Hey gents. Can't reach facebook from China so thought I'd troll on here, just have to keep away from the members only area or China will ban g35driver too.

First impression, everyone is a damn hipster around here. Sorry Emad (if you're still reading the DFW board) you've got nothing on these people. People with glasses without lenses. Makes me wonder if they'll go to frame-less glasses next.

Shanghai is neat. People shoot off fireworks every night for no apparent reason. Bis @$$ ones too. All the ground floors of the apartments are filled with shops and food stalls all smaller then the size of a small garage. They line the streets with them.

I think the homely women need some kid of permit to walk the streets because 99 out of 100 women are gorgeous. I'm not in whats considered the downtown area as well, that's probably 999 out of 1000. The elderly ones don't get a free pass either.

Weather's been crappy since I got here so sorry no pics. I think that's what's keeping the smog away though, so probably not a bad thing. I've been told not to eat the food, drink the water, or breath the air... WTF? The weather isn't going to clear up before I leave for my final destination either, oh well.

Mostly everything I expected. The Chinese stare me down until I look back then they quickly turn their head. The cops though, they give me the stick eye as long as I'm in their sight!

Pics: I guess the threat of chemical attack is very probable around here, found this in my closet.
My room from the 27th floor, my ears pop going up and down the elevator.

 

Dont do anything stupid, have you ever seen red corner with richard gere?

 

I'm headed to China in March. I'll be sure and get some glassless frames. Thanks for the heads up.

 

lol nice

 

Hahahaha.....he called out Emad. That's all I needed to see.

 

If your in Shanghai accross the Pudong River..I recommend going to Puxi; they've got some nice bars there

 

I'm out in the sticks. Not your typical expat or tourist locations. But I'll keep it in mind next time i'm up that way.
