Ii'm sure someone from the Portland area will tell you about one of our oldest Chinese restaurants: Hung Far Low.

LP: I know just how she feels.

Ahab: Thanks.

Okjimm: I can never remember anything about Hillsdale either.

MB: When I lived in Berkeley there was a Chinese restaurant there called the King Dong (it means "Golden East"). I've also heard of an immigrant from Hong Kong named Fuk King Kwak, though he quickly got a legal name change on arriving here. I suppose a lot of our words sound just as unfortunate to the Chinese.

Post a Comment

Please be on-topic and read the comments policy. Spam, trolls, and fight-pickers will be deleted. If you don't have a Blogspot account and aren't sure how to comment, please see here. Fair warning -- I reject all comments containing any of the following:

1. Support for transgenderism
2. Negativity about Brexit
3. Support for a military draft or compulsory national service

I am not obligated to provide a platform for views I find morally abhorrent. And obviously I'm going to delete anything which is just quoting what an "AI" said. I want to hear from you, not from the always-wrong hallucination machine.

No comments advocating violence against any specific identifiable individual, even jokingly.

Please be considerate -- no political or politics-tinged comments on non-political posts, and no performative cynicism. Finally, please remember that this is a personal blog whose main purpose is to encourage contact from people with similar interests and world-views to mine. I really don't much care for arguing and debating; if arguing and debating is what you want, there are plenty of other places on the internet which welcome that.

From now until the finalization of the election results, no comments claiming the Republicans (or Democrats) will or can "steal" the election. It's pointless to engage with such stuff, and it promotes defeatism, which makes people less likely to vote or otherwise be politically active.
