8 Asians

When Ernie wrote about Ramiele Malubay, the 20-yo Filipina on this season’s American Idol, I thought, “Hey, she’s pretty damn talented! That’s a good voice!”
Then I thought the same thing Brian thought: “That Ramiele is an absolute cutie. And I feel like a creep.”
So when I saw Jen’s post on Disgrasian, “Boobs. Oh My God…Boobs.“, [...]

For a long time, it was hard for me. [Cue violin music] All the sunglasses I’d buy in the stores were so big and round. Not a good fit for my chinky eyes. But now Oakley has answered my prayers! [Cue happy jazzy music]
My dilemma with sunglasses is finally over! Thanks to these Asian [...]

On a totally unrelated note, when jozjozjoz mentioned latose intolerance, it reminded me of an experiment I tried.
I, like many Asian Americans I know, turned lactose intolerant a few years ago. And it totally sucked ass. No more Cold Stones and Ben & Jerrys. Goodbye Pizookies. Hello soy milk.

OMG.
Is that really… Lil’ Kim?? She looks, um, different.
This photo was snatched from gossip blog TMZ. Here’s a video the paparazzi took. She’s also been seen wearing that same outfit, so I guess she must really dig it.
Extra kudos goes to krismar for funniest comment eva: “SHE HAS THE MICHAEL JACKSON RACE CHANGING DISEASE…..”
Hehehe.

If you’re familiar with Japanese customs, you’ll find this [...]

Remember Kenneth Eng, the deranged kid who wrote the article, “Why I Hate Blacks”? (Now there’s someone who’s 24 cans short a case of beer.) I thought of him when I read this article by Robin Zhou the other day, entitled: “Latinos Lag Behind in Academics“.
Now, Zhou’s article isn’t as blatantly hateful and racist as [...]

I’m not really sure what to write. I just heard that the body found on Mount Tamalpais is indeed Veronica Ruiz’s. She died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, reports SFGate.
I’m conflicted about writing this. Not just because its such a painful subject, but because news reports of suicides can sometimes [...]

Ernie first posted this article as a comment last night, but since I’ve been getting pinged about it all day, I decided to bring further attention to it.
According to SFGate.com:

A Marin County Sheriff’s Department search and rescue team found the body of a woman at 1:38 p.m. in Slide Gulch Ravine, sheriff’s Lt. Doug [...]
