With Shanghai host to China’s first-ever gay pride festival last week, gay rights activists celebrated 100 years of progress.
Here are a few legal milestones in the country’s progress towards full recognition of alternative lifestyles:
1949 – Xiao Chen v. United Corsets and Panties Ltd.: The court upholds the right of male homosexuals to enter into commercial agreements with lingerie manufacturers
1952 – Fan Lanhua v. City of Chongqing: A local bylaw that required all homosexuals to scream, “Stand back, the Queen is coming” when entering crowded thoroughfares public is removed
1956 – The Big Swish v. Guangzhou: A gay plaintiff won the right to be protected from offensive epithets in the titling of court cases
1962 – Wang v. Wong: Wong Lixiang was fined RMB 0.5 for damage done to the bicycle of Wang Shiyi, a gay man
1979 – Kou v. Jiangsu: Men permitted to dance together as long as they are members of the PLA
1981 – Lou v. Ling: Women permitted to holds hands in public as long as an army base is located within 50 kilometers of their place of residence and no one is looking
1997 – Shi v. Baskin-Robbins: All Chinese citizens, including gays, are legally entitled to request ask for up to two sample tastes before purchasing
2003 – House of Lost Souls v. Gu: Gay bars no longer have to be named at the suggestion of the local neighborhood committee
2008 – Li v. Li: Upheld the right of closeted gays to remain trapped in loveless marriages arranged by their parents til death do they part

I found the whole brawl to be amusing myself. And yeah, I agree, that was kinda funny. :) Maybe we could start saying “Coco being Coco.” LOL.
September 6th, 2009 at 7:00 pm
the record for who came in the absolute latest on a work day and yet still clocked in. the cheesiest excuse for missing a day of work and/or coming in late. it depends on what type of work the employees do. Are they office people or what?
September 6th, 2009 at 7:03 pm
My friend wanted to be something funny so she bought a pink feather boa, pink eyelashes, pink hair spray (washable) and wore jeans, a pink shirt, and pink sunglasses. People ask her what she was and she’d tickle them with the boa and say “tickled pink!” I loved it.

That was a very amusing game to watch on t.v. I just wish that I had tickets to that game instead of the game the day before. Oh well, it was still fin knowing that I witnessed the pre-cursers to the fight in person.

usually, it is a very small (like 100 x 100 pixel) animated gif that is sent as an attachment with appropriate (or inappropriate!) text / music to accompany. It is a MMS message, basically.

welll….. uh at the beginning of the year about 3 weeks in i had an idea to spice the school up a bit…we have approx. 1500 kids.. sooo i went to the bank the night before school one day and got out 250 in ones… i put on my facebook profile that is anyone saw me in the halls… and you YELL show me the money.. ill give u 5 dollars on the spot.. well word got around by third period soo walking through the commons…( the largest area where ppl walkthrough during class change) it got out of hand … i wud say about 75 ppl corwded around trying to get money… as i cudnt possibly hand it all out fast enough i was giving ppl 2 and 3 dollars instead of five it finally got so overwhelming i reached in my coat pocket and thre up the remaining$175 in the air…it was crazy….everyone had a blast… and i spent the next 5 days in iss for INCITING A RIOT… i think thats awsome im going to have that on my record…
September 6th, 2009 at 8:28 pm
Aha that sounds fun. I remember when me and my friends all held up a huge sign that siad “Honk if you love rainbows.” We got alot of laughs for that one.
September 6th, 2009 at 8:40 pm
that was so funny everyone just ran into the feild and started fighting.
September 6th, 2009 at 8:49 pm
Exactly. The phrase was originally coined to be a sarcastic response to something someone else thought was funny, but that fhrase was coined to let the person know it wasn’t funny. Today the phrase has lost it’s impact because in this day and time, sadly to their dismay, hell is thought to be a joke. But in due time< I guess those that think so will learn first hand what it’s original meaning intended to say.
September 6th, 2009 at 9:21 pm
The smell was probably from the oven cleaner previously used to clean the the inside of the oven. If yours isn’t a self-cleanigg oven, the cleaner is needed to dissolve the baked on food that can’t otherwise be removed. It’s nothing to be concerned about so long as it’s properly cleaned out before using the oven to prepare food. Some soapy hot water and a cloth should remove the smell of the cleaner. And remember to rinse it well with clean water afterwards.

I got in trouble for talking and clowing in class so I had to sit in front of class in front of the teachers desk. My dad worked there as a janitor at the time and he just so happened to walk in and see me sitting there. He asked me why and I had to tell the truth otherwise, I would be in even bigger trouble.
