Some guy hit a pedestrian in his car? And his mum turned up at the hospital and stabbed the victim.
Ok, it makes sense now where Taiwans entitled little bitch traffic culture comes from.
What’s with the simplified characters?
Is this from the PRC?

Check the thread title…
I was thrown off by the “Taiwans” part in the post.
But yes I get it now.

Yes Taiwans culture of not admitting fault to save face comes from China. Seems they are a notch higher on the crazy scale but still, same bullshit.
Quite funny how simplified characters get get such an irrational response of dislike though. They are just that ugly!
Delivery driver puts his kid into the delivery container when picking them up from school. Teacher looks a bit concerned.
That journal looks to be pretty much entirely staffed by Chinese academics and I’m not sure how much English editing gets done, but I would have expected that to be removed nonetheless.
It was kind of unavoidable if using an abbreviation though, and “CNTs” (for carbon) is already very well established. It looks to be not the first time this has been used either — see the one below from 2007.
And Chemical Communications is a real journal, probably in the top couple of dozen chemistry journals globally, where I believe everything gets properly edited… and this either slipped through or the editors were in the end fine with it (I suspect it was probably the latter, because it’s quite noticeable).
We were blessed with this reply from a citizen of the glorious motherland, explaining the situation for us.
中国人和所有外国人生活在同一个星球,中国不是天堂,更不是地狱。在中国城市里接送小学低 年级的孩子上学放学是普遍现象,跟治安无关,主要原因有两个:①因为有流量有关注度,所有媒体长期针对孩子的刑事案件大肆报道增加了家长的焦虑。②孩子承载希望,每个孩子对家庭来说都是最宝贵的财富。
Chinese people and all foreigners live on the same planet. China is neither heaven nor hell. In Chinese cities, it is a common phenomenon to pick up and drop off primary school children. It has nothing to do with public security. There are two main reasons: ① Because of the traffic and attention, all media have been reporting criminal cases against children for a long time, which increases parents’ anxiety. ② Children carry hope. Every child is the most precious wealth for a family.
Alternatively ‘AllenPRC’ chimes in with this objective analysis
Wow…”the kids could be in danger”…it maybe something that you never know…”Parental love”….
I hate zoos. That said. I would go to this zoo just to see this. In fact, I think if there were a zoo with animals, maybe just dogs, dressed as other animals, I’d go to that.
I said when this story came out ages ago that many people would enjoy that.
It would be a Shih Tzu ![]()
I prefer some barium carbon monoxide nitrides…

I would love a zoo full of cats pretending to be any animal other than cats.
He got wacked
So . . . disappearances will continue until morale improves? ![]()
