A video by Mixed Company of Yale, an a cappella group, released a spin on Beyonce's 'Single Ladies', entitled 'Single Asians.'

One of the verses goes something like this:

'At the restaurant
I'll taste your sauce
And you can slurp my sushi.
I like it raw,
So bring it on,
And me love you long time.'

Etymology:

The phrase "me love you long time" and the accompanying "me so horny" originates from the Stanley Kubrick film Full Metal Jacket. In the movie, UK actress Papillon Soo Soo (credited as "Da Nang Hooker") speaks the lines:

Hey baby, you got girlfriend Vietnam? Me so horny. Me love you long time.

So there you have it. According to IvyGate who contacted the group, Mixed Company at Yale feels no qualms about posting this video. Full of endless (often derrogatory) sterotypes.

Jen and Diana at Disgrasian schools us again via YouTube, this week in the art of not driving women away after a date. "To All the Young Dudes" Much needed non-misogynistic dating advice, especially considering our other Asian American offerings of late. Enjoy.

... then blow a kiss at YouTube. I caught these on camera - too bad I only did this for only three artists. Still, here they are: Magnetic North, El Gambina, and Koba with DJ Boo. This is all from Taiyo Na's release party at Sunday March 16th's Sulu Series.

Magnetic North (We later saw Direct at Kenka's)

Koba & DJ Boo

If you are and feel like killing yourself, then watch this:



The parts where the long-haired dude goes "MOOOOMMMM" and then dances in the background are absolutely hysterical.

The Internets

1. We are developing a legitimate website. Check it out here.

2. Speaking of the Intertubez...



(Write for us, Mimi! The Blaaag is waiting for more of your soulful words slash song lyrics. Don't go on tearin' up our hearts!)

Hilarity! A YouTube video called, "Asian American Rejects", detailing the epic adventures of a rejected boy chasing after... someone. This is not what we mean by APA empowerment.

If you're still confused, this has nothing to do with anything. Just thought I'd share the complete, ROFL'ing randomness of another hilarious reappropriation. (The Blaaag's posts were also becoming too text-heavy for my sleep-deprived neurosis.)
