Am I being too sensitive? As an Asian, I am offended by this smiley that is used on some other goldfish boards.

I thot it's pretty cute. Afterall, for such a small graphic, it does capture the essence of a typical asian. The rice paddy hat merely helps the tiny graphic illustrates the point that this smiley is asian. Without it, the creator will find it difficult to illustrate its identity. The small slanted eyes.... kekeke.... but it's true. Sometimes I see drivers on the road with such tiny eyes I wonder if they really can focus their attention better. rofl.gif And of course, many find ladies with small eyes... sexy.
