while i was poking around in the forum, i noticed alot of ppl talking about china with a wierd, dark, hatred-filled aura~
these r some things i hate about china:
-blocked youtube (because it has video's of the troops beating up ppl in tibet)
-blocked facebook (because there's ppl badmouthing the government and all)
-blocked onemanga (for whatever random reason i don't know)
-Public toilets that NEVER have toilet paper (if anyone ever saw one with toilet paper, please tell me)
-u can't really go anywhere with a china passport, but with an U.S passport, u can go to tons of european countries~
so...anyone else feel the same as me?
More on the proxy.
-No google
-No appreciation for Gackt, whatsoever
-No appreciation for jpop, whatsoever.
-Shitty pollution
-Shitty weather
-Shitty jet lag
-WHERE IS MY ENGLISH?!
-Bathrooms, Ah, these bathrooms...
-Dirty dirty dirty.
-There was this SEXY SEXY guy on the bus. Good lord. I think I'm being the middle-aged sketch.
*skip
google still works though~
and, sigh... i don't even want to talk about the bathrooms any more
SEXY GUY? where? where? *evil look in the eye* if i find him i will kidnap him and tie him up on my bed and $(*#&$*@#($*&%)@!)($
icey loves sexy guys :love:. not so much cute. in china nowadays, the people are just copying those kpop people that i love even more. they're sexy. they're talented. and they're famous. *sigh*. i wish china could come up with some of those people....
A few things I despise are:
-HOW DISGUSTING SOME PLACES CAN BE :vomit:
-The pushy people
-The annoying mutant mosquitos
Luckily, I haven't had to encounter too many disgusting places. But just noticing restaurants or hotels that look really bad make me want to throw up.
AH! The shitty people on the roadsides who stalk you down and force you to buy their socks or something?
HATEEEEE. lol!
A blog of my obsession with the sexy guy:
00:00- Lily gets on bus.
00:00- Ah, it's nice and empty. But there aren't any good seats.
00:00- Damn that shitty girl on my left! She's taking up TWO seats! What the fuck?! I'll sit here I guess.
00:00- Maybe this'll annoy her. DAMN THESE CHINESE GIRLS. I guess I'll sit next to her and enjoy the view.
00:01- Ah! There's a fly!
00:01- Ah! There's a mortorcylce. Awwww, isn't that cute? Father and son sitting on the same scooter?
00:02- HOLY SHIT THAT GIRL BESIDE ME IS A GUY.
00:02- Dammit, I want to get a better look at him... Might be a delish fag. ^___^
@lily: exactly!(i mean those ppl that stalk u down n force u to buy stuff) and the dirtiness...well, i guess as long as china exists it will never cease to be dirty...(since it has like 5 times the U.S population and all)
:shy: Dust everywhere... IT ISN'T HUMANLY POSSIBLE, IS IT?!
*seriously freaked out. I love Chinese Pizza Huts... Foreign Haven!
*high fives lily* yeah, and somehow KFC is really popular in china, although in the U.S....
KFC is their Mcdonalds... Though I must say the Pizza Huts are CROWDED.
We had to wait for 10 minutes before getting seated and then there are two Pizza huts that we could walk to within 5 minutes XD *skip PIZZAAAAA... Worth getting fat for!
in shanghai the lines are ridiculously LONG. i NEVER ate a pizza hut in china before
It's better than America's. The architecture was like ZEOMG! Tableclothe! I'm at a star rated resturant! T___T. They have AWESOME GREEN TEA CAKE. But if I go there, I always get a slice of tiramisu. It's heeeaaaaven. :woohehe:
the green tea cake*drools*
anything green tea flavored seems to taste really good
for example green tea ice cream (does anyone know where u can buy those?), green tea milktea, green tea cookies....
LOL!
Come to pizza hut...
it was green tea ICE CREAM cake XDDD
Quote from: Melody on July 19, 2010, 03:56
for example green tea ice cream (does anyone know where u can buy those?), green tea milktea, green tea cookies....
and green tea pocky :love:
Also, am I the only one who cries a little bit whenever I see a person who doesn't seem to have the best conditions on the streets...In America I haven't had to see too many people like that where I live because my community is pretty wealthy so I have kind of been in a "bubble".
:wahaha: green tea ANYTHING is love! <3
Oh goodie lord.
Just tell yourself "They deserve it. If I end up like that, it's my fault. Obviously."
And then go buy yourself a GREEN TEA FRAPPICINOSkljdfasj!!! STARBUCKS FTW!
i hate starbucks. especially in china. IT"S TOO EXPENSIVE (there icey goes asian again)!
But at least it IS shockingly ubiquitous.
I haven't seen a starbucks yet.
& I really want to get one of those matcha frappucinos, I had a sip of one when I was meeting up with my friends at starbucks
and then I really wanted to buy one but I kept forgetting to ):
They weren't that good.
Not enough matcha, tasted like melon to me!
But where else can we get all that cheap merchandise D;! On a side note, you can just use a proxy servers to bypass internet restrictions~ ^^;
everything in china is so cheap
I did find a lovely proxy...
But since it's free it's not THAT good. :donwan:
I don't think chinese merchandise is THAT cheap.
Well at least clothing isn't...though I think it is mainly because my aunt keeps taking me to designer stores because she says the regular stores have bad clothing D:
It makes me feel really bad when I spend like $500 on a pair of pants or $150 on a plain white t-shirt but when I try not to, my aunt gets kind of mad..which makes it hard for me to say no even if I REALLY don't want the article of clothing
though food and drinks seem to be much cheaper.
yeah.......i don't buy a lot of clothes in china anyways. FOOD is CHINA!!
Buying quality clothes in China is a headache.
I see some really cute dresses and shirts, but where the hell do they buy them?!
Anyway, food is much easier to find, and much cheaper.
A BOX OF MASHMELLOW CHOCOLATE PIES FOR $1.5!!! XD
so..............it's about........10.5 RMB. not bad. i guess...............O.O. did ya get that from a real big supermarket or something?
Yup, and it's QUITE a big box.
They're individually packaged, and you can hold them in your hand without any mess.
They're these cream cakes for 7 RMB. I wanted those, but... T___T. Next time!
Lmao you can't help it... China is communist! XD
But they have other website to replace google such as Baidu.
I can understand that China's government might be hateble to some of you but they still have good foods, cheap price, and a lot of places to visit!
Oh and yeah the public washroom is most of the places are... dirty. That's why I always go to the washroom in my house before leaving to somewhere. LOL
I HATE THE BATHROOMS SO MUCH :vomit:
you always know a bathroom when you come near one. the smell...
actually, it also happens in the US. i was in this restaurant in Denver 20 minutes ago and the bathrooms SUCKED!!!!
It begins:
1) Chinese teachers-pushy, stupid, arrogant, un-creative
2) Chinese education system- Linked strongly with the above
3) Chinese KFC/Pizza Hut/McDonalds- THAT IS NOT MY KFC/Pizza Hut/McDonalds!!! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY RESTARAUNT!!!!????
4) Chinese need to claim every stretch of water within 2000 km in any direction from the coast.
5) China's insistence that Tulufan grapes are the best. I really don't agree.
6) China's lame ass need to try and impress other countries with a weak ass parade of outdated military technology. (heheheh)
7) Tones
8) Having simplified and traditional characters.
9) Not being able to decide wether your economy is capitalist or socialist.
10) Ridiculous overpopulation ( i mean, come on people, your more populous than rats.)
11) Mao. And I dont mean a cat.Every time a chinese person talks to me about him, I can't tell wether they approved of him or not.
I have a lot of other gripes, but if you think this list is long, you should see my list of likes...
Chinese people are unmannerminded.
So what if I'm not paying you like the hotel concierge? At least say fucking sorry when you crash into me, shitheads!
:< City people *shakes head sadly
As for the Pizza Hut thing... I ABSOLUTELY disagree.
China's pizza is like State of Art. America's pizza is like greasy dough ~_~
EXACTLY!!!!!! I LIKE MY GREASY DOUGH!!! :noway:
Yuck. :dignose:
ew.

^^^ This. I think it's stupid. :/ Personally, I think traditional looks so much prettier. :3
Another reason I dislike China is that they always think that Taiwan is part of China. No, it's not. Taiwan is a separate country. >:(
Okay, I'm done ranting. Carry on.
well, the characters are really...pretty...but they are so COMPLICATED!!

ohohoho! :hmmm:
:crywithno: same here!
Really? :o Yay, so much in common!! let me give a hug~ :love:
I feel like the all those years of chinese school went down the drain as soon as I "graduated" from there... T__T
xD *huggles*
ANIMUS!!! -HUGGLES AND GLOMPS ONTO ANIANIMUSMUS~- *skip
Same here, with the chinese school ~_~
Anyway, I went to Taiwan this summer (Same as you XDDD) And my relatives compared Taiwan to Hawaii >O
There's so much irony in that ~_~
*GLOMPS onto both*
Yay! We all agree that chinese school was a waste of time! :=X:
You went to Taiwan too?!?! OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGGGGG! *tackles* Which part of Taiwan did you stay at? For how long? Well, Taiwan and Hawaii are both islands, so I guess that's why. :o It's super hot there but I love it to death. :love:
GROUP HUG! *bear hugs both* :D
TAIWAN??? *GLOMPS* group huggles too! *skip
Have you been there too? :o_o:
It seems I show too much obsession for the country xD *stares at all those pics taken from trip*
yes....but it was only the airport! but i saw the BEAUTY when the plane flew over the cities and lights........... *skip

i dont like their pushy-ness. like wherever you go, there will be this competition for everything. going up the bus, boarding the train, purchasing something... they squeeze you from all directions.
but then again, it's sort of like their habit? if you dont compete and fight for what you want, you'll never get anything.

yeah...charmy can be very evil :omg: don't play-play...
O_O i don't have any china students.... last time i had in my chinese class.... it made me deprived of confidence... because i thought mine was... considered above average.....then there were china people....... it made me :crywithno:
Well, the arguements go that Chinese students spend their entire lives memorizing texts and living in the bounds of their regime.
The arguement says that Chinese students grow up with limited imagintion (What?) while we live in cultural diversity, land of opportunity, etc.
Moderators that think up of interesting things to... erm, do! :D
ok. i absolutely HATE. THEIR UNIFORMS! :noway:
I found their uniforms fine.....
i went to do a presentation on sg for the china students once..... in shenzhen/hk school.

We're not truly at home in China, we simply rank slightly above the tourists.
The ones who are native to the motherland would probably know where to find such things
(like obscure manga XD) whereas we do... not.
yeah..... if you got a china accent and you are in china....even if you don't know, the locals will still tell you.
I don't have a Chinese accent nor am I in china :donwan: :swt:
:swt: then it doesnt matter. we're all chinese! we can rule the world with our almighty population. :woohehe:
What happened to the NO WORLD DOMINATION rule?'

:swt: oh snap.... :goodmood:
xD. i do believe that Korea will someday dominate all the Media. like those kpop starts and kdramas! i mean...it affected my household. we go to a korean mart to buy like.....meat, honey, rice, veggies, and more stuff :=X: anyone heard of an Hmart? it's HUGE! and they give you free food samples! :love: i love pork strips
singapore has those.. korean food stands...and taiwanese food stands... zomg i resisted against the temptation to buy it because i need to watch my weight... WHO CALLED THEM TO BRING IN ALL THESE :omg: DELICIOUS STUFF?! :touched:
We have the korean supermart too.... and the japanese ... >< Daiso..... erm. erm. erm. and some random shops that sell only JAPPY, KOREAN Items.
Even if korea does dominate all the media ... -> the taiwanese will fight back! right now we're in a taiwan vs korea war you know something like that.....and followed by that is hongkong drama serials which are SOOOOOOO good. :hmmm:
the topic just changed into something completley different

I CAN NEVER FIND GOOD MANGA!!!
:donwan:
there is rarely good chinese manga. oh.. btw. i got braces. haha. that was kinda random
i extremely disagree with you on that icy.
rarely good chinese manga? there's a pilehole of chinese manga which are either 1) oneshots that could potentially be the next shoujo manga 2) sequels that we havent look through -> like TONG LI & Heart Brands of comic books (THEY ARE THE BEST)
plus.
Most of our projects are chinese books isn't it?
I take you down with it ^^ (sorry, i just got carried away... debated a fierce argument hours ago... still in my brain circulating)

oh my. this topic has gone off once again!
i hope china upgrade their toilets for ONCE. the rich places (shanghai, beijing, chong qing, etc) sometimes don't even have good toilets.
They should really separate the male and female toilets in school......in china.
......O_O. wait. THEY HAVE THE SAME TOILETS!?!?!!?!? :omg: i 've never seen or heard of that before!
its too long....its either separated or together.
anything the thing that keeps me annoyed is that...
their toilets are all squats!
i HATE that. i feel bad for the old people. xD
its in schools dear
i still find those toilets everywhere.
the elderly should be cared for......YOU SUCK CHINA!
-__- there's handicapped toilets in public areas. I guess.
ah....
i hate when trying to cross the streets. i got hit by a motorcycle (on the arm. it was bruised kinda badly.) while crossing the street and it scared the hell out of me. *dead
The beggars are scary to me.
i feel kinda bad for them. but i don't have money... :touched:
:touched: Same.
I feel lonely without lynn and emily!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :donwan:
i thought lynn is training for editor. i hope it's going well!
ok. anything else bad about china?
It's communist.
but they're good to senior citizens that way..... :swt:
They force the citizens to their will :omg:
O_O. REALLY? my grandparents love china now.
why do they love china now?
senior citizens get a LOT of benefits.
nothing to do with old people
annoyed at china because they translate western names funny. and all other countries names. (i recently found out ?? <-rainbow rice is L'arc~en~ciel or something like that)

China has alot of beauty and handsome ppl...... but the problem is.... they have lack of exposure, BECAUSE THERE ARE TOO MANY. :=D:

do u know Danson Tang? i think he's pretty but he's not talented.
Yes. Yeah....his born for showbiz man. He got the looks, but not the talent.
I think his fine for acting.... but singing? very few of his hits make it.
xD yeah. i don't really like anyone.....(i used to) Jay chou was MAH ROLE MODEL. he. has. TALENT.
he does. I miss his songs :(
but he's old now....IS HE MARRIED!?!?
no.

yep. alot of gossipy stuff comes in between.
OMFG!! TVXQ MADE IT TO THE USA! JYJ FTW!!
I despised China at certain times, when I was vacationing there. But now when I am in America, I really want to go back. My aunt would take me shopping whenever I wanted and would buy me anything (...I wish I had taken up her offer on getting me a burberry coat & scarf because it would have really come in handy now :'( ) and I like their clothing better. I really like the shops with the very feminine/cute clothing (there was one shop in particular, but I can't remember the name and I am unable to find the clothing I got from there, I am missing like 10 pieces of clothing that I KNOW I brought back because I wore them like once, but I have never seen them since), also they tend to stock my size more, while getting a cute piece of clothing in my size on sale is practically impossible where everything left is too big for me.
Also, I loved their snacks and drinks.
Mainly though, I loved the shopping :love:
:touched: i never got to go shopping! :touched:

Some of the brands were way more expensive in China, but since my aunt was offering to buy w/e I wanted, I took the offer..
i wanted to get a Wii from china but um...eventually that didn't happen :swt:
I was going to get the iPhone, but then I didn't want to pay for the $30/$60 (can't remember which) monthly plan and then the iTouch didn't have the camera so I didn't get anything.
Did you get the Wii eventually though?
:'( no.
all i did was eat. eat. tour. tour. climb mountains. the great wall. eat.

I wish I could have tried some more, my mother was afraid I would get sick..which I did. But, I wish I could have tried some more foods. Though, I had some really good snails :)
...SNAILS!?!?
i never got to eat snails.... :swt:
Oh, they were really good.
I am not a big fan of fish so there wasn't much seafood I could eat. Mainly I ate lobster, crab, snails, shrimp, and a few other things I can't remember.

I'M HERE TO RANT ABOUT CHINA AGAIN!! D:{
THEY BANNED SUJU'S BONAMANA IN CHINAAAA!!! TT.TT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoOoOoOOOOOOOO WHYYYYYY!?!??
So many reasons to hate China... I am insure of what to think.
unsure.
We should just focus on the positive and then not go to China again so we don't have to complain pointlessly about how another country works. They have their own reasons, and if any country in the world is going through something called "progress," it'll be China. It's not like there's not a dark side to it though. Just be glad you're not living in China then! :)
IF china could LEARN something from kpop, that would be pretty cool. china has a ton of talented people, but...they don't know how to produce good music. TT.TT
Oh I know what you mean! I think most of the singers are singers because they have good looks.. glad I do not live there xd
you know what i realized?
china isn't cheap anymore! even the unknown brands are becoming REALLY expensive D:
SIGH
Actually i like china. I would love to visit it again. BECAUSE ITS INEXPENSIVE, COMPARED TO SINGAPORE :( GAAAAAAAAAH.
D: the things are starting to get expensive xD. well, the food is cheap but...the clothing (jeans, branded clothing, anything americanized)
China and India are developing markets O_O
CHINA COPIED A STAR KING (from korean)...the EXACT same name, except translated into chinese...o_O
i still remember the toilets from a couple year ago...hopefully this year they upgraded them -_- (like that's ever gonna happen)
O_O ew china toilets ew. They are stilll using SQUATS!
am I allowed to not like China but love love love LOVE!!! Hong Kong? cuz i do :woohehe:
:woohehe: i don't consider hong kong to be part of china >.<
Hate china for having a ton of different power plug outlets.
Seriously, how are you suppose to plug stuff in?
>:(
D: heh? last time i went to china, there...weren't any power outlets :=D:
some villages also eat bugs. I wonder if this is considered a meat or a veggie.
Seriously, I dont think meat is suppose to crunch, but veggies arent suppose to have brains even if they are the size of dust. D:
the plug outlets are the same as the ones in UK
Hello~
I don't exactly know what you guys are talking about so I'll barge in with a different topic. :hmmm:
I hate China for executing Filipino workers in China. >:(
um...WHAT?!? D: :omg: THEY KILLED PEOPLE!?!?
Yeah, just recently. The Philippine's government did their best to stop China from doing it but they just continued with killing the three poor workers. :'(
D:
THAT'S HORRIBLE!! :crywithno:
Lol, China's communist, what do you expect? XD I'm sure the US has done plenty of worse things, just with a better justification. I hold judgment on other countries, but really, the darling USA needs to hold off on the violence just because it can afford to do it.
and just a couple of days ago, China (so nicknamed "gentle giant") came out with a statement that said the US should fuck off and stop invading other countries by pretending we're doing this great human rights thing. I mean, we're totally not in Libya AT ALL for the oil there. 0%.
>.<
i was just wondering if...buying fake "apple" products from china and using them in the US is legal or not... :swt:
and in china, if you buy a REAL louis vutton bag or rolex watch and wear it around, people are going to think it's a fake version...=_=
Yeah its true but I don't think its classed as illegal.... >< but just don't go around flashing it about saying 'its a fake from China!' ^^
I hate it. Period, they executed most of my family tree on trumped up charges and then 20 years later sends a letter saying sorry. Well if there was sorry in this world then there'd be no need for wars right?
can i hate them for not always giving me muh cheap ebay stuff ? :hmmm:
/me goes ordering some stuff again form ebay
Sorry for necroposting...
I want to add in that there's three parts of China. The Northern, the Central, and the Hong Kong//Southern.
Central is the communist side. Hong Kong is consider its own country because they do nothing that's involved with China itself, so they're on their own. They don't rely on their government at all. As for nothern, they're just there following rules, not all but some. The central is the one that's been making plans for attack and alliance or destruction. Like the things that's been happening now with China x Japan && China&North Korea x South Korea&Japan&the US. If you did not know about this, then omg. It's still in progress nothing bad happening yet, but it's going slow though.
As for your ebay thing, Harr. Ebay is a site where things get ripped off a lot more than amazon.
As for Blob, i have no idea what the situation was, but that happen as well in America. Heard of the Crucible? Yeah you s hould read it. It talks about the same way China did their things.
China isn't all that bad, especially if you're in the Southern or Hong Kong, they're not affiliated with China. That place is more wonderful than any other cities and towns in China.
None of these are lies ,because I, sally, is a Chinese-American. But I learn my stuff from my parents, they're immigrants.
Why I may or may not be unreasonably livid with China = the damn writing characters. 8000 characters is just plain unnecessary because I'm lazy. orz
each province is self administrating, but like tibet, they listen to whatever the central Communist government says which sux for Hong Kong because we're supposed to have a democratic government, which yes, a tiny bit of it is democratic, however the people who vote for who becomes the governor of Hong Kong, none of them are voted in by the public, so how is it democracy when your equivalent of a prime minister is voted in by people who are not connected to the public?!!
That governor is just a puppet of the central communist faction. The last one had to read off a script and always made a fool out of himself when he was challenged.
I watch news sometimes, but even though I don't understand a single word it says except basic stuff.
Anyways, it says that more than half of Hong Kong or other towns do not vote for their governor or leadership. It's automatically voted by the central if they like it or not. And most of the time the governor does not know what he's doing, like the time he ordered to destroy someone's house down without letting them know. And it cause so many problems afterward.
@Vaux: Well half of those 8000 characters are similar to Japanese Characters. c: so it shouldn't be that hard.
I don't study Japanese, lol. Just Mandarin. xD So whether they're the same or not, it really makes no difference to me. In the end, they're all merely a bunch of lines I'm forced to memorise in perfect order. orz
You see, you get to learn your language. I don't. I can't even read or write in chinese. even though I'm chinese...Japanese characters in english is much easier than the chinese looking characters way. Ok the next thing you'll know this conversation starts to drift toward the japan.
Anyways, chinese > cantonese & Mandarin. more than half of china is mostly Mandarin. Cantonese needs to be revive or whatever that word is.
I don't think reading and writing in Chinese is extremely important if you live overseas. Half of my Chinese friends don't even know how to read/write fluently, lol. And hahaha yes, I'm aware of that. That's why I'm doing Mandarin to begin with, since it's more common.
Also, I'm not Chinese. xD I'm just studying Mandarin because I wanted to learn a new language, lol. :goodjob:
I never said you were. I'm just stating a fact. Well, its sad if I don't know my own language you know. I'm currently studying Japanese, Korean & i'm on the 3rd level of spanish. Funny thing is i understand it, but I can't even speak or write it. O_O
I want to go eat in Chinese McDonald
0_0 oh god, you can only say that because you haven't seen the conditions of mcdonalds stores behind the counter in western countries, if you've seen what it's like there, then you can be sure it's 100 times worse in china. They'll use oil filtered from the sewers, their hamburgers would have flies and dirt in them, their chicken nuggets might explode.
Dude, I'm texan. We have everything here. c: And I've been to china before, I just want to see how much it has change since the last time I went there. The last time I saw mcdonalds at china; it was weird and the entrance/exit was at the wrong direction.
in china, a plastic chair exploded and wounded a small schoolgirl who was unfortunate enough to sit on it
a toilet basin exploded severely injuring a woman
a sewer lid exploded almost killing a passerby
a 1 yuan coin exploded in a childs hands
a condom exploded in a vending machine causing shrapnel smashing a car's windscreen
a bunch of watermelons exploded, fortunately it happened while the watermelons were still on the farms
a shark tank exploded in a department store
a 1.9L soy sauce bottle exploded in a dining room
a dead goldfish was found in a sealed pepsi bottle (ok fine this one didn't explode)
reinforced glass panels exploded (people were supposed to walk on them too) mysteriously
a truck exploded in guizhou
a computer monitor exploded, fortunately the lady went off to make a cup of coffee, came back to find shrapnel where she used to sit
a refrigerator exploded but the brand was LG, even so it was probably made in china or fake anyways for this to have happened
a cigarette exploded when a man tried to light it blowing off 2 fingers and his thumb.
You sure you can find this in texas? the only thing there that doesn't seem to explode are their bombs and missiles.
^ What on earth, lol. Is that even legit?
legit exploding stuff in china. There's a special site which focuses on these exploding things. However the stuff there is NSFW so you kids have to take my word for it. Or search for the site yourself but I take no responsibility no matter what you see.
Lol, righto. But yeahhh, no. You aren't THAT much older than me.
hm I guess you're ok, but there are others like paupau who may unfortunately stumble upon this message.
True but... *doubts Pau would ever enter a hate thread, lol* xD
So true.
for the post count she might.
and she's all over the "People you hate most!!!" thread lol, I'm hazarding a guess that that one's a hate thread
My position of highest poster might be compromised if I give Jess and Paupau room to catch up :noway:
why don't you just make a thread and start a conversation about it? :P
OT: Well blob, you probably didn't know but there's a lot of things that exploded in our town.
Four firefighters died in a trapped building while it was burning.
About 10 criminals are still not found, just last saw at certain places.
North Korea threaten us few months ago with their missiles.
Other than that, China is a missed up country, the end. It's missed up like most other countries too, each has their own stories.
@Blob
Oh. LOL. I don't remember her going there. xD
Well... At least this thread is safe for now.
We should make a thread on NSA's recent screw up >:D
Uhhh... Go for it? Hahaha.
wonder how americans feel about it though, cuz the news says 38% think he's a traitor or something, 50% he's a patriot, how can you think he's a traitor?!!
Because they're a bunch of weirdos?
I have no idea who you guys are talking about.
Its funny how the topic changes to american now.
Like the same that you guys do it on every topics.
it's the way they think I guess xD
people change, they mature through a forum post and start flaming other things totally unrelated.
