a random girl rated me highly on OKC, but the only information in her profile is that she is Asian and working on a graduate degree in math...
I want to poke fun of the fact that she's Asian and good at math, but I'm not sure if the sarcasm will translate well for a first message... how does this sound:

Hey… how's everything going? So, from your profile I gauge that you’re Asian and you’re good at math (please read that last sentence with a hint of playful sarcasm). What do you like to do for fun?
advice?

How was your week?"
