In the spirit of the lovely trend of "Shit girls say…" or "Shit people say…" and seeing that my "Sh*t Hong Kong People Say to White Guys" and "Sh*t People Say to PhD Students" were able to get a few positive responses, I sat down to quickly write down some of the sh*t people usually say to me about this blog and blogging.
It’s a very long list, but I guess these are some of the reoccurring highlights. Got more? Add a comment below!
