A weblog by Ernie Hsiung

Very funny, Kevin.

(Some people might wonder how I might be okay with this photo when I posted a tirade about Mister Wong just a week ago. Easy: context. I know Kevin, I like Kevin, we can make fun of each other. It also helps that, honestly, the photograph is throughly hilarious.)

  5. Robin Yap says:

    Context indeed. Plus the fact that when we know the person we laugh about it instead. I think I have to blog about this as well. Thanks for the photos and links Ernie

  6. Alison says:

    Great photo. I didn’t get the caption so I had to say it out loud. Got it.

  7. Frankie says:

    This certainly put a smile on my face. We need to be able to laugh at ourselves.

    But only once in awhile.

    Any more and we’re that crazy homeless guy down at the bus stop.

    My dear little yellow unmet friend:

    I don’t know who you are or how I found you, but I look forward to any new postings each week. My only complaint is that you don’t post often enough!!

    U B FUNNY. Keep it up. FYI – more conversations with your mother, please!

  9. Proof that you never know what will show up next on LYD.

    *pedant warning*
    But Mandarin is full of /l/s …e.g. the Li sisters (Gong & Jett) and its /r/ sound is really problematic to us anglophones. Are you secretly Japanese? (sorry)

    (Thanks Jay, I changed the spelling.)

  13. michael Craig says:

    I hope we meet one day before one of us dies!

  14. Sherri says:

    That photo makes me want to give you a cookie or something so you’ll stop giving me the pity eyes.

  15. doodle says:

    You’re simply adorable.

  16. Good god, this made me laugh. Nice.

  17. funny says:

    you are hilarious. i look forward to reading your blog!

  18. Ken says:

    Offensively hilarious.

    Though, I should note that the correct stereotypical grammar would be “Preez *to* be retting me in *you* countlee”

  19. sneexe says:

    I dunno … I didn’t find the Mr Wong thing offensive at all… do you think the social climate in America makes things seem all blown up outta proportion when it comes to being “politically correct” ???

    Reminds me of a book that came out a long time ago- politically correct fairytales…

  21. You look so thin, whhoooohoooooooo! Keep up the good work, Ernie!

  22. Jess says:

    Nope. Not funny at all.

    As white as I am, I’m not taking any chances around you these days! So no, that wasn’t me smiling or chuckling. Just someone who looked like me! (I mean, we white guys all look alike to you, don’t we?)

    *ducking*
