    I particularly enjoyed this extract

    ‘At one point, the participants were even able to provoke the Communist militia to arrest 77 Santa Clauses or, on another occasion, anyone wearing anything orange.’

    Green and yellow together would be suitably colourful.
    Australia says hi.

    Given the protester passion for Stars and Stripes these days, red, white and blue would seem more appropriate.

    blue happens to be my favorite color...on one hand I'm like fck it, I'll wear whatever I feel like. On the other hand I don't want people to look funny at me for wearing blue shirt on my day off. stupid I know.

    It shows it has not yet become absurd enough over here.
    When it does, the downfall is near.....

    I guess black boxer briefs could be worn over the top of other clothing, Superman style...

    I am in the US for a couple of weeks- bought black protest T shirts for the whole office from Amazon that I will be bringing back...maybe I need to bring an extra suitcase of black clothing back for protesters...

    Amazon has a lot of good designs (I got the relatively tame "hong kong" in one direction in Chinese, "add oil" when you turn it 90 degrees) but kind of pricey.

    Guess I could bring back plain black T shirts from somewhere cheap (Walmart, I'm looking at you) and get them printed in HK? Or is the printing done only in mainland these days?

    Not sure about T-shirt printings, but protesters have their own shared list of trusted local print-shops for their Mun-Suen.

    I was starting to worry about your sudden radio silence and was thinking about getting lawyers to check up on your safety! Name:  6680FCA9-07BA-415A-8ED3-E451AE62FBFE.gif
