Think again (http://www.tmz.com/2011/08/26/steve-jobs-apple-photo-resignation-ceo-sick/#.TlgKtl3azoI)... poor man. I give him 3 months tops.
But hey, his replacement as Apple CEO is a faggot. That's progress, even if he's still a closet case (http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2011/08/to-be-the-most-powerful-gay-man-in-tech-cook-needs-to-come-out/244083/). What is this, 1974?
Oh, and Cook is a Rice Queen -- where's Shaunie?

Lol, In the US does 'Asian guys' mean guys from China, Phillipines, Thailand etc exclusively? Cos in the UK Asian usually refers to people from the Indian Sub-Continent.
-
Space, I know what you meant! I used to get confused as to say what race/ethnicity I belong to. When I say 'Asian' in USA, it could be misleading. So, I say South East Asian/South Asian/ East Indian (as an ethnicity not country). If you say just Indian ( someone like you) that could even be more misleading since Indians here in USA are the 'American Indians'. You have to be sure to add “East” with Indains :)
When Ms. P. says 'Rice Queens' she meant the Caucasians who are into other Asians:) meaning guys who are Mongolians. Hope that makes sense.
@OP… I had no idea Steve Jobs looks like this now..WOW.. :o
I am glad the new CEO is gay though he is in the closet, Its hard to climb up the ladder if are gay, female, or Non-White ( unfortunate, yaa.. I know..) given the statistics shows most CEO's are chosen who are white, straight, and 'upper class'. So, glad to see he is an exception, who belongs to a minority group though he wouldn't like to classify himself as, still….
-
Hmmm...Since I think you might wanna edit your comment. The term "Mongolian looking" can be read as being slightly offensive, i think.
Also South Asia is different to South East Asia.
South Asia = India, Pakistan, Bdesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka
SE Asia = Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia etc
-
No dear -- in USA#1 "Asian" (AZN) generally refers to the Chinese, or by extension their heathen brethren in Taiwan or Hong Kong. Traditionally this was so, from decades ago in terms of immigration. 20 years ago it was very rare to encounter someone from India or Pakistan in the US -- they all went to the UK for obvious historical reasons. And of course the Japanese, being filthy racists, only come to the US to go shopping at Gucci. And Koreans back then were still poor folk.
Oh, there was a decent influx of Vietnamese after the war, notably where I grew up outside of Washington, DC. I was friends with one Vietnamese girl that nobody would talk to (see? I am a nice person!) named Mai Tran, and she couldn't pronounce my name so she called me Dayba Sowa. So then other people called me that, even when I went to college. Dayba Sowa, you so bad!
Now a Rice Queen is a gay white man, often older, that seeks the pleasure of Asian boy sphincter. A gay Asian that only seeks other Asian boys is called Sticky Rice.
ps: for extra credit I'm going on a date here (http://www.rawlounge.net/) Wednesday night.

Ha.. that was actually a hot topic in our last support group gathering (..on the beach, with bottles of cold wine no less). ;)
Is he really into rice? Now don't get me all excited Ms. P.. I do need some cash NOW.. I mean a lot of it. I think I can stand the creepy looks and his pale skin overgrown with hair.. :P

Child please -- we all know you don't munch crackers. Typical Asian racist that hates those sei gweilo.

To me, an Asian is any individual who would come from the continent of Asia....not all of which would be classified as Oriental.

Wow.. the thread is moving really fast..
@lol at Ms. P's comments...on sticky rice ( Again. just for fun..no judgement here)... Agreed though, lot more South Asians here in USA than what it was 20 years ago!
@space - Corrected.. I didn't mean no harm. I apologize in advance if anyone is offended. Its not a bad word unless you see it is. Is Caucasian bad word? So, see it that way. I would rather say Caucasian to refer someone who is White. I would say Black who is Black and say Indian who is Indian. I am South Asian meaning I am 'East Indian looking'. Anyway, the whole race things gets way confusing..
I would rather stick to one race - guess what .. "IT IS HUMAN RACE".

Since, if you are Paki or Bdeshi you are INDIAN as far as I am concerned hahahaahahaha. You're gonna hate me for this. ;D

I don't get why "rice queen" doesn't seem to be regarded as offensive. I can't see getting see getting the same pass referring to other races in terms of associated foods.
It doesn't bother me personally, but it seems curious.
-
In the land of MattytheDamned we're called Curry Munchers.
I thought it's quite an original and delicious racial pejorative, not to mention it is also inaccurate given that it is not possible to make a 'munching' sound while eating curry. ;D
-
Just one problem there. Cook is one of those at the high levels who is afraid to publicly confirm his homosexuality. And he won't be a role model for the LGBT community until he confirms the rumors and comes out of the glass closet he is assumed to be living in.
Maybe that is one reason why he hasn't come out, if he is actually gay. Who wants to be crowned "gay role model" or "biggest gay in tech"? If he wants to come out for himself I think that is great but there people who want him to come out so they can categorize him, further their own agenda and make money off magazine articles.

Aussies call us that? Didn't know that..

Agreed. I guess lots of people who are out would like to be crowned for the "gay role model" Though, I believe its hard not to be out if you are that big of a shot. As of now, he is the new star of 'closeted gay celebrities' in US. Glad to hear that more and more gays taking over 'the high places'.

Actually, come to think of it, there is one person in Apple Corp. I surely hope was gay... (http://www.apple.com/pr/bios/jonathan-ive.html)

Admire him for his business and creative genius.

Rice Queen is mildly but it never entered mainstream everyday vocabulary. I don't think dinge queen ever made it either, did it?
(My grandma still uses oriental and colored. "Louie" did an episode about the old people racist vocabulary "pass" this season.)

There is a 'queen' for every noun.... just fill in the blank !!

SO, does all this categorizing, satirizing, memorizing, and familiarizing move us somewhere over a fractured rainbow?

Wow this thread is one of those that has left me speechless.... informative tho.... but WOW
-
*despises being referred to as a "cracker"*
Ha.. relax guys.. being white is great, while the rest of us can only envy. Someone mentioned Louis CK, he sums it up best (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TG4f9zR5yzY) (make sure to watch the whole thing, the "cracker" comment is at the end).
SO, does all this categorizing, satirizing, memorizing, and familiarizing move us somewhere over a fractured rainbow?
Dude.. relax too.. it's just about sexual preferences.. I don't see how "rice" queen is any different than, say, size queen. Associating sex with foods is nothing new.. though historically eating rice wasn't the norm, more of a luxury and common only in South East Asia.. in the past most of Chinese diet was wheat-base.
Look pass these preferences it's more important to note when it comes to gay activism, it's mostly color blind.

Oh, and let us not forget that there are also taco queens (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=taco%20queen).
Philicia, any names for white boys who are attracted to Cubans? Would that be a "black beans and rice queen"?

OK, I can answer my own question -
Tim Cook's BF is another tech zillionaire in Google (http://fastforward.blogs.fortune.cnn.com/galleries/2008/fortune/0801/gallery.BestCo_ex_Googlers.fortune/7.html):
(http://i2.cdn.turner.com/money/galleries/2008/fortune/0801/gallery.BestCo_ex_Googlers.fortune/images/benjamin_ling.jpg)
Taiwanese American.. very much a hottie and totally has that Asian looks that rice queens go for.
No luck for me then.. ;)

Oh man, this thread is way too funny. I love that there are two definitions of taco queen
"taco queen:
when a bitch makes the best fuckin tacos in the world
Whoa bitch, your tacos are better than an alabama hot pocket! You the taco queen!"

LOL. East Indian? Wtf? There's just one type of Indian- those from India.
The other Indians are "Native Americans".
-
South Asia = India, Pakistan, Bdesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka
Space wake up! Go back and read the thread up and look for 'your' comments :) East Indian is a race/ethnicity in US, not a country, all South Asians that you have defined above belongs to East Indian Ethnicity/Race.
Curry Indians is not Native Indians therefore, Curry Queens are homosexuals who are only into "East Indians".
Oh man, this thread is way too funny.
I agree this thread is too funny!!!
-
East Indian is a race/ethnicity in US, not a country, all South Asians that you have defined above belongs to East Indian Ethnicity/Race.
Well, whatever. I disagree with these labels. :)
The race is South Asian (if it all it is counted as one race). (Although that is also not accurate in any sense as South Asia in itself has several distinct races. The people in North Eastern India/parts of Nepal look more like the Chinese. Also the people in Southern India couldnt look more different to say someone in Kashmir and other parts of Northern India.) - Just like say someone from Southern Italy looks completely different to someone from Norway.
South Asia is racially very diverse.
-
Different cultures have different categories for "races" and the people they put in each one.
The US has long list of ethnicities/races and a lot of Americans have opinions about who is in which category. Its also cool that post-racial is growing fast in the US, just being Mixed Race and calling it a day.
I always get the impression in France that being a mother tongue French speaker is the first "category" and also if one is a citizen or not. Mother-tonuge french speaking, France-born guy (with mixed ethnicity) --- most French people would say that's a French man first. Still, they do have racism somehow and are struggling with muslims in their midst.
This week in the Swiss journal was an article about a immigrant family, parents here 20 years, children born here, muslim religion. Started getting deported a few years ago and were on their final last chance. They converted to christianity and the local authorities changed their tune, now they can stay. ???
Long story just to bring in one of my favorite words: Shiksa

-
The reality that these various terms maybe in use by some does not change the basic and implicit derogatory and racist quality of these categorizations and labels.
And any so-called "wit" is far overshadowed by the reduction of others and ourselves to terms which do not serve anyone well.
We'll be watching this thread as it hovers at the line of the acceptable and un.

Hell, them babies are little compared to the bugs we got in Texas!
-
In no particular order of preference:
Hamburgers. But not just any. Juicy, well done with both fried and raw onions. Have a few favorite joints.
Potato and onion pancakes (my own especially)
Spaghetti. Either oil/butter plain or some goopy meat red sauce
Bread and especially bagettes and crunchy rye with lots of caraway seeds
Southern fried chicken (again, my own)
Salad with lots of different lettuces and olives, onions, tomatoes, stinky cheeses
seafood paella
lobster rolls
More crunchy bagettes
Croissants but only in France
Thin, crusty pizza well done
Super well done french fries
CARBS HAVE GOTTEN A BAD RAP...lol

I got confused by the question, I just like fried chicken, no watermelon thanks.

Food preferences are in the other thread dearies.
Oh, and when thunter mentioned watermelon and fried chicken queen I thought we were heading south into racist monikers again in this thread. I never heard of a watermelon queen or a fried chicken queen.
I am confused now.

Mmmmmm....sort of. I was trying to push my point that these sort of expressions are pretty bleh. I didn't see the post that Miss Velez had posted. The whole thing tends to make me think of this....

I'm just hard presssed to rally behind shutting down a thread over the N-word, but then getting told to just relax about "cracker".
Oh, but yeah...I am totally a chicken (fried, not as in twink) and melon (yellow meat...with seeds) queen, I do suppose.

Croissants but only in France
Generally I agree, but I've had the great fortune of finding this hidden gem run by a Vietnamese family 5 blocks from my place that is every bit as good as what is found in France. And you have to get there by noon or they're just out of that day's offerings, like any good French shop. I had delicious almond pain au chocolates last week. I try and limit myself to only going once a month and buying a bag of four items, otherwise I'd pork up like Wumpy.
As far as pizza goes I still swear by the Grimaldi's location under the Brooklyn bridge on Old Fulton St.

I went to Grimaldi's once. It was a very hot summer day and there was a line down the street to get in. I've never seen a restaurant before with a line that litterly went down the street to get in, on a 90+ degree day no less.

Here is my lazy attempt to bring it full circle back to Jobs.
People will line up for anything. Hype is a great motivator. Others, like myself, will not wait on line! Unless it is by some banal necessity. Very poorly timed and unavoidable supermarket or post office visit. Etc. I can get into communal and hype affairs - festivals, parties, national holidays, parades. That sort of thing. A line for the privilege of having my pocket emptied?
People wait on lines to get into Apple Stores? To buy Apple products?
For a restaurant? In the hot sun?
For Black Friday bargains? To get stampeded to death?
For take away ice cream, because it's "so divine"?
First showing of some geeky movie?
Alexander McQueen at the Met?
There's something very PT Barnum about any product designer, cook, shop, whatever, that can inspire this devotional line-waiting.
Hat's off to that kind of mind! Jobs has it in spades.
-
Oh, but yeah...I am totally a chicken (fried, not as in twink) and melon (yellow meat...with seeds) queen, I do suppose.
By following the thread - I got this - So, if you are a fried chicken queen then you would be into southern boys/men ( If I am thinking right) but Mellon (Yellow meat with seeds) I am trying to figure out what that would be....
Oh, and when thunter mentioned watermelon and fried chicken queen I thought we were heading south into racist monikers again in this thread. I never heard of a watermelon queen or a fried chicken queen.

I am as confused as Mecch. :)
