摘要

Ever the food-oriented society, tra-ditional Chinese compliments of yore include gems like "ni pang le" (literally, "you've fattened up"), indi-cating you've been eating a lot, and that life's been treating you pretty well. Fast forward to 2022, and the above remark now pretty much implies you've been stuffing your face; addressing any (fe)male with these words is likely to in-spire a crash diet. Or two.
