COMRADE LANGUAGE: Toilet Talk
You foreigners, like us Chinese, spend a lot of time in the xishoujian (bathroom), so it's important to be armed with the proper cesuo (toilet) vocabulary while you're in a nation with 5000 years of squatting history.

ASK AYI: Teahouses Offer An Alternative Night Out
Oi Ayi, At home we all head out to the pub if we want a good laugh, but here in China everyone keeps going on about teahouses. I was even invited to see a play entitled "Teahouse." Can you please explain what all the fuss is about?
Signed, Tifa Too
