The Opposite of Harvard?

You guys and Jolly tease poor 'ol my bud Ax, but I'll tell you what: Ax could beat the shit out of any cow in that valley, with one hand tied behind his back any day. I'll betcha. Huh Ax. I doth speaketh the truths, dude. (Ax, that's like Shakespeare talk stuff, like at Harvard)

[Horace]

Orientals know so much karate chops. If there was a fight, me and Ax and TG would win because of kung fu fighting.

[Doctor Phibes]

I suspect you know more about pork chops

[Horace]

Some people know so little karate chops, it's like they know negative karate chops. Sad.

"Orientals?" You said "Orientals?"

That would get you fired at Starbucks.

@Axtremus Really? That's all you got out of the article?

I mentioned Aqua, because the Shakespeare argument during an extended deprived sleep period struck me as something he would do.

Yeah, I very well might, but between the two of us, it's my wife who's the real Shakespeare scholar. She was an expert even before she started college. Then when she did, she basically majored in Shakespeare. Sure, I know the sonnets okay, but she schools me on the plays.

Heck yeah I'd attend as an undergrad. Honestly I do wish I'd gone somewhere else, but I also wasn't in a position to make a well-reasoned decision about my education at the time, so ah well, it worked out I suppose.

My daughter loves Shakespeare, since about 8th grade. Very knowledgeable about it.

You can tell the orientals by their slanty eyes. Follow me for more life hacks.

Most people in Taiwan tell a westerner by the size of the nose, not by the shape of the eyes.

In Sun Tzu’s Art of War, one of the most famous passages states that when fighting round eyes, alway karate chop to the nose, for it is unmistakeable and cannot be missed.

Thinly veiled antisemitism.

Non-islamic/persian Asian people might be a better choice of words.

People from different cultures, countries, racial groups and religious faiths are involved in the production of oriental rugs. Since many of these countries lie in an area which today is referred to as the Islamic world, oriental rugs are often also called “Islamic Carpets”,[5] and the term “oriental rug” is used mainly for convenience. The carpets from Iran are known as “Persian Carpets”.

The orientals are a mystical race. Their culture is based mostly in karate chops.
