Having not read any of the articles.

China's traffic is F!@#2 insane.

I was in a cab in Beijing speeding to the airport. All of a sudden my cab driver is honking like a mad man, cab drivers in China don't really honk and hold, just a double tap here and there. He was honking like crazy, while he switched lanes there was another cab driving the wrong way in my lane on the HWY.

There was no traffic at that hour.

Usually traffic is like the above pictures + cyclist + mopeds + people. They turn a 5 lane HWY into a 7-8 lane HWY. It all moves fairly quickly, organized chaos style.

I was in traffic one time and all of a sudden we hear a siren, it wasn't on like it was an emergency, it was like a "double tap" siren haha. The driver was honking with his siren.

I turn around and look, it was 2 blacked out Audi A6's, dark tints, it was the military. Traffic got the fuk out of its way, it was like the Parting Seas, but with vehicles. (Tints are illegal in China)


Side note: To this day i still do not understand the difference in their law enforcement. If you travel in the city you will notice 5-6 different kinds of police sometimes not armed, sometimes armed to the max, sometimes riding some shitty bikes and not looking intimidating, but everyone is afraid of them.

I know there are undercovers who will F you up if you do something wrong (such as speak about the govt).

however...if you're into women with no tits, hairy bush and mangled teeth, it's a fucking GOLD MINE

Well fuck, you just made it SO much more appealing

It's not the country itself, it's the people that I can't stand. I'd go to HK just to say I've done it, outside of that if mainland...only to take a shit on a busy street and say I've done it then dip. Even then I can do that in Markville mall anyway and no one will care.

I'm really going to have to start putting /sarcasm in my posts.

I thought the O2 tank bit gave away the sarcasm.

been to shanghai and it is nice.

was there for work and the factory was an hour out of the city. it really is bad out there. people were more like animals and the area smelled like garbage too.

no desire to go back.

It's the people. I can't stand Landers.

Hong Kong is still good as now the Lander infestation has gone from HK straight to Korea, Taiwan, Japan etc... They can deal with the infestation.

The smog is craptastic anywhere on China.

Why?


The landers love to shop. The price of goods have increased significantly the past 2-3 years. The landers no longer see the value to shop in HK even though the RMB is still worth more than HKD.

I was watching the HK news few weeks ago during "Golden Week", the mainlanders went to Japan and bought out the store's inventory on over the counter medication, baby formulas, health supplements, cosmetics, etc. It was cray cray. I guess good for the economy.
