I work in a predominantly Asian area and 3 of the 4 people I work with, including my boss are vietnamese. The other is Korean. I make Asian jokes all day with them because we are close like that and I can get away with it and vica versa because we all respect each other. As was said before, it's barbershop talk. The problem on a public forum is that not everyone here are friends and everyone is not going to be as receptive to the racial banter. I don't think anything was said out of real hate or malice. People just need to learn to back off sometimes. It's fairly common knowledge that oriental is a racially insensitive moniker. If it wasn't known then it sure as fuck is now so everyone just move on.
