Gutter oil gone bad (or worse) ? Could be a kitchen/gas explosion
Yes. Why? Why spread the news? What news? Perhaps it's a one-off. LIke, uh, a accident?
diverdude1:
yeah, u are right, I jumped to making this post too quickly. It's just that the way I first heard about it, a scared phone call from my gf seeing if I was ok, and the way it was first reported on chinadaily.com tripped me out a bit...
In case you didn't see it, it seemed like chinadaily tried to tie it in w/ Teacher's Day, and the teaching of English language in China, And they kinda made it sound like it had sth to do w/ yesterdays explosion outside of that school in bum-fk wherever...
Red_Fox:
Sorry you were alarmed. Leave it up to the media (anywhere in world, actually) to sensationalize events... Footnote: China Daily is a rag of a news source by any world or local standards, high and low.
I heard it was a methane pocket near a restaurant that was ignited by a cigarette.
99Silva:
trying to be funny at this time is really dumb....don't you have any feelings towards the people who died.
TedDBayer:
For once, you are right, I apologize. I thought it was an accident cause by an unsafe load on a three wheeler. The things you see in only in China. I thought it was caused by Chinese stupidity, not Chinese insanity. What did the nut case hope to prove?
The Guilin blast was deliberate http://www.scmp.com/news/china/article/1307945/migrant-worker-set-explosion-guilin-school-after-child-rejected?utm_source=The+Sinocism+China+Newsletter&utm_campaign=22975915be-Sinocism09_11_13&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_171f237867-22975915be-29620917

yup. I've been wumao'd, the Down Vote Elf passed my way. Nothing raises their anger as un-opinionated posts.
Scandinavian:
@Ted: I now know that your real life profession must be "super detective", now where is that thread on sarcasm.
TedDBayer:
Not hard to figure out who posted and gave thumbs down, He blankets posts, everybody knows it.
TedDBayer:
If it is a she, is it a she that anyone likes? Better it stays it, sorta like ''Thing''
wtf??! Why would anybody want to do that if it's not their job to do so? I got more important things to do then to start spreading rumours around.
TedDBayer:
Then do us all a favour, go do them and don't come back here.
