A few parts that are true:
1. We do talk loud because that's just how our language is.
2. If we want to talk shit about people around us, we will use our language (for most part :P )
3. We do take our shoes off when we walk in the house.

There are some other good videos out there... Hopefully this girl get mocked for a while....

I hear you but intragroup assessments are different than intergroup assessments. The observations that the many ethnicities and cultures of "Asians" can make of themselves and each other are distinct from nonAsians sitting around and making observations for the purpose of mocking and labeling.

LOL @ some of it
@ some of it. It's always dumb to revert to sexism (or any other -ism) in response to someone's stupidity (and what some would consider a form of racism).

My wife tells me all the time I talk really loud on the phone when talking to my mom (she's caucasian), even though I don't really notice. You have no idea how many times I get yelled at for wearing shoes in the house...crazy Asian rules.

I know. That was more like a "if you mock me and I will mock you back" mentality. I just hope this can all go away. Unnecessary drama. (hell, by posting this I'm spreading the drama also )
