[quote=“miltownkid”]Sexy Beijing - Lost in Translation - Danwei TV

Here’s one from that site. It’s a Sex in the City style show with some Chinese flava. It’s pretty good. It’s always fun watching foreigners speak Chinese (and Chinese speak foreign.)[/quote]

That was awesome. I wish I had the ability to do that here. Hello bob with little ‘b’ you interested? It also made me long to go study in Bejing. Her chinese was good.

This is a Japanese guy dressed in a B/W striped jacket. He screams at people to startle them. It had me in tears.

I used to have a lot of respect for the great track star, Carl Lewis, until I saw this video. :roflmao:

And the Guitar dude. Shite, he’s just some teen in his bedroom but he plays like a star. [/quote]

personally and narcissistically speaking, if there is some guy out there who can play like that, i don’t wanna know about it. i don’t need to know about it, for my own sense of self, whatever there is left after the humbling, “you are not unique experience” the internet brings.

nah, i’ll play him under the table anyday. but nobody will recognize it as such because “wow” rules.

i think youtube is a freak fest. it’s an “yes everybody can be a producer and does” site. i prefer the old system. i don’t want to live in an “everybody” world.

Does this video rock the planet?

當然!!!

I see this becoming apart of the secret lingo, only furrieners livin’ in Taiwan can understand :bravo:

miltownkid · August 27, 2006, 1:36pm

不可能!!!

bob · August 27, 2006, 1:45pm

I wish I could say but couldn’t get it to play.

You and MK are ambitious though, perhaps I can get a brief synopsis.

Oh lordy lordy, you totaly don;t even want to know. it’s hidious!!!

Perhaps but then again at the “he left right? brain film studio and language school” are none too picky it must be admitted.

miltownkid · August 27, 2006, 2:04pm

不可能!!! (Impossible!)

在台北… 下雪?! (Snow in Taipei?!)

不
可
能!!!

在台北… 沒有人的一天?! (A day in Taipei with no people?!)

不
可
能!!!

在台北… 珍珠奶茶是外國人最愛的飲料? Pearl Milk Tea are feriners favorite drink?

當然!!!
(of course)

It’s the way the guy says Bukeneng that’s funny. The feriner looks funny during the DanRang!

It’s some kind of propaganda about feriners loving peral milk tea.

In any event I’m sure that with a bit of pluck and circumstance the radical left of forumosa could certainly do better. Indeed, having another gaze at “Birth of Song” just now I’ve concluded that under the influence of a good bit of gravol it’s not a bad look, perhaps even movie night material if nama promises not to laugh…

anon38216271 · August 27, 2006, 2:18pm

Be more worried about me critiquing it. Once a filmmaker, always a filmmaker.

bob · August 27, 2006, 2:25pm

It would be an exhausting endeavour I’m afraid. It is like an “all the possible mistakes you could possibly make” video. Has an odd, and I mean really odd, charm though.

smell_the_glove · August 27, 2006, 3:10pm

Took forever to download, but boy oh boy was it worth it. Every time he said “不” I jumped out of my seat. Funny thing is, his voice is like that in English, too:

i gotta admit youtube has some good stuff, like bruce lee’s lost green hornet episodes and such. but it’s also a freak fest. today some girl posted about how she’d lost fat around her stomach.BFD!

what’s the trend here? the majority wins? anybody can post anything and then we vote on what’s the best? group-think kid stuff.

Mr_PBH · August 29, 2006, 9:19am

Maybe all the people there simply raise the bar…

Maybe that girl was crying for help in a socially acceptable manner. She obviously doesn’t need to lose weight.

So why do you feel you just have to watch it? No one has put a .45 to your head and said WATCH! have they? Simple solution…you don’t like it, don’t watch it. “group-think” indeed.
