Happy Conception Day!
Hey everybody, today is the day that Chinarchy was conceived.
August 8, 2009 I was sitting in my apartment and thinking about the possibility of going to China and came up with the idea for this website. It would be another 6 months before I actually ended up in Beijing and began writing (which I guess would be considered Chinarchy’s birthday).
In order to celebrate this glorious day of conception I’m giving away a $25 Amazon gift card to whoever helps me introduce the most new people to the blog. To find out more head over to http://www.chinarchy.com/helpout/.
And also, I just want to thank everybody who has been reading for the past six months. If it wasn’t for you guys I would have quit this blog a long time ago. Thank you.
Update: I figured I’d throw in some nerd proof. “Record created on 2009-08-09 21:40:06.”
China Puts The “Jew” In Juice
Since I’ve been making you wait so long for a new post, I thought this little nubbin’ might hold you over.
Enjoy. Feel free to caption in the comments.
(Also, I swear to god we will award a prize for the Ass Hair Salon Caption Contest at some point in my life.)
Caption Contest: Ass Hair Salon

I found this little gem walking home from work today. Welcome to China everybody! What the fuck are they cutting at this place? Ass hair or the hair of people who are asses?
Anyway, I figure this is as good a piece of Engrish as any to use for a caption contest.
Submit your captions for the above photo in the comments. McCoy and I will select our favorite and we’ll find some Chinese knickknack to give you as a prize.
Here are some good terrible examples to get your started:
- “Ass Hair Salon: The closest shave from top to bottom.”
- “Finally you can show them your best side.”
- “Proper grooming is important for any lady.”
Okay, okay. You can all stop groaning now and come up with some funny ones.
No purchase necessary to win. Multiple entries permitted. Contest eligibility may vary. Prizes subject to nonexistence.
