"I've been there. You want to see workaholics? Those Oriental people work like dogs. They work their hearts out. ... That's why they're successful in life. ... I'm telling you, Oriental people, they're slowly taking over, because there's no excuses for them. They're hard, hard workers."

You know what I hate are caucasian primadonnas who brag to their friends about going to a chinese restaurant where "there weren't any white people".

Besides the obvious irony of being a whitey, there's the false premise that the restauranteur will be so head-over-heels excited to see you that he will somehow treat you differently. Even though you asked for a fork, plum sauce and an english menu.

The only way I can see this working is if you take your chinese friends with you and order off the menu. Then you can brag away.

I thought the false premise was that if white people eat there then it mustn't be authentic.

Either way I agree with you. Preetentious.

AD that is fuckin' creepy because I JUST showed up to post that. That blog must be making the rounds :)

Here's the content of it:

This concept ties heavily into post #7 Diversity and post #19 Travelling, but is important that you fully understand how white people view authenticity and experience.

In most situations, white people are very comforted by seeing their own kind. However, when they are eating at a new ethnic restaurant or traveling to a foreign nation, nothing spoils their fun more than seeing another white person.

Many white people will look into the window of an ethnic restaurant to see if there are other white people in there. It is determined to be an acceptable restaurant if the white people in there are accompanied by ethnic friends. But if there is a table occupied entirely by white people, it is deemed unacceptable.

The arrival of the “other white people†to either restaurants or vacation spots instantly means that lines will grow, authenticity will be lost, and the euphoria of being a cultural pioneer will be over.

Being aware of this can be extremely valuable in your efforts to gain the trust of white friends and co-workers. If you bring a white person to an ethnic restaurant and another white person (or group of white people) shows up, you can lose all respect and trust that you have worked so hard to acquire. Do your best to find a table with a divider, or ask the waiter to put future white people out of sight.
