02/18/24 - The nurse got so mad that she spanked me several times.
“Before I set off, I went to see my grandma. She was super sexism, never liked me or my sister. I still have a scar on my stomach from where she burned me with hot oil. The five years I spent with her were an absolute nightmare. Even now, every time I think about it, my heart clenches in pain. I honestly hated going to see my grandma. I couldn’t forgive her. But when I saw her yesterday, it’s like all my hate evaporated. She’s over 90 years old now. She’s very quiet and very thin, and still lives very frugally. She’s eating left overs that she’s been reheating for five days, and drinking instant milk. And I know too that I won’t get to see her too many more times. So I gave her some money, and bought her some crates of milk, and took a photo with her. I promised to come back and see her again for Labour Day [1st of May].”
Comments say, “How can I say this…she’s just old now. She hasn’t stopped being evil.”
“I can’t imagine how upset your mom must’ve been when she did all that to you and your sister. When you chose forgiveness, what is going to happen to your mother’s pain and hatred for all those years? Where are they supposed to go?”
“It’s sort of like you stabbed your loving mom, your comrade in your sister, and your crying child self all in the back.”
“Your grandma sitting over there thinking, see, I knew being strict would produce filially pious kids.”
“I just learned that some couple influencers don’t even know each other. We just got a new manager, and while w were eating together for lunch, he brought up that he used to work for some social media influencer agency, and they owe him a lot of backpay so her quit. And that agency helped run a lot of couples accounts, but these “couples” didn’t even know each other. A lot of the shots was just the guy or the gal interacting with a camera man instead of each other. And they usually take several takes every time, and have a strict script for what these couples were going to say to each other.”
A compilation of comments, “A lot better than childcare bloggers. When the kids get too old, a lot of influencers would just fire them and switch to a new kid, and tell their fans they had a new baby, and their older kiddo doesn’t want to appear on camera now.”
“And there’s a lot of bloggers in their early 20s claiming to be 35+ years old, selling anti-ageing products. As for why I know, my friend’s classmate in real life does this…”
“You guys seen those pet bloggers? I used to work as a video editor for them, and there’s usually like a half dozen cats involved, with a script, and you just keep fucking with the cat until you get the exact shot that matches up with your script. Some people even force it to happen by hand. And all the cats with super round eyes and can smile are all photoshopped. If the company is nice, it’s okay, but some agencies will force the cats to work even when they’re sick.”
“And a lot of bloggers who claim to be college students living in a dorm actually just have a studio built like a dorm.”
“I’ve seen a lot of bloggers who “rescue puppies” and it’s so fucking fake. Like, a newborn puppy, laying in the middle of the road or in a muddy field, absolutely covered in filth, and the captions will say something like, ‘If I hadn’t passed by, he might not have survived.’ What bastards. They threw that puppy there to begin with.”
“June of 1982, a girl in Qinghai, Tao Jinlan, was digging to lay down pipes when she came upon a pile of silver. Being a morally upstanding young woman, she immediately reported it to the government, and after they counted it all, it turned out she had found 67,981 silver coins, and 1569 silver bullions weighing 50 taels [each tael is roughly half an ounce]. She was praised by her village mayor and received a little red flag.
Many years later, she discovered that her great-grandpa had buried that silver.
Another 20 years later, the village mayor’s children have all become big real estate developers. Legends say that their starting capital was all those pieces of silver. And yet Tao Jinlan’s children are still living in caves, working the fields, staring at that little flag in pride.”
Comments say, “They deserve all the suffering they get.”
“Our next generation is so brainwashed.”
“I saw a story that back in those days, they’ll tie dynamite to parents and force their kids to light the fuse. If the kid refuses, they’ll beat him until he’s forced to agree. Finally, the kid relented, lit the fuse, and hugged his parents tight, and the whole family was blown up. When I read that, it just makes me want to cry. I can’t imagine what kind of evil government is capable of this. It’s worse than the Russians, worse than the Japs even. What kind of demon is more evil than them?”
A compilation of embarrassing moments at the hospital:
“No one told me I’d have to lift up my bra to do an EKG!!! Oh my god, it’s so embarrassing!”
“Can you believe that the first time in my life I’ve gotten hickies on my boobs, it was from the stickers on my EKG T_T”
“Went to get a shot, and my butt kept involuntarily clenching so they couldn’t get the needle in. The nurse got so mad that she spanked me several times.”
“I haven’t told anyone in real life about this out of sheer embarrassment, but when I went in for an EKG, they couldn’t get the stickers to stick because my boobs were too big, and the doctor even had to call her teacher in to help. I was so embarrassed that I ended up getting diagnosed with severe arrhythmia lol. I was crying by the time I left T_T”
“A female doctor did my EKG. She was probably in her thirties or forties? When she told me to lift my shirt, I didn’t mind. But when she said I was super flat, it really hurt my feelings.”
“I’m super ticklish so I couldn’t stop giggling while they did my EKG, and the doctor said I had mental problems.”
“First time I went for an EKG, an intern set it up for me, and the doctor looking at my graph were all confused, like I was having a heart attack right now theoretically, but I seemed too young for it. Turns out, it was because he put on the equipment backwards :/“
“I was super small, so when I went to a bathhouse in Dongbei and got a scrub down, the lady there scrubbed so hard that she pushed me right off of the table.”

Comments say, “Chinese people eat all kinds of shit.”
“Just had it for Chinese New Year. It’s honestly not that good.”
From an IP in America: “Just did my taxes with my CPA this year, and learned the following useless facts:
Hotpot waitresses in Flushing are setting records for new wages, 150K USD per year.
Uber drivers are making 160K USD a year too.
Nannies make over 10K a month between wages, tips, and red pockets for holidays.
Street side kebab stalls make over 200K USD in yearly income.
Real estate agents are selling more houses than ever.
Nurses make 400K USD year.
I just had one thought: question border hoppers, understand border hoppers, become border hoppers.”
Comments say, “Then go.”
“Ignore whether this is true or false, what does this have to do with hopping across the border? If you do that, you’re an illegal immigrant. You can’t get any of these jobs. You can only work under the table, and you won’t even make as much as you do in China. Cost of living is super high, and god knows when you’ll be able to get a green card. Why do these border hoppers spend all day criticising China? Because they need to claim political oppression to get a green card.”
“This blogger is tagged “immigration consulting.””
A tiktok video of people gathered by the seaside, filming waves coming in from outside of the safety fence. The blogger says, “You get pretty much the exact same shot inside or outside of the fence. Why do people insist on climbing out?”
Comments say, “Maybe they want to take a swim [doge]”
“If they got swept away, do they have any chance of survival at all?”
“We got too much population. Why not let some select themselves out?”
“Just heard something funny.
Apparently, some county in Hebei is like 8 billion RMB in debt, and was forced to apply for pay cuts, but their boss wouldn’t let them. Apparently, the federal government has some sort of mandate or something, that that county’s wages were already the lowest int he state. They can’t go any lower.
But county finance is on the brink of bankruptcy. There was a director general who retired after working for 42 years and although his full pension is supposed to be over 6000 a month, they’re only giving him 4000 a month.
More interestingly, that county’s officials spent the New Years sending bribes to their boss with only one demand: please approve of our application to cut wages.”
Comments say, “They’re so dumb. If their boss approved that, he’d be getting pay cuts too.”
“What their boss is trying to say is if you need to pay people less, then pay people less, so long as I don’t know about it and no one can accuse me of anything.”
