“TEACHER CHOPS OFF FINGERS OF TECHIE HUSBAND” and “TECHIE DIED AFTER BEING FORCE-FED CYANIDE.” A long-standing journalistic adage says, “If it bleeds, it leads.” In India, if it codes, it explodes.

Maybe it is best that I am such an ambition-less over-the-hill loser. ( diaosi ? )   ;D

NOTE: Though diaosi is a seemingly humorous and playful Internet meme, it is also one that signals young netizens’ disillusionment with the apparent lack of possibilities for upward socio-economic mobility in contemporary China.

This is leading me on an interesting "tangent" ... I will start a different thread for : precariat to explore the psychology of "the loser" social phenomenon.
