In the city of Wu hu , China… wait a minute.
Wu hu China…WTF is woo hoo China?
Wu hu implies a sort of levity or fun and this is China so first off any town which phonetically resembles any word that sounds interesting or fun should be banished.
I mean, wtf is a wu hu, is it like You hooooooooo?
The funny thing is that in the hardscrabble life of Chinese characters cum caveman scratches, there are only like 125,000 choices, so they are severely limited in word usage. Thus, they are stuck with words like Wuhu, which I am sure means something like ‘forbidden spring’ or some other bullshit.
Aside from this, they have a fanaticism for X’s and Z’s and foul them all up. X is sh and Z is like J and no matter what, by the time words come across their indian corn yellow teeth and garlic breath invades your nostrils, you have all but forgotten what the heck the question was to begin with, but back to Wu hu.
In my minds eye, Wu hu is a toxic little dump that at one time was picturesque but not any more. The livelihood of the locals, who stumble about in gray mao suits and every clan of a bakers dozen, share betwixt themselves only a triad of teeth, is to pick through refuse of some foreign country.
where, for each day and millionth of an ounce of something like cadmium or copper that they find, they are compensated an amount equal to a days wages in London in the 1800’s.
Health care is not even a word in the little hamlet for all of those with enough intelligence to figure out how to ‘get on that train thing’ have long since gone.
The local stores are filled with knock off products from floor to ceiling and a monthly bath is not even a notion the can fathom.
The mandatory communist leader of Woooo Hooo, has taken a dozen second wives, even though his man tool is down for the count.
Aside from digging through filth, the locals while away their time thinking of a simpler time. By nightfall they huddle in charred face masses, recounting the good ol days when all it took was to call your mom or dad a capitalist pig and you were the star of the hutong.
But now times are tough. selling off a kid or two will be a few months of gruel, but having kids sucks, after all, just take a look at these folks.
Misery, being what it is, has drawn these people to drink, but , unbeknownst to them, the mao tai they imbibe is nothing more than rubbing alcohol with a healthy dose of tainted water.
HIp HIp hooray for Wooo HOOOO
