[HOUSE MUSIC CONTINUES]
-
All right.
-
How you doing? All right.
-
All right, look at you,
you filthy downloaders.
-
Look at this audience, man.
-
Everybody. This is cool, man.
-
Everybody.
-
We got- clearly we got
some Asians in the house. That's-
-
I saw all
the Honda Civics in the parking lot.
-
I knew you were here.
-
I thought they were shooting
Fast and The Furious Part 3 or something.
-
Oh, man, and the brown bastards.
Look at you, huh?
-
All right.
-
There's a lot of closed motels in town
right now, I tell you that. There's-
-
White people, how you doing?
White folks, good to see you.
-
All right, a white guy with a brown girl.
-
Good job, buddy, huh?
-
Her parents must be so happy.
-
Ha ha.
-
There's a brown man
with a white woman.
-
Nice, see? Balance.
-
That's what I'm talking about.
He's living the American dream.
-
Or at least the Indian dream.
-
[INDIAN ACCENT]
"If I go to America and I get white woman,"
-
"I'm ahead of the game."
-
Latinos in the house?
Where the Latinos at?
-
All right, all six of you.
-
Good. All right.
-
I don't know how the hell we're in California, only six Latinos showed up.
-
And black people?
-
You clap again. Look at that, hey.
-
You got both.
You're black and Latino.
-
Your credit must suck.
-
You're... I just can't...
-
Oh, man.
-
It's funny, when I say 'Asian,'
-
especially in America,
when I say 'Asian,'
-
people automatically
picture in their head,
-
[IMITATES CHINESE MUSIC]
-
Which is messed up
because India is part of Asia,
-
and we don't get the same credit.
-
When I say 'Asian'
people don't go...
-
[IMITATES INDIAN MUSIC]
-
We're Asian too, man.
-
When God was making Asians,
he made two types of Asians.
-
And you guys
got first choice on looks.
-
And you fucked us on the deal.
-
"Yeah, well, we'll take eyes."
-
"You guys can have noses and hair."
-
My people are greedy,
-
"We heard two! We got two!
That's a good deal, two!"
-
"Noses and hair!"
-
We didn't know it was gonna be
big noses and body hair.
-
That's a shit deal!
-
We're a hairy race of people, man.
-
It's hot as hell in India,
and we're hairy.
-
Who the hell came up with that deal?
-
I think the God
that was making Indian people
-
was having some sort of
practical joke with all the other Gods.
-
He was like "Hey, guys,
come here and watch this. Watch this."
-
"Buddha, put down the drink.
Come here. Come here."
-
"Ok, look."
-
"I'm going to take these people here."
-
"And put them
in the hottest place in the world."
-
"And just for fun,"
-
"I'll cover them with hair."
-
It's hot and we're hairy.
-
Men and women.
-
Indian girls getting mad,
pulling down their sleeves,
-
"I hate this son of a bitch!"
-
It's OK nowadays
that chicks have hair,
-
Nowadays chicks can take care of it,
you know what I mean?
-
Chicks have hair they don't want
nowadays, they can get rid of it.
-
All kinds of hair removing methods as,
-
There's waxing, there's electrolysis,
there's threading, there's...
-
laser hair removal.
-
They have hair they don't want now,
[IMITATES ELECTROLYSIS]
-
It's gone!
-
They're removing it
from their assholes now.
-
How hairy were
your assholes before this?
-
You know
they used to do in the 80s,
-
when chicks have hair they didn't want?
-
They used to bleach it.
-
"Sweetheart, we don't have a problem
with the color of your mustache."
-
"It's not like
the blond goatie looks better."
-
And the Asians are not hairy at all.
-
Full head of hair on their head,
and nothing on their body.
-
Very rarely do you see a bald Asian.
-
Well, unless they shave it off,
you know what I mean? But-
-
Oh, man.
-
When I say 'Asian,' you know
what's funny? When I say 'Asian,'
-
people automatically think Chinese.
-
People go
"Chinese, yes, Asians, Chinese."
-
"That's all they are.
All the Asians are Chinese."
-
(CROWD YELLS "OOOH")
-
Look at them,
yelling out their last name.
-
So proud, that's cool. But, uh...
-
But it's funny.
-
People do think
all Asians are Chinese.
-
That's what they think.
"All Asians are Chinese."
-
"They all speak Chinese, look Chinese.
That's what they are, that's what they do."
-
That's not the case.
-
There's so many
different types of Asians.
-
You know what I mean?
-
Sure, you may not be able
to tell right away,
-
by looking at Asian people,
-
You could take an educated guess.
-
Sometimes certain things stand out,
-
and you go "Oh, I know
what kind of Asian you are."
-
But if you really want to learn the differences between different Asian groups,
-
you can tell by when they speak English.
That's how you can tell.
-
Now, just to get a feel
for the Asians that are in the room tonight,
-
Um, do we have any
Vietnamese people here tonight?
-
Vietnamese people?
-
All right, like one guy
hiding upstairs too.
-
[IMITATES VIETNAMESE]
Tou mah!
-
Any Koreans in the house?
Koreans in the house?
-
All right, that's
two closed dry cleaners.
-
Nice. That's-
-
Filipinos?
-
Oh, yeah, I see you right there.
-
I knew you guys were
Filipino right away
-
'cause you keep staring at the microphone,
-
like there's gonna be
karaoke after the show.
-
I can see it too.
-
"I hope this Bombay
hurries up with the show please, 'cause..."
-
"I want to get up there and sing."
-
[IMITATES TAGALOG]
"Utahkeenah, hurry!"
-
And Chinese people,
where you at? Chinese folks?
-
Nice. That's good, man.
-
You can tell by when
Asian groups are speaking English.
-
That's how you can tell
where they're from.
-
I'll give you an example.
-
Vietnamese people,
-
you can tell when
they're speaking English,
-
you can tell they're Vietnamese
'cause when they speak English,
-
they speak it really fast.
-
Like they know it.
-
But they end up
speaking English so fast,
-
that it ends up sounding like
Vietnamese all over again.
-
I got cussed out
by this Vietnamese guy,
-
this what he says to me, he goes,
-
[IMITATES VIETNAMESE ACCENT]
"Fuck you, ok, you fucking blow job!"
-
He called me a fucking blow job.
-
Have you ever
been called a blow job before?
-
Do you realize if
somebody calls you a blow job,
-
there is not one good comeback...
-
There's nothing you can say
that will sound cool.
-
"You fucking blow job!"
-
"Yeah?"
-
"So are you."
-
That's why I like different cultures,
you know.
-
Different cultures,
-
different words mean
different things to them in English,
-
and in their language are,
you know what I mean?
-
Like, I'm from Toronto.
-
In Toronto there's
a Vietnamese restaurant,
-
called Pho Phuc Lai.
-
P, H, O, P, H, U, C,
-
L, A, I.
-
Pho Phuc Lai.
-
I used to call them when I was a kid,
-
just to have the guy
answer the phone, you know.
-
"Pho Phuc Lai."
-
"Ha ha ha!"
-
Pho Phuc Lai.
-
Doesn't it sound like
a whole new level of lying?
-
"Hey, don't lie!
That's a pho phuc lai!"
-
"You fucking blow job!"
-
You can tell when
Koreans are speaking English,
-
'cause when Korean people speak English,
-
they sound like they're out of breath.
-
Like they just ran a marathon.
-
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
-
"You don't..."
-
"...make any jokes..."
-
"...about..."
-
"...the Koreans."
-
[IMITATES ASTHMA INHALER]
-
I know how to count to six in Korean.
-
Not impressive, but it beats, you know,
-
learning how to swear in
somebody's language, know what I mean?
-
When we get mad, the first thing you do
when you learn somebody's language,
-
we learn how to curse, right?
-
When we get mad at people
when they come here,
-
and the first thing they learn
is how to swear at you.
-
I mean, we're like, "Oh, that's so ignorant."
-
Did you hear me walk into a store going
"Hello, motherfucker."
-
That's what he learned,
you know what I mean?
-
I learned how to count to six,
it's not impressive, but...
-
I learned... and I'm not being a dick,
-
I really did learn how to count to six
from my dry cleaner.
-
I did. I will drop my shirts off,
-
and then she'll count them,
and I'll count along with her.
-
So I learned, right? I did it.
-
So, here I count to six. Ready?
-
"Uhrana."
-
"Shura."
-
"Sureeah."
-
"Uurah."
-
"Haibah."
-
"Shexah!"
-
Shexah?
-
"Are you Jewish?"
-
You can tell when
Chinese people are speaking English
-
When Chinese people speak English,
-
it sounds like they're
chopping vegetables with the words.
-
You know what I mean?
-
[IMITATES CHINESE ACCENT]
"You don't go nowhere quick!"
-
"Don't say nothing bad!"
-
"Don't say nothing what?"
-
"Bad."
-
How did you just make
a short word even shorter?
-
I learned about the cultures
'cause I travel around, know what I mean?
-
I did shows in Vietnam a few years ago.
-
I had a good time in Vietnam.
Vietnam is a great place.
-
Hot as shit! Hot as hell in Vietnam.
-
Like, when an Indian guy
tells you it's hot,
-
trust me, it was hot!
-
Good place. Nice people.
-
I didn't know until I went to Vietnam,
-
that you can actually use a scooter,
-
as a minivan.
-
I didn't know.
-
You will see
an entire family on a scooter.
-
Like, dad will sit here, right,
-
on the little piece of seat.
-
And a small child will sit there.
-
And then another
small child will stand in front.
-
And then mom will sit off
to the side at the back like that.
-
And then another kid
will sit off to the side this way.
-
And one more kid will face that way.
-
And there'll be
three kids doing back flips
-
while he's driving on the street.
-
When you saw that here,
-
that'll be stuffs you see
like at the circus,
-
"Do not attempt to do this at home,"
-
"these are professional stunt drivers."
-
And there will be six white guys
and they'll be driving real careful.
-
In Vietnam, it's the entire family.
-
Dad's weaving in and out of traffic.
[IMITATES HONKING SOUND]
-
Mom's on the back, eating.
[IMITATES HONKING SOUND]
-
Good place, Vietnam. I did-
-
And if there's
any other reason to go to Vietnam,
-
I'll tell you what it is. For their money.
-
The money in Vietnam is dope.
Do you know what it's called?
-
Dong.
-
That's the name of their money.
-
Dong.
-
It's worth going there
-
just to have a woman
you don't know walk up and go
-
"Excuse me, sir."
-
"Could you give me some dong?"
-
"Yes, I can."
-
"Would you like some schlong
with that dong? Would you..."
-
I love that term 'schlong.'
-
Doesn't it sound gross?
-
White guys came up
with that term for sure, right?
-
"Hey, dude, there I was,"
-
"as I whipped up my schlong."
-
'Schlong.'
-
Sounds wet.
-
I don't even have schlong.
-
You know, I got a schlurt.
-
I got uh...
-
Hey, dude, the show's up here, okay?
-
"I'm not a piece of meat."
-
Went to China last year, mainland.
-
Chinese people
where are you? Right there?
-
You're over there?
-
You're over here too. Look at that.
-
- You Chinese too, bro?
- Yeah.
-
Yeah? You looked upset about that.
-
"You Chinese too?"
He was like, "Yeah..."
-
"I try to do this a lot,
but it doesn't work."
-
"Now I'm a Porish."
-
What's you name, Chinese guy?
-
I'm Vincent.
-
Vincent, that's what I thought
when I looked at you, I was like,
-
That guy there is Vincent.
-
Do you have
a Chinese name as well, Vincent?
-
Yeah.
-
What is it, Vincent?
-
Uh, Liung Ay Hyung.
-
Oh, slow down, hammer.
I'm not Chinese, you know what I mean?
