    Would you say that to a Chinese person face to face? If so, it would probably be a tad antagonising.

    Chinese people not being able to pronounce certain letters of the Awphabet.

    At the end of the day, their English is class and we've all got appreciate that from any nationality but it's a joke. We get ragged to **** from the Chinese for all looking the same... apparently. And I'm not taking the piss, that's the actual truth.

    Taking the piss out of a Chinese accent is no more racist than taking the piss out of a scouse or geordie accent. I wouldn't do it to their faces either, especially not geordies, the violent semi-feral lunatics.

    Changed his name on Twitter to Elliot Li so there could be some foundation in this...or maybe not.

    Apologies, maybe casual racism was the wrong term. Still would suggest it's lazy stereotyping, which I don't find particularly amusing and I think some would find insulting. And I would suggest getting told we all look the same could also be classed as racist by the way.

    Very informative. That's your noble deed for today, now go find something else to take umbrage at.

    Glad you found it informative. And thank you for the reasoned debate on the subject matter.

    Just ignore them Mateo. They all clearly think they are being hilarious. It's strange that they probably wouldn't feel as inclined to be quite so hilarious as to walk up to a Chinese person in the street and start speaking like that. (Obviously taking piss out of a mate or a colleague you get on with is different and not comparable).

    Laughing on the internet at your own 'jokes' doesn't make them funny.
