我的第一个狗仔报导是在我刚刚买好我的新相机大概5分钟左右拍到的…蜘蛛人4在上海拍摄!

Here’s a short guide to doing bold and underline in Facebook chat. It’s pretty simple, but can add some good emphasis to your conversations. They haven’t added different fonts in Facebook chat yet, but they probably will soon. The formatting in FB is similar to Google Talk’s bold and underline system.

Bold in Facebook chat

*Surround your text in stars*
(Shift+8)

Underline in Facebook chat

_Surround your text in underscore_(Shift+Minus sign)

Magic! You now have bold Facebook chat and underline Facebook chat text!

Free animated smilies for Facebook chat!

Move over Pacman, there is a new ‘coolest smiley’ on Facebook – the Facebook shark emoticon! For weeks we have been waiting for new emoticons for Facebook chat, and now the first of many has arrived – the shark!


The shark smiley is cool in many ways, firstly because it really LOOKS like a shark (even when it is not turned into an emoticon) and second it reminds me of the jaws movies from the 1980′s. Epic.

So how do you do a shark emoticon in Facebook chat? Here is is, the shark emoticon. Enjoy!

Strange massage fetish hits Shanghai Twitter (奇怪的癖好侵袭上海)

In the #Shanghai channel of Twitter, there are often ‘adult’ messages advertising nocturnal services, generally aimed at men looking for something special for the weekend.

在Twitter的上海站经常会有一些’成人’夜间服务广告信息.通常都是针对周末寻找特殊服务的男人们的.

These messages tend to be quite samey. Hot girl / Big boobs / 500rmb per hour / XXX / Call me. This afternoon, however, I was disturbed to read the first fetish message in my Twitter feed…and this one is freaky.

这些信息相当无聊.辣妹/大胸/500块一小时/XXX/电话我.可是今天下午我突然看到了第一个引起我注意的信息…很奇怪的一个.

Well, as long as she waxes her top lip…

恩~~只要她为她的上嘴唇打蜡…

Some people think I’m a prick for mocking translations all the time…so I think it’s time to acknowledge a brilliant shop name. A shop that sells gadgets, called…Gismo!

有些人觉得我是个老喜欢玩文字游戏的笨蛋…那么现在是时候让你们承认一个很棒的店名了.一个卖小器具的店…叫小玩意!

Wait…shouldn’t that be Gizmo? (Just kidding!)

等等….难道不应该是Gizmo吗? (开玩笑!)

I’ve been trying to photo this sign out of the bus for a while…I actually saw them putting the sign up.

我试着在车厢外面拍了一会这个牌子…我确实看到他们把这个牌子挂在那里了.

Brugs don’t kill people, people kill people.
