Florida is stuck in the 80s | Yumi Nagashima

Do you guys like travelling? Yeah, good, good. I love travelling, too, and I was just in Florida performing stand-up comedy, and I have to tell you Florida is stuck in the '80s. [laughter] So, I had to tell them, you know, stop smoking indoors, stop blaring Phil Collins, and most of all, stop calling me "oriental woman..." [laughter] And start calling me "Japanese goddess." [laughter] [applause] Thank you. Um, my mother in Japan is also stuck in the '80s. She told me, "Yumi, "I want you to remember this: "behind every great man, "there is a great woman. "I want you to find a nice Japanese man, "become a great wife, "and become a great mother." I listened to her very carefully and said, "Screw that." [laughter] And I moved to Canada. [applause] And became a stand-up comedian. [laughter] So, I live in Vancouver now. I love Vancouver. Vancouver is a beautiful city, but nothing compared to Winnipeg. [laughter] Well, when I walk streets in Vancouver, lots of creepy white men come and ask me... "Konnichiwa, "do you want to go for sushi sometime?" I think it's slightly racist-- like, 75% racist. [laughter] Well, let me explain. For example, when I see an attractive, let's say, a Mexican guy, would I go and say, "Ola, "do you want me to help you pay for the wall?" [laughter] [applause] I wouldn't say that... because it's racist. [laughter] So maybe next time when I see a creepy white man comes to me, I would say, "Hey, "you creepy white man "with awkward social skills, "with borderline autism, with halitosis, "and funky body smell... [laughter] "...maybe you want to go to Japan "and try to teach English there?" [applause] Because that's what 75% of creepy white men do.

This should be in /r/teachinginjapan

Due to the non-jokes, frustratingly slow delivery, and above all, the noise her mouth makes in between words, I can neither laugh nor get hard to this.

That was a chore to watch. Omg.
