After I wasn’t able to even post anything last sunday I am now nearly 100% back in the game. Most of the technical issues have been dealt with and now I just need to play some more with the hardware of my desktop PC so everything runs smooth once again.
So what do you expect of horrors in China? No, don’t worry I am not giving you a close up about Chinese public toilets but it is nearly as bad. Okay it is actually not that bad…this video is from a few years ago. Back then I was minding my own business at my in-laws apartment and went to the living room in order to watch some TV. As you can see something scared the hell out of me when I looked up from my phone and saw what is sitting on the sofa!
This post also is my very first one with a video. From here on I plan once in a while to upload some videos, nothing special really, just what I think might be funny.
Has anything scared you like my MIL before?
Be sure to follow me also on Facebook and on Twitter as I will post there occasionally pictures which do not find their way into my blog posts. Furthermore I also have a Youtube Channel in which some videos might pop up from time to time

Loved the video! But what’s scarier in China? The sale of kidneys for cash is a common occurrence… at least according to the video I clicked after I watched yours. I guess you are pretty lucky – at least your kidney is intact. (I hope!)
Tehehehe, beauty is pain and… scary? 😛

So far it’s been only scary :p
Thanks for checking out my blog
You MIL is probably one of the quirkiest people I’ve ever met. With that mask, she looks like she is dressed up for Halloween or a costume party. She sure takes her beauty regime very seriously. I wouldn’t be surprised if she has tried recommending you, Crazy, to use any of the products. Even my relatives are no wear as quirky as her – they are just regular folk who like to sit and chat with one another. That is all.
She is just very very strange….all (okay 99%) of the beauty products she got from her daughter. So she is very happy when my wife brings her new stuff BUT as soon as my wife needs some stuff for make up or some chrome she refuses to give anything. MIL Does not share! But I will have more about it in some other post…actually I will have too much to write about again :p
I always thought, MIL would be the kind to over share, and asking others to try this and that. Interesting trait. Maybe she is a hoarder. Oh, that would actually be interesting….
Let’s see what her real personality is 🙂
Many stories to share and perhaps others will figure out what her real traits are
*LOL* that mask looks really scary! I just got a present from a Korean friend and it was a facial mask like the one your MIL is wearing, but made even scarier with dragon features. Why oh why? 🙂 Videos are fun and I also want to add more, but it takes time to upload, edit etc. so in the meantime, I’ll just enjoy what you’re uploading.
Yeah I’ve seen some interesting masks in China so far in all kind of shapes and all kind of things they should help with (I swear there was one supposed to give th wearer a double eye lid!)
There is a fake video of a woman whose face started glowing in the dark after using one of those masks. Tell your wife to look for it haha, it was shown on the 暴走大事件 tv show recently.
Wonder how MIL’s face will be with a glowing face in the dark while doing those granny dances!
To be honest, seeing your MIL has started to give me a negative reaction. I think you have programmed me 😛 Or I sympathize too deeply with your plights. In any case, I recoil with horror.
Seems like I am brainwashing my readers 🙂
Not sharing? I’m with Mabel. I thought for sure she’s overshare!
I have to say she looks great, though. Very young. You’d never know she was a grandma.
She only overshare in front of other people 😛
Actually there’s nothing weird about using the face mask. It is very popular with the females in Asia nowadays. What’s weird is how she is using it in the living room. Bloody hell, just get back to her own room!
I think she doesnt leave any opportunity out to scare the shit out of me!
That mask is weird to say the least, you MIL certainly seems like quite a character! Still her beauty regime must be paying off from what I could see she looks young for her age.
If you ask me it is not due to a beauty regime but because she is a cyborg…otherwise I have no other explanation on why she can eat triple the amount while having just half my body weight!
You bad me laughing with that! A cyborg MIL what a thought!
Sometimes it good to be able to laugh at weird situations that’s why I try to find something funny about all kind of things 🙂
Great idea, I like to look at life like this too. 🙂
Hahaha, MILs love to do stuff in the dark, which would be much less scary if they did it in a well enlightened room.
Like, using the toilet or hanging out in the kitchen for example. Everything gets less scarier of they would just turn on the light!

Somehow my in laws really love to sit in the darkness…I don’t know why and each time they scare me to death
It’s a hoot but rather scary. Have you met any of your MIL’s friends? What about the rest of the extended family? Are they like her, quirky?
Some of her friends are creepy as well, have seen some again last time in China.
The rest of the family is more or less normal but my wife’s cousin is also becoming rather…quirky…
Oh man, I swear, every time I put on one of those masks, I look like the killer from Friday the 13th!
I guess it’s best that all people wearing those mask should lock themselves up in order to not scare others :p
Congrats on your first video. That was fun. Good music. But poor MIL. She was just trying to stay beautiful. I guess she felt comfortable enough around you to reveal her beauty secrets.
It is always hard to find the right music for such videos. This particular video is actually just a small part of one of my holiday movies which i edit after each trip to China 🙂
Ok. I have hard time relating to your MIL since she is around my age.
But if it keeps her happy in a harmless way….even if it may shock family members.
I do hope she will keep it harmless. These days I double check where she is before going to the living room when I am in China, no need to get scared if it’s possible to avoid!
🙂
Your mother in law looks so young and beautiiful!
Don’t tell her! Her ego might raise even higher and won’t be controllable any longer
Well, it could be worse 😉
Wait.. does it get worse?!
Sadly it does and perhaps I will also share those videos after I prepare my readers mentally for some time :p
Haha! Can’t wait for more of your videos. Does your MIL know you are taking her video and posting up online?
She does not but I have no doubt That she has her on weibo account writing about her crazy son in law…
Hmmm… maybe you should search that out and see if there is any of your photos floating around the China net. Haha! Good post!
Hahaha, that background music just makes it funnier to see her with the mask on. Although, I’ve got to admit. I do that sometimes in my room and go out to try to scare the others on purpose, it’s fun!! 🙂
Thank you, the music is always the tricky part of a video 🙂
Well my mother in law doesnt even try to scare others, she just does it naturaly!
