Well, and we'd have to start lessons... Like with Ocean.
We should have a thread that teaches Chinese. xD

Haha. Ringtones. As if.
Well, you'll get used to it. You can't speak Chinese without it.

Like... take "ma" for example.
It could mean "mother," "hemp," "horse," or "to admonish."

Then they'd get the horrible disease and cause a pandemic! After about half of the world's population dies, we'll blow ourselves up because we don't want to catch it...
