Something has to become popular before it can become "old hat".
Only a few dozen people have seen "The Chinese Thing" at the most.
It still has miles to be go before it becomes stale.
Don't worry too much. Meade tried out the "drunken meskin' thing" last December along with "The Chinese Thing". It is nice that Meade doesn't discriminate on which offensive stereotypes he chooses to mimic.
