That must be one incredible basement!

They don't have to pay for it and in a rapidly aging country with a very low birth rate they may not have enough people of military age to put together an army at this point.

Taiwan, the island occupied by Japan during the war then the nationalists ran off to it and declared themselves independent because Mao didn't have a navy? Imagine if the republicans ran off to Hawaii and declared independence then China formed a military alliance with them.

Unfunny, she asked if I was dating her because she had blonde hair. Well duh, yah part of dating is that you are physically attracted to that person but her accusing me of being that shallow guaranteed I wouldn't go out with her again. "You are a judgemental shit."
