I went to a buffet alone tonight and then walked 14km back to my house. Binge and cruise. The buffet is big (selection and building size), and has a floor plan like an L shape. I usually sit as far away from the food as possible, around the corner, since it's empty there until the place fills up, as most people force themselves to sit as close to the food as possible. I'm eating and there's about 20+ tables in that area that are empty. It's just one other guy eating alone, and two girls playing phone while eating. I get up to get some soup, leaving my food and the tray to save my place, and come back to find an older couple had taken the table directly behind me. This is typical, as nobody here can bear to do things without doing it directly next to other people. I come walking up and the guy almost drops his chopsticks. He mouth opened so wide, I thought he would going to scream. I sat down and the dude slid his chair out and swiveled himself just to stare at me. I looked at him, he paid no care, he just sat there staring like I was the free show with dinner. He turns back to his wife, who was also staring, and then they spent the entire meal just poo poo talking foreigners. It wasn't even an exaggeration, almost every sentence out of this guy's mouth began with "LAOWAI" and "MEIGUO" and done in that whiny tone they do when they are upset about something. The wife also joined in, and every time I got up to get something else, they stopped talking and eating and just stared at me, and wouldn't stop staring until I would sit down again. He swiveled a few times to get a closer look, and then would begin his China versus The World rant again. When I finished eating I wanted to sit a little before I started walking, so I took out my Kindle and tried to finish a chapter in my current book. I was a few pages into it when there's a loud CLACK at my table. I look up and someone had just tossed their empty food tray sets onto the table. It was a family of four. I look around. Yep, there's still 20+ empty tables here, but they wanted to sit at my loving table with my food tray and napkins all over the place. The patriarchal Buzzcut in his dashing faded striped polo sits directly across from me. Junior, in diapers, sets next to him, and immediately starts crying. Grandma starts getting loud. The wife is standing there staring at me, probably wondering the same thing I am ("why the gently caress are we sitting here?"). They all went to get food and I immediately left. I opened up People Nearby and some girl wanted to add me, so I added her and her first few messages were like "I am glad to talk to someone who speaks English, because I want to learn English and you can help me and please correct my poor spelling or grammar so I can learn from chatting with you." I was just thinking "I didn't sign up for this poo poo," and ignored all the English-related questions she had. She got upset I wouldn't let her see my Moments/album. She asked what my Chinese name was. I said "Nope," and she asked if that was my Chinese name. NOH-PUH.

I'm being mostly facetious though, based on that one presentation Ian did of a Chinese mystery handgun clone that was pretty likely to blow up in your hand if you tried to fire it.

Collateral Damage posted:I thought the SKS was Russian/Soviet? China produced a metric fuckload of SKSs and offloads their surplus to other markets now. By all reports I've heard, Communist Chinese guns are actually fine and won't blow up on you, it's the random civil war-era ones that are dangerous.

An absolutely ancient Chinese woman was smiling at me with horrific teeth and wearing teal sweats and seven layers of shirts of varying lengths with attached forearm sleeves. Just kept nodding, smiling and muttering Chinese at me, by my house. Pacing back and forth on the sidewalk by the entrance to my place.

That 23-year-old girl that added me last night from People Nearby is quite the product of Chinese education... Her: "What were you doing in X (area where she lives)?" Me: *Send a photo of my dinner* Her: "You were eating?" Me: "No, just looking at food I paid for. I didn't eat it." Her: "You came to X to eat dinner?" Me: "That's what the photo of food means." Her: "Are you hungry?" *This morning* Her: "What will you do today?" Me: "I have no plans. The rain is strong, and I don't want to go out. Maybe I will go eat pizza later for lunch." Her: "Do you like pizza?" Me: "No, I hate pizza, which is why I will go eat pizza." Her: "Really?" Me: "If I did not like pizza, why would I go eat pizza?" Her: "Ok..."

Anyway, here's a dozen high-res photos of a mildly interesting sculpture or a lake on an overcast day!" Haier posted:That 23-year-old girl that added me last night from People Nearby is quite the product of Chinese education... In my experience, Chinese will generally pretend to know what you are saying even if they don't. It's a useful way to keep the conversation going without things getting awkward. Of course, it takes some skill and still decent language skills. Repeating back some words in the form of a question doesn't work if you have no clue what they're saying at all. mrbotus fucked around with this message at 06:36 on Jun 17, 2017 |

Worst traffic injury I suffered in China was november 2012, on my way to work, some rear end in a top hat on an ebike comes hurtling down the hill from the bridge by Jinyuan Shopping Center. We're approaching the entrance to the parking lot, and the bike lane is congested ahead. There are cars coming through in 2 different directions, people walking, and multiple bicycles either stopped or slowed to a crawl. I slowed down to try and navigate this chaos. I came alongside a VW Magotan, and then I was sent hurtling forward, as shithead's ebike slammed into my rear wheel. I took a lot of the impact through my hands, actually, which stung like hell. I staggered onto the sidewalk, then tried to get my footing as I stumbled sideways. I finally stopped when my head slammed into a light pole. The idiot just stood there staring. I cussed at him in English a bit and shooed him away. I thought I was fine, but I wasn't. I had something like a scrape behind my ear, where my head had slammed sideways into the pole. If I hadn't been wearing a helmet, I think I'd be dead. There was no tear in my pants, but it turned out I'd torn my knee open, too. Blood was running down my leg. It just wouldn't stop. I didn't realize how bad it was until much later. I just bled all day at work, and until I got stitches the next day. I think what the moron had been trying to do was to thread a needle between me and that VW, a gap maybe 2 feet across. On the plus side, my rear wheel had been warped before that accident. It was straight after it.
