I didn't think that referring to things as "Oriental" was acceptable anymore. Am I wrong? Or is this 1952?

RANDOM QUOTE I LIKE RIGHT NOW....
Expecting life to treat you well because you are a good person is like expecting an angry bull not to charge because you are a vegetarian.

Came over from PW. Congrats on your win, but mostly want to say thanks for your mis-spellings. I can't tell you how many times I make errors on my comments, even after proofing them. I want to immediately fix them, which you can't...Anyway, thanks for making me lauch and feel normal.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you can use the word Oriental when talking about a "thing", i.e. an Oriental Rug or Oriental Food. But you cannot use it when referring to a person or group of people.
Niki has it right on the nose.
Oriental = cream of sum young guy
Asian = Chinaman named after a duck's dork
Any questions?
