O'Donnell loves all Mr. Robotos
One time Comedienne Rosie O'Donnell has come under fire for cleaning out Old Country Buffet on steak night and offending the Chinese community on her mind numbing blabbering US talk show. The bad actress-turned long time obvious lesbian-turned TV host has been criticized for being just that and by ethnic groups for using the phrase "ching chong" to represent the Chinese language on The View earlier this month. But 44-year-old bottom teeth smiler O'Donnell says she was unaware the remark was racist and offensive to Chinese people. She says, "To say 'ching chong' to someone is very offensive, and some Asian people have told me it's as bad as the n-word. To which I said what about "ping pong"? That's a game, a fun game, and we could do the same with "ching chong". Instead of hitting a ball with a paddle across a net we could do something that uses math. All Asians are good at math, right? But as far as "ching chong" goes I didn't know that.' I'm sorry for those people who felt hurt or were teased on the playground by big boys like myself. But I'm also gonna give you a fair warning that there's a good chance I'll do something like that again, probably in the next week, probably right now, not on purpose. Only 'cause it's how my brain works." O'Donnell finished her sandwich and statement and walked away but then turned around and screamed, "Ching Chong!" and jumped into her office and slammed the door. Moments later, the horrible Dennis De Young song "Mr. Roboto" was heard blasting from O'Donnell's office. However, the completely useless and unknown Unity:Journalists of Color, which represents ethnic groups in the media, says O'Donnell's remarks "really didn't sound like an apology, especially with an Arby's Big Montana in her mouth," and are calling for The View producers to publicly condemn the host's comments. Producers of The View released a statement stating, "We had no idea that anyone could care so much about a show filled with a revolving door of irrelevant woman. We are as shocked as you are that this show is still even on the air. Although we have to say we are very impressed that anyone can watch the show for that long and walk away from the show understanding any of the foolish blubber that these over paid cackling statues have said. So for that, we thank you. Oh, we have no comment on 'ching chong' thing. Domo Arigato!"
