Painted Skin, a parodyBecause I mock things for fun? Parody/recap of the recently released movie Painted Skin, in which lots of hot people starred and abuse of ancient ghost/horror stories was central to the plot. So, just as a refresher (if you want the entire plot of the original story, please go here): Vicki Zhao is Pei Rong, wife of Wang Sheng (also foremost cosmetics dealer in the city - hey, people would probably kill for her complexion) Chen Kun is Wang Sheng, leader of the city troops (and … not much else, as Continue reading

On Sunday, we enjoyed our first hairy crab of the season for the ridiculously eye-popping price of RMB15 at the Lisboa Yum Yum Pot Restaurant at Infiniti Plaza (138 Huaihai Zhong Lu), and it tasted not too bad.

At first we wonder Continue reading
