i'm chinese but wtf is yeet hay?

#89: you know that pronounciation of chop suey and dim sum is just the cantonese dialect and not mandarin (official language for the past few centuries).

- meat cleaver rocks.
- chicken feet is the best.
- washing your rice 2-3 times is a sanitary precaution.
- "aiya", "ta-ma-de", "gan!", "G-Y", and "wa-sey!" are all necessary parts of a macho chinese male
- electric thermos is a must if you like to drink instant coffee and tea
- fighting over the bill ensures that your friend pays for the next meal

Yeet Hay = "Hot" "Air" in Cantonese.

When your tongue is aching from eating too much spicy food, deep fried stuff, pizzas, potato chips etc......

In America, people drink beer to cure Yeet Hay. Chinese people cook some "Learn" tea, made out of dry plant/medicine, water and sugar.

ah, you mean "huo chi"?

when you get sore throat, cold sores, cancor sores, etc. in your mouth it's generally attributed to "huo chi"

i drink herbal teas and eat vitamin b2 for that.

I must say you guys have a good sense of humor about this. I was just thinking that if you made a similar list about knowing if you were Black it would be considered racist and you wouldn't see it anywhere but a KKK site.

I was just wondering why this is not considered offensive?
