In the spirit of Whitney McNally's horribly misguided "spoof," Gothamist imagines that Fairchild Publications is passing around a memo like this:
If you hear someone yelling, "File Whitney McNarry!" that's really "Fire Whitney McNally!" - the Asians sometimes have trouble with the r's and l's. And stop by HR to pick up your coolie hat; they are being distributed so you can enter the building without getting pelted with pelted with thousand year eggs or egg rolls. And we recommend you watch Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Kill Bill if you haven't. They know kara-TAY, kung pao chicken, and some other violence-without-weapons techniques. Remember, Asian women can be fierce - the lotus blossom thing is a trick.
