I guess its a nice way of saying they turned slant eyed like asians. yellow...LOL. its like the politically correct way of saying asian??? instead of saying "my friends were smoking a bunch of weed and they were looking chinese".
And don't anyone be saying I'm racist cuz I said that, I am chinese. I think if you can't make fun of yourself and your own culture than you cannot make fun of no one else.
yellow fever is an actual sickness but yellow fever in today's terms is a white man or woman that can't get enough of asian culture and asian men and women, everything in there home is asian etc etc... and I'm not talking just a couple chopsticks in the utensil drawer. My father dated one from the states, so I know that shit is for real.
I know when I was in elementary school I always got made fun of and called me chink and gook and whatnot so I hated my own culture and myself at one point. my parents would talk chinese to me and I answer back in english saying that were in canada. I tried so hard to be white when I was a kid... I look back now and its like wow... now I'm proud of who I am. and totally regreted it.My father told me as long as your skin color is the same you are chinese not canadian not even chinese canadian. and I never knew what he meant but as I grew up I know exactly what he meant. he was right...
