Bajaj posted:So Chaoshan Girl has been in India for about an hour already. I have been laughing all day at the thought of her here. I'm going to be real with you for a second. This girl loves you. Like really loves you. You've said all along that she hates India, hates the idea of India, hates what she thinks India will be about. She has traveled thousands of miles to see you despite all this. You are the only reason she's come. You've said before that she's a cool person, that you appreciate that she's not the average Chinese girl, that she has an independent mind of her own. Don't break her heart. I know your feelings on marriage and I'm not saying marry the girl, but don't break her heart.

I would blow Dane Cook posted:coke nail? No, that's the pinky as it (I guess) is an ideal size for snorting coke. Also just from pantomiming for a few seconds, the pinky works much better as a scoop than your thumbnail would.

Chaoshan Girl India Update 01: *My phone rings at 08:20. I see it's Ms. CG* Me: "HALLLOOOOOUUUUUUUUUU" Her: "I LOST THEM" Me: "What?" Her: "I lost them. There are too many people. I don't know where they went." Me: "Yeah, there's a lot of people in India." Her: "I don't know why my phone works. I have no water. I have no money." Me: "Why didn't you exchange your money at the airport?" Her: "I could do that?" Me: "Now you're going to get cheated by the exchange shops on the streets. You're silly." Her: "OH MY GAH. I am so tired. I can't find *Chinese friends*." Me: "Go use your Visa card at the ATM down the road, then you'll get money instantly. But, I don't know how to explain how to get there. It's too bad you don't have access to Google Maps, and only have Baidu." Her: "I don't have Google!! How can I see a map? I have nothing. Ahhhhhhhhhhh." Me: "Go take a shower, have a nap." Her: "I think the water will electrocute me." Me: "No, there is no hot water in your hotel, I can already guess it. Just go take a shower." Her: "I can't, it's scary. You don't know." Me: "I know, believe me." Her: "But I lost them and I am here. I need water." Me: "Then call their phone, since you can call me." Her: "Okokokokok, 88."

Is this something you occasionally see on men in China? At least in Chengdu it's not occasionally. I don't spend a ton of time checking out dude's hands but I'd say the majority have long nails. Taxi driver last night had all ten long ones and filed to points.

I'm imagining a Nora Ephron romantic comedy hijacked by the Farrelly Brothers who write in lots of diarrhea scenes and change the ending to a nihilistic one.

对不起, my name is Phil Clarke-Laoshi I’m an expat Chinaboo (China fan for you gwailo). I draw Lotus flowers on silk, and spend my days perfecting my art and playing superior Chinese games. (Mahjong, Legends of the Three Kingdoms, League of Legends) I train with my Jian every day, this superior double-edged weapon can cut clean through steel because it is folded over a billion times, and is vastly superior to any other weapon on earth (especially katanas). I earned my Chinese sword license two years ago, and I have been getting better every day. I speak Chinese fluently, both Cantonese and Mandarin, and I write fluently as well. I know everything about Chinese history and the Dao, which I follow 100% When I get my Chinese visa, I am moving to Guangzhou to attend a prestigious High School to learn more about their magnificent culture. I hope I can become a Falun Gong trainer or a Kung Fu teacher! I own several Changshan, which I wear around town. I want to get used to wearing them before I move to China, so I can fit in easier. I spit on the ground, smoke Panda cigarettes and speak Cantonese as often as I can, but rarely does anyone manage to respond. Wish me luck in China!

I would blow Dane Cook posted:对不起, my name is Phil Clarke-Laoshi The China-boos are hilarious, because all they have are the 5000 years of Chinese centuries, but nothing modern to really cling to the way the others can. Korea-boos and Weeaboos have pop culture and long list of modern elements to absorb, but Mainland China has zero pop culture worth following, and the China-boos have to rely on falsely propagated ancient myths and literary inventions of what China is/was supposed to be. At some point, if they can't fit their understanding of China to be exactly like a brush painting, they will buy into modern China propaganda, and the media's retarded representation of the illustrious and majestic achievements of modern China as a whole. It's even worse in ABCs, who everyone knows make a sizeable portion of Wumaos online out of an absurd mental duty to support the place their parents escaped. One of my good friends in Hawaii got really, really into Mao and dressing like a Chinese red guard at times. His mom was from Hong Kong. He loving loved the idea of Chinese communism, but I don't think he'd ever researched it himself, or asked his mom how she felt about it. The first time I went to China I brought him a bunch of a garbage with Mao's face on it and he was elated. I just wanted to say that because I have been dicking around in Wechat's "Shake" and "Message in a bottle" feature, and have talked to a few non-Chinese people that are loving weird as hell about China, and bought into every bit of the "good news" the media spreads. I was talking to this girl my age in Indonesia, and she utterly refused to believe I knew what I was talking about in regards to China. She's never left her island, but she said "maybe you just had a bad day" when I was telling my experiences about China, since she asked. Like, yeah, in all my time in China, I had a couple days where I was in a bad mood, and met some other bad mood Chinese people, and otherwise China is so perfect and functioning properly as a society. I talked to a Romanian that was so excited that I had been to her two favorite places, China and India, and wanted to wax about how amazing she thought Asia is and how "Asians see the world in a way that Europeans forgot." I couldn't believe it. She kept going on about how even greetings in Japan and across Asia are so much more special and touching than "Hello." She told me how the old Chinese and Korean and Japanese people she met were so wise and great, and how those cultures truly respect old people, unlike in the West. I couldn't handle it, and I had to stop replying to her and delete her messages because there was absolutely no use in trying to discuss outside what she's built in her mind about Asia's noble savages. On the upside, I matched with an Indian girl that had a lot of questions about China due to the political issues between the countries. I explained about face culture and she kept repeating how she could not believe that people would willingly choose to act that way. She accepted it, but it made her think of Mainlanders like aliens who loved self-abuse and to abuse others. She just could not understand how society and humans would want to continue living in face culture, and teaching it to the new generations.

Maybe she was a Dracula. Sounds like one of those really sentimental types Anne Rice writes about, waxing nostalgic about how great life was centuries ago. I imagine some Transylvanian peasant girl would've had her mind blown by the Orient and developed a really glowing view of it. Now she's sitting in her castle, totally ignorant of how those places have changed.

Hi there I've been dating my girlfriend for six months I just found out that she's pregnant. We are pretty happy and nervous at the same time. She told me that she needs to get married before she announces she pregnant. Then started breaking down crying. In the Chinese culture is it frowned upon? I do love this girl, but in America it's also frowned upon to marry when you haven't been dating for a couple years. What exactly do you think we should do? I really do want to marry her, but why rush it because we found out she's pregnant? I told her as long as we are happy she shouldn't care what her friends/family think. What do you guys think? We are in the United States as well

The shooter was identified as 64 year-old white male Stephen Paddock, her roommate and probable boyfriend. The two are pictured together. My guess is that they had an open arrangement like many WMAF marriages do.
