Um... no... it's quite purposely a parody.

If it was badly made, it wouldn't have gotten a 90% at Rottentomatoes:

The same reason fundies watch Desperate Housewives – to have something to get outraged about.

When are Americans going to come to terms with their Sinophobic racism.

Ever since the end of the Cold War, Americans have been looking for someone to be "the evil enemy" and the poor old Chinese, who want little more than to sell you widgets are the best you can find.

Hence the endless and unprovoked China bashing. What is it with Americans? Do they need to have enemies to make them feel good about themselves or are they just racist?


Dude, they're afraid of me. I'm the ****in' yellow_peril!!!!

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

that's too aggressive.

Make them word plays, like you tried, but make them math jokes. Meaning that they are math jokes, not word games. You see the English love word games and jokes, so Koreans must love math jokes.
