Mola-mekka chala mekka hola hayla hey!

Hawaii is mad at Saturday Night Live for mocking their tourism industry, claiming their workers are underpaid, and their biggest export is "fat white tourists!" They argue SNL portrays Hawaiian culture as being "compressed" for the sake of their tourists, thus sullying their proud culture and heritage.

Obviously, they have the right to be upset, but let's face some facts:
(A) without Tina Fey or Amy Poehler anymore, SNL is meaningless.
(2) tourists don't stay away from Hawaii because of the recession; they only stay away if the Lost cast is on the interstate.
(D) when the hell is Hawaii ever going to stop being a huge vacation destination?

and finally...

what makes Hawaiians think they're so special that any other place in the world can't attract their own

fat


obnoxious


nerdy


stereotypical tourists?
