5 個可能會激死香港人嘅問題 5 questions trying to piss off someone from Hong Kong
去到唔同地方,難免會有認識來自不同地方嘅人,然後介紹下自己,講完叫咩名後,好多時就會講自己邊度嚟,然後間唔中就會俾以下幾條問題激死!(又無咁嚴重,不過有時都要花一啲時間解釋下。)
1. 你明明係中國人,做乜唔話你係中國人?
係身份認同嘅問題。無可否認,大部分香港人都留住中國人嘅血,而香港又回歸咗中國,如果點都覺得香港就等於中國,咁我都無言以對。但,你又知唔知香港有自己嘅政府,貨幣,法律,教育制度甚至奧運代表隊,當教育同成長文化有咁大分別時,如果你仍然要將香港人同中國人對等,我心底裏會暗暗地笑你有點兒無知。
2. 香港係咪係日本?
唔知點解總係有啲人有咁嘅諗法,但其實由香港飛去東京都要4個幾鐘。
3. 你係咪識打功夫架?
可能係李小龍同成龍太深入民心,有可能係佢哋聽講韓國小朋友會學跆拳道,以為亞洲小朋友都會,咁我通常唯有陪佢哋玩下啦,話佢哋知我哋個個細細個都已經學功夫,仲問佢哋信唔信我可以一隻手指整死佢!
4. 你可以用Facebook? (另加一個驚訝嘅樣!)
無錯!事實上香港係有400萬個Facebook註冊用戶,佔上網人數75%!
5. 下!你咁揀飲擇食嘅?你哋唔係乜都食㗎咩?
係香港,我哋主要食嘅肉類都係得豬雞牛魚海鮮,唔好以為我哋真係好鍾意食珍禽異獸!
如果你仲諗到其他,請你留言分享!(:
When going abroad, sometimes we have to introduce ourselves. It’s pretty common to tell people where we come from after telling our names, and sometimes it takes me sooo much time to explain and clarify when people asked me the following questions!
1. You are Chinese, why don’t you tell people you are from China?
Identity. Undoubtedly, most of our ancestors are Chinese, and politically and officially speaking, Hong Kong returned to China. So if you insist I should tell you I am from China instead of Hong Kong, I will be kinda speechless. But, do you know that we have our own government, currency, law, education system and even our own team in the Olympic Games. When there are so much difference in education background and culture, if you insist, I may feel you are so ignorant in the bottom of my heart. And seriously, will an American-born-Chinese tell people he’s from China?
2. Is Hong Kong in Japan?
Well, I don’t know why people have this perception. In fact, it took us 4 hours to take a plane to go to Tokyo from Hong Kong.
3. Do you know how to play Kung Fu?
Maybe the impacts of Bruce Lee and Jacky Chan are too influential, or maybe some people heard that Korean kids will learn Taekwondo and thought Asians kids will do the same. So I will usually tell my foreign new friends that ‘yes, we all learn it since we were really young! Do you believe I can kill you with only one finger?’
4. You can use Facebook? (With a SHOCKING face!)
You are right! I HAVE FACEBOOK! There are actually 4 million Facebook accounts from Hong Kong, it’s 75% of all the internet users.
5. You are so picky when it comes to food, aren’t you guys eat everything?
In Hong Kong, the meat that we mainly eat are pork, beef, chicken, fish and seafood. Please don’t misunderstand that we love eating all kinds of weird animals!
If you have some other suggestions or comments, please share! (:
