Question: “Chinese stir fry is so tasty, why don’t westerners learn how to make it?” Answer: “When you can eat your fill of steak and lobster and oysters every day and have fresh salad with every meal, would you want to pour on a ton of oil and chilli peppers and salt to eat a bunch of animal offal?
“When I was in Japan, a hairdresser told me I was cute like a puppy.”
One time when I was a little kid in my "girls are icky" phase my father told me that someday I'd want a girlfriend to cuddle with and I said no because I have a dog and dogs are cuter than girls. My father said "Well, if it's just some strange woman you see on the street then that's true, but if it's a woman you love then she's just as cute as a dog" and my mother went "wait a minute."
Theoretically, it's a Chinese shorthand for "peer-to-peer lending", a really popular thing that people invested in--a platform that could collect little amounts of money from a ton of people, and then lend it to people who need money, charge interest, and give it back to the original investors. In actuality, it was only ever nothing more than a ponzi scheme in China.
It started around 2010, and was extremely popular at the time, because a lot of higher up CCP officials personally did ads for it and called for people to invest and stuff. Then various platforms started collapsing in 2018, and all of 2019 was spent cleaning up the disaster. In 2020, the whole concept was banned in China.
I can tell you that every single Singaporean man who’s had to serve in the infantry during their National Service and complete the mandatory jungle survival training in Brunei will say it is literally hell on earth 🥹
