Our very own Nhu-Y Ngo gives some senior wisdom for the masses! The Blaaag will soon have these as well for our graduating '09ers. They will inevitably be more yellowbrown-centric and cracked out.

Some key references are elaborated upon below:

Acronyms - Vietnamese Students Association, Asian Pacific American Awareness Month, Asian American Alliance Political Committee, and Advocacy Coalition. All groups which are, I believe, The Shit.

Little brother - He has a love/hate relationship with chips and is perhaps unhinged in time.

The Solomon R. Chao Memorial Party Room - Camp-out room in Butler beginning Fall 2006, last witnessed Spring 2008. All Blaaagers and AAA/PC members have partaken in its festivities at some point in time. Important characteristics: Pepperidge Farm cookies, Ryan's verses on the whiteboard, Facebook Scrabble, smells of ass and strawberries.

There are more, but this reminds me of May Lin's Senior Wisdom back when I was just a little frosh.

What? How did you get an entire entry devoted to your event, Game of Love, on Bwog? Which member is connected to the Bwog staff that we don't know about? Could it be EC 1412's infamous Tony Gong (who's not really in AAA, but is peripherally connected)? Could it be a friend of USCC Rep Evan Omi? Mystery! Maybe I'm reading too far into this. After all, Bwog does take requests for special entries. That's how this damn thing got out, anyway. Also, oops, I think Game of Love is over. Way for me to be a prompt blogger.

Bwog, on a NSOP art event:

Tuesday: "After Hours At The Met," a private party and viewing of three galleries - Egyptian Art, Roman and Greek Art, and Art of Africa, Oceania, and the Americas. Budding activists looking to get a head start will no doubt protest the lack of Asian Art.

We had some beef with them earlier for misrepresenting some of our advertising (Asha), so this will be brief. While we Blaaagers may respect criticism of "activism" (what a static term, some might think) as sometimes critics ourselves, we don't respect people who deal in it before understanding the issues to begin with. Fair representation at the Met? Who cares? A funnier joke could have involved an issue "activists" actually give a shit about.

Actually, budding activists probably will not... those galleries aren't completely saturated with "white" art.

We're not sure what's more strange about the AAA poster: [not shown above, click link below...] that they promote their event with a picture of Calvin Sun et al., or that they're touting Tokyo Pop as "Columbia's premier nightclub/lounge."

Wow.

Oh Bwog, we ask you to answer to call of our oppression as Asian Americans under someone who breakdances for cool points. (And cool points he shall get...) Please stand in solidarity as we continue our tireless campaigns against racism, apathy, raging Facebook popularity, and spikey hair. Help us end our fight under the unbearable heat of the Sun.

Maybe come to some of our events? Get to know some arguably cooler people? ... A good thing to do before you make out our entire group to be the Gundam suit of just one man. (That's right - you know the reference.)

Sometimes, though, (maybe this isn't the right time) we like to point out the irony of infamy... You rail against someone's popularity, but can't quite help yourself, can you?

And lastly: you're very welcome.

EDIT: All in good fun, Bwog! We hope that you feel the love from wherever you are.

This will be part of a series, and will probably not end as long as the blogosphere exists.

Let me direct you to this comment on the Bwog. It doesn't matter the article it appeared under.

An (asian) student had an open container outside Broadway. NYPD rolled by, had a discussion with student, discussion became heated, student was handcuffed aggressively and thrown onto the ground, crowd assembled, NYPD officers called for backup to deal with crowd, several cars arrived, officers emerged to keep crowd away, lots of yelling, several racist comments were made by police (personal favorite: "had too much sake tonight?) Spectator was informed last night but has remained strangely silent on the issue.

Below:

As for the racist comment, I'm a little unclear how you heard this comment, since the cops were keeping people away. Regardless, prior to the arrest it is doubtful profiling occurred. Perhaps somewhere in New York City cops profile against Asians, but I would bet in the majority of asian-NYPD relations, racism works in Asians' favor, and ignorant cops assume that Asians are going about their gentle Buddha-tofu-meditation authority-loving business. Doesn't excuse the potential racism, but hey, are we really surprised at this point that the chaps with guns are willing to crack some skulls and make racist remarks? Well we shouldn't be.

If you want to be outraged at authority, that's cool, or if you want to be outraged at racism, that's cool. Hell, if you want to be enraged at both at the same time, that's cool too. But I would suggest not getting authoritarian tactics and racism mixed up in your own mind since it allows you two modes of completely separate arguments against the cops. Although both the abuse of authority and racism may have been displayed simultaneously, the phenomena are not intrinsically related since white cops will bust rich white boy heads from time to time. Just a helpful hint in case you ever have to go to trial with it.

All of this is pretty interesting (and pretty racist!) commentary on race relations in law enforcement, but to boot...

Dude, the only legitimate claim Asians can have of being discriminated against is by Columbia admissions.

Thanks a lot. As for the police incident, AAA will investigate...

We still contend, however, that racism escapes no one. Not the educated, not the worldly, not the intelligent, not the Ivy-Leaguer, not the New Yorker, not the person of color ... it goes on. Bwog comments get pretty ridiculous anyway, but here we still see real products of human thought. Keep that in mind.
