To be honest in most countries you will seem something that makes you laugh, whether it is someone doing something that is crazy, or something that seems just over the top. Comments please
The techno-colored dogs/ hairstyles always make me giggle.
But funniest would have to be a toss up. Once stopped to talk to this woman and little boy and asked her if this was her son. Without missing a beat, the kid looked up at me with a huge shit-eating grin and said "I'm not her son. I'm too cute to be her son"
The other was a local guy wanting to take me to a "strip show" but I only tell that story when I'm out drinking.
Its usually the Chinglish on clothing. My two favorites were a tiny little girl wearing a bright pink shirt with white lettering that said "lard". And my other favorite was a mother wheeling a baby carriage wearing a long sweater reading "niggars love blonds." Actually got a picture of that one.

I saw some regular looking middle age dude with a shirt that said "I piss myself"

Got a picture of a woman in her late 30's walking around with a glittery shirt that said "Herpes"
I hope I can add to this as I check my photos. One funny thing I saw was a shop that had had the front window broken and instead of taking out the broken pane the owner put up another frame behind the original one, not the same size, and fitted it with what was obviously a left over piece of glass so when you looked into the broken window you saw another window behind it! Doh!
A kid took a poo in the street. A few minutes later a police captain stepped in it and tried to clean it off with a napkin. Hahahahahahaaa
jairoa:
That reminded me of a little boy doing his business outside KFC... I couldn't stop giggling..
By far the babies/small children with the back door open in their pants/onesies. I laugh every time!
saw a old man pulling a cart full of rubbish along the road
he was in his finest rags a smoking something that came out of the blunt end of a water buffollo
I was thinking this could be 1920
Then I heard the Nokia tune Wei
so funny
I don't remember if this was the funniest, but it's definitely memorable. I was talking to a friend of mine, and some young guy drove by in a small truck. He looked surprised. After he had already driven by, he turned to say hello to me, without paying attention to where he was driving. He could easily have run into other students or the gate. I mean, I've had people stare at me as they drive past, but at least they pay attention to where they're going! My friend and I giggled afterwards.
It might not be the funniest, but the last time I laughed hard was on a big, flat, empty street. A guy on a bicycle, young, sober, with no obstruction around him or holes in the ground.Then out of fucking nowhere he fell down, and had that really surprised look on his face!
I laughed in his face really loud.
The places and locations that people choose to piss, take a shit, etc;
under a street lamp at night, when stepping in the shadows would be much less obvious,
in front of a door to a busy storefront as people are trying to walk in and out,
dropping thier kids pants and holding them over a trashcan when the freakin WC is only ten paces away.
Have any other guys been standing at a urinal doing thier thing when all of the sudden a female janitor appears and starts mopping at your feet?
When you get one of those trikes loaded two stories high with styrofoam and a guy riding it in traffic.
I was at Wutai Shan and saw a Monk with an iPhone which I thought was a strange paradox.
Not funny but strange. The other day I saw two guys standing unharnessed on top of an old 50mt tall brick chimney slowly knocking down the bricks with sledge hammers. They had their backs to the outer edge with their heels almost hanging over it as they swung the hammers knocking off bricks and working their way around the rim. I work in a safety related field and I wish I had my camera as this was extremely dangerous even by Chinese standards.
DaBen:
I've seen three different buildings being taken down my unharnessed guys destroying the wall under their feet. I'm actually surprised you say it's not the Chinese standard (but my experience of watching such buildings being torn down is limited to three).
TTT. I'm bringing this thread back up since there's another new one just like it.
Chinglish sign inside a hospital:
"Foreign Anal Probes: 3rd Floor"
The Chinese translated to: "Proctology Department: 3rd Floor"
