"Tiny Trains"

Yeah I was in Vancouver a while ago, some middle of nowhere suburban hellhole, and the shop I was in didn't have a bathroom so I decided to check out the huge McDonalds down the street. It was like 3pm but the place was PACKED with chinese teens and seniors. All anyone had were fries or a drink. The teens were all in one zone playing on their phones in total silence, sometimes taking a sip of their drink or eating a single fry. The seniors side, which was like 75% of the building, was extremely loud as everyone was chatting and mingling around and generally having a good social time. Same deal though, everyone had like a small fries. I've never even seen a McDonalds like that, the seniors area alone had at least 40-50 tables. Was huge. Everyone also stared at me the whole time.

Young girl 02:
20 or 21-year-old college girl.......
....
Anyway, I was trying to get a date with Cocoa, but the original girl cockblocked me because she wants to come to my house to "learn English." She says guys her age are too immature and irresponsible and guys my age are much better, so she wants to try an Uncle instead of a Boy. She said if she decides she wants to be my lover, she will ask me to be her uncle. I can't stand these cultural terms at all.

To be continued.
I'm about to sleep. The original girl, not Cocoa, pestered me all day about if I like CoCo and if I want her. She was getting upset about it so I told her to shut up and that I prefer her because I don't even know a drat thing about Koko's gorilla rear end. She accepted and told me she likes me and that's why she was really worried if I wanted her friend.
She asked me how many girlfriends I've had. I told her number of ones that mattered. She asked how many women I've slept with and I refused to answer and she got upset, so I told her the actual number to see her response and she got even more upset. LMAO.
I calmed her down and she said she wants to come to my room tonight. We're having another typhoon pouring rain all over us and I told her no. She sent photos of all the right places and I was very impressed. I replied with my own. It was good, and she went to sleep. An hour later I get this:



***

LOL. "Traditional" Chinese girls have worse time holding their emotions than they do booze. It hasn't been a week yet, we haven't even met, and she's already planning on being with me forever.
Usually I would just act a fool and get her to rage and give up, but twenty-year-old college girl with an "uncle" fetish is something I can't ignore. She wants me to be her first uncle and foreigner and she's willing to shave her bush for it.
I can still act a fool a couple weeks later and get her to quit on me and blame my age or something. I just need to hatch up a good plan.

***She speaks English just fine, but like most English-speaking Chinese girls I know they prefer to write in Chinese when chatting because they think writing English takes too long.

Chang's only real mistake was predicting a sudden collapse and saying it would happen "by year x" which is the exact same mistake as the "Chinese century China to overtake America by 2020" folks made, just on the opposite side of the spectrum

He's been pretty consistently correct in identifying the weakness of Chinese fundamentals but that's led to stagnation rather than an outright collapse

Really, any other country would have had a huge financial collapse by now, but nobody would have guessed how much money the CCP had under their mattress to throw in this massive "sunk cost fallacy". There was a graph posted earlier in the thread showing how the CCP has been step-by-step, RMB-by-RMB picking up the slack in investment from the private sector, which anyone with some grasp of economics knows is not feasible. The CCP has had a bit of self-awareness, in that they have been trying to buy up as many foreign companies as possible which they see as being future powerhouses. There was a German automation company a month or two ago that the CCP set up for failure so they could buy it out cheap, and other instances like Volvo, IBM, and a host of oil/mining companies as well. The problem is that buying out an innovative company only works for a few years, before they turn it into an "innovative company with Chinese characteristics" and they are once again stuck with assets that are falling behind the technology curve.

The crash is happening, it's just a matter of how bad they want it to end up being. Had they let the market do its own thing, then they might have had their very own "USA 2009" on their hands and might even be past the worst of it by now and on the way to recovery, but the way the CCP is playing things they're acting like they will be able to "outspend it" forever. What I'm thinking is going to happen is that they are going to have their version of the "Great Recession" in a few years, but the government will have spent so much of their savings (and allowed so much of it to go to Vancouver) that they won't have the resources to try and bail out their economy like the US did and they will have a "forever recession" like Japan has been in for the past 30 years, but without the extensive modern infrastructure, impressive social security system, and absolutely no goodwill left to rely on.

Should things get that bad, the country could see itself going back towards Cultural Revolution-esq crackdowns on personal freedoms, or a full-blown peasant uprising. Given the other social and environmental factors piling up, China is setting itself up for a massive fall that is going to shake the entire world economy to its core.

The best is when you go to Richmond Centre mall before it opens. It is full to the gills with Chinese seniors doing Tai Chi and line dancing. If you don't realize what's happening beforehand it's surreal.

If I knew an American that used tinder to gently caress chicks and then intentionally acts like an rear end in a top hat so they ditch him I would call him a creepy exploitative loser too. How socially inept do you have to be to not see that?

I doubt that's the only reason. You have a lot more control when you're writing in your native language. Especially with the kinds of conversations you get up to I could understand them wanting that.

There are to sides to every coin, and often two roads to every destination. Some choose the Haier path and other choose the 3 principles of FBR. These choices we make stand over us like sentinel trees on the main streets. And once the destination is reached, one has achieved 6.7% GDP growth this financial year and revived the A-shares. This is known as Enlightenment.

On one hand, Haier is giving us interesting stories about his life and experiences in China. On the other hand, I get the feeling more and more that he and my uncle the serial cheater in his 60s would have lots of things in common.
