Got an email this morning from the Q and the subject was “you’ll love this bag longtime.” Did they not remember the owner, Amy, is from Asian descent??? That is such a slap in the face.

How is a obvious typo considered a slap in the face?  Definitely looking for something to be insulted about.

Where did the phrase me Love You Long Time come from?
 
 
The phrase "me love you long time" originates from the 1987 film "Full Metal Jacket," in which a Vietnamese prostitute approaches an American soldier. It is widely considered among Asian-Americans to be racist and sexist. McMahon apologized to Cheung for the offensive remark.Jul 1, 2019

@AndreaG222 

 

Can you please share a screen shot with us?  Those of us who didn't get it would like to see it too.

 

Thanks.

This won't last long.

 

ETA 

I'm part Asian and there's a lot more of this kind of stuff going around, a lot worse, and has been for a long time...way long before that 1987 movie came out.🙄

I don't understand the outrage at all.

Wow.  If this email was really sent,  it's a huge error.  Even if not intentionally written, it's really an enormous mistake.
