Agreed. The racist stereotype is bad, but the girl waking up to discover she had sex with somebody she wouldn't have even spoken to if she was coherent is particularly troubling, as was her reaction.

 

It was better as Some Kind of Wonderful.

 

I forget: Was he tough and ruthless or rough and toothless?

 

Paraquat-
I agree with you but I don't think it was necessarily made for young men. As a teen I could not relate to it in any way.
The Duk Dong actor, who was from Utah, has said he dropped exaggerated Asian accents for his future movie roles.

 

Gosh, I wonder how many GOPers have been targeted like this? (Aside from the ones who spent the Fourth of July in Moscow, of course.)

Not to excuse that, but when they wake up, it's the boy who asks if anything happened. It's somewhat ambiguous, not clear that anything actually did.

 

Congrats, Trumpists. This is your tribe.

How long until that July 4 trip gets exposed as something nefarious?

 

I’m so confused. I heard on this very board that Trump’s summit with NK was a huge success.

A. I'm not sure why you think I'm obligated to reply to every hypothetical question Justin sends my way. If there was anything criminal about the Trump Tower meeting, I'd expect Mueller to bring charges as a result. He hasn't. Nothing has leaked out to indicate there was any criminality, or that Mueller is going to bring charges regarding that meeting. And, I haven't read a single good article that spells out what the criminality might even be.

2. It's hilarious to me that you would raise the plagiarism issue again, and try to use it as a punch line against me. A prominent poster not only did commit plagiarism, but he basically admitted to it. Yet, you and slacker came out of it looking as bad, or worse, than the poster who committed the act. That you don't see that is embarrassing.

 

That is true. If I remember correctly, she was fairly certain that they had sex. Both were underage and got drunk to the point they had no clue about their actions. Neither of them was capable of giving consent and there were no consequences.

I get that it was supposed to just be dumb fun and it was a long time ago, but we've been having these conversations about putting things in a modern context. I put this story in the context of my own teenager, who just turned 15, and it's not so funny.
