its extremely safe. About 2-3 million passengers take the train every year in china, the fatalities from rail accidents is less than 100 in the last 10 years. Thats less than a 0.0005% fatality rate.

>>13037799
at least they are building future proof public infrastructure instead of relying on oil. Electric trains can get energy from clean sources like hydro-dams--and incidentally the world's biggest is in China. (Three Gorges Dam).

They have built more railway in the past decade than USA has done in the last 100 years. Much more when you include contracted work in other countries. Regardless of how anyone feels about China, taken as a whole their rail project is one of the most massive engineering feats ever done by humanity. Even compared to Europe, USA has fallen very far behind.

Even the dumbest retard downie doesn't need dedicated commercials telling them not to sleep in the middle of a road. Even the filthiest drunkard piece of shit addiction riddled failure knows to crawl to the sidewalk and sleep there instead.

There's a conveyor sushi place right outside of work. How good/bad is sushi on a cut? I know it's alot of carbs but humor me, here. I'm genuinely curious on your opinions because everyone I talk to about this has either thinks sushi is magically 0 calories because it has fish or goes full ketard and thinks your dick will explode if you consume rice. How bad is a california roll, or even a spicy one?

I’m going to open up an Amerilard conveyor belt restaurant for hipsters:

>Hot dogs rolled in Cheeto dust
>BBQ Brisket with coolwhip
>Deep fried tootsie rolls
>Pecan pie hamburgers
>Ice cream and ketchup

Anything I am missing?

Americans would never put the plates back on the conveyor belt. That's the waiter's job.

The napkins need to be bacon slices. The cutlery, bacon cutlery. Plates? Bacon. Drinks? Bacon flavoured.

I can already see huge fights over plates.
You put out something that is everyone's favourite and five tables immediate come to blows as the first table dares take the plate that everyone wanted.

Americans panic unless all the food is brought out at once. Fatfuckitis causes them to have an overwhelming fear of having a last bite and not immediately being able to take another before they can catch their breath
