      'good old chinese, eh,' implies one of two things:

      1. This person has a good knowledge of things Chinese, for example, history, culture, politics?....maybe has even visited the country?....has Chinese friends and has discussed the paradoxes and complexity of China at the moment?

      2. Or its just a glib racist slur.

        That photograph could've been taken at an Olympics in any country in the world. The "good old Chinese" comment clearly implied that the photo demonstrated a negative preconception of the state of affairs in China.... which would be justifiable if it was a photo of Chinese military police "suppressing" demonstators with batons (as it would at least be true to form), but a photograph of poverty alongside wealth, or hidden behind corporate facades is no more specific to China than 99% of the rest of the world's nations.

        Of course two wrongs don't make a right, but here's one to even it up a bit (and yes, what this photo represents pisses me off!):UK.JPG
        Good Old British eh? 😉

          Things that really piss (inclusive) me off:

          “… wickedness and the solemn meeting I cannot bear.” (Isaiah 1:13)

          Other translations:
          “I cannot away with iniquity and the solemn meeting.”
          “I cannot endure iniquity and the solemn assembly.”
          “I cannot endure iniquity and profanation, even the solemn meeting.”

            The photo of China could pretty much represent any new development in my town or in just about any other - shiny and new on one side of the fence - derelict and neglected on the other. I think it is a universal double standard.

              …PERFIDIOUSNESS…?!?

              Occasionally, we are mor perfidious than Judas…!

              Memorable scene:
              "And as soon as Judas was come, he goeth straightway to Him, and saith, Master, and kissed Him." (Mark 14:45)

                Cornel, please don't take this as an insult, I don't intend it that way, but it never fails to amaze me how unintelligible your posts are. You're obviously an intelligent guy (girl?), but no matter how hard I try I can never extract any actual meaning or intent behind your posts other than quoting what seems to me to be random biblical texts and your brief, almost coded references to them. Why do you choose to be so cryptic with your own words, but so literal with those of the Bible? I'm genuinely interested!... and pleeeeease, is it too much to ask you to reply to my this question without quoting the Bible?

                    Yes, Jackson,

                    …behold an example re. “a thing that piss me of”, “without quoting the Bible”:

                    "You will never know that Jesus is all you need, until Jesus is all you have."
                    (by Max Lucado)

                          Stinkie,
                          If it’s not suitable, you can inverse that phrase!

                          Perceive:
                          "Until Jesus is all you have", "you will never know that Jesus is all you need"!

                                it pisses me off when people post in a "what pisses you off" thread and then get completely off topic and start being grammar nazis.

                                just kidding

                                    A little vista pop up that say: "This file is larger than 2 GB" cheers guys, really useful 👍

                                    Im a bit peeved with the whole computer thing at the moment, so please bear with me if i burst in to random little rants about the inadequacy of windows or any programs that run on it.

                                      Ah yes ... Windows. Those "you need permission for this or that" pop ups really tick me off. What were they thinking when they put those in? "Let's add an extra, completely redundant step to several processes"?

                                      And, while I'm at it, bleedin' Windows Media Player. Bloated, useless junk.

                                        Too true stinkie, and they never actually stop anythign that might harm your computer. They just slow down everything else that completely legitimate, like creating a folder in a system dierctory (god forbid you should ever want to do that!)

                                          Yeah. Despite the fact that users have been nagging for years that Windows has too many annoyances (useless stuff + bells and whistles that are only there to impress), Microsoft has not altered it's approach. And that approach is: to pile up features seemingly randomly, instead of coming up with a well-balanced, non-top heavy OS. At times, it seems like MS is clueless.

                                          If I could, I'd switch to Mac OS permanently.
