This hippy freak dude I know living on a commune told me once he offered a chance to get into a concert for free if he wore a t-shirt that they told him was a Chinese character for security. When the concert was over an old Asian dude walked up to him and told him the shirt meant "Lazy Man".  :o

It's like Chinese ideogram ignorant wisdom. Each ideogram can mean any of 80 different things depending on the context and inflections you read it in. My name, Wu Li, means among other things "I clutch my ideas". Those crazy Asians with their warped sense of humor hang them on the walls like no smoking signs everywhere. They're all paradoxical jokes you can interpret how you like including some of them basically humorously warning and reminding idiots to leave their personal bullshit off the premises and chill out dudes.  ;D

Right now I'm watching a Korean comedy called "Once Upon a Time" that has the best vaudeville comedy I've seen in years.
