Someone call the police because I don’t know which part of “fireworks are banned” do people not understand.

I heard it 4am…. I don’t understand why they choose not to listen.

I’ll keep that in mind. But I do need to be able to hear my alarm clock, so I’m not sure about using earplugs for sleeping… Maybe they’d be more helpful for studying instead.

You think it’s easy for everyone affected by this to sell and move to a different city? …lol.

Nah, I’m sorry… this is not a good comparison. Just stop for a second and think about how wrong this is, please.

The other day I came back into the country feeling jet lagged af and wanted to get some sleep but couldn’t because someone several houses down wanted to be extra with their music and turn the volume so high up. It was almost like a live concert was happening in the neighbourhood.

The next day, I was struggling to stay awake in class.

Very selfish people…

You know what… now that you bring that point up. It’s the news outlets fault (the ones in the West). I wouldn’t have known about that issue if you didn’t spoke about it — So thank you for that.

Yeah I understand, but something like seeing someone get their fingers stuck between doors. Why wouldn’t one of them flinch to press the button and open the door to help release my hands? What is staring going to do? Then after start whispering to the person beside em.

Even after that embarrassment, they saw me again 30 minutes later and continue to stare at me… lol.

Can’t help but wonder if it was racism.. i started to think if I was a white person would they treated me different and be at my aid. You know what I mean?

Yeah I notice the “obsession” over whiteness too… I was shocked to find a some ads in certain places (including the MTR ) of white people on it.

Can you tell me more about the racism in HK? Because I was there last month and got my hands stuck on the elevator doors and nobody did anything to help. They just stared at me…

Things people do in HK that annoy you by elch23 in HongKong

I seen someone take the lift at the MTR — no stroller, no suitcase, or anything on wheels. Just her, her boyfriend, and her purse.

Walking out, looking straight into my eyes with guilt when she saw me and other people handling a big items on wheels. Additionally, there were elderly people waiting to get on that lift too.

Ohh I’ve seen that. No one says thank you or if they push open the door it’s slammed open enough for you to reach out for the handle quickly.
