Accidental Chinese Hipsters


Check out this hilariously amazing website called Accidental Chinese Hipsters.  My life is complete.

Another phenomenal photo and story have been sent to me through the Internet ether from SF, perhaps transported by tiny, fat, Chinese boy cherubs.“The guy on the right is my friend Simon Tam, the lady on the left is a random lady in San Francisco’s Chinatown. Simon saw this woman and asked if he could take a picture with her. Funny thing about this story is that Simon posted this picture on Facebook and her granddaughter, who is also a camper at the YMCA where Simon serves as an advisor, commented on his pic, correspondence below:” Thanks to submitter Andrew Lee and Simon “Die Low” Tam for this one. There is a lot of inter-generational love, understanding and teasing going on here, and to me that’s one of the most special things about Asian culture. Filial respect isn’t just about obedience, it also means including parents and grandparents in the playful side of life. Now, will someone please explain to me if “dah-ma-jerk” is some kind of freestyle rap contest or what?
math + rappers = mappers? 

so good.
