For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.

Translating and posting on Weibo or Sina would only get comments like, "sour grapes", "you're just jealous of China", "If you don't like it here, go home you stupid war-mongering Americans", plus a lot of other impolite Chinese expletives which wouldn't be fit for reproducing in mixed company. They can dish it out, but they can't take it.

Don't get us started about taxis, Jack, or the next thing you know, this blog will be up to 250 pages.

I will say this though. I just got off the bus from Tonghua. What is it that makes taxi drivers flock around me like a bunch of god-damned buzzards, every single freakin' one of them flapping their arms like a demented pigeon on acid and screaming, "Longjia, Longjia". at the top of their bloody lungs. Are they ALL retarded? I swear ... the only reason they are taxi drivers is because they are too smart to join the army, and too stupid to work at McDonald's.

This is turning out rather splendidly, Richard. Ok, Lang Lee, Alex, Chris, can you enlighten us of your experiences with some of our city's taxi drivers?

*who say THERE ARE no poor, disabled or gay people in China.

I don't hook up with chicks in the Mayflower because I can't level down to their stupidity so if I go is because I feel like a retard and I want to do some stupid shit while I get drunk with fake drinks and fake people I don't trust in a place that's got absolutely nothing for me.  I NEVER thought you were cool and I don't need to go to such places to pretend, undoubtedly because I'm already cool.

 Too many people live in a prison within the mind and that makes me feel lonely quite often.

I concurr!

If you just wanted to pass the IELTS exam, you don't need to make me believe I'm your best friend forever and hide your relationship with me in a coffee shop in guilin lu and 2 weeks later walk right next to me and pretend you don't know me.

Neither you need to pretend we're best friends forever when you just want to show me off with your buddies.. once. Just say you'll treat me for dinner and there will be a whole bunch of retarded superficial people who think they're no poor, disabled or gay people in China.

You also need to know that there are 196 countries in this world, not just china and "Mei guo". Teach that to your children too ! Those children who will proudly take the seat on the bus while their grandma is holding 90 bags full of shit she bought for them. 

YES! give the fucking seat to the old lady, doesn't matter if she doesn't thank you, she is still a senior citizen and therefore she deserves to kick back while she's on the bus.

Your child is a spoiled and useless scared-of-everything brat. That little boy doesn't know how gay he looks holding to her mother's hand like if he was going to die just because a one-pound Yorkshire dog is walking next to him.

Stop lying to your mother, you don't come here to study english with me, you just want to play video games in my super awesome computer.

She was ashamed of not having an iPhone so she wrote down my phone number without taking her mobile out of her pocket. Really, after trying many times I still can't do it like she did. 

Come on, say it ! you just love foreigners with money, who said it was about love? Anyway you don't need to say it, everyone around you knows that.
