Q: Is cursing someone's ancestors the worst insult?

I get in scuffles with Chinese all the time in buses or subways. I want to know what to say in case one of them really pisses me off.

just say "ta made" or "ta made bi, shen jing bing" No need and try to have a fight to the death at a bus stop is there?!? Insulting anyone's ancestors anywhere is kind of over the top... Someone did that to me they would be spitting Chiclets...

From what I have seen I wouldn't dare get in a fight with a Chinese. There seems to be the phenmenom of beating up one chinese guy and 20 others showing up right quick

You get in scuffles all the time? Could you explain that a little more? I think a further explanation would help a lot here.

Q: What are the dont's when you are in china?
A: Chinese are generally pretty tolerant friendly and accepting whatever
A:Chinese are generally pretty tolerant friendly and accepting whatever foreigners do.  I spent 15 years in China but I wouldn't say there are that many don'ts....Don't assume that many people speak English though and learn some Chinese. Don't speak much about politics unless you want to praise Chinese system.  -- Natalie363
