My life, in construction paperComics

Just to chime in on the same theme as Abhi’s post below, I get a kick out of these Sikh Park cartoons from SikhChic.com:

There’s something about seeing myself represented in construction paper cutout, just like Stan and Kyle, which makes me feel like I’ve arrived. Now if only I knew what voices they had. The Nihang Singh on top probably has the same voice as Chef. The businessman below I’m less sure about.

You've also "arrived" on The Simpsons, in a less complimentary fashion. Here's the link.

Thought of it in combination with your post and Abhi's on King of the Hill.

To cheer up afterwards, I'll propose that the businessman have your voice. ^__^

hmm. yea, i happened to be flipping past that episode at that very moment and was slightly annoyed. then i realized how terrible the simpsons has been in the last 7 or 8 years (point in case - that very clip. was that supposed to be amusing, let alone funny), and that no one i know with half a brain or sense of humor even watches it anymore. and i felt better.

Naah sizzle, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, that's actually a brilliant satire of Gurinder Chadha's work!

Funny cartoons that are not offensive. Wow! What a great idea. I like them. They are cute. Thanks.

We did a fun interview with Dalbir Singh, the creator of "Sikh Park," here. He's actually never even seen an ep of South Park!

Gurinder Chadha movies are too sucky to warrant serious attempts at satire.


Simpsons is still awesome, people get too worked about Apu. Yes he's a caricature, but:
a) It's a cartoon...it's supposed to be a caricature
b) What inferences would you draw about native born Americans like Homer if you were to take the Simpsons seriously ?

In order to do that you would have to be Frank Grimes (or his son)... :)
