Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

Comrades who have been/live in China, I'm visiting sometime next year! I've commented about this before but it's coming up on the new year so.

Any advice on where to go, how to behave, what to see, do? Any information would be appreciated, I'm so excited

For 20 yuan, you can get a pack of those sausages. I’ve seen them at grocery stores.

So I’d say that it’s a ripoff.
