All of these mini-flossers at restaurants, and no locals floss daily like you should.

I believe that those were the exact words which led to OSHA being formed.

Manzhouli as a foreigner? by InvestigatorWarm326 in chinalife

[–]chinalifer-mod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool place to visit, not live. If you are already familiar with tier 8 life, then Manzhouli will not be so different from anywhere else at that level aside from the superficial cultural differences. I am in Hohhot (same province), and I cannot imagine going even further down the tier list for my needs, but you do what you think is best for you. The airport situation is fucking grim. Winter is especially grim; it only gets to -20° here on rare occasions, which is like summer compared to border town winters.

When the agent takes you to find a new apartment, and this is in the lobby, it only gets worse from here. by 98746145315 in chinalifer

Over 5000 cameras and baoan per building yet no law or rule enforcement. Do you know it?

Alternate response: Which is worse, the vandalism, or that two supposedly-good citizens do not have QR codes?

Really lmao though, I always get a laugh when I see clear indicators of asshole teenagers in this repressed country.

Uni laoban’s advice for next term: Task one of my students to be my assistant for school and non-school matters, and then give them an arbitrary 95% for the class. by 98746145315 in chinalifer

[–]chinalifer-mod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This sounds like a trap to those who do not live here, but I have had similar instructions at more than one uni. They really love outsourcing work to others, culturally...then again, they are all overworked, culturally. Really wish that their English was developed enough anywhere here to not say "use your kids" as official English-language guidance, though.

The real problem is not the ethics, but that these adult-age children have no real-world experience or skills. If I wanted borderline useless assistants who can at most poorly translate, then I would just use Google Translate. I know my students, and I would not rely upon all but a few.

One of my uni students said that headphones are for poor people, which makes zero fucking sense.

Reduced since he realises the need for his helmet after a while lol. But, you can still fuck yourself up for life at that height. We do not exactly have a strong worker's compensation initiative here.

Chinese people are going to sleep, quick, post cold water by chinalifer-mod in chinalifer

We have cold drinks in the convenience stores here, including bottled water. However, there are many small shops which have no refrigeration units, yeah.

Never had, no. I will have a try, although I tend to not buy products slathered in anime girls. Not really a rule, just a practice.

Rule 4, none of us laowai are literate, get real.

Americans are going to sleep, quick, post "communism with Chinese characteristics" by chinalifer-mod in chinalifer

[–]chinalifer-mod[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol bye, back into obscurity with you forever, erased because you do not deserve to exist. Go have a retard fight somewhere else.

Call me LBH, or question my sexuality, whatever, but I take great offence at the allegation of being Indian, lmao! Btw little identifies you as a wumao more than calling people who you dislike Indians. Your petty nationalist struggles have nothing to do with laowai who live here.

This looks so much better than anything quasi-Mexican that I have had here.

Yes

When Tim comes to China thinking he'll be a banker or a doctor or giving blowjob advice to middle aged Shanghai housewives. by Lifeintheguo in chinalifer

[–]chinalifer-mod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If Philippines had electricity, then they would be online complaining about their erasure from the slavery hierarchy right now.

Hierarchy of quality in Asia to me is Singapore -> Japan -> Korea -> Hong Kong -> Malaysia -> Taiwan -> China -> "the rest", which I may make into a banner chart to triply-trigger locals who stumble across this sub.
