The trip is taking place in about ten days. I've scrambled, and managed to get myself a few places to stay. Now I need to find things to do.
Punching bag is a good idea, but they're expensive, and none of the local gyms have one.
China seems like the perfect place to try new things, though. Traditional things. Maybe check if there's any festival or event happening while you're staying there? Also make sure to try the really weird traditional food!
I particularly hate it when I realize a show I'm watching has magically turned into harem trash. Once it crosses that line, it suddenly feels like a massive waste of time to keep going.
I am holding the door open for this dude at a gas station and he just stops and stares at me. I motion to the door and the guy says, "wouldn't you like me to go through, F*g."
So I sighed and pulled the door shut behind him. He then gets mad and calls me some rather impressive combinations of profanities. I didn't reply because I knew I wouldn't win a shouting match with a retard without reverting to full blown jerry springer show insults.
I ask.. was it necessary? Is acting a fool to someone simply holding a door open for you worth being a butthole? I can't figure it out.

i don't know if i could have kept a straight face if someone said that like that.
1. Dude has an online girlfriend in another town, which is either a one hour flight or two hour drive away.
He never met her, never video-called, never saw her photos, never spoke to her by voice. She says she needs money because college has been expensive. He sends her money. USD 150 (hundred and fifty) every month.
When they talk of meeting, she is never available. They have been dating for months.
2. Kid is 16, Asian.
Met a girl in a chatroom who claims to be a 20-year-old Eurasian. He shows her his photos. She compliments him. He never heard her voice, saw her photos, etc. She tells him she is a gamer. I talked to her; she is either mocking me, faking humility or plain ignorant (calling me knowledgeable when I explained about basic RPG mechanics like Attack, Speed, etc.). She also told me she doesn't know what an MMO is.
We tried to 1x1 roleplay together. It was decided that we do a virtual reality setting. Two hours in, she was confused when I questioned about her character.
I was thinking she has a difficulty to trust people, having attachments and all not being in her intentions, but she's loyal...has a sense of humor
Backstrory being the cliche lost parents or missing and raised by a gang of strangers, masters few techniques of "knifery" and close range combat
I asked her if she understood what was discussed so far. No reply. Been ignoring me for three days now.
I told the kid, "She doesn't sound like a smart cookie." Because he told me before he needs his girlfriend to be smart, pretty and kind. Also told him to watch out because he doesn't even know if she is really a "she". Even if she were, they are at different stages of life, and they're seven hours away. She could be wanting to tap his shouta (underaged, young boy) ass then gtfo.
Kid gets defensive and said she talks to him differently. Implied that I wouldn't "get" him because I am happy with my boyfriend.
...
Fuck off, man. Why do some people want to be catfished? The cringeworthy part is that these people are in my social messenger contacts, and in a group with me. Can't ignore the bullshit because they PM me to update on said bullshit too, even though I told them not to bring it up.
...
Bonus rant:
There has been a teenager who lamented about how "perfect" my relationship with my boyfriend is, and after getting to know me, expressed how "perfect" I am. (Shudder.) He has set me as a benchmark for girlfriend material. In his words:
Where does a man find a beautiful, nerdy, free-spirited girl. LIKE REALLY.
It was nice, until he weeps about how he'll die alone. On a regular basis. Despite being told he just needs to stop hanging out with girls from a chatroom full of roleplayers worse than one-liners, or chicks that just want to cyber.
This is not a bitch more of me trying to get my anger out due to what just happened.
I am mad, really mad now. My shit head of a neighbour who has his own place around the corner as a dog or two living next door. Both are totally untrained as I hear them shouting at them when they want them to come in. Anyway as I was returning home as I had to walk the dog, the dog next door comes rushing out of the house and suddenly attacks my dog. I was dumping his waste into my bin at this time as the Staffordshire Bull Terrier went for my Jack Russel Terrier. Suddenly a yelp follows and the fucking thing is biting my dog and chomping at him.
I had to pull him off as the guy next door took his sweet time coming out to stop it. By the time I had got the other dog under control the git grabs him though not before letting his dog get another few bites in. FUCK HIM, FUCK THAT UNTRAINED DOG AND FUCK HIM EVEN MORE FOR KEEPING THE FRONT DOOR OPEN SO A UNTRAINED DOG COULD COME AND HURT MINE. My dog has issues, when he was a puppy another dog bite him and so since then has never been able to be near other dogs or animals in general. I was close to hitting the other dog who was going at mine like a rabid animal. It is not cruel to hit an animal when I am trying to defend mine right? I mean I didn't in the end as I had to split them up.
I don't think he even said sorry but what would I know when I was listening to something while it was happening. That twat probably doesn't care and on that for some reason probably blames me for my dog being out there. I was too mad and too concerned for my dog's safety to even yell at the cunt. How does an abusive asshole even get to keep his dog[s]. I heard he force breeds them though I have no proof of it other then there dogs being taken away, he kept one of them, though. Where do you put it, where do you place such a feeling?
That's not really weird - in fact it's delicious to go with porridge.
...Ok, maybe it looks weird to you Western peeps. That's like one of the most commonly seen dishes in Asia, not just China y'know. *shrugs*

If you really want to try weird food, Beijing and Guangdong are places you can consider. Like, anyone wants fried scorpion for appetizer and fresh (read: raw) monkey brain for main course? Heh.

CENTURY EGGSSS. MY PA JUST MADE SOME FOR SUPPER. With his onion-sprinkled porridge. Oh. And, salted egg + century egg + steamed egg mix is delish.
General bitching about my hair - too freaking coarse, too kinky, too damn thick. Conditioner instructions - Use a quarter sized amount. (Yeah freaking right! ~dumps half the damn bottle in her hair and then still needs more~)
