...third-floor hallway. My killer concealed himself in the room across from ours, and I can still hear the terrible popping sound his twin machine guns made as he burst out into the open and riddled the walls, doors and floor with with bullets—er, nerf darts. I spun, too late, and managed to get a shot off, but it sailed wide, and then my assailant opened up with a second round and I went down in a hail of darts...

...take the last group--just for the sake of argument, you understand. If I wanted to set about offending Harvard Asians (not that anyone would, mind you), I might draw a comic strip that contained an Asian-American character who happened to go to Harvard. We'll call him, er, "Mr. Wu." And then I might refuse to make this "Mr. Wu" perfect--I'd give him a flaw or two, like pronounced flatulence or a fondness for reading Foucault and Derrida in his spare time...
