RK House - NO PORK!!!

It is undeniable that the video is side-splittingly funny, and intended to entertain. Much like racist jokes that are so commonly told over lunch, in schools and offices, it is an exposure of the unseen sentiments in our society. Just like the Shetty controversy in the UK or Borat in the USA, these 'exposes' are both funny, yet serious. With their mass appeal, they create awareness of racism or segregation within society that no government campaign can achieve.

Which do you prefer, hypocrisy or openness? Where is that line between funny and insensitive drawn? The theme of that video was not to ridicule Muslim practices, but to highlight the poor pronunciation of the food assistant, like the antagonist mentioned.

True buddies are not afraid to point out each other's faults bluntly, whether jokingly or seriously, and yet still remain the best of friends after the correction.

Woo~, I talk alot, don't I?
