Well, we don't know when he took that hard turn to the right. I get the impression that he's just gone further and further out to sea since getting expelled. Obviously he was trying to do political stuff, because the TV ratings column was what got him fired. But that piece (what I could read of it) was soft enough to leave in a baby's crib. It wasn't until after he got fired that he went from "blah blah nanny state" to "TV ratings are a liberal conspiracy to destroy my life." I could be wrong, I just get the impression that it wasn't until his fuckups started causing him serious life problems that he really went over the edge.

Alternately, I wouldn't be surprised if the Sweet household still had dialup internet and he has to take turns hooking into the phone line.

We know he doesn't have cable. I'd bet he has dial-up.

I don't care if Sweet makes his deadline, but in the real world "it's not my fault" doesn't work as a consistent reason.

It could be DSL. That only requires a phone line.

And we all know Sweets has never functioned in the real world in any significant way. Who knows, maybe missed deadlines played into his firing too.

"But I only missed two or three out of like a dozen! Nobody told me three little mistakes could get me fired!"

It's possible that he might've made several politcal columns that were simply cut for their... *ahem* controversial nature, and the Ross Perot one was the only one that made it through either due to the editors trying to reel Sweets in in an attempt to get something decent out of him or an editor simply taking a hacksaw to everything irredeemable in the piece.

Yeah, but if they were never published that's the same thing as having never written them practically speaking, at least as it relates to getting "tons of fan mail" etc.
 
Retcon klaxon!

So Tinaay is Japanese with a proper Nipponic name still not a proper name, it seems - but when she's in America she goes by a transliteration that sounds like a Chinese or Korean name. Seems legit.

That still isn't a Japanese name, Sweetie.

Should have gone with "Chie" for the personal name.
 
"I have decided her name was some shit I just made up to try to rescue my ridiculous story. Leave it to the liberals to piss and moan about stupid shit like 'that's not actually Japanese' or 'you're still racist as shit.'"

I'm amazed that he actually changed it when he knows it's wrong. Still wrong but still.
 
This name thing really got to him I guess. Maybe he doesn't like the implication he's racist toward Asians? Don't worry Sweets, we totally know you are. It's pretty clear at this point you think China, Japan, Korea and possibly Vietnam are all basically interchangeable. All Asians look alike amirite? Why stop at being racist toward black people, right?
 
Ironically, he probably could've saved himself by burying the issue instead of trying to change it. All he's doing is showing his horrible ignorance of Asian cultures. I'm pretty sure most of us really didn't care about the stupidity behind his supposed Japanese friend and the comic book equivalent until he decided to try and justify it to the evil liberals.

While he didn't admit he was in the wrong in denying his ignorance of East Asian cultures in that earlier post where he quoted me, or that the first name he came up with was stereotypical sounding, ignorant, and potentially racist - at least he changed it to something that doesn't look potentially racist (even if incorrect), and he managed to put in the effort to look up the characters to write it in. I'm actually impressed there.

It seems that his exchange student friend may have had a positive influence on him. If not for her, I'd expect to hear more "made in China" type jokes. Shame he never had a black friend. Either that or he just has a fetish for Asian women.
 
Sweet strikes me as the type who doesn't understand why naming a generic asian Japanese character "Tin Boo Tee" is racist. He's not trying to retcon it because he feels bad, or thinks he did something wrong and wants to correct it, he's changing it because he's trying to prove he was right all along, and the Kiwi Farms PC police were overreacting as always.
 
Sweet, being the socially unaware goofball that he is, is unable to comprehend why people call him a racist. In his head, Sweet Bro doesn't see himself as a racist. As usual, his autism prevents him from seeing what everyone else obviously sees. He can't understand why his remarks about black people are considered "racist" so he blames the evul liberal PC police.

You know why he changed the name? He got offended over you guys implying he was a racist because of this "Tin Boo Tee" character so he trying to save face. He hoping this change will convince us that he's totally not a racist. Well Belch, I believe you're not racist, you're autistic.
 
One reason I said I was impressed earlier is because I was expecting Sweet to keep the name the same, while resorting to some lame excuse claiming that the name was still accurate and not stereotypical and potentially racist (and possibly "parodying" what we say with Whitewash Jones speak).

"Kids today just don't understand vintage cartoon humor."*

*(that was the excuse Sweet used on Youtube to defend against accusation(s) of racism regarding that one revenge "cartoon" where that one guy from ASU was turned into blackface at the end after having all this violent stuff happen to him)
