KT #19623 May 2017
That was the year when Congress passed what is called the Margaret Cho Law, which requires that all Asian comics do an impression of their parents. I still haven't done an impression of my parents yet.
I still need a lot more practice following black people around liquor stores.
My parents don't work at a liquor store.
They're just very rude.
I shouldn't call my dad rude.
Abusive is a better word.
KT #17727 Aug 2017
I would say that I rarely date, that even that would be an understatement.
That's like saying Magic Johnson rarely donates blood.
He's all into trends and stuff. Like if he was white, I would call him a wigger, but people don't call Asians wiggers,
so I call him Filipino.
KT #16423 July 2016
I always got nicknames as a kid based on things that other kids said that I resembled. Dumbo because of the ears.
Bruce Lee because he was Asian.
- Never seen Asians get a B in anything.
Filipinos don't count.
KT #16027 Dec 2018
I mean, no wonder he gave me such a strange name, right? If you screw up when you do something for yourself, you're going to screw up when you do it for somebody else.
That's why you never see Rihanna teaching a self-defense class.
but the thing I've always hated the most is that even though he loves movies like Timecop and Bloodsport, he has never even once referred to himself as Anne Van
Pham the Van Dan Pham.
KT #13628 Dec 2018
I'm used to being the weird guy.
I grew up in Mexico, I'm sorry, the valley.
I keep making that mistake because I have eyes.
I never fit in, especially when I was nine, because that was the year where my mom thought it was a good idea to give me a perm. Now if you think that my school full of Latinos was making fun of me a lot for being Asian with big ears,
imagine being Asian with a Jew fro.
They called me the diary of Japan Frank.
KT #12925 Mar 2018
I'm too skinny and too short to be attractive to anybody,
aside from pedophiles.
just to be eligible for 72 virgins. But how awkward would that be? Imagine what would happen if I was alone in a room with 72 virgins.
There would be 73 virgins.
KT #10128 Dec 2018
But there is a happy ending.
My dad is now burning in hell.
I'm saying that metaphorically.
Burning in hell is just what I call living in Fresno.
