"Did the white kid just say something ?"

[C_squared]

I lol'd!

[prozac]

I thought the eyeroll would help illustrate the sarcasm to you, but I forgot you don't register sarcasm and thats what got you posting all this crap about VICE in the first place.

[Grapes]

That's funny because they think you're a chink and a paki who has too many babies, fucking up our pure white race.

A chink AND a paki? How confusing.

[-evil-duerr-]

the racist gangbang would be complete, if only it had some sort of audio commentary.

[prozac]

roffles, my friend, great big roffles.

That's what they said "[whatever] percent Asians, that's pakis and chinks." I'm confused too.

Go grab an atlas. India is part of Asia.

Hold up!!! So if racist prose is sarcastic, and in a shitty magazine, then it doesnt count? Or is any less unacceptable? Theres a tree falling down in the forest analogy somewhere here.

"Vancouver is a lot like a hot young girl—she looks good, smells good, and is firm and soft in all the right places, but is ultimately a naively cocky mess of contradictions that can’t hold her liquor. Have fun!"

It's funny because vancouver is still the best city in canada. I would love to see a review Edmonton by the same writer.

[Grapes]

The difference is that VICE would never bother reviewing Edmonton, or Calgary, or Winnipeg, etc.

The honor is just to be nominated.

And for the record, I thought that quote was one of the most positive in the whole edition

Yeah what's THAT about?

And "The 'Couve"??

Um no thanks that's what Portlanders call Vancouver, WA.

naw, vice sucks, I'm with you on that one. I just thought he got ridiculously worked up about something that wasn't worth it.

Oh, and it wasn't even the prose anyways ... I heard there was an audio commentary or something :)

Yeah, um, you do realize that about 50% of that article is bullshit, right?

Frankly I think they put that stuff in there just so they could easily seperate people that actually know Vancouver and people that just know what they read in Vice.

It's an elaborate joke where you just haven't heard the punchline yet.

[prozac]

Yeah, I think they wanted to see if they could get a bunch of idiots walking around the Drive calling it "Comersh"...I bet it'll work.
