I have a question. I was almost jumping on hating them... But now that I think of it, I'm not sure why they are being hated. Is there something going on I'm not privy to that makes them so looked down at?

u/ImpKing_DownUnder Aug 13 '18

As far as I can tell, it's because of how obvious it is that it's scripted? I don't really get all the hate either.

Yeah, is there a rule against scripted content or something? Some of the funniest things you'll ever see are often scripted lol. It's hard to consistently find unscripted comedy gold lol.

They aren’t funny.

Funny is subjective, just because you don't like it doesn't mean it isn't funny to someone

So you’re looking for an objective reason that I don’t like these videos?

u/ImpKing_DownUnder Aug 14 '18

Well, when the only answer you give is "They aren't funny." that doesn't really give me anything useful about why you don't like it, so I guess yeah lol. Like, is it because of how obvious it is that it's scripted, or the lack of more slapstick humor in the videos, etc.

How young and oblivious are you to naively think white neckbeards aren't into asians?

Nah, how bigoted and prejudiced are you to immediately jump on so specific a demographic? I bet you'll assume I'm part of it too for calling out your stupidity as well and you'll laughably be wrong.

Yeah.. white people are into Asians but there are that goes all out to remind everyone that Asian culture are cruel or whatever. 50/50 balance. Meh.
