Haw haw, there is a man named Nate Shinagawa and he is running for Congress if you can even believe such a thing, which these sparkling wits at WYSL cannot. Now, they don’t actually say “Me Chinese Me Play Joke” during their bit on Shinagawa’s hilarious Japanese heritage (per Right Wing Watch, he’s third generation American), and in fact the most sober of them tries to explain that it’s really just because Shinagawa is a young pup with no life experience (beyond the state county legislature, community organizing, and health care, of course), not the fact that they can’t even pronounce such a furrin name! But that’s sort of belied by the hilarity of the whole thing, which you can heart to your heart’s content right where it says “read more.”
They love you long time, Nate Shinagawa! We — eh. We were really hoping you’d be hotter.

YERROW GULL RIBER!
Shinagawa is where the Pokemon store is in Tokyo.
Lots of lovely shrines, too. Including one that was part of the start of the samurai legend.
What, the 47 Loyal Ronin? Those are only the baddest motherfuckers in the history of history. Technically their graves are next door in Minato-ku, though.
Yep, and such a beautiful site to be associated with those events.
It's sort of a mismatch when you consider how bloody the whole story is, but a pretty fitting tribute to Japan's biggest role model for loyalty after Hachiko (who also got a pretty sick statue).
They were right to poke fun at his bizarre name. Who the fuck names their kid "Nate," anyway?
Who names their family the Nojays?
Really white people with no rhythm? The Nojays, with their big hit "Love Bus"
Indeed. Folks that ain't got no ♪♫ Love Train ♫♪.
Yeah, like that Nathan Forrest dude, the one who started the Klan? If they found out that he was named for him, I betcha they really would love him.
Oh this racism is killing me today, now Japanese style.
I like Nathan for his take on military tactics, isn't he the one what said "get there fustest with the mostest?
That, and "one sheet per person, we're losing this god damned war ya heah, we can't just be going around giving out new ones every time you set yourself on fire with that burning cross asshole." He was quite efficient.
At least it's better than "Willard".
Or "Mitt."
Or "thad."
"Or Caaaaamerooonnn."
Radio WYSL guys, me hate you long time.
I have always wanted to own a restaurant, just so I could have miso soup in the menu, but I would call it "miso horny" soup.
I've used that joke before, but never successfully
It really is bad, I have no excuse for it.
At my restaurant, I'd serve Salmon Dave, or Salmon Ella.
If elected I'll bet he delivers.
He’ll win the erection hands down.
Sirry Asian. Poritics is for rear Amerikans.
"rear-amerikans"
Well, they are assholes.
Why am I supposed to be laughing at this?
I am kind of surprised that they didn't call him Wang Hung Low or Too Long Dong or something similar.
It IS odd, isn't it, how racism & imagination don't often accompany one another?
I'd like to hear him tell us who won the last world series….
The Hiroshima Carp?
How good are they, out of curiosity? Every time I go to Japan I tend to stay mostly in Hanshin Tigers' territory.
They ain't no Yomimuri Giants, that's for sure.
well we've outsourced everything else, this seems like the next logical step.
NEEDZ MOAR CHINK!!!!!!!!!
Oh, this reminds me to pick up my dry cleaning.
Remember to take ticky.
You know, if people are going to persist in not being white and male, the very least they could do would be to keep to themselves. This has got to stop.
Has anyone called him a chink yet? Debbie Spenditnow will be avenged!
Ching Chong Chinaman. (And not even an actual Chinaman, to boot!)
Yeah, Nate is a Jewish name. Looks like a clear case of gefilte fishy sashimii.
Hope he conjures up King Ghidorah on thier asses.
Bakayaro!
Shanae!
so desu ne
Bill Nojay certainly has a face for radio.
From RWW's article: "Note that Nojay’s comment about the “People’s Republic” refers to Ithaca and is one of the few things from the segment that isn’t racist."
Y'know, when mocking a Japanese-American as being from the "People's Republic" is the unracist part of your segment, you're really a very special asshole.
Well that was sweet New York. Are you trying to show Arizona how to put out some compassionate xenophobia?
There are swaths of NY that make Alabama pop off their John Deere trucker caps and go "Dayum!"
If memory serves, the 23rd CD is where the Mormon Church was founded by Joe Smith
I don't think "chinaman" is the preferred nomenclature, Dude.
He peed on the Dude's rug.
And it really tied the room together.
This aggression shall not stand, man.
YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR ELEMENT!
I am the Walrus
We're not talking about a guy who built the railroads here, Walter.
Especially if your ancestors are JAPANESE!!!
Yeah, that's the joke. Again.
He looks like a very sweet and caring young man, ready to make a difference for his country. He's sure to be irrevocably corrupted by party machinery, they like it when they're young, dumb and full of hope.
So you think your Kung fu is better than my Kung fu? I show you round eye! I now your Shogun in Washington.
Sukiyaki in every hot pot!
I know a good 300 or so year old restaurant near the Asakusa Shrine for that.
♪♫ If you knew Sushi, like I know Sushi ♫♪
Moo Goo Gai Poon.
He's a "county legislature"? All by himself?
Funny. He doesn't seem that big. Maybe it's a really small county?
And they say he hasn't accomplished anything!
"He's gonna lose because he hasn't done anything with his life"
Money quote from a wingnut radio host.
"He's gonna lose because he hasn't done anything with his life".
If gays have gay-dar, shouldn't it follow that Losers have Loser-dar?
WYSL ? yes, a bunch of racist Wysls….
Lovin some No BilJay
I keep thinking it is Radio Yves Saint Laurent
The People's Republic of Japan? Really? Well, I guess the only way to fight against the menace of creeping political correctness is to mock anyone who complains about xenophobia, and to be overtly racist
Tom Reed's racist friends have nothing to fear from me, though. I sincerely believe that bigotry is protected by the First Amendment, just like pornographic My Little Pony fanfiction.
Yes, let's play some furrin' sounding music in the background. That wouldn't be playing with racism at all.
Asshole.
They thought you libtards LIKE multi-culti stuff. No pleasin' you folks, is there?
Oh, yeah–it's outreach to his liberal listeners! How did I miss that?
If you slur chinese people you'll just want to slur them 45 minutes later.
OK, I know it is juvenile to make fun of someone's name, but…
Nojay? As in, this guy gets no va-jay-jay? Well, that would explain a lot…
Bet he has no dirty laundry
I'm ashamed I laughed at that.
Hey racist radio hosts — you know what happens to denizens of a powerful and influential country once they start giving away all their assets to rich greedheads, not taking care of their citizens, squandering lives and treasure in pointless wars and resting on their laurels for decades? Go look in the mirror and see if you can come up with an answer, assholes.
"Omigod and rice???"
These guys might get their frequencies scrambled: http://spaceweather.com/
Meh. 1.4. A flesh wound.
SOLAR FLARE + 7/12/12 + NOBAMA = 666 !!!
Why did I listen to that? I want to smack those racist douchebags, especially once they start going, "ha, people will call us racist, but we're not! Now let's claim that his name is impossible to pronounce even though it's said exactly like it's spelled and play stereotypical Asian music!"
Hooked on Phonics apparently did not work for someone.
Hahaha, yes, Wingnut, Japan and China are TOTES interchangeable!!! After all, they're all YELLOW, amirite?
Gotta love the rapid response of the sound tech mixing in the 1960s ching chong china beats in the background. Did they tell him to queue it up in advance? Or do they just have that one residing on the sound board in case of Asian Democrat?
I find this post easy to turn Japanese to.
Oh thank god, I knew I could count on someone else to join me. Beautiful.
Such filth gives me the vapours.
Does "the vapours" mean a boner?
You should go look at the "duo-car"/Steppenwolf discussion.
For the phallic car masturbatory illustration material? I'm not sure that's exactly what I am, um, yeah, okay that works too.
WINNER!!!
You really think so?
That Don Imus impression would work better if Nojay wore a cowboy hat full of stringy gray hair.
The next time somebody says "Democrat" when they should have said "Democratic" I will personally shove chopsticks up their 直腸 sideways.
Knock knock.
Who's there?
Bill
Bill?
No, Jay.
lol!
teh hoi polloloi approve this message~
lol! gotta go, brb!
"It's me- Dave!"
Dave's not here, man.
Orange you glad I didn't say banana?
Thanks Dewey! lol!
-"Isabelle."
-"Isabelle Who?"
-"Isabelle necessary on a bicycle?"
If Japan is a "People's Republic," who did Barry bow to in order to get the Teabaggers so upset?
oh, Western New York. why do you disappoint me so?
They make good wine in the Finger Lakes though.
It's that clear, clear Lake Skaneateles water…
Off topic: Are all Wonketteers getting blanketed with sexy ads for mutuallybeneficial.net? Or is this one of those "smartly targeted" ads that's just telling me what I want to hear?
Is that the one with the chick scissoring the car's rear view mirror?
Never seen it.
Often enough….
I was afraid to mention it. Considering the wierd sites that I frequent, it wouldn't surprise me if it was a targeted add.
We've gone from "don't eat meat" to "I'll eat your meat".
I have an AARP ad.
Apparently everybody gets the nekkid girl. It has been much-discussed today.
I get Chex. A fucking box of goddamn gluten-free fucking cereal. I find it very difficult to masturbate this. Furthermore, I am dubious that any finger-banging Thursday night take-downs occur at a Chex® Party Mix.
The car keys get soggy in milk.
I'm getting Ice Cream and heating systems…
This just in, the candidate was heard to respond, "Yes, I'm very impressed that he can pronounce my name. Can he pronounce "Blow me you red neck shit stick"?
See, that's how it would go if people REALLY had free speech.
Da nuh-nuh-nuh-nuhh-nuhh
DUNT-DUNT-DUNT!
Amirite?
Stay crassy, Nojay.
I'd hit it.
+1
I thought we already learned in 2008 that "community organizers" don't have any REAL RESPONSIBILITIES. Unlike mayors of Methland.
Bill Nojay looks like he's got more chins than the Tokyo telephone directory.
Also, Bill has apparently not read two important Chinese proverbs: Man who lives in glass house should change clothes in basement. Or, crowded elevator smells different to midget.
"So I made a few ethnic slurs on the air. Sashimi!"
Sorry one quick question.
What the hell kind of name for a racist asshat is "Nojay"? What the fuck is that? Maybe it's OK because it rhymes with KKK but I can tell you it sounds like he is trying to hide something.
If I was Shinagawa, I would urinate in these jackasses' colas SO HARD!
Extra MSG, please.
He is in the district next to mine, the soon to be Congressman will have the last laugh.
On the other hand, it got Sarah Palin's hair all hot and tingly.
Since the airwaves belong to the people (not the People's Republic of Ithaca which is what the talking but unthinking heads were actually referring to), perhaps the FCC ought to look into pulling the station's license since it appears to be spreading racial hate.
Bill Nojay looks amazingly like a used car salesman, doesn't he?
Is Tom Reed a conehead?
Too bad his name's not Fukudome.
I work with a few Asian people. They have names like Wang, Yu, Ming. How the hell am I suppose to pronounce those names? Give me common European names like Ottokar Přemysl!
And don't forget Dong!
Godzilla is gonna stomp their lily white asses.
At least they didn't play the Oriental riff followed by a gong.
This is the best the Republicans can come up with. That is really the worst part of the story.
Nothing is as low as a gweilo.
So, Neal Boortz announces his retirement and Bill Nojay rears his ugly head. Is there no end?
I would like to dedicate this song to Tom Reed.
Can't shake the devil's hand and say you're only kidding.
After about the third "Democrat primary" I just stopped. I can take a lot, but I can't take that.
If he'd only say "Swedgin" and "Cocksucka" a few times, we'd all tune in.
Spouting all that hate with that fakey corn-fed, home-grown in Kansas, vocal inflection.
Is that Hachi, the Akita?
My Japanese student tells me that it's a popular meeting spot in Tokyo. As in: "let's meet at 6:00 by Hachi's statue."
Yup.
The statue is pretty iconic and right by the station, which makes it ideal as a meeting spot.
