I think it is pretty low and tasteless, but then I think Apple's own video is low and tasteless as well (contrary to many people who think apple's advertisements are brilliant, I think it is just a bunch of bullshit)
So yea, if they are trying to imitate apple, they did a pretty good job.

hahaha.... they did a pretty good job. whatever - it was nowhere as offensive as i thought it would be. they didn't flat out insult any of the other chinese clubs.
that being said - whoever said that Lan parties aren't fun....? :P

So yea, if they are trying to imitate apple, they did a pretty good job. | Took the words right out of my mouth. Geez wtf is this...I'm not offended, but the videos made me lose quite a bit of respect that I had for CVC before. The characters just made CVC look like a bunch of stuck-up snobs, and having worked on a few Honger club ski trips before, I know that they're way more successful than they make it look. Granted, I'm referring to the big one with three clubs behind, and of course one of those clubs are always big douches when it comes to promo. Honger club vs. Honger club, Hongers win?
But back to topic, I'm totally not impressed with the vids. Not very classy there, guys.  | |

I also wonder if that honger guy is in CVC, i mean how can he sell his own peoples like that? Still I lol'd at the video

That guy was clearly not Honger, just look at him and listen to his lousy accent. That being said, his "DIU" was pretty well done. 
I remember being introduced to the histories of CSA and CVC when I was a first year, and I could see that those clubs at least were integral decades ago to the Chinese community at UBC. Not too sure about building multicultural bonds, I don't know enough to comment on that, but this clearly is just making fun of the less-Canadianized Chinese folk.
Any more news on what's happening now? AMS drop the hammer on them yet? Responses from the other cultural clubs at UBC?

Honestly, i think this has been blown way out of proportion.
How often do you see Native Chinese people making fun of GWAI LO's and foreigners. Chinese people in general make a shit load of derogatory comments.
Also, i have a friend who is Japanese and when he attended a typical CSA, TA, Yours, event, they only spoke in chinese. Are they not discriminating against other ethnic groups?

LOL : "hey, who dat gwai lo?"
I find it pretty funny, but I can't see how thats offensive in any way and i'm honger...maybe it's because i'm not as "honger" as the "typical hongers" are but I think its acceptable..

lol u see shit like this all time, i thought it was funny
however, for an established university club to be posting this kinda childish shit makes them look really unprofessional
even if it is representative of the views of many of its memebersm to openly post something like that to the public is pretty low...

a club is a club, especially if it's for social purposes. Just let them do what ever the hell they want.
screw social expectations society imposes on them!
We're all hipocrites anyways, I sure hope that KIM HO, sent all the national news papers complaints regarding Russell Peters, Dave Chappell, and every other non-white comedian in this world. Cause i'm sure they all make racial jokes.
