You think you know traffic jams? You have no idea what one is until you’ve experienced China’s infamous traffic jams. The country has some epic gridlock problems, but this cool elevated bus might help if they go ahead with their plans for it.
You thought it was just science fiction. Oh, another Dalek. The Doctor can handle it and it will all be over in an hour. Wrong! It looks like the first Dalek prototype is upon us in the real world.
Ever since watching Stephen King’s Maximum Overdrive and seeing murderous construction equipment trying to kill people, I’ve got a healthy fear of big construction equipment.

We have known for a while that the Xbox One game console was going to go on sale in China. It is the very first of the next generation consoles to go on sale in the country.
Why is it that the McDonald’s here in the U.S. don’t get any of the cool, and weird foods that the chain gets in other countries? Here in the U.S. we also don’t get cool restaurant makeovers, all we get are the playgrounds taken out.
China, you keep raising creepy food to whole new levels. Whether you find these pears creepy or not probably says a lot about you. These pears are shaped like babies. They grow on the tree this way, but not naturally.
Leave it to China to be all weird and objectify their peaches. It isn’t totally unexpected though. Peaches do look like tiny backsides. At least if you squint. And now fruit vendors in China are taking advantage of the peaches’ butt shape, making them all weird and alluring.
