A dedication to all those times we said we were only going for one. *A late note, but I just wanted to add how thankful I am for my coworkers during my dark times. Thanks yall for being there when even I didn’t want to, listening to me blabber on, and making sure I found my way back home. Obviously, the music is by the UK band Spector; I just bought the MP3 on Amazon. Spector “All the Sad Young…

Finger Blasting: It’s Such An American Term 

An old post about #fingerblasting inspired by #amyschumer video and Irish slangs I learned from the J1s #sorryasianparents

A repost from this old piece I did for KokoandAirec: https://kokoandairec.wordpress.com/2015/07/08/finger-blasting-its-such-an-american-term/ By Airec Sype. (NSFW Content Ahead) Finger Blasting (verb) – The act of inserting one’s finger(s) repeatedly, with vigorous force, into another person or their vagina or anus. “Bob is a little pissed that I finger-blasted his ex-girlfriend last night at…

Exploring Microaggression: Is everyone a racist? Can Comedy Justify a Little Racism?

showing my asian booty by the bay bridge By Airec Sype. Edited by Broscobar   “You’re pretty cute, for an Asian guy.” One of the many phrases that I’ve heard in my life that opposes my ethnicity as an Asian-American. That disclaimer lingers in my mind; are they trying to flatter me and what attractive features I actually possess, or are they trying to sneak an insult about the lack of attractive…

#sorryasianparents EP18 - Our Take on the First Dreamstate Harbor

My written review and video podcast on #Dreamstate Harbor. #Dreamstateharbor #Trance #Festivals #sorryasianparents #EDM

Last weekend, Insomniac took over the Port of Los Angeles with its newest addition to the Dreamstate series: Dreamstate Harbor. With only two stages, this rave by the bay is smaller when compared to the massive DS SoCal coming in November. But, this intimate group therapy was more than enough to barge into my heart with all the big festival feelz. The first stage I went to was The Hydra because…

Okay, I’m finally over the festival flu, and I’m ready to share my 14th Electric Daisy Carnival experience with y’all! With over 166k Headliners attending each night, according to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police, this was probably my biggest EDC. I had a fantastic time, but there were a few bumps down the rabbit hole for Insomniac’s 26th Windy-C (sorry-not-sorry for the pun). Quick SparkNotes…

Hello, hello. I am back with some new faces. This video is a cut from a #sorryasianparents recording where we ended a 3-hour conversation with anime. Will, Noble, and Erick joined me discussing growing up in the Central Valley and the anime we watched. The whole video is about an hour and a half, but I felt like it was a crime to cut some of the laughs out. So, essentially, this video is four men…
