jeeesus, just that preview image is more than enough.

these people have law degrees

holy fuck


Old_Zircon - 2013-12-04

Of course these people have law degrees.

Nice to see Chris-Chan off social security.


EvilHomer - 2013-12-04

Punchy Sonichu is very strong, and he is full of random, good humor. He was raised in a Dojo by the masterful Shinabe. His favorite anime is Samurai Pizza Cats!

Here's the stuff about the threat of legal action against at least one blog:

http://www.popehat.com/2013/12/02/quasi-literate-racist-asshol e-jim-deberry-of-definitive-television-threatens-to-sue-above-the- law-for-calling-his-video-racist/

Also, on the Definitive Television channel page (which features a photo of the above "Asian" guy), they write:

"email info@deinfinitivetelevision.com if you'd like to see your comment, suggestion, or hate email read on an upcoming video."

That last bit sounds like the start of a hole with no bottom to me.

They must have a lot of time on their hands.


That guy - 2013-12-09

....even before I read that link I knew there was about a 0% chance of winning a libel suit. But it's a good read.


boner - 2013-12-04

and those feckin' Greeks.


memedumpster - 2013-12-04

God damn, what a racist piece of shit.


ashtar. - 2013-12-04

Read the youtube 'about' section.


SteamPoweredKleenex - 2013-12-04

That's a double down with what I'm assuming is a thinly-veiled extortion threat against their client.

I wonder how smart it is to call out a law firm like that when you're not a lawyer yourself?


snothouse - 2013-12-04

Here's what blows me away: There wasn't even a racist pun or joke attempted. It was literally just "Let's dress him up like a Chinaman, that alone is hilarious".


DavidBowiesLuckyTennisBall - 2013-12-04

Yeah, I was also wondering about the connection. Why Chinese? Do they get a lot of copyright infringements or something?


hammsangwich - 2013-12-04

Well, they did shoehorn in a "Confucius say...".


boner - 2013-12-04

Did they rent the outfit from a racist costume shop?


That guy - 2013-12-09

I don't think it's the costume. I think it's the grotesque and practically subhuman caricature.

Then again, he does pull the Asian stereotype in a direction it hasn't been pulled since WWII: toward imbecilic.

So if you're Asian and you're feeling oppressed by the 'intelligent' aspect of the stereotype, please send this man a nice thank you note.


chumbucket - 2013-12-04

Feels like a test of social endurance.


BorrowedSolution - 2013-12-04

Oh, sweetie, no...


Seven Arts/H8 Red - 2013-12-04

'This character was inspired in the same prerogative or edgy vein as'

That is the most truthful malapropism I've seen in advertising.


Caminante Nocturno - 2013-12-04

I wish I could see the look on the cameraman's face.


Prickly Pete - 2013-12-04

I imagine he was an Asian who quickly disappeared off the scene, much like the black engineer who was recording "Franklin Comes Alive".


The God of Biscuits - 2013-12-04

When I think of car accidents, my mind always jumps to racist caricatures.


Ursa_minor - 2013-12-04

HAhahahahahahah, holy shit.


BHWW - 2013-12-04

It turns out they've issued an apology for the ad, quote "Ah so, vely solly." unquote which was then followed by a five second silence and then someone shouting PSYCH! amidsts a lot of giggling.


Senator_Unger - 2013-12-04

I just want to know who their target demographic is.


Sanest Man Alive - 2013-12-05

Racist shitheeled crackers, if I had to guess. Or really, anyone but those lousy, squinty-eyed-no-can-drive, peepee-in-coke-joking, chinky ching-chong Chinese churls!


yogarfield - 2013-12-05

raiden put on a few.


Jet Bin Fever - 2013-12-09

At least he didn't wear a fake set of buckteeth. That's about the only thing that could've made this even worse.
