Around China : knightly commented on news Drunk Man in Wrong House Mistakes Owner for Thief, Kills Her

I used to live in Nanning. NOBODY leaves their door unlocked as it is the thieving capitol of China. The story reads like another homily warning of the dangers of excessive drinking. Full Comment>>

This is surely to reduce the number of copycat wanna-be photographers from performing similar stunts. Originality isn't in their blood and the government acknowledges that with this ridiculous prosecution Full Comment>>

This story is obviously a modern twist on a homily to show how dedication in marriage can overcome bureaucracy. True love prevailed and the couple lived happily ever after... Of course Mrs peasant couldn't drive, couldn't communicate with anyone and got fat sitting on the coach all day eating bonbons and watching ... Full Comment>>

Around China : knightly commented on news Photographer Criticized for Nude Forbidden City Photo Shoot

I don't find this artistic at all. This has all been done before and in much better taste. It is as if he has seen some of Spencer Tunick's work on you tube and maybe looked at a few Helmut Newton nudes and then convinced some slapper to get her kit off in a public place in the name of 'art'. The only purpose here ... Full Comment>>

Around China : knightly commented on news Forbidden City Speaks Out Against Nude Photo Shoot

So this person is a Spencer Tunick wannabe? Hardly creative when its been done before and by much better photographers - see Tunick's work outside the Louvre. Buying a ticket and racing ahead of the crowd to snap a few nudes seems to point to the level of this 'art'. It is offensive both to photographers and to the ... Full Comment>>

You are right, you are nothing special as evidenced by your banal reasons accompanied by an apologetic, almost patronising tone. What about meeting people from around the world? What of the personal satisfaction in overcoming barriers to achieve the seemingly simplest of things? What of the joy in the help and ... Full Comment>>

The real reason is that China offers nothing that millennials and Gen X'ers value or desire. Example, fast, secure and unrestricted internet -no. Access to the latest technology at great prices- no.

The headline is "Liaoning girls hot under the collar...." The idiom means angry or mad not horny! So, the girls are angry that a shirtless african is flippin burgers?
