Is “loh shee fun” food first or of Chinese origin first? Two friends hash it out, mediated by liberal with no Asian values.
A: Let’s have loh shee fun.
B: You are so racist!
A: What?!?
B: Ya man… How can you say that?
A: But… but… I do want to eat loh shee fun. You can eat whatever you all want, ok?
B: Ahh… but you mentioned loh shee fun didn’t you? That reflects your mindset!
A: Wow. Ok, ok, let’s have pizza then.
B: Cheezh! Now you are worse, penjajah mentality!
A: Hello, pizza is talian, not British!
B: Doesn’t matter. They are orang putih food.
C tried to mediate between his friends.
C: Guys, relax. It’s just food. Can’t we just see that loh shee fun is food first and of Chinese origin second? Pizza is food first and of Italian origin second?
B: Okay, A tell me, to you is loh shee fun food first or Chinese first?
A: Er… well, it is Chinese food?
B: See you are a bigoted racist! Why can’t you say it is food of Chinese origin? Why do you say “Chinese” first, then “food” – “Chinese Food”?
C: Guys, can I suggest…
Both A and B snapped at him and said together:
A & B: C, you stay out of this. You are a liberalist with no Asian values!
Peace!
