We all know about the importance of saying the right thing at the right time, just as important as wearing the right thing to the right occasion. You don't wear red to a funeral or like many Chinese believe we don't wear black to house visit during Chinese new year.
But, is there a good time for a racist joke?
We probably crack a few at the bar with your close friends. (maybe you don't, I'm not sure.)
We can't crack those jokes for sure in the public or national TV.
Neither are we allowed to update your twitter, Facebook or blog with it because you will get judged, Retweeted and the gahment might also come and kick your ass.
But....
There are people who gets paid dollars to do it at a comedy club.

Our very local Fuzz - During Happy Every Laughter
Our local favourite - Kumar
I'm not complaining, I love stand up comedy, I love these guys but my point is how come we can let our hair down, take a chill pill and laugh at these but we get so agitated on other scenarios? Is it because we are behind closed doors? Is it because these people in the comedy club paid for the jokes so it's okay?
I'm not saying that we should practice racist comments or joke like a daily thing but I'm just saying sometimes we need to take things with a pinch of salt. That's the only way we can achieve racial harmony, when we don't take things so hard isn't it?
Anyway, love your race, love your friend's, have a happy ever laughter! (for those haven't watch one ah, pls go go go!)
P.S: to prove I'm not racist, this is my favourite malay friend and I - Fadilah. LOL. Oh a French guy, another Malay Squid and last but not least the Indo Minah. oh oh. and Mr. KFC.
