Semi-Serious Questions
A few questions that I've been wondering for the last couple of weeks:
>Do the Chinese call censored movies "silent films"?
>If you fly across the international date line, does your 5 o'clock shadow adjust to the correct time zone?
>Why does Tianchen East Road actually go north?
>To enter the Olympic Green, your pass must have the letters "OCD" on it. When nearing the Green, 30 to 40 Chinese volunteers will swarm you, searching for this OCD sticker. Do any of them notice the irony?
>Why do 12 ounces of beer and 24 ounces of beer cost exactly the same amount of money at most stores?
>When did "why can't we be friends?" become a legitimate method of international diplomacy?
>If a Chinese speaker asks you an awkward question like "Do you know what eunuchs is?", is it wrong to answer "no" so you can hear them attempt to explain it in broken English?
>With an end-to-end subway ride taking upwards of an hour, how long will it be until the Beijing subway offers sleeper cars?
>Why is Jackie Chan on the cover of this months Cosmo?
>Is Evander Holyfield's ear more famous than David Beckham's right foot?
>Why are the Chinese unable to line up for anything except photos with me?
>What's a blue sky really look like, again?
