Say you’re taking a nice afternoon run. You’re on the home stretch, and you’re trying to kick out the last of the run. Then all of a sudden you look back and there’s a dog weighing perhaps 75 pounds running at you and barking. You had just seen the owner go into their house to put something away and nobody was around.
What would you do?
- Try to outrun it
- Squat down and receive it with arms open wide, all the while oohing and ahhing at the cuteness of it all
- Yell like a madman for help
- Cover your crotch with one hand and hope for the best
- Cry like a baby
- Play with it
- Fight it
Yeah I can’t even think of any other possibilities. Tell me what you’d do, guess what I did, and then check out the next page for a fun picture.

Sometimes Chinese people do good things. Sometimes Chinese people do bad things. And sometimes Chinese people sure do some stupid things.
Get this: Chinese people copied Disneyland. As in, they made a Disneyland park. Are you kidding me?!
I read an Engadget article about the fake Disneyland that got me to searching for more information. Amusingly, they have characters that closely mimic the Disney ones as well as rides that indicate how much of a fake it is. Their slogan (according to this other article) is that “Disneyland is too far.” Wow, that is unbelievable. I think that actually the most amusing thing about Beijing’s Shijingshan Amusement Park is that its website is http://www.bs-amusement-park.com. Haha you read that right, it’s the BS amusement park.
Although pretty humorous, this actually touches on a more serious issue (which was touched on at Even Worse Than At First Glance). And that issue is copyright infringement (or in this case complete disregard for copyrights whatsoever).

The Standard (Chinese business newspaper) article - Touches the most on the significant copyright issues
Engadget article - Amusing pictures
Roller Coaster Database - Park information, list of rides, etc
Actual Disneyland-clone website - I don’t know Chinese (the language), but if you do then the story might get even more amusing for you

I saw this post on Engadget, and I thought it suitably disturbing to write a post about it.
Check out the original article that Engadget is just reposting over here at Instructables.com (which is a super site with lots of things for those of the DIY variety). There is an instruction video that will let you perform the same modification. However, I think that more people will just be interested in seeing what I’m talking about. So without further ado, here are some pictures!
A glimpse of the parts beforehand. That’s nasty.
Here is the finished product after inserting the (computer) mouse into the (real) mouse. Oh yum.
And here it is being used by someone’s hand. Who knows who that is. All I know is that I don’t want that to be my hand. And I don’t want to shake their hand either.
So there have some of the interesting pictures that I saw over at Instructables. That is disgusting, but I think that is still fairly cool. Why is that cool? Well just imagine how much more disgusted everyone else would be if they saw you use it. I could see how this could be the source of many many practical jokes. Find it gross, find it humorous, or find it useful. Whatever the case, it has to evoke some feelings in you.

Do you like car salesmen? I don’t.
They’re pushy, they’re slightly overbearing, and they only want to be your friends to make money off of you.
Case in point:

People are ridiculous. It’s amazing. I don’t even need to cut this entry short because I am speechless at such an act. Imagine yourself out eating dinner at a nice place. Then a man runs in. And then that man proceeds to storm a kitchen, grab a knife, and cut himself. Even more shockingly, he cuts off his own penis. Are you kidding me?!
If you’d like, you can read the original article. Seen on Digg.
