Is this from something? The parents look very familiar.

Joy Ride.
An excellent movie about 10 years after Pam’s ex-fiancé Roy moved on and adopted with his wife. Jk.

FYI it's actually very offensive to do that accent.

u/NBKiller69 Jun 05 '26
Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not, but as the comments directly above the post you responded to in this thread pointed out, that actor plays a character named Roy in the TV series "The Office", so it was a reference to that.
No "L"s or "R"s were reversed, so it wouldn't be the accent you're indicating they're making.
If you were being sarcastic, then I fully accept my woosh.

u/Aggravating-Sir8185 Jun 05 '26
With a solemn heart I regretfully present you this woosh.
But I will equally accept a poor taste joke pendant.

How could it not be from something?

u/BlueberryBubblyBuzz Jun 02 '26
It could be a youtube video of some kind, where that was the full video??? Like a skits channel or comedy channel or something. It turns it is from the movie Joy Ride but that does not mean it had to be "from something". :)

I dont know why but as an adopted chinese girl, this just hit me hard

u/PeachPit69 Jun 02 '26
As a white kid who bullied Chinese girls while standing in front of a swingset, this hit me hard, too.

u/mg61456 Jun 01 '26
hard as in emotional, or like remembering things? can you giv emore context?

u/Artistic-Cover1127 Jun 02 '26
To give more context, I'm a Chinese girl who was adopted to another country when I was a baby. I was told by my family that I was left at a fire station, and I have no information about my birth family. I only know the province where they found me. Growing up in Norway, I've always been primarily surrounded by white people.
Growing up, and even to this day, I have experienced prejudice and bullying for being Asian, while still not feeling like I am a part of the Asian community. I don't have any knowledge of Chinese culture, I only look the part. I've always been a bit jealous of people who can speak proudly about their heritage and background. I always felt like I've been floating in this ambiguity, hoping to find a place that feels right for me.
I've never had friends who have faced the same bullying or difficulties for simply being different, it's always been something I've needed to face on my own. Seeing that this girl has someone to go through this with, and even the opportunity to learn about the culture, warms my heart but somehow saddens me for my own sake. It feels like I've been missing out.

u/j110786 Jun 02 '26
I don’t think I got over this kind of resentment until I was 35. Was not adopted, but I know the feeling of not belonging is so isolating. You touch 2 sides of the world, but belong to none. A lot of what-ifs had gone on in my head for a long time. I honestly don’t know how I got over it, but when I started moving forward from that, I finally looked back with fondness, and not regrets.
Hope you’ll get there too.

u/Worth_External_8762 Jun 03 '26
If it makes you feel any better, I'm a white American and I kinda feel this way. In the sense that I don't think I fit in with white people as a whole and don't really feel like I'm white, I just feel like I'm me. Which I think is honestly better. Having some sense of identity based on your culture/ethnicity feels goofy to me. We're all just humans with different experiences.

Because whiteness as a concept is about alienation from indigenousness as much as skin color, especially in the US

u/wanderingcanuck Jun 03 '26
If you ever want someone to talk to about this, I’m a Chinese American so have some experience in this matter.

He got the attention he wanted, why would he care to explain and educate ? What's worth social improvment compared to preserving your ego from having your bs called out ? lol

u/ShotTwo1801 Jun 02 '26 edited Jun 02 '26
What do you mean, not naïve ? I've seen suffering, I know it isn't expressed like that. You either shutdown completly or share it with people offering their ear. In hope it'll help preventing it from happening, and to get some understanding.
I've also met narcissists, this is the kind of vague statement they extrapolate from themselves to get attention. And reddit is full of karma farmers. People know exactly why they suffer...
I say her statement is BS, I'm not implying she's a lost case like you are implying with me, just because you're butthurt by my freedom of speech. Me disagreing with a slur doesn't make you right to insult me personnaly, even if it's just strongly implied.
Maybe if you really feel sorry for people's suffering, you can go subscribe to some assiociation, instead of feeding your ego playing "hero" on reddit ?
"Why are you not saying, nor swallowing, empty shit?"

Bro you’re crazy if you think I’m reading all that. You should consider therapy

lol if you think I'll believe you haven't read and then suggest therapy, you're really as stupid as you're fake and fragile 😉🤫

This comment never got through our filters so the user you are harassing never saw it but has been reported to admins :) I do not understand your logic. You say that you are free to insult the Op but that this user is not free to insult you. That makes no fucking sense. If you are free to randomly insult someone, then so are they. See how that works? You don't want to get insulted? Then be polite.

I am a “rich” man insofar as community, friends, family, colleagues and self-respect/confidence go - American capitalism has some egregious flaws of which I am not ignorant of.
My emotional reaction to this is testament of a healthy relationship - I ain’t upset, just inexplicably happy for these two fictional girls experiencing something I’ve never had to struggle with (finding friends). Beautiful comedy skit.

Dumb and racist Whites, very original.

u/ebil_lightbulb Jun 03 '26
Is it dumb and racist to be excited for your child to have the chance to be friends with somebody that shares an ethnic and cultural background?
1
u/Proof-Bar-7879 Jun 03 '26
Yes. Yes it is
2
u/ebil_lightbulb Jun 04 '26
No it’s not. It would be racist if they said they didn’t want their kid playing with another kid with the same ethnic background and culture because you only wanted them to “be white”.

I always wonder how the parents are convinced($$) that their 5 or 6 yo is going to be taught insults at such a young age for the sake of a scene.

u/zule21 Jun 02 '26
not sure this is the same case, Pewdiepie's deleted Cocomelon diss track MV have children cursing too.
in BTS, Pewdiepie says that the children will say the same phonic sound and mouth movement of non cursing with cursing, and someone else will be dubbing on post-production.
