He didn't win the Internet. He damn well created it. The amount of win here is beyond measure. Trolling at its finest.

I saw this the other day when this site's very own Andy Chalk linked it through Twitter. And it was as amazing then as it is now. Full of win, and awesomesauce. I want the awesomesauce this guy oozes on my pancakes right now, so I may become as awesome as he is...
She deserves all the fire she's bringing because she brought it on herself. The song was also wonderful. I loved it.
1) She's fucking retarded. It's a bit of casual racism that hasn't got any serious hurt behind it (I think). Like when I was looking round student houses there was one landlord who said it's a nightmare having asian students because they cook so many stir frys and eat it all over the house and it stinks out the house a shitload (damn those smelly asians...). Then I mentioned my favourite thing to cook was stir frys and we had a good laugh about it. The guy isn't racist, it's just a slightly ingnorant cultural viewpoint.
That said, it's probably very wrong of me to find "ching chong ling long ting tong" so funny.
2) That song is fuckin' EPIC.

1. If she's truly being honest about what's going on, I don't think she deserves all that much crap for what she's saying. Is it racist? Yes. Is it true? Probably. Having seen howNpPro93 said:
Does this mean we all need to be assholes about it? No, it doesn't. I can draw from a similar experience where an asian student (I think he was Korean, we have a lot of Korean immigrants here, not that there's anything wrong with that because a lot of them are very nice) transfered to our University. His parents actually came over for a few weeks and were doing laundry in our machines. It was awkward to have to ask them not to. You know what though? They were doing their laundry at the same time because A) They didn't have a washer and dryer -and- B) Their son had never done the laundry before because it was his mother's job and he needed help learning. So, yeah, knock out two birds with one stone, right? If you're going to put quarters into someone's washing machine, it might as well be the school where your kid goes, right? Regardless of how awesome that geasture was from his parents, they still were refused access to our laundry rooms thereafter. However, what we did do is help that student out with his laundry when he needed it and he eventually learned how to do it. The family started doing their laundry at the laundromat (where it cost exactly the same) and the student made some new friends and learned how to do his laundry.
So yeah. No need to be racist, it's just sometimes certain customs like, say, your family functioning as a well oiled unit and having specific jobs is just a concept not as well known in other cultures. For them, it was just how life went. They had always been together and they needed eachother to function. Did it all work out, though? Well, yeah, because the people around the family weren't complete jerks that demanded complete reform and the family were open to change and realised that things worked differently here. This is what we should be striving for. The ability to adapt our culture to that which we live in while retaining the values we cherrish most. It's not hard, it just takes a little openmindedness.
In the end, I agree that what those students are doing is wrong. They shouldn't be talking on phones in a library and their families shouldn't be over-running the dorms just to do their daily chores. The dorms/off-campus apartments are for the students, not the families. Whether you agree or not, well, it's her vlog, she can speak her mind. I don't think she deserves all the downvotes she got, I think she just put the video out at a very hyper-sensitive time towards asians in general with what Japan is enduring, most likely to get more hits on the video. Any press is good press, I suppose.
2. The song is pretty awesome. I chuckled a little. Is it well informed and speak a higher form of intelligence? No, dude's a dumb shit for being a sheep and just giving into what the concencus is without really looking into what that girl is saying. Again, I understand the entire basis of her argument is really "he said, she said" but if she speaks the truth then those students and their families really are out of line. That behaviour shouldn't be tolerated in any student and their families, whether they're black, asian, white, native american, latino or whatever (except purple people, they can go to hell!). It was a cheap stab at asians at a time where asians are a hot button topic. Big deal. Get over your race. Be the bigger man and not talk about it because making a song just gets her what she wants: more hits!
1.) I was slightly offended by her remarks, but meh. I'm ignorant to most American culture, as are most Americans to mine. However, she generalises way too much in her video and makes it sound that ALL Asians have their parents at their apartments constantly.
2.) Pure win, that video is.

That reply is perfect, tbh,if only more people, instead of responding to hate with hate, use smarts and wit, and try to be funny about it. She'll look even dafter, and you'll maintain the high ground.

Yeah, I remember I was in a Cafe in Manchester after I arrived and I was talking in Arabic with my sister and we were laughing and playing around and a man in the cafe said "We don't do that in England". Another time I recall was at school in Manchester, I stood too close and was too touchy with a few authority figures. Something that is very normal in Algeria is touching people and being very close to one another whilst conversing.
So I do think it is fair of me to say that I have definitely annoyed people through my culture. I can kind of empathise with this girl.
(ching chong) she makes me want to clothesline her and shave her head.
(ling long) that guy is amazing and if given the chance I would make sweet sweet love to him for being so awesome.

Yeah that's got to be one of the best replies I've seen on youtube to such a video, the most amazing part is that guy has actual talent, for both, it seems singing/playing as well as mixing an editing and for that he win's my respect.
Didn't you know? Only white people can be racist.Sir John the Net Knight said:
Yeah, right here.Sir John the Net Knight said:
I mean, I watched the original video and she was mainly talking about just standard manners in a library. Though I somehow doubt she would have made a video if it was a white person who did it, but I doubt she was intentionally trying to be racist.
Regardless, that song was awesome.
Ching-chang-chong indeed.
I don't think she needs as much hate as she's getting. She's not too bright looking and though she is a bit racist, who isn't? Americans hate the French, Britains hate Americans, ect, ect. and she's just saying she hates when people talk in a library when she's doing finals. Had it been an Irish guy or a Hispanic guy she probably would have done the same thing. But on the other hand, this is is pretty funny. I don't think he's "showing love" but he is doing a good job of making fun of her.
