0:00 [Music] Welcome back to another episode of the careful boys. And uh hey, all of us obviously come from different Asian ethnic background. >> Hey, >> Caucasian. >> Thanks, Bart. >> Steven agreed. >> Keyword ████ >> Me and Bart are hyperbrained this session. By the way, >> that being said, which Asian mom you guys think is the scariest? >> The scariest? >> Cantonese. >> They're pretty hardcore. >> No, legit. Cuz my buddy was Sly Wong was Cantonese growing up and his mom was ████ crazy, dude. >> Honestly, I think Cantonese, too. But go ahead. >> She was a yeller, bro. Like I jack knifed him through a closet door one time and the closet door fell off its hinges and ████ and she was like just yelling at me in Cantonese for like as the as long as it takes to go up like 18 stairs out of a townhouse. >> She was yelling at you? >> Yeah. Oh yeah. >> Cuz on some real ████ she never yells
0:50 at the guest. She yells at her own kids. She didn't do it. >> So I don't know what the hell she was saying. And I didn't have subtitles. So she might have been yelling at him, but I thought she was yelling at me. I'm subtitled. >> Yeah, maybe she was just ranting. >> Well, cuz I'm guilty Catholic boy. I just assume she's yelling at me. >> Yeah, usually they're yelling at their own kids. >> Yeah, you could literally do all of the problem making and then the son will actually get yelled at. You'll be fine. >> No, we would watch wrestling and then cuz he was literally me like everyone was. I could just I would just pick him up and I'd do the I did like the razor razor's edge through a closet door and like >> Did you mean to throw him through the closet door? Yeah, cuz that was the coolest way to do it. Kids are dumb, dude. >> I was probably seven years old or eight years old and he was like way littleer than me, so it was so easy to do. >> So yeah, I raised her among him through the closet door and then his mom his mom
1:41 heard it obviously and then she comes downstairs and sees what happened. She's losing it and he's he's fine. He was just like, you know, he was selling it, >> but he was fine. >> He's selling it. I I agree too cuz I feel like out of out of all the Asian families that I've seen at least, I think Cantonese families seem like the most that's matriarchal. >> Like the dad I feel like is just in the corner minding his own business. >> Oh yeah. >> Dad was never even home. >> Just like reading a newspaper or working or smoking a cigarette and it's the mom that's like whoop. >> I half agree, but I still think most made sure it was Filipinos because the dads are gone. But yes, I totally agree on the other end. >> Yeah, >> that doesn't count. >> I saw my buddy's mom, her name is Patty, by the way. Probably not her real name, but they changed it or something, you know, one of those things. >> But she I saw her every day basically
2:33 for like six years. I saw the dad maybe four times. >> That's true. >> Yeah. Dadsby. Yeah. Dad was cooking at the restaurant or smoking a cigarette or >> like doing business in China. >> And I thought I didn't see my dad that much. this kid like >> like this kid probably his dad came home and like he's like you know 18 weeks older every time. He's like whoa these kids grow up fast. >> Yeah. Cantonese dads are overwork and then Filipino dads are just over ████ >> sick. >> Filipino dads are over their first family. >> They're probably good dads at the other one. >> I know. >> Got to make up for it. >> Energy is being spent somewhere. I think Chinese moms are scarier to me than Filipino moms. >> Yeah, definitely Chinese moms. >> Do Filipino moms like beat your ass or >> Yeah, but it's like they you could tell
3:23 it hurts their feelings to do it. >> You know, it's like one of those things where they don't want to have to, but I think like they're just so sweet. Filipino moms, >> you know why I think Chinese moms are like ████ crazy? It's because I think they take it out on their kids because they get it taken out on them by their husbands. >> Oh. >> Oh, Chinese dads be with beating wives. >> The cycle of abuse. >> Whe But I think it's a not directly correlated. I think it's indirect actions. So, it's not like you uh Chinese dad beats his wife, therefore she beats her kids. I think it's like Chinese dad like puts her in her place in their own ways, their their unspoken ways. So, she has to feel control and put something in its place. And the way she lashes out is by yelling at her kids and beating them.
4:13 >> Damn. >> Deep. >> That's scary. >> You agree? >> I don't know. >> Cuz I've I've only seen I've only seen, especially with all my cousins, the Chinese ████ moms and stuff like that, all the moms are like, >> they all speak Cantonese. >> Yeah, they all speak Cantonese, right? All these very, very strict moms, right? And the dads are always very like quiet, seemingly somber. But then when you see like that hint of interaction between the mom and the husband in that sense, suddenly the ████ tail between the legs mom is like getting scolded for something or being told about something and you're just like, "Whoa, that was weird." >> Yeah. >> I thought you were the strong one. >> Is it stereotype that Korean kids like had cool parents kind of? >> No. >> Okay. Cuz there's a Korean kid on my block named Kyle Kim and he his mom was
5:04 like pretty dope. And like same thing, dad wasn't around much, but Kyle Kim had Mario Paint when like that was basically you had to mortgage your house to get Mario Paint back then. It was hard. >> Is there a stereotype that Korean parents are cool parents? I think there's a stereotype that Korean moms cook really ████ good. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> My perspective on Korean moms is they're they seem to be the most nurturing out of the Asian moms. Like every time I went to a Korean friend's house, they bust out with the snacks, the pears, and then they always like look pretty like a 50s moms. Like they're always done. They're not like in curlers. They're like >> And these are like middle class Korean. >> Yeah. >> Like Well, whenever I go to a Korean friend's house, their mom's always like, "You there's games. We're playing games. They bust out with the pears. We get to eat pears and snacks and like >> And she was worried about my soul." >> Yeah. I thought I thought like Japanese parents were pretty cool.
5:54 >> I thought Japanese parents were cool, too, when I was a kid. Yeah. But but but this chick, she was like scared. She was like worried about my soul. Like she wanted she was like, "Come to church with us." And I was like, "I'm down. >> Oh, she's nurturing." And >> that's ministry. That's different. Yeah. They >> There was like three, >> they have to save souls. >> There was three ladies on my block who were like trying to save my soul. So it was like obviously my mother, and then Kyle Kim, his mom, and then Carol Chapen, who's a white lady, and they wanted me to do like Baptist ████ >> Yeah. Yeah, but you don't think secretly they're all just like, you know, kind of in competition like, yo, we got to save this white boy trying to save you, bro. Because they also got to go flex at the church. >> I saved this white boy. >> Yeah, for sure. >> They could get your whole family potentially if you >> And they were flaunting me too in public quite a bit, too. >> I think there's a So, >> we've adopted this white >> like I'm a like I'm a Birkin bag. >> I knew it as a kid.
6:44 >> But I heard from my Korean friends though, they get ████ up by the mom and the dad. I hear mainly the dads. I think their dads be ████ them up. >> I dated a girl. She was Korean. >> She got jumped by her parents. >> By both. >> Hey, but so did you. >> Huh? You got jumped by your parents. You're Japanese. >> Oh, yeah. >> That's true. >> Yeah, but they were cool. >> But you you deserved it in that story. >> Yeah, you deserved it in that story. >> They went easy on you. Technically, >> you told your friends the least you could play Sega Genesis. >> You made up a you made up a rumor against your own family. >> No, he told him the truth. He's like, he's like, "My parents don't really like it when you come over. You should probably leave." >> Yeah. And I was like, "Yes, they can leave so I can play my video game." >> We're going to play sock tube. >> And you ████ up the whole garage. >> Oh, yeah. No, I did a lot of ████ >> Oh, and the piano. >> You cut strings of snail. You cut them
7:34 just like the way you was cutting snail. >> You made your dad leave. You made your dad leave the house. >> Not just me. I'm not even talking from my experience. I'm talking about my friends experience. I'm talking about my family members. So, like on the surface, super nice, super ████ cool, right? I have family members where they told me, >> you would never expect this from their mom. They're so sweet. They're little angels. And she goes, "Yeah, she was so mad at me one day. She woke me up in the middle of the night, ████ wrapped my head with duct tape, and said, "Oh, you want to talk? Try to talk now." So, she's like wrapped up with ████ duct tape, tied up her ████ arms, and then just basically kicked her ass in the garage and be like, "You're sleeping here tonight." And I'm like, "Your mom ████ did that ████ I had no idea." cuz she's such a sweetheart. >> Maybe she maybe she would lying too just to ████ get some siblings. >> No, but her siblings and everybody was like >> it's like >> Yeah. She's like, "Kiss me, Joe." >> Like the ████ that I be saying, they're
8:25 like, "Your mom was like, "Yeah, my mom was like that, too." And then my my my church friends have similar stories. So, I think Japanese people, they don't like lose their cool and like they don't like >> they don't lose their cool in public. >> They're not like Cantonese moms that'll cuss you out and ████ blow up and then everyone's around. They'll be like, "All right, all right. We'll see." And then they'll be like, "You see that cold bath that's happening right now? That's yours. You ████ up. Go in there." And you're like, "Oh, f███." >> I don't know what class of Korean this was, but growing up, our neighbor, it was the kind of house, like really small house. They were probably lower middle class Korean. And um the door was always open. It was always just a screen door, so you could always see what's happening in the house. And then I would come over and the mom and dad, the mom would always be in a bathrobe sitting at the table like look so depressed >> smoking a cigarette.
9:15 >> Yeah. Smoking cigarette. They're both just chain smoking all the time. And then I would just go, "Hi." And then I would just go into the son's room and we would just like play with DJ stuff. And I've never seen them do one thing different other than just sit there and just like >> they're just smoking and they're just quiet >> and they never yelled at him or nothing. >> And they got a grandpa jacking off in the back. It was always grandpa. >> What do you What do you call that? That's >> kind of chillaxed. >> For me, it was uh whenever I ran away from home, I only did it twice. I always knew I could count on my Korean homies mom to take me in. >> That's actually really weird >> cuz like I just know they're not going to judge me. the parent taking in the kid and then like not talking to the parents and then also based off his stories also like >> really hiding him when the parent came over and questioned
10:05 >> cuz they'll actually like level with me like if I go to like my other ethnicities friend's house the first thing they'll do I'm going to call your parents I'll bring you if you need a ride back home I'll like they're they're going to be the parent now right when I go to my Korean homies house they're like come in you can sleep in the other guest whatever I'll make you some food and stay here for as much as you need. It was almost like they like >> she underground railroad you >> Yeah. They met me where I was at >> and then just treated me like >> that only makes sense to me on two things. Number one, Bart shows up. He's got bruises and he's bleeding. >> Yeah, you got And then number two, the parent shows up, asks where Bart's got a ████ handle in his hand. He's drunk and ████ like waiting to whoop his ass with a bat. >> And the bat has barb wire around it. >> I haven't seen my my my dad didn't show up like that either. But other than that, I'm like, >> it feels more like a white family would do that.
10:55 >> I show up like this looking for my son. >> That's hella weird to be completely honest. >> Two different Korean homies. >> She hit you like it you were Jewish and it was World War II, dude. That's crazy.
