@China_Daily does not follow @beijingcream, but it does follow @Sexy_Cute_Olivi. What makes Miss Olivia so sexy? Is it her hair? Is it her blondness?

Stephen Colbert, on Chen Guangcheng (who he calls "Eric"): "Apparently losing your sight doesn't just make your ears better, it makes your balls bigger."
You may remember Li Yingzhi as the model who wore a diamond dress at this year's Beijing International Automotive show (aka Auto China) worth 100 million yuan. (Here are several pictures of her via Ministry of Tofu.) Last week, a video surfaced of Ms. Li, accompanied by some serious softcore porn music. Behind all that makeup and those diamonds, there's a human being somewhere. A human being bedecked in diamonds.
Apparently this dog, Li Li, is a local celebrity in Nanning, Guangxi province. Dubbed "bike hugging dog" (according to YouTube video description), it patiently waits for its owner to get done with his errands, then hops onto the back of the bike, barks to signal it's ready, and somehow maintains his balance as the biped pedals away.
We liked the build-up in this video written by The Blockton Brothers and directed by Matt Peccini, but just wish the punchline could've been rehearsed a few more times, preferably not in an indecipherable dialect of Chinese. Contrast with the Honda commercial: now there's a foreigner who studied at a Mandarin school.
There are many things I love about China. But the thing I really, really hate is that they occasionally make me stand up for things I can’t stand. Like the French.
Normally, I would just make fun of the French and their chocolate-bread-eating ways, but in the face of such madness from the Global Times, just call me TAR de’Gaulle.
Youku video for those in China after the jump. Remember our post a few days back, “99 Ways to Heaven… on the Highway to Hell,” about a certain stretch of road in Zhangjiajie, Hunan that may be the most dangerous in the world? Well, Jokke Sommer, a BASE jumping and wingsuit expert, decided to take... Read more »
