-A running joke on the board is that absolutely everything was invented in China first - not just the usually stated gunpowder, printing, movable type etc., but also exaggeration, censorship, [[United States of America#America]], imagination and, notably, [[bears]] (a fact deduced by [[Dave Howery]]).
