Q: so, shall we introduce ourselves a little bit?

How long have you lived here? 

What city do you live in? 

What do you do to pay the bills? 

How old are you? 

Married? Kids? 

 

I have lived in Beijing for two years. I teach history at an international division of a public high school.

 

I'm 24 and single.

 

What about you?

Years.

Not even sure. Somewhere north. No, not that far north.

Teach econ.

Is this a Chinese get-to-know-you 'conversation'? 

Are you single and hot? And female? If so, I might tell you.

Shining_brow:

"are you single and hot?.... and female..."

 

I love how that comes last in the list :p

 

For me, it comes first - but then, I'm picky!

bill8899:

Those factors are paramount, but I simply answered the questions in their original order. It's not like I said much in my first answers. 

angel If you must know, I added the 'female' as an afterthought after typing 'single and hot'. I figured some smartass might ask if I had a preference! I do not spend much time and effort editing my forum comments. Perhaps I should be more careful. I congratulate you on finding another angle of attack. Bravo!

Hi everyone! My hometown is England. It's a beautiful city. You should go there. I live with my mother, my father, my grandmother, my grandfather and my little sister. I like to watch TV and help my mother cook. My mother can make lots of delicious food. You should try some. That's all.

"How old are you?"

At minimum, a 9-dimensional perspective of space-time is required to comprehend the age of a Great Old One. The linear, human concept of time is insufficient to calculate the temporal dimensionality of my being.

 

"What city do you live in?"

Why would my essence be confined to a mere three dimensions? The restrictions you humans place upon yourselves are mind-boggling.

 

"Married?"

Marriage isn't a concept that makes much sense to my kind. We have this other thing that involves chaos, tentacles and darkness, but humans wouldn't appreciate that any more than I appreciate white dresses.

 

"Kids?"

Do you mean progeny? Yes. But the way they came into being was considerably more nightmarish than the gooey spawning process favoured by mammals.

 

"How long have you lived here?"

In R'lyeh? A long time. "Slept" would be a more suitable verb.

 

Spiderboenz:

All hail the Dark Lord!

Scandinavian:

and here I thought the concept of space-time was how women grow to take up more space over time. (note: Scandinavian is generally well educated in the cosmos and of course would know the proper use of "space-time" but at the same time he also finds it relevant to be concerned about the growth of our loved ones)

Samsara:

 

@Mateusz:

In his reasonably sized apartment at R'lyeh, lethargic Samsara sits about daydreaming.

 

@Scandinavian:

Be thankful you don't live with a 9-dimensional woman. They really fill out a room.

I'm a 35 year old Virgo and my hobbies are strangling small animals, masturbation and golf. I like long romantic walks down the beach, usually by myself.

I live here because I am mad. But I am not as mad as my mother in law. Her mad logic is beyond my comprehension.

China is driving me mad. But I will take it for the sake of my wife and daughter.

Difficult to explain. I could earn 3 times more at home. But I stay here.

This is my wife's home. This is an amazing kalidascope of a place.

I love China.

Difficult to explain.

This is my home.

This is my families home.

But it is shit. It's a shit place.

That's what makes it special

Ive lived on good ole Gaia for 2 score and 2 years.

 

In Wuhan ( I prefer to call it Wooo-han, or Who-ville), and I live among the Who's of Whoville, but they arent nearly as friendly as the fictional Who's of Dr. Seus's book.

 

I pay bills 98% of the time with either cash, or my bankcard. The remaining 2% is by barter. 

 

Although I attempt to educate, by being an educator... I find myself more in a role of entertainer and/or game show host as of late.

Hello my name is RandomGuy, I like to eat and sleep. My home is DeGuo do you know it? It is very beautiful and delicious food, you should go there and try eat zungenwurst, very yammy! I hope we can be friends and you teach me your language (then I will stop calling you and ignore your calls when I realize that learning a language requires efforts from my part too). That's it thank you.

I'm coineineagh. I'm the poorly-spelled Gaelic word for rabbit that stuck as some tosser's username all over the internet. He sure is quite the tosser for caring so little about his online privacy, and even more of a tosser for announcing that fact. But nothing beats being a former English teacher who switches from 1st to 3rd person in one paragraph, on the tosser scale.
Do you still know nothing about me? Or way too much? I know what you're thinking: What a tosser!
