I did not know that, would you mind elaborating ?
My understanding is the term originated in the car-modding scene as a derogatory way to refer to the way east asian people modded their cars. While I'm sure it's not what the OP intended, it's a term with some baggage
from the 70's and 80's imported asian cars were called 'rice burners' ('rice rocket' for fast asian motorcycles) and tuning your car with visual improvements that didn't actually add horsepower was known as 'ricing'.
source: grew up knowing car people during that era and heard this casual racism along with 'beaner' for anything hispanic
@pacmondo and @cubbytustard thanks for your answers :)
How embarrassing... Arriving late to the hyperstitious slur cascade
