Makes sense though, seeing as the people who could best transition between hurrying and pushing people aside and aimless shambling are the ones who in Maos China ate the most then conserved energy afterwards. Evolutionary pressure + :biotruths:

These are the Chinese people that used to tempt me into laying them on the ground and dropping haymakers into their face until they look like fire extinguisher guy from "Irreversible". I would never get involved (for obvious reasons*), but seeing some guy/woman slap someone else's toddler is pretty rage-inducing. While living in China I saw people losing their poo poo and getting into slap fights over the most banal poo poo imaginable.

-Who got to the shopping cart escalator in Walmart first?
-The bus is full and they won't sell me a ticket.
-Two taxis sharing the same 20m of curb? Impossible!
-Someone caught their husband's 4th mistress! (don't get mad at the mistress)
-HOLY poo poo! They are giving out samples, and there is obviously enough for everyone. (elbows up, lets start a mosh pit)
-Two grannies collided on an empty (3m wide) sidewalk.
-Lady attempts to park her Porsche SUV. After 15 minutes of her holding up everyone else, she attacks the first person who offers to help.
-Guy's chopsticks break unevenly three times in a row. "Better haul off and slap the waitress to prove to my girlfriend I am cool and good".
-More than three people attempt to get the same object from a shelf in a grocery store, despite that product occupying 4m of shelf space and there literally being over a thousand of them on said shelf.

*no matter how mad the two parties are at each other, as soon as a visible foreigner becomes involved, all Chinese people present become of one mind and they try and put the squeeze on him/her for as much money as they think they can get.

The entire staff of the Malatang restaurant got in his face and they screamed back and forth for the better part of 10 minutes, then he and his girlfriend stormed out without touching their food. The chef/owner (I think he owned the place) got pissed enough that he upended their bowls as they walked out, then told one of the waitresses to clean up the two separate four square meters of oil and veg covered floor. I soon learned that rear end in a top hat customers in China love to be in the middle of a room so that everyone can see them when they finally blow up, so a good pro-tip for China goons is to always sit in a corner booth/table to do your best to avoid them and their insanity.

20 cardboard boxes full of dried meats and tree bark that you didn't declare and were never going to be allowed to bring into the county anyways, so now you have to scream at the customs agent for giving you a $400 fine, which you try to get your wife to pay with the $200,000 in undeclared cash she's smuggling into the country for you, which results in a bigger fine and seizure of the money. Yes, I watch Border Security: Canada's Front Line filmed at YVR, why do you ask?

1. Food bank has a "come and get a bag of food to feed your needy family" event.
2. Old Chinese people who are bored collect the food, despite not needing it.
3. They take what they want to sell, and throw the rest in the garbage or leave on the street.
4. There is less food for actual needy people because the first 300 people in line are old Chinese people.

:stare: Maybe people in Sichuan just don't fight as much...

I did see a mom and daughter have a slapfight in front of a craft brewery once. It went on for over an hour, during which they started at one end of the street and basically slapped each other to the opposite side. It was kind of funny but also pretty sad.

I don't think I've seen any actual fights here other than the one we were in. Recently I was at a restaurant and some old woman screaming into her phone like they do walked in and just sat at some random couples table closest the door, there was like 20 other empty tables. They told her to gently caress off and she wasn't there to buy anything so the restaurant people told her to leave too and she started screaming at them so one of them grabbed her phone and threw it as far as he could down the road. She ran off after it still screaming. apparently someone got shot at a restaurant downstairs from my old house but the police came and covered it up pretty quickly

Shanghai is mostly just screaming and intense finger-waggling-under-nose until a companion half-heartedly tugs them away by their sleeve. At this point there are two possible results:
A: Now a safe distance away, both people walk opposite directions acting really huffy and doing that angry chuckle to themselves for anyone who will listen to their case
B: The person that stayed behind will yell something at the person who left, causing him to hustle back and start the screaming and finger waggling again until the companion manages to drag them apart


Sometimes you end up with 3-4 rounds of Option B that will last 30-40 minutes. Onlookers never lose interest, in the same way that zombies in Walking Dead never stop staring at fireworks

It's roughly 50% mainlanders screaming, 50% Americans forgetting that they can't bring handguns into Canada. :downsgun:

Seriously though, it's filmed at a bunch of border entry points, so probably 25% Chinese or Indians not declaring the 5 suitcases full of weird meats, fruits, or tree bark they're trying to bring into Canada, 25% Chinese not declaring the ludicrous amounts of cash they're trying to bring into Canada, 20% Americans trying to get in with handguns, drugs, or criminal records, 10% someone in China trying to smuggle pseudoephedrine into Canada through the mail, 10% young Australians overstaying their tourist visas, 10% random poo poo.

Unfortunately, I was exaggerating for comedic effect. I've seen yelling for both undeclared food and undeclared money, but never both at the same time. Sorry. :canada:
