Inside, I pull China's punk card!

The Dalai Lama, who's been in living in exile since 1965, was awarded with the Congressional Medal of Honor on Wednesday. This has upset the People's Republic of China because they think the Dalai Lama, because they think he's a poo-poo face swimming around in Satan's toilet. Or that's what they would think if the government weren't officially atheist.

They made a semi-threat to these United States that basically came off like this, "If you're going to be her friend, then you can't come to my birthday party!" before slamming her locker door and storming away. Yes, in this example, the US, China, and the Dalai Lama are all superficial teenage girls. Or at least China is.

I know why China's so upset with the Dalai Lama. It's a stupid reason, but at least they have one. But to get mad at our government for being cool with him is a little retarded. He didn't kill anyone and didn't steal anything. Why are you so mad? And really, China...what are you gonna do about it?

What's the worst that you can do? Take back your poisonous toys and dog food? Stop flooding our dollar stores with bootleg merchandise? Are you gonna threaten to not share your bird flu with us? What, are you gonna ban us from the Olympics next year? Listen up, China...the Olympic Committee will ban you in your own country before they allow that to happen. You know how much money our country provides in ad revenue alone?

China, when you want to send veiled threats to another country, make sure that the country in question will actually care if you carry them out. This one won't. Maybe that strongarm tactic will work on North Korea or one of them loser countries that's dying to be paid attention to, but what's the worst that could happen? You're not gonna go to war over this, and it's stupid to think that making a mean face will make another country change it's internal policy decisions. So just shut up.
