Living for a month in any one place really lets you discover its little idiosyncracies and oddities. I present to you some of HK’s below.
The SARS epidemic hit HK's economy pretty hard, and ever since then the city has taken stringent precautions to prevent widespread illnesses.
China: one of the worst places in the world to be a vegetarian.
Mmm, bucket.
Of course, I save the best for last. G.O.D. is a Hong Kong store that sells furniture and clothes and all types of other kitschy stuff. It tries to adapt some Chinese traditions into fashion and accessories. They sell mens’ drawers in plastic containers…very anatomically accurate and detailed plastic containers.

Ahhh! I saw that underwear before too. So weird. I wanted to take a picture. A little trivia for you. Do you understand why they say “Delay No More”? Because those English words sound very similar to the Cantonese phrase “to f*** your mother”
Such a coincidence. Someone else told me this a minute before you wrote this comment. As for the underwear, a good marketing ploy? It just creeps me out.
