The illegal foreigners... most work as English teachers, right? by 2orangey4crowsin China

[–]2orangey4crows[S] 1 point2 points ago

I thought it was just a degree... no?

I think "foreigner" means white/black person though. Is the crackdown really against other Asians?

Can anybody name a worse iPhone feature than minimizing the App Store everyfuckingtime you buy something? by wefandangoin iphone

[–]2orangey4crows 0 points1 point ago

I have my phone on silent and open a video from the camera roll... it plays with sound.

Hold your finger down in the box (like you want to use the magnifying glass) and scroll horizontally... it works.

Foreigner who raped a local woman to be sentenced next week... by lpfaderin China

[–]2orangey4crows -1 points0 points ago

I think he did that on purpose...

CCTV on the hunt for illegal laowai: "Get rid of foreign scum, target Sanlitun and Wudaokou" by tomcarterin China

[–]2orangey4crows 0 points1 point ago

I suspect about 97.3% of the anger targeted at foreigners is coming from Chinese men jealous "their women" would rather fuck a whitey.

A few recent food scandals in China by DragonSlave49in China

[–]2orangey4crows 3 points4 points ago

It's funny, back in Ireland they used to tell us be careful frying food as it may lead to cancer... or be careful eating too much fish because of the heavy metals... but in China... haha... fuck.

How does this crap make it past the Apple review process? by RiseDarthVaderin iphone

[–]2orangey4crows 0 points1 point ago

I've bought a number of apps which don't work (i.e. crash when you try to do something with them). The "report this app" link in the appstore doesn't work so now I just don't buy apps anymore.

Is it possible to get a refund for bullshit apps?

NEW WAY IN CHINA TO FIGHT SEXUALLY-TRANSMITTED DISEASE: DENY PASSPORTS TO WOMEN by EastEndin China

I know a simpleton (an actual simpleton, he's 25 but you would think he is 11 or 12) who is a member of the party. Connected parents.

Rising wealth in China fails to buy more happiness by ttruth1in China

The blind pursuit of money doesn't lead to happiness... life 101!

"Hello?" by whimsicalwonderingin China

[–]2orangey4crows 2 points3 points ago

Also, I try to make an effort to be nice to Chinese as I often see rude foreigners, and I know Chinese people tend to be slightly worse at critical thinking, e.g. does it make sense that all foreigners are bad people? I don't think that sort of questioning comes naturally to the average Chinese person.

"Hello?" by whimsicalwonderingin China

[–]2orangey4crows 5 points6 points ago

I think if it bothers you it suggests you have other anger/mood issues you need to deal with.

I think the random hellos are funny.

Of course, if things change and the hellos start being accompanied with a fist, then I will start worrying, but up to now it is always an almost childish friendliness or a drunk person.

IAmA former Hooters girl...AMA, no really by tinydancer929in IAmA

No need for name calling? No need to be spitting in people's food!

Anyone else pick up on the Troyzan and Kat romance vibe? by FrEddieMurphcuryin survivor

[–]2orangey4crows 1 point2 points ago

She's banging her cousin (?!) though so that fact that he's old enough to be her dad is probably a turn on.

DAE think that Survivor 25 is gonna have a returning player get to the end? by quantum_suicidein survivor

[–]2orangey4crows 3 points4 points ago

I think they purposefully pick contestants who have sheep personalities so the returnees will do well.

Avoiding food poisoning/foodborne illness in China by PaginaDentatain China

[–]2orangey4crows 0 points1 point ago

I have been in China a year and have never gotten food poisoning, but the one time I did feel a little strange (don't know if it was due to food poisoning) I only at in McDonald's that day...

Anyone have a run in with police yet over the foreigner crackdown? by tipotterin China

[–]2orangey4crows 2 points3 points ago

I just spent a week in Chongqing (probably China's most heavily policed city - there are police everywhere) and was not bothered, so there doesn't appear to be any problems there.

Note I general dress quite well and look respectable. Don't know if this makes a difference or not. I'm white.

The Visa Crackdown and You - City Weekend by becauseicarein China

[–]2orangey4crows 0 points1 point ago

Are you serious? Do you have a link to the pictures?

Something about the video which is really bothering me is how the Chinese media are showing it without the clips of people trying to kill him when he's unconscious.

A German man who alleges he was subjected to "extraordinary rendition" by the CIA has taken his case to the European Court of Human Rights. by Hansamanin worldnews

[–]2orangey4crows 0 points1 point ago

The bombs were dropped for political reasons. I've seen the letter. In a nutshell US politicians felt they had spent so much money developing the bombs there would be political fallout if they didn't use them. Yes, their careers were more important than the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. The bomb memorial museum in Hiroshima has the letter.

Trailer to "Seeking Asian Female", a documentary about an American man finding a Chinese woman and the documentarian caught in between by LSkyin China

[–]2orangey4crows -1 points0 points ago

I really don't think the average Chinese girl expects a new BMW or new house from their "rich" partner. You are using an extreme example to make your point.

In the final five, why did Kim not give Chelsea her idol? by crammedcityin survivor

[–]2orangey4crows 4 points5 points ago

I suspect it was to not show favouritism and risk losing possible jury votes...
