“I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them. I don’t care if people hate my guts; I assume most of them do. The important question is whether they are in a position to do anything about it. My affections, being concentrated over a few people, are not spread all over Hell in a vile attempt to placate sulky, worthless shits.” - William S Burroughs
Chinese soldiers drink chicken blood as part of a ritual.
I was listening to Mike Adams, the Health Ranger. He was talking about military age Chinese men at a camp in Colombia. They bought a chicken and killed it and cooked it. They also drank its blood. ;)
