When I first met my future my son in law, he told me, with a laugh in his voice, "I'm Jap-i-can!" Ha! He is half Japanese, and half Mexican! IT WAS GREAT!

Way to go Brad!!!!!

[@haruc4312]

hey, Brad! I would love to see your dad on Tedtalk :)! That was great lessons for everybody

[@legalservices8856]

He's not downing Chinese, he just didn't see himself as that so it felt alien to be called that. It would have been the same if they had called him "hey Icelandic boy." You get the idea... anyway he is handsome and funny no matter what his genes.

[@wellmindsschool5335]

His smiling is so infectious

[@johnkeithrobinson7399]

good job brother keep up the good work

[@Poetry4Peace]

One thing i realised of myself is how i catastrophe things and ALWAYS think negativoo n bad things very much cyncic

[@kushikushilotv105]

That's what i do. I laugh at myself everytime they call me chinese, japanese or nepal. Chinese people even talk to me in chinese because they thought i am a chinese too. By the way, i am a full blooded Filipino. 😆

[@777-Phil]

But I'd rather have JESUS+LOVE, obey JESUS+LOVE, give JESUS+LOVE, and live JESUS+LOVE. O LORD, be our Alpha and Omega ... and Thine be the glory, power, and honor, forever!

[@enisghtfool5159]

Saw the thumbnail thought this was gonna be between to ferns. Lol

[@jimhammond9193]

Forcing me to purchase anything, is unconstitutional! It robs me of my Right to pursue my own happiness. And because I didn't buy what I was being forced to buy. The Government stole hundreds off my dollars. And told me that I was in violation. I want MY MONEY, BACK.

[@atomicfrogproductionsllc6375]

Love This Rant Blow; My Own Mind at Least Once Per Day; and it truly is Self Improvement...lol

[@praisetochiedeh7478]

I came for Obama...But Brad is awesome too
