It's all in fun, I hope no one is offended.

 WHAT’S IN A NAME

 

Whenever he said his name,

The laughing wouldn’t quit.

He cursed being oriental,

With a name like Ho Lee Chit.

Cute. I thought oriental was politically incorrect. I don't understand why. But humor is correct and universal, and you have that market cornered.

Thanks for the Chinese joke of the day! Made it for me.

True story: My mother had a poor bullied classmate by the name of Ossie Marie Krye. When we moved to another town in junior high school, Ossie had married a guy named Newman and our classmate in junior high school was her son, Alfred E. Newman. And, I recall that his claim to fame was when he shoplifted a watch from a local department store and as he walked out the door the manager grabbed him on the sidewalk in front of the store.
