Gene Feng, better known as "Genie", is a Chinese-American youtuber specializing in comedic short skits that satirize the parody lives of an Asian (mostly Chinese) living in an American environment. His skits usually range between the "Super strict and perfectionist Asian parents/people" to "Bomb defusal". Beforehand, he also ran skits of "Why everything is racist", but in the latter date, the type of scenario has been mostly discontinued. But regardless of the scenario picked, zany and wacky HilarityEnsues.

Genie's skits also has a recurring cast members, such as Genie himself being the OnlySaneMan, Ding Dong with his EyesAlwaysShut and embodying the hilariously wacky 'harsh Asian parent' stereotype, Genieffer being Genie's DistaffCounterpart and embodying the crazy feminist movement (including Karens and SJW), and many more. All of them PlayedForLaughs and also [[ActingForTwo played by Gene Feng himself.]]

His skits has nothing to do with the [[OurGeniesAreDifferent genie creature]]. Also compare with ''WebVideo/StevenHe'' or ''WebVideo/CalebCity''. Can be viewed [[https://www.youtube.com/@Genie_ here.]]

----
* BombDisposal: One of the recurring types of skits in Genie's videos. They always fail because most of the skit is spent on Genie and Ding Dong arguing.
* CaptainPatriotic: Parodied. The show features "Captain China", the Chinese counterpart of ComicBook/CaptainAmerica. However, he looks nothing like a CaptainPatriotic, it's just Genie with a black plastic bag as his outfit (due to low budget), and he sometimes end up not as heroic as his inspiration. Of course, all of them are also PlayedForLaughs.
* DistaffCounterpart: Genieffer is literally Genie with a wig. This concept is also parodied when Genieffer purposely removes [[InsistentTerminology their]] wig and reveals that they're not really a girl, but [[AmbiguousGender something else.]]
* DoubleEntendre: This whole series is chock full of this, usually leading to the "US National Anthem ending"
* EyesAlwaysShut: Ding Dong. It leads to the RunningGag of "With what eyes". But sometimes he does open it, after hearing an arousing homosexual offer.
* InsistentTerminology: Genieffer, supporter of the LGBT movement, always reminds everyone that Genieffer identifies with "They-slash-them".
* NegativeContinuity: Almost everyone tends to get shot and die ("Aughh~"), or the area is wiped out with the bomb explosion. However, everyone comes up just fine in the next skit.
* ObnoxiousEntitledHousewife: Although she's never a housewife, Genieffer is usually the go-to character to spoof this concept. [[AmbiguousGender They're]] usually seen spewing about the female empowerment concept and is an overly insistent that their opinion needs to be heard. [[InsistentTerminology And pretty insistent that they identify with "They-slash-them."]] Usually, all characters decide to just shoot them than deal with them any further.
* PretentiousPronunciation: Often playing the pretentious 'hardass' Asian stereotype, Ding Dong makes a point to pronunce "Asian" not with the default pronunciation, but like saying "Eye-sian".
* RunningGag: There are several running jokes within Genie's skits:
** The OP power of rice. Usually Captain China has it, but Ding Dong sometimes displays this power too.
** Ding Dong requesting to see something, and Genie sarcastically replying with [[EyesAlwaysShut "With what eyes?"]]
** Ding Dong explaining his inexplicable superpowers with "Because I am Asian!" before shooting someone dead.
** Bomb about to go off with "TACTICAL NUKE INCOMING!!"
** Genie's high-pitched moan "Aughh~" when someone dies (usually played by Gene Feng, so it's the same thing for everyone)
** Genie or Ding Dong make [[DoubleEntendre an accidental homosexual innuendo]], leading to a realization that both enjoy it (Ding Dong then usually opens his eyes). Genie/Ding Dong then pulls off his belt while the USA's National Anthem plays and Ding Dong says [[MadLibsCatchPhrase "I LOVE [relevant topic with a homosexual innuendo in]!!"]]
