The other day on the metro during rush hour, an old man reading the newspaper turned and sneezed, spraying saliva and mucus onto a young man's face, and went back to reading like nothing happened. The young man was stunned but didn't know what to do except wipe his face with his collar. FHCL

Today, after teaching in Shanghai for years and not hearing from my family in months, my parents called me. Not to say they love or miss me, but to yell at me to get a job. The one I have here isn't "real". FMCL

Last weekend, my roommate and I returned our flat back to the landlord. She wanted us to replace a sofa that had a broken spring, even though it was already broken when we got it and it was noted in the contract. She thought we made the sofa worse. We argued with her about it for over an hour. FMCL.

The other day, I was walking past a subway station sex shop on my way home from work and remembered I needed some lube for me and my girlfriend. Little did I know that the night would end with me and her rushing to the bathroom to wash off the burning sensation on our genitals. FMCL

Last week, I parked my electric bike for the first time off campus, just 3 meters away from the campus guards to get the last metro into town. The next day when I wanted to pick it up, the battery was stolen, and no one saw anything. The new battery was 800 kuai. FMCL

Today, I was taking a bus home from work. The bus stopped at a gas station and everyone got off so I followed suit. We waited 10 minutes and then got on another bus, which broke down 2 stops later. I walked to the next bus stop and got on another bus home. It took me 3 buses to get home instead of 1. FMCL
