Race Wank? In Who Fandom? It's just as likely as you'd think...
As Whomageddon rolls on, [info]doctorwho  brings us another sterling gem. Or rather, two bright turds of wank, coupled together to form a synergistic pile of perfection.

First, [info]cringer1982 shares that he's written a very pointed letter to the BBC about how they have portrayed Asians in their recent episode Turn Left. He neglects to mention that he's white as the fresh driven snow. Irish, in fact.

BBC officials respond with a letter that has nothing to do with anything.

Some people don't see his point.

[info]myfavouriteplum is just as mad at Turn Left, but being Chinese, with an appropriately Chinese icon, people seem to be taking her protests a little more seriously.

Hilariously, seriously in fact.

It was a bit like if they had "Planet of the Africans" and had people dancing around with spears and singing "Mammy". Do. Not. Want.

Also, the anon meme continues to be offended by everything.

Who wank, I just don't know how to quit you.

Good thing: The guy sends a letter/e-mail of complaint to the people responsible for Doctor Who. While I'm sure the racism debate on LJ and other fannish circles does a lot of good in that it makes people think about character portrayal and all that, those essays and discussions aren't going to change the show. So, good on the guy to complain to the actual people responsible for the things he found offensive.

Bad thing: Well, like the anon meme said
"LET'S PLAY FUNNY/NOT FUNNY

FUNNY: FANDOM_WANK
NOT FUNNY: RACISM

SEE THE DIFFERENCE?"

Wow. Even I know race wank isn't funny. Next time, bring Twilight wank instead. That's a guaranteed funny.

I hear "Who Wank" sung as an existential version of "She Bang".

And every time Roberta signs her posts, I read it as a random interjection of her name.

I loved Turn Left.

So there.

P.S. I'm white as the fresh driven snow. Well, with a slight tan.

I don't know about him, but I eat potatoes, drink Guinness and guard my pot of gold all the time. Sounds like a good Friday night to me.

I'm just ASTOUNDED at how people STILL haven't learned that F_W and racism don't mix.

Do we need helpful diagrams? I think we might.

My mom's chicken curry!
[info]seraphtrevs
2008-07-03 09:20 pm UTC (link)
2 boneless chicken breat halves
1 large onion, sliced
3 tablespoons veg. oil
1 can sliced tomatoes
1 teaspoon grated ginger (or 1/2 teaspoon powdered)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt (or to taste)
3 tablespoons curry powder
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 cup yogurt (plain)

Cut chicken into small cubes. Heat oil in large skillet and sauté onions (long slow cooking at this stage is the secret to a good curry! :) ). Don't brown - just cook for about 10 minutes until nice and soft. Add garlic and ginger and continue cooking for about 2 minutes. Add chili powder and curry power and stir and cook about 1 minute. Add tomatoes (with juice!) and mix well. Add salt.

Stir in chicken and cover. Cook over low heat about 30 minutes until chicken is done. Stir in yogurt until smooth.

Serve with rice and naan and death pickles!

Love,
Sera's mom
