I used to live in China and Ali-everything was a fact of life. Do not buy anything that plugs in. Also, don't buy kittens from Taobao, it never ends well.

Spoilered for animal cruelty:

Oh, god, the stupid kids would buy hideously inbred kittens from some revolting warehouse and have them delivered like a package. They always arrived sick with parvo or something and died from poor care/illness/neglect/being dyed purple within two weeks. Buckets of tears, then ten minutes on Taobao with Daddy's money and another one was on its way.

They always got those smushed-face guys, too.

Looks like I might try toiletry bags. They're 1-2 bucks a pop for a hundred or so on Alibaba. On express they're a bit pricey for bulk. And really backpacks might not serve a great purpose. I don't want to hand someone something they can't actually use.

That's a great idea. Get ones that look like they might be kinda waterproof and can be zipped up or sealed.

I think they meant it, like, ask some homeless people what they would want because maybe there are things you don't know about their lives that make certain unexpected things luxuries.

Which is nice and cool!

I’m visualizing a subscription service with the same purpose as ruindays.com except instead of poop or glitter it’s just an endless supply of Chinese sex toys and fuckpillows arriving to the victim’s office completely without explanation.

One time, Grand Fromage and I were on a walk in China when we ran across a random sex toy vedatorium in this equally random residential neighborhood in Chengdu. One of the toys was called The Mystery rear end and it looked like chicken cutlets. Welp, that's my story, China is unusual.

All you ear wax freaks should get one of these instead. The bulb(?) base on the Ototek prevents you from sticking it too far into your ear like the stick things on AE. A college friend who was Asian American did clean my ears with a scoop once but I don't think anyone should be doing that to themselves blindly.

Anyone got shops for cute women's undies that are washable for daily wear? I thought the ribbon tie ones going around a while back were just adorable, but I'm looking for something for daily use yet relatively sexy. I've been buying Vanity Fair on Amazon, but they aren't too flattering.

Unless you want nothing but polyester, and the ensuing crotch stank and disease that comes with sweating in polyester panties that don't breathe, I'd buy underwear from a real shop.


e: There's nothing wrong with picking up a table that someone's thrown out, if it's clean and in good condition. Recycling helps the planet, duh?

In China, they sometimes sell "unclaimed" package contents on the street, so Italy is just playing along.

Spain seems to get most of my Wish/Ali items to me well enough, but roughly one out of every four doesn't make it.

Oddly enough, these are the only Japanese words most anime fans know.

I'm thinking of adding KC Green's Cool Frog (sans dolphin) on a skateboard and calling the whole thing "The Drive-by Amphibians"

Feel free to give your opinions and also how do you use a gang tag anyway?

I think (based on my losing my Zaurg/AFP ones and people being like "it's just a link!) I think it's an image link in one's avatar text?

I've had mixed luck with Ali shirts. Some are that lovely, unbreathable plastic, some are made of a cheap fabric that pills really easily, and some are really nice quality. I think it's just a gamble.

Hug in a Can posted:

There are a few signs, like customer pictures and reviews (you can often at least tell from the pictures if it's plastic) or the advertised fabric.

If it's "chiffon" or 100% polyester, it's probably the unbreathable material, especially if it's a print.
Elastane or spandex with a polyester blend tends to be swimsuit feeling material.

Look for polycotton blends, rayon blends (tends to pill), and cotton. They may be using a blend different from the one advertised, but it will at least be close - and wearable!

All true- seconding that you should always look at ALL the pictures, especially ones ostensibly posted by customers- but 9/10 times, they're gonna lie in the ad, anyways. I've bought many a "cotton" item that was actually a plastic bag. Ymmv, though.
