I met Chan Long at a street bbq.
I laughed when he told me his name so he pulled out his ID card.....according to the missus, he was indeed Chan Long. I bought him a beer.

The fact that your visa expires, and also that sometime in the future you may get another one, has no effect what so ever on your Bank of China account. Now, if your passport expires, and you renew it, I suggest to you to bring the old one with you if you return to China, since it is the one on record at the bank. You will have to see an officer and show both passports (the old expired one...

Personally, I enjoy the little things in life. I don't need a BMW (would like to, but it is far far down the list). I'd rather have a fresh milk than an UHT milk etc.
But the example of eating cheap noodles to get an iPhone well. Perhaps it is not as stupid as not saving up and getting the same iPhone on some expensive contract.
At my MILs place, there...

I'm led to understand that in Chinese there is no difference in connotation between "promotion" and "propaganda".
Don't worry, I'm sure Jiang Qing won't show up and dress you as a red guard and make you do a few pirouets

You can have my points Hulk.
As far as I can tell there's nothing I can actually do with them anyway, and they just remind me how much time I waste online instead of getting a real life.

No."Over-feminized" men are a threat? Hilarious. Excuse me while I whip up a spinach and feta dip and pull my loaf of sourdough out of the oven. This question sounds like it came from a 13 year old boy. I'd put "Over-feminized" men at number 273 of the possible threats to China's future. Let's list some threats that aren't completely ridiculous: Pollution, overpopulation, economic stagnation/...

No idea but personally I like feminine men, I've never had an effeminate man try to glass me, threaten to stab me, or put a bottle over my head.

Sun Yat Sen was inspiring, he had a dream, he worked to make it happen. His work have been usurped after his death by scumbags. Yeah, like that bald military genius...
Zhou En Lai, who was a torch of rationality in a world of madness.

I had teeth pulled, root canal treatments and implants made in different hospitals, one of them was this "No 1 People's Hospital" and the others were private. I felt the guys did a better job at the People's hospital than the private clinic for 10% of the price, but you might want to get ready for some old school treatment style.

What's the point of being ahead of the rat race if you're not waving a banner to let those behind know they're losing?

I wonder. If the pets hit it off, get married and leave home, would the former owners have them for dinner?

It's not bad music, it's just different (oh, I think it's crap but that is my opinion) Music styles are linked to culture. So just because we don't like it, doesn't mean the music does not have its place.

456 . Are Chinese workers useless because of low pay or do they receive low pay because they are useless?Sep 12,2014
It's a low cost economy, designed to take best advantage of Western greed.
China supplies the low cost workers, the western consumers get low cost products and the companies controlling it make a lot of money.
It's an amazing success story, and wages are on their way up. So the plan to free millions of people from grinding poverty is working...

I have tattoos on my arms (from my service days) and on my neck (some crazy thing I did years ago). I don't problems so long as I don't show it in class. Having tattoos in China means you are someone from the underworld or so it seems but on a foreigner they mean different things. What Sorrel said is true, foreigners ok, locals no no.

If you mean should the grandparents having sole responsibility, there are serious consequences to that method (as already has been said by the above posters). Chinese society is dealing with these consequences: children estranged from their parents, lenient grandparents spoiling the children, and the scarred psyche from not receiving parents love... A touching movie about...

459 . Favourite Chinese shop?Sep 02,2014
I like the little shop at the corner of my block.
It's tiny, but they sell beer at 4 RMB a bottle and put a table out on the street for me. In the morning I go in to buy my ciggies and orange juice and hand the guy all my small change and he sorts it out.
He even lets me use his tiny toilet at the back.
It's a great place to sit...

As much as I get pissed about things in China, I'd think it's a bad thing if my wife was like that. What then when we live in my home country, should I be turned into a selfhating tard ?
