tfw VPN subscription ran out 1 month before me leaving china

2018-04-01 13:59:12 UTC  

I JUST WANT TO LEAVE

2018-04-01 14:25:59 UTC  

@plasticsword how was it

2018-04-01 14:27:01 UTC  

shit, didn't learn any chinese

2018-04-01 14:27:23 UTC  

but I started recognising more words this last month

2018-04-01 14:27:35 UTC  

would not reccomend

2018-04-01 14:28:43 UTC  

Was thinking of going studying there. What's there a demand for? @plasticsword

2018-04-01 14:29:26 UTC  

dunno

2018-04-01 14:29:45 UTC  

most places would like engineers

2018-04-01 14:29:52 UTC  

english speakers

2018-04-01 14:30:03 UTC  

both pay less than doing it elsewhere

2018-04-01 14:30:11 UTC  

especially engineers here

2018-04-01 14:30:27 UTC  

work is basically the same as anywhere else

2018-04-01 14:30:57 UTC  

if you're mechanical engineer then you would work closer to the manfacturers

2018-04-01 15:18:53 UTC  

Why would you go to a diffrent country and not learn the language?

2018-04-01 15:19:25 UTC  

Chinese is a beautiful language

2018-04-01 15:19:30 UTC  

Really

2018-04-01 15:19:55 UTC  

But chinks are horrible people <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

[6:19 PM] porcorosso: Chinese is a beautiful language

2018-04-01 16:14:11 UTC  

i wonder when someone builds satire site listing "beautiful languages"

2018-04-01 16:14:24 UTC  

and its just list of all of the world languages in A-Z order

2018-04-01 16:14:57 UTC  

cant count how many languages people and media have called "beautiful"

2018-04-01 16:27:49 UTC  

I can explain the beauty of Chinese. It's a very descriptive and picturesque language. Even bad insults still involve terms like flowers. Words are usually constructed out of more primitive terms. Like, Computer? Electronic brain.

2018-04-01 16:28:07 UTC  

Pussy? Garden of peach blossoms

2018-04-01 16:28:14 UTC  

Slut? Flower heart

2018-04-01 16:34:09 UTC  

I agree with that, but its also annoying because that makes their terms so LITERAL sometimes. i mean, look at any of their movie titles

2018-04-01 16:36:12 UTC  

Ready Player One came out, and that movie could easily be translated literally, but instead they go with "Greatest Video Game Player"

2018-04-01 16:36:44 UTC  

China is a great place to visit - and I think if you went to Shanghai it'd even be a great place to study

2018-04-01 16:37:17 UTC  

but dont try to go to "real china"

2018-04-01 16:37:25 UTC  

its a shit hole

2018-04-01 16:37:45 UTC  

Real China = Taiwan

2018-04-01 16:37:47 UTC  

Reminder

2018-04-01 16:38:01 UTC  

sorry , when most people say real china they mean outside the tier 1 cities

2018-04-01 16:38:08 UTC  

and living with normal everyday chinks

2018-04-01 16:38:25 UTC  

I would recommend anyone looking to go to China to instead go to Taiwan

2018-04-01 16:38:31 UTC  

or even hong kong

2018-04-01 16:42:47 UTC  

I have to go back to china in 3 weeks - im dreading it

2018-04-01 19:14:59 UTC  

Remember the good old days when we thought technology would liberate people?

2018-04-01 19:21:05 UTC  

umm.. when was that

2018-04-01 19:21:21 UTC  

? before electricity
