Pretty much every response you get in China (regarding that kind of stuff) is a "reflex" rather than an actual answer that has undergone any manner of thought. It's sort of muscle memory by the time someone is out of school. They have been made to listen to, write down, and repeat the same answers over and over again until they no longer think of the question or the answer, but just blurt out the same lines over and over whenever a key word/phrase is brought up. By now pretty much everyone who has followed the last 2-3 threads could finish these statements like a mainlander. "Taiwan is . . . " "Tibet has . . . " "Japan should . . . " "Chinese medicine isn't . . . " "America wants . . ." "China will . . . "

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-05-13/bank-china-atms-go-dark-ransomware-attack-slams-china Its pretty funny how that ransomware the rest of the world knew was coming a week ago totally ruined tons of computers in China. Im sure microsoft is loving it even more considering its mostly cracked copies of windows that were affected and the US with all its genuine windows installs is barely getting hit comparatively The best part is that they are reformatting and installing fresh windows that are still not genuine and just getting reinfected immediately At least all that bitcoin being mined in China finally has a use.

big time bisexual posted:police in guangdong try to put down an out of control water buffalo When Face Goes Wrong ^^^ That video has so many loving chinese characteristics. He even does that little shake his arms thing to bank up some mad face for when he owns the cow. It seemed to me that part of Face Culture is pretending to be an expert at everything and that nothing takes any effort so that if it works you Look Slick AF and gain so much face. You can see the exact moment where he loses face and starts to run for his life.

I've been reading Qiu Xiaolong's Chief Inspector Chen novels and in most of them someone says a variation of "you should piss on the ground and look at your reflection in the puddle". It's a pretty cool saying.
