so I was reading the New Yorker and read this article, The Grand Tour. The New Yorker always has great articles, but this one was really exceptional. It's basically a satire, the format really reminded me of Huckleberry Finn. It's about the new influx of Chinese tourists in Europe. It really opens the reader up to a new perspective and shows how backwards we seem to the Chinese.
Read it.
I'm not asking you to read the whole thing (its pretty long), but at least read a page or two, you won't regret it, its really a great laugh.
Woah this reminded me of an article I read from the Washington Post (I think it was). It was satirizing SAT prep and it made a reference to room 101 about rats biting your face off; I laughed my ass off :D
