Chinese New Year just around the corner, KUNG HEI FAT CHOI

teehee... Yucky food

Recv'd from a colleague today. Made me chuckle...

Once upon a time,
a baby girl was born in town,
the girl's warm personality is her greatest charm,
every years on that date, she was drunk... with celebration time,
somehow she has come to this eastern ground,
and the celebration is come on next week sometime,
Hey girl, do you have time?

Since losing my worldly possessions in a taxi recently, Ive been hassling every driver I meet about location of said missing items.
Recent taxi driver, said I was a crazy gweilo and should take more care then insisted I take and study a variety of materials, including:

Lai See Packet, containing not cash as is customary this time of year for cny, but instead what appears to be Buddist scriptures (in chinese):

CD Rom of above:

Random old, slightly moldy postcard:

Bookmark with following printed on the backside:

If you are in a book store and cannot find
the book you are looking for, you're obviously
in the.....

Yes, it does in fact read:
"Playing in a brothel is my favourite - Renew your mood with your chin up"

Some amusing random stickers that LJ picked up for me in a stationary shop.

As you are probably aware from previous posts, my blessed Chinese colleagues are renowned for speaking their mind on your weight (and often in a non-complimentary fashion) much to the offence of the westerner in question (Gasp! Did they actually just call me a gigantic ugly disgusting gweilo?!!).

It has obviously become a widespread problem in western expat communities, prompting the action of one particular English teaching school here in HK, who have filmed and aired the most hilarious commercial all about how, in western society, it is impolite to comment upon one's weight. They recommend instead of shouting you FAT PIG, the use of the phrase 'you look well'.

I saw it on the bus this morning (as I was scoffing a scone that contains fat content highly contagious to my ass) on the way to work and couldn't stop giggling.
I tried googling the flock out of it but to no avail, but if I spot it again Ill be sure to get it up online somehow.

Here's a retail sample that was recently bought for a presentation at work.
Anyone able to spot why we absolutely CANNOT show this to any customers:



Hmmm, not exactly helping to promote a professional image I would say:


Conversation:
Me - you cant show that, its a bit outrageous.
Colleague - why not
Me - You do know what that means right?
Colleague - not really
Me - Its about drugs
Colleague - waaaah, drugs, really?
Me - YES weed, hash, cannabis its known as....
