DENVER – Two college students were recently bonded for eternity after realizing they were the only two Asian Americans in their Medieval History course, astonished sources claimed.

“Look, make fun of me all you want, but I wanted a break from all this bullshit about the myelination process of posterior root ganglion neurons. At the end of the day, we all just want to learn about medieval kings being beheaded because they were dumbasses,” said Anuska Patel, a third year neuroscience major. “I’ll be honest, I was a bit nervous when I walked into the room and only saw White men who very obviously were philosophy majors. But then, I saw a beam of light come from the door and I saw another Asian person. I felt like a burden had been lifted off my chest,” said Patel.

The other student was also relieved when they found out there was another Asian person in the class.

“Man, it’s honestly so great. When I saw her sitting there, I quite literally threw my backpack across the room, onto the desk next to her so I could be seated with her,” said Emily Truong, a sophomore studying computer science. “When I reached her, we shook hands like Schwarzenegger and Weathers did in Predator. I can already see the shock on my parent’s faces when I tell them I’m not the only Asian who knows the difference between a falchion and an estoc,” said an enthusiastic Truong.

At press time, both students dropped out of the class after learning about the 30 page minimum term paper.
