Kal Penn, UPenn, Wait...what happened??
This IM conversation about Kal Penn that I found through Racialicious has been cracking me up all day. My favorite part is when NjDe$iQTpie complains that GujuHottiee120586 made her sit through The Namesake twice:
…so effing BORING. waaaah, my parents r immigrants, n im like sooo confused about who i am, i think ill date white girlz until i get wat i deserve from some desi bitch. then ill cry some more in some guava orchard b4 my arranged marrage with some chic in cheetah-print heelz who smokes which ill agree to bc now ive returnd to my rootz and shit after living with some widow n a bunch of lower cast peepz in the motherland…waaaaah
Hee! I love learning more about other diasporic cultures in America. I'm still not exactly sure what desi means, though. I know it's an adjective about being South Asian. If anyone would like to enlighten me, please feel free!

And ... Desi means ... read this.
Yeah in college my Indian friend would use the term Desi, but I got the sense that it was a derogatory word.
So I watched the trailer for "The Namesake" and was like I can't wait. I always liked him since I saw him in "Malibu's Most Wanted." The class he is teaching sounds interesting, would love to attend. You know Swampy's litte bro goes to Upenn, maybe I should be nicer to him.
