Michael Flux(@michaelflux):For the life of me I will never understand how “oriental” became an offensive term. It literally just means ‘eastern’ in the same way that “occidental” literally just means ‘western’. I’m genuinely convinced that the people who find the term offensive are simply illiterate and have never read a damn thing in their lives more complex than a tumblr post.

You can also call us "Orientals" if that helps to separate us from them. That's what the British have been doing And contrary to popular belief, it is not "racist" or "offensive" to us. Only the retarded politically correct judges think it is.
