A teenage girl from the Zhejiang province in China had more than 100 bubble tea balls trapped in her stomach after drinking far too many cups of her favorite drink. She allegedly admitted she drank one cup of the tea before she was hospitalized, but the photo clearly shows that she probably drank a few gallons of the tea concoction.

The 14-year-old was dashed to hospital after suffering constipation. Scans found the patient had failed to digest the tiny dark balls, which are a crucial ingredient in bubble tea. Dr. Zhang Louwei, who treated the patient, said her abdomen was “bulging”.Her stomach, intestines, and rectum had been saturated with the tapioca balls. 

The beverage, popular in East Asia, but also in Europe, normally contains tea, milk and dozens of the small balls, known as “pearls” or “boba”. They are extracted from the dried roots of the cassava plant native to South America, and usually taste bland and have a chewy texture.

A Chinese woman who attempted to eat a live octopus found herself in an awkward situation when it defended itself using its sticky tentacles. The popular blogger and live streamer, who is known as ‘seaside girl Little Seven’, streamed the video of the incident online and it did not take long for the clip to go viral.

In the 50-second viral video, the blogger can be seen holding an octopus while trying to eat it alive. However, in an attempt to protect itself, the sea creature sticks its tentacles around her face. The blogger screams out in pain as she tries to free herself.

According to a Daily Mail report, the blogger can be heard screaming “painful” and “I can’t remove it” in the viral clip as she tries to get rid of the octopus stuck to her face. Finally, it gives in but not before leaving a bloody mark on her face. At the end of the clip, she cried ‘I’ll eat it in the next video’ after being wounded.

In the next video you die, seaside girl Little Seven!

How slutty are you feeling today?

It was supposed to go only one way.

This is not a joke, although it does sound like the plot of a silly romantic comedy. A woman from the city Xiamen recently woke up to find that she couldn’t hear any male voices, including that of her boyfriend, while still being able to hear female voices.

The woman, identified only as Chen, had ringing in her ears as well as nausea the night before. But things only got worse the following morning when she couldn’t hear her boyfriend’s voice. She was then rushed to a local hospital and it was found that she could hear the voice of her female specialist, Dr. Lin Xiaoqing, but still couldn’t hear other male voices. “She was able to hear me when I spoke to her, but when a young male patient walked in, she couldn’t hear him at all,” the doctor said.

The doctor soon diagnosed Chen with reverse-slope hearing loss, an extremely rare condition in which patients become unable to hear low-frequency sounds (like those of deeper male voices) while retaining the ability to hear higher-frequency sounds (like those of female voices). While high-frequency hearing loss is much more common in humans, with one in approximately 12,000-13,000 hearing loss sufferers the opposite happens.


Men wearing earrings?! Scandalous! At least it was scandalous in the ’80s. Today it is just a poor fashion choice that many men make, but Chinese censors think that it is an offense serious enough to be blurred on TV. CNN reports:

It’s unclear if Chinese regulators have issued a specific directive barring men from being shown wearing earrings, or whether TV stations are reacting to a shift in what is considered culturally appropriate. Last year, China’s media regulator banned TV stations from featuring actors with tattoos. Depictions of “hip hop culture, sub-culture and immoral culture,” were also banned according to Chinese state media…

When it comes to television, the country’s regulations previously barred programs from airing content that expresses “overt admiration for Western lifestyles,” jokes about Chinese traditions or defiles “classic materials…”

The country’s censors have also been quick to black out content on LGBT issues. Guidelines released in China in 2016 characterized homosexuality as an “abnormal sexual behavior” unfit for Chinese television, alongside incest, sexual abuse and “perversion.
