If you don’t know that, you’re a moron. ~ Hayden Schlossberg We always had a very multicultural group of friends. One thing that struck us was that no matter our ethnic background, we were very much alike. But whenever we saw Asian or Indian characters on screen, they were nothing like our friends, so we thought we would write characters like them. Jon Hurwitz in "Mining Post-9/11 America for Laughs" by Dennis Lim, New York Times, (April 20, 2008) When we start to write, we’re under the assumption that everyone knows racism is bad. If you don’t know that, you’re a moron. Harold and Kumar’s attitude toward racism is more frustration at having to deal with idiocy than moral outrage. We try to create a world where racism is stupid. Hayden Schlossberg in "Mining Post-9/11 America for Laughs" by Dennis Lim, New York Times, (April 20, 2008)
