More from the article:

Most Asian students jumped for joy upon hearing the news. Student Mi-So Honee remarked, “Is so close to libelly!”

Other students were appreciative that the name was changed from the
Little Rice Room Place. “Besides being a sirry name, I couldn’t rearry
pronounce arr those R and Ls,” said Henry Joon-Kimyung-Jook.

ED’S NOTE: I’m not really this lacist… but then, again maybe everyone is

this kind of reminds me of halloween. you know, when people can buy "exotic oriental costumes" or other tasteless race-specific costumes. april 1st gives people an excuse to say and do all kinds of shit. i find this article real funny. har. har. har. you'd think that after all the dance hype the lounge would at least come with like, a dance studio. oh wait, that would be far too cool.
