Never mind holding up video calls from loved ones joining in remotely, and forget the hundreds of photos pasted on the wall... no, the most "Asians photograph EVERYTHING" stereotypical part of this is that someone decided to take a photo of people standing next to a deceased relative.
Of course, I say all that yet I actually packed my camera when flying up to Oregon for my cousin's funeral years ago. It wasn't until I arrived that I thought, "the hell did I bring THIS for??"
Finally, BringBackMo might have found the "Two Wongs" crack offensive, and I guess that's his right. But BBM should be more worried about the most recent contributor, KevinFroom. Kevin warned us about Jimmy Tran. But he also had choice words about Angie Tran. That's right, he doesn't like Jimmy Tran nor Angie Tran. You might say Kevin is being...
