  • what's the big deal, fraser correctional is way too white, balances out

  • where are the black people?

    XD

  • @prettylolitadoll good question, not very many at UBC.

  • its just like UCLA or UCB

  • so cool. he likes dog........(deep fried)

  • @DanishNinja20 , ah but who doesn't? don't knock it till you try it;)

  • People in BC having a problem with Asians? What else is new?

    Also, the perennial question stands: What do they mean by Asians? Are there a lot of Israelis in UBC?

  • @KAPTAINmORGANnWo4eva , haha, good point. I like the word perennial btw. I tend to use it perennially.

  • I graduated from UBC in the early 1990's and I loved the mix of ethnic groups among the student population while I was there. I should add that I am white. Many of my best friends at UBC were either Canadians of Asian descent or students from Asian countries. I think the problem is perhaps that some whites are envious of the success of Canadians of Asian descent. A lot of hard work lies behind that success. Hard working young people are going to succeed, and skin colour means nothing.

  • @gnooggi @gnooggi , You probably personally harbor little in the way of prejudice, but I'm not sure if I agree that skin color means nothing. Light-skinned black women receive shorter prison sentences than dark women. But I still appreciate the sentiment behind the declaration.

  • I love the concept, and the captions had me laughing out loud xD Great work man!

  • @SlockNCFC191 , wow, thanks very much! The captions were a team effort... I think Rebecca was the one who first came up w. the concept to overlay over the video itself. We screened the first cut of the video, and felt like something was missing... if you check our channel, she plays China in our Mac PC parodies. Thanks again for commenting!

  • black ppl are lactose intolerant too. Well not all of us but you know what I mean

  • @VictorynJESUS4 , seriously? I didn't know that. Black folks? East Indian? First Nations? who do you mean?

  • @ShiggyTV African Americans are lactose and we take showers b4 bed

  • @VictorynJESUS4 , cool! I feel so much closer to my black brothers and sista's now. We people of color got to stick together;) lol

  • @ShiggyTV I read that being lactose intolerant is actually the norm. That it is known as a disorder is somewhat ironic because numerically and in terms of human history it was/is more 'normal' for humans not to be able to glean nourishment from the milk of other animals; its just that evolution adapted certain human populations, in Europe mostly, because it was such an advantage for those that could that the ability to do so became a lot more widespread throughout the population over time.

  • @SlockNCFC191 Cool! I think this may be the first time I actually learned something wiki-ish from our comment section... Thanks!

  • everyone showers b4 well except Caucasian ppl

  • @VictorynJESUS4 , oh so it's the Cauc's that are strange.... haha. It's funny, I just find when I'm clean, I sleep much deeper...

  • haha one of the asian dudes is my creative writing professor...

  • Damn, I'm Spanish, from Spain, and I'm always hearing "there are too many asians (chinese in our case)". Since when is it possible for asians to be "too many"? There's never TOO MANY asians. I prefer asians above anything else, I love asians. Is that racist? Well, I give a fu.

  • @lasluin, no Marta, it's never racist to love Asians. And if anyone tells you otherwise, let them know you're a personal friend of Tetsuro Shigematsu, The Deadliest Warrior, and he deputized you not only as an honorary Asian, but you were christened as the very first international foreign correspondent for ShiggyTV - the be all and end of all of all things Asian.

  • @ShiggyTV I'm debating between showing how happy those three status upgrades make me or keeping it cool and save my dignity. Let me make a badge out of each one of them: Tetsuro Shigematsu Personal Friend (no comments or inmediate loss of dignity), Honorary Asian (OMG how come I never thought of trying to achieve that, saving an asian's life or something??) and First International Foreing Correspondent for ShiggyTV!!!! Is it you, St Peter? Am I dead? *_*

  • @lasluin, lol. never keep it cool, too restrictive. So now that you are our overseas bureau chief, what stories are you going to file? ;)

  • @ShiggyTV Hmm, believe it or not, I'm kind of surrounded by asian related news just here in my very small city which have to do with university too, but also with economy, society, etc. and there's such a lack of information about it in media that you would think there are no asian people in Spain. I hadn't noticed until now, how weird. Not saying I would be capable to cover for it xD but it would be quite interesting to make someone notice this too.

  • I literally burst out laughing with each caption

    That was well done (deep fried)

  • @antmayfield, thanks! much appreciated. Yes, we were esp. proud of Ray's love of dogs;)

  • DON'T GO UBC AT ALL THE SCHOOL IS SCAM GOT REJECTED TO UBC BUT GOT IN TO UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLIN AND MICHIGIAN STATE AND TEXAS A&M THOSE SCHOOLS ASS FUCK UBC UBC IS GD FOR MEDICINE THOU BUT STILL SUK MY NUTS

  • @dojOdRiFTeR, congratulations for accepted into all those other schools. If you do ever consider applying to graduate schools, be sure to do CAPS UNLOCK, and maybe run the spell-checker. Just saying....

  • @ShiggyTV u ubc wankers shud come down to the us we lol at that shit school ut is good but ubc is a joke never seen a school so oevrrated in my life btw arts major u shudn't be telling anyone anything bout caps lock as far as imam concerned uliberal yuppies can't even get a job after schoolexcept for starbucks or some other shit

  • chinks. chinks everywhere.

  • @3x0rcyst3m, awww, and here I was hoping this was the first verse to bedtime poem...

  • I am alumni of UBC, an Asian Canadia. I am proud of my country and school. And I like to say, F?k you, Maclean. F?k you very much, Stephanie Findlay and Nicholas Köhler, for the despicable article you wrote. Shame on you!!! Canadian history will certainly mark this as as the event to unite and Stephanie Findlay and Nicholas Köhler, your abominable article will find its way to reside in your guilt.

  • This is how Canada treats its new immigrants. It is disgraceful for Canada to the rest of the world. Canada, is that the best one can do to treat its hard-working new immigrants? Where is the equality and human right? Does skin color really that important and does it makes one less of a human being?

  • Comment removed

  • I actually disagree. I see so many white people everyday I'm on campus as well. Well not just white people but people of literally all races. I think it really depends on which lens youre wearing. Sure there are a lot of asians (this is Vancouver after all) but I dont think its like, overpowering.

  • wtf is this

  • For the first time, I am proud to be a UBC Law graduate. Artists like you can lead our road to justice! Thanks to Brad Lee for letting me know about this video and look forward to his documentary Operation Oblivion.

  • @hwangcompany , thanks very much! now subscribe why don't you?;)

  • If there is anyone to blame for UBC being too Asians, it is the money hungry white administration. People forget to take into account that international students from Asia have to pay 3 times for the tuition compared to Canadian students. And of course not just anyone can get into UBC. So the administration is going to pick these international students so they should blame themselves if they truly are figuring why UBC is too Asian. Yes there are alot of Asians in UBC, why? Becaue of money

  • @darthsamurai

    you're so absolutely wrong. The only reason International Students pay "more" tuition is because the gov't subsidizes the "extra" $15,000 in tuition for domestic students.

  • @darthsamurai You may be partly right but for the wrong reasons. International students aren't subsidized by the government. That's why they get charged a different fee. Proportion of international students is a factor in many rankings though; that may be a motivating factor.

  • @darthsamurai As of this year, it appears it is FOUR times as much. I have a buddy who came from France (he is also American though) who pays 2k for just one class...

  • Saw the article on this in the Epoch times. Also saw an article in the Epoch times about the Macleans article claiming that Canadian schools were too Asian. Kudos to UBC for not putting up with that ludicrous article. I just wish BCIT had thought of it first.

  • LOL 0:42 I love the girl in orange  :)

  • oh so just because the white guy "feels guilty about Hiroshima" that it makes it ok and appropriate that he's in this video? Its a fact that white people will never ever in a million years know what its like to be oppressed because racism is not something that something a white person can learn about. Racism is felt and white people have never truly FELT racism

    This video is great but the title should not be UBC is too Asian unless they are trying to preach racism. It gives off the wrong idea

  • @darthsamurai Oh, hey. I remember you. You're that guy/girl who just HAS to crap all over anything that anyone DOES. Rather than responding to your pack of crap, I'll ask this: what have you CREATED lately and where can I find it posted online?

  • @billallman what you have asked has nothing to do with anything. That video was offensive because it had Asians stereotypes all over it. That panda express reference is ridiculous. That's as bad as saying, someone is denying that they're racist because they love chinese food. Gimme a break. How would you feel if I said to you, are you white? You respond yes. And then I say .....oh I love Hamburgers!! Its just ridiculous.

  • @darthsamurai Jane, you ignorant slut! The Asian stereotypes were the POINT of the video. It was satire, it was irony and... it was lost on you. As you're looking around for creative works to crap on, please find the book "Things White People Like" and organize a burning at your earliest convenience.

  • @billallman How would you feel if Asians made a music video which lists every single white stereotype. Yes, I know it was parody. Yes I know people laugh that this stuff. Not everyone shares your ignorant sense of humor. Here's a better idea, why don't YOU make a video which lists all the stereotypes you can think of about black people. Why don't YOU be the mastermind behind it and hire a bunch of black actors so that it makes it OK. How about that?

  • @darthsamurai I've read through some of your other comments on this issue and realize there is absolutely no point in continuing this discussion. You obviously have experienced the vile sting of racism and nothing I or anyone says is going to remove the hurt or get you to see the POSITIVE things that this "MacLean's" comedy video is trying to accomplish.

  • @billallman racism is something YOU will never feel. Ever. I don't care if you claim that you understand it, you have never ever felt it. The only way to make this video proper is if only Asian people were in it that were making fun of Asian people and no other race. When you have another race making fun of Asians, you're creating controversy. The only positivity I see in this is production value.

  • @darthsamurai I never EVER claimed to understand it or to have felt it. I can't imagine, though, that racism is alleviated by any statement that begins with "The only way to make this video proper is if only Asian people were in it...". Fail. At the same time, you've never not been able to dance or tanned badly or liked croquet!

  • @billallman yeah cuz white people are making fun of Asians in that video. Asians ok something like this because its accepted that Asians are known to not stand up for themselves. When shit goes down, they turn a blind eye. So I guess its ok to make a video like this. Asians could make a video about white ppl. But it will never happen because simply of the reason being.....its just stupid!! If it ever happened, white ppl will be in such an uproar. But of course, this one is ok.

  • Just watched Chris Rock's video "Crackers". Laughed my ass off! No uproar here. Rock is, truly, an equal opportunity offender! Glad to live in a society where comics are not able to be silenced for being "controversial" or "offensive". There is no law to protect hurt feelings and in a true democracy, there never will be.

    Just for fun (if you have any) check out Avenue Q's "Everyone's a Little Bit Racist". You'll see both our points of view represented therein.

  • @darthsamurai dude, chill the fuck out lol, what the hells wrong wit u? im asian too and i dont overreact so extravagantly.

  • @TacticalOrgasm ok dude, imma chill the fuck out cuz you asian and you told me to

  • Comment removed

  • @msdee1819 when's the last time you were ever oppressed? Did you know that New Westminster, BC had a Chinatown? Me, neither. Did you know that when Chinatown was on fire, the white ppl just let them burn? Not alot of ppl know that cuz the only ppl keeping that info alive is Chinese ppl that suffered through it. When has something like that happened to you? My friends were in White Rock speaking Chinese and some ppl told us to speak english, have you ever felt that in Chinatown? No?

  • excuse me but how does an Asian girl "prefers white guys" has anything to do with UBC being too Asian? NOTHING

    It should've been the other way around where a white guy prefers Asian girls. Not that they give a shit about Asian culture or anything, its just their fetish

  • oh so he has a chinese tattoo and he has a buddha on his dashboard, so that makes it ok??????

  • That was bloody awesome!

  • OK, how did you know I like asian guys...

    no really

  • @kdar81, How could you not?! with 'Asian MJ' and 'Oriental Stevie', how could a gal resist? I'm sure even Diana Ross will eventually come 'round;)

  • OK,how did you know i read manga scans...

    no really

    - cara

    

  • @ckauh, lol. if you really want to know... We generated more captions than were actually used... long story short, I tried out 3 on your shot, (which is one my very fave's btw) one about Bubble Tea, another about - oh I can't remember... but the one that "fit" was the one I you see. To me it just seemed really interesting, yet utterly believable. Lucky guess? Intuition? Ima go w. the latter;)

  • LACTOSE INTOLERANT

  • Damn! I wish I was Asian. Where do I sign up?

  • @99BUNGALOW, at the bottom of a blank post-dated check, made out to "Tetsuro Shigematsu - Official Arbiter of all things Asian"

  • @ShiggyTV 'cuz every man have his price:)

  • Makes me want to go to UBC.

  • This video makes me so happy. THIS IS WHAT MULTICULTURALISM LOOKS LIKE!

  • I can't get that song out of my head!

  • Not only does that guy sing like Stevie Wonder, he drives like him too.

  • @99BUNGALOW, of all the comments I ever read, yours was the first to make me laugh out loud. Other folks on the team too. Wanna come write for ShiggyTV? ;)

  • @ShiggyTV You bet! 

  • @99BUNGALOW , omg. I just check your profile. lol. you ALREADY do! hilarious. I honestly forgot your YT handle. too funny.

  • @ShiggyTV LOL! That video makes me long for MTV of the 80s!

  • That naked asian guy is pretty funny. He should make his own movie. :)

  • @kingwk01 I agree Mr. The King :)

  • @kingwk01, nakedasianguy, Damn! I knew I'd eventually hear a better name for this YouTube Channel. See you soon!

  • @kingwk01, and then he should give a commemorative copy to his best bud in SoCal.

  • From my friend Raul...

    "It was awesome that everybody played the parts of the singers, costumes and all! Of course, the kids are incredible, singing and dancing. Great production! Please send my warmest congratulations!"

  • @GeronimoSF , kiss Raul for me. I know you won't mind, because he sounds tall, dark, and Latin American.

  • The article was not racist at all, what right do they have to do a collective "F U" to macleans

  • @italianoboi123 Hey ItalianBoy, maybe you didn't find the article racist because it wasn't called "Too Italian" maybe? hmm? maybe?

  • Very funny, good job Tetsuro!

  • @GeronimoSF, thanks my Azn Sista!

  • Wonderful! TMD太棒了! oh and @condesbus Right on!

  • Great production! You should join with other ethnic communities and make a series along these lines. Nothing unites better than laughter.

  • why even bother to make a video? complete waste of 5 mins y not just black and white text with false sterotyping against asians . not funny at all

    just a bunch of ppl about filming themselves and uploading to youtube does it make u happy that your face is on youtube?

  • @rkky

    why even bother to make a comment? complete waste of 10 secs y not just black and white text with false sterotyping against YouTubers . not poignant at all

    just a dude about expressing himself and uploading to youtube does it make u happy that your text is on youtube?

  • lol tetsuro, why are you topless in the video

  • @RennAndJuliet , you have to watch the video 10 times in a row, and then the answer will BLOW YOUR MIND! It's a psychological Easter Egg, that makes Ringu look like an episode Jersey Shore. Actually, I don't even know what that means... Juliet, nice meeting you at the Village a couple of weeks ago:)

  • THIS IS SO EPIC. WHAT A FIND! *subscribes*

  • @RushDrum99 WHAT A SUBSCRIBER! (no seriously, thanks for subscribing)

  • OMG, Tetsuro, I laughed so hard during this.
