This is a link post Tis the Season for Synchronicity and Shot-for-Shot Remakes
This morning I was trying to remember what films I had seen the late Ms Heche in and I came up with Psycho and something else with Harrison Ford.
Later on I killed some time by watching the last episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds.
And then this pops up.

This is a normal post He has one gag,
which is effecting a terrible asian accent to pretend the dickish things he says are in some way a joke.

This is a normal post Affecting. Sorry, not sorry.
But yes, his Uncle Roger act is mostly cheap lewd comments and the sort of complaints about foreigners making Asian food more to their liking (which is also apparently 90% of what Italy does if YouTube is to be believed*). I mainly watch to see him get angry when people really butcher the recipes.

I haven’t watched his standup but wouldn’t be surprised if it is mostly an Asian version of the “have you ever noticed how black people do X and white people do Y” stuff from the nineties.

* I put mushrooms in bolognese and bacon in carbonara**. Get over it.

** But not cream. I’m not a complete barbarian.

This is a normal post In that context, effecting is the right word

This is a normal post Nope. The accent is an affectation.
