Q: why was my post about yellow people taken down in 2 minutes ?
Yet the post about white people stayed up for a day?
Cause some people (perhaps related to pigmentation) can take a joke and/or insult better than others
Because "yellow" is more noticeable than "white"
Or maybe the "secondary" (pitch-in) Mr Cat was caught napping, and the real Mr Cat has come back already.
Is it that the yellow skin is not thick enough to handle the question?
Jesus, better not watch one of those "Comedy Central Roasts"
There are two things I know about white people: they love Matchbox 20, and they are terrified of curses.
DaBen:
I'm not afraid of any gosh darn curse.... (please don't put a curse on me for saying that)
HugAPanda:
I curse thee to 100 hours straight of Matchbox 20's "3 AM".
DaBen:
Well it's only 3 a.m.... I would have been doomed if it was something like Unwell
HugAPanda:
I'm a nice curser. :) I could have added, " while naked treadmilling."
DaBen:
Then the curse wouldn't last 100 hours... I'd end up falling in the begining and assuming the curse wouldn't let me off the treadmill or stop it.... It would kill me before the curse was halfway through. Through probally not the easiest way to die.
Xpat.John:
Is it sad that when I read Matchbox 20, I thought of little metal cars since I have never heard of a group named that?
HugAPanda:
:( Don't die DaBen... I'd be a sad panda. @John.... For shame!
Shining_brow:
That's usually my first thought as well, John! Secondly, and indirectly related, some useless trivia. The Australian football team was cursed a few decades (1970), and it wasn't until a local celebrity-type had the curse removed that we started going well in the World cup... (link: http://www.smh.com.au/news/football/socceroos-owe-it-all-to-one-man--and-it-isnt-hiddink/2005/11/19/1132017026017.html:)
It's unrelated to china...you could be referring to people in Canada for all we know...here is a word someone mentioned "concise", try to use it.
TedDBayer:
if very concise then there would be no country, : explain in few words
Because the line is much clearer the 2nd time it's crossed.
mattaya:
or it could be that yellow is the term that people use to describe cowards..
I write some humourous things and they disappear. I don't understand the list management. Most of what I say is not offensive. I have not heard Matchbox 20 in long time. OMG is this offensive? that I do not listen to Matchbox 20, I am sorry.
I had white witch GF. You must have your own power to be immune or at least convince them your powers are greater than theirs. I have no powers I must pretend. Never show a curse affects you, even if your hair falls out (it grows back-trust me). You can put a spell on a witch. Tell her your spell is so she can not deny you sex. This works everytime. I dunno about yellow witch tho?
I see you all get thumbs down, so I give thumbs up. Too bad no finger option.
What you all got against Yellowman He was an orphan and lost his jaw to cancer
That's pretty cold man pretty cold.
HugAPanda:
Wasn't Yellowman Snowman before the dogs lifted their legs on him?
Here's another question...why did this site get attacked and shut down for 3 hours shortly after your question? Maybe some people have thin skin, but the wu mao's have the thinest.
Well, probably because "white people" is an accepted term. I mean, if someone calls you white, you don't get offended, right? But "yellow people" is not a normal term. We usually say they are Asian. So at best it sounds strange, at worst it sounds racist.
fish79:
I think you will find among educated people the term “White people” is found equally offensive.
derek:
...and when I tell a student he/she is an Asian..they usually say, "Asian, what's that?" I tell them who the Asains are and they say, "No, I'm not Japanese!"

I still think that "spicy chili sauce with a side of wide rice noodles" was the best answer. :)
This so called Middle Kingdom does not take kindly to being called on their flaws. If you say anything bad about anything here it is like it is a personal insult to their whole well being. The Chinese can only talk about them selves and nobody else has the right to do that, The Dude mentioned Wu mao and he is right they are watching us with all their rightiousness and waiting to make up any excuse to slag a foreigner. We are all foreign devils you know and we should be thanking them for even allowing us to be in their great superior Middle Kingdom where all things are better then anywhere else in the whole world as Chinese are the matser race, so anything else is not welcome.
Conform all you foreigner devils conform to the Masters race.
Cats have to sleep too, you know.
