Could you identify with either person in this video? How? Did you find any of the comments offensive? Explain. How would you answer the question, "where are you 'from?'"

I didn't find any of the comments offensive. But I did like it when the "Korean" gave the "American" a taste of his own medicine (and he didn't take it as well). I'm not sure how I would answer where I am from other than by the town I was raised in. My family came from all over the place... Ireland, Germany, England, and a bunch of other places.
I didn't think any of the comments were offensive. I did like how the American got all butt hurt. My family is mostly Eastern European so I would just say that general area.
I could identify with the woman. Cause when people see a Asian looking person they automatically think that they're Chinese, Korean, or Japanese. I only found the mans comment offensive. Like is that all you know Asians to do is cook ?
That was funny. I couldn't really identify with either party. And if I got asked where I was from, I would answer, "I'm from Norfolk, but my dads side of the family is from a small town called lingenfeld near a former capital of the former holy empire."
I would be really annoyed if I were her. It was funny when she turned it back on him. He had no idea what was happening. I didn't find them offensive. He can't help being stupid. I would probably answer Virginia but my family is from all over Europe so I could say a lot of places if I wanted.
I didn't really find the comments offensive. I think the lady's comments were a little harsher than the man's but they were well deserved by the man. I think Asians are very confused by the common public. If asked, I would probably say I was from my mom. I think that would put a funny look on the person's face.
I don't find any of these comments offensive, I thought it was funny. If someone were to ask me I would probably just say I'm from VA, but not sure where my family is from.
I didn't think that their comments were offensive. I thought it was funny when she started to joke on him. If someone asked me where I'm from, I would say from America.
I literally just LOL'd. This video was great and really exposed stereotypes in a humorous way. I didn't find any of it offensive. People just get too butt hurt over the smallest most irrelevant things. If someone asked me where I was from, I'd probably say the south. Maybe then they'll start making comments about big trucks, talking with a fake accent, and thinking I'm gonna marry my cousin.
I can't really identify with either of them. I can be bad about wondering where someone is from, but I would never be that rude or stupid. I didn't take any of the comments to be offensive. Obviously they weren't offensive to me because I'm not Asian. I liked how she did the same exact thing he did to her. I don't know how I would answer the question, "Where are from." I have no idea where my family is from.
I can relate to the people in the video. It is bad but I can't tell the difference between many ethnicities. I did not find any of the comments offensive. Since I'm not surrounded by diversity I am ignorant about the subject. My grandparents are all from England.
I could not identify with either person. It is hard for me to tell wear people are from. I didn't find any of the comments offensive. If someone asked me where i was from, I would probably answer I am from Virginia.
I didn't really find the comments offensive. I could identify with the woman. When I see an Asian, I assume in my mind that they're either Chinese or Japanese. If someone asked my where I was from I would answer "From the womb. Any questions?"
I can relate to to the people. I cant tell the difference between chinese and japanese, but I can tell the difference in there food. I didnt find the comments offensive. I would say im from Virginia.
I could relate to the woman because I am Jewish. People ask me ridiculous questions all the time. I found the "your people" offensive. We should all be treated as one not as certain groups of people. I would tell people I am from America and proud to be.
Some people don't think about what they are saying. They don't think that it may offend the other person.I would tell them that them that I am from my mom. I think this would be offensive to people are easily offended, which is a large amount of people. When I wonder where someone is from, I keep it to myself. It isn't that important. If I was trying to start a conversation with someone, I would find something else to talk about.
Yes, I got the woman, and the man. Just by the way she looked and the way he looked and spoke. The mans comments were more offensive then the woman's. I would say my mother, and continued to do what I was doing.
I didn't think any of the comments were offensive. The world is very stereotypical now-a-days and this is so true people always assume people are from places when they don't know. I am horrible at guessing where people are from so I don't even try half the time. I was born in the old Obici hospital in Suffolk.
I didn't really identify with either person. Yet, I can see how they would be offensive to those people. If someone were to ask me where I was from, I would say Virginia. But if they kept asking I would tell them my family is from Ireland and Germany. People always say that they can tell because I'm pale and have red-ish hair.
I could see how one could take offense to what the guy was saying. I would reply with "I came from my father's seed, and my mothers egg". Personally I didnt find any of the comments offensive because i dont let stuff like that get to me.
I don't think I could identify with either of them. I don't find any of them offensive I think its funny. If someone asked me where I was from, I would probably answer it with Franklin, Virginia. If they asked again I would say many different places.
I don't identify with either of these people. I thought some of the comments were rude, yet funny. I would answer this question I came from my mom, because I'm not sure of my ancestors background and down the line what I have in my blood. Or I would just go with England like the man had said.
I didn't find any of the comments offensive myself, but I'm pretty sure they could be offensive to those of different nationality's. I would simply answer the question by saying "my mothers womb". -Dixie G
Sort of I guess. I found the girl to be really funny and the fact that the guy had no idea was pretty hilarious. It was rude to me that he changed the way he talked because he assumed she wasn't born in the United States and that she didn't understand his question. She wasn't really offensive at all, just trying to find humor in what he did to her. I would be like "I'm from Virginia and born in Virginia, my mom is from North Carolina and my dad from California."
I could not have identified the people in this video, because the women looked like she was from.My family is part Cherokee Indian and Part Irish. If someone asked me where I was from , my first thought would be Carrsville Va.

I didn't find any of the comments offensive. They were all what those certain cultures say. I would say I'm wherever you want me to be from ;).

I did not think that these comments were offensive. Also, I can not identify with either person. I would say I am from Windsor, VA.

I could not identify with these people. I did find the guys sterotype to be offensive. I would say that i am from Virginia.
