese elements with just the right amount of cultural ignorance.

      I believe the comic is depicting a Chinese restaurant in the US. Chinese food restaurants in the US often sell Japanese food or elements of Japanese cuisine because Japanese restaurants were shut down during the WWII Japanese internment camps. US Chinese food restaurants started selling some Japanese foods to fill the market gap and many of the Chinese food restaurants still continue that.

        All the Chinese places where I live are owned by Koreans. You can tell when they have bulgogi at the bottom of the menu.

        Also pretty much all Mexican places where I live are owned by Salvadorian. You can tell when they have papusa on the menu and it’s better than the tacos.

            South Park is an “adult” animated cartoon created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, two libertarians who have a “everything is dumb and caring about things is stupid” approach to politics and life in general. South Park often met controversy for its crude humour, and as a result, was very popular with teenage boys who uncritically adopted the smug nihilist attitudes of its creators. You could think of it kind of like the proto-Rick and Morty if that helps.

            They did episodes with extremely racist characteristic sterotypes of a Chinese resturant owner and Japanese owner fueding with each other in like a turf war. Their pronunciation of their “City” themed dishes sounded like “Shitty” like Shitty Kung Pow. Shitty chicken. It was also mirroring the Japanese and Chinese fueding historically. One would think they’d be allies being practical neighbors but alas… and in one episode they did a differences between Chinese and Japanese mocking how Amerikkkans think all Asians are the same.

            I won’t link them but you can find the relevant clips on YT.

    it’s me except of course even takeout chinese has never been but a splurge in this life.

    Before anyone @'s me, I think there should be 15-min-city-esque big wok sites where a few guys with healthcare and safety nets provide 300 chinese takeouts at a time veganly and then if you want you can order meat on top
