A friend of mine started a new website, TheYangpa, funny stuff, here's a sample

Mr. Kim Attends Wrong Protest


Kim Min-soo, a 42 year-old employee of the Daewoo autoworkers union attended the wrong protest last Saturday. He was supposed to meet a group of fellow autoworkers at 11 am in front of Seoul Station but mistakenly he got off at Yongsan Station. He saw a group protestors chanting union slogans and he jumped right in.

"At first I thought I was at the right protest", Kim said. "They were chanting slogans against management and unfair contracts. They were the same slogans we used. How was I supposed to know it was actually a union for nightclub bouncers?" Mr. Kim finally realized he was at the wrong protest when a group of juicy girls got up on stage and danced for the crowd.

"We never have girls on stage at our protests, just a lot of middle-aged men pumping their fists in the air and screaming until they are hoarse" he said.[/url]

Sounds like a cool website to check out. Too bad Tripod is banned in China. Damn I miss living in a democratic country...
