yes, it is indeed interesting (and aggravating) to see westerners think that cantonese and mandarin are at the same lvl when in fact they are not. they treat cantonese like a complete different language from mandarin (just like french and english) even though in reality cantonese is nothing more than a regional dialect (much like the southern Texas accent).
anyone have any piggy jokes?

That's not how my Cantonese-speaking friend explained it to me. Don't blame "westerners" for being told two different stories.

Thanks for the comments
@Key-J: You're right! I really can't eat it. It's so cute!
@CrimsonKnight: Well the problem is that the body is kinda heavy, so I don't think it'd ever be able to stand up lol. Let's say it's laying down and you can't see its legs, hee hee!

I love steamed red bean buns. I don't know if those are a type of bapao or some other bun. But I love them anyway.

In two hours and 42 mins, I'll will have "Giao Thua" when the clock strikes midnight. I don't know what's the equivalent term in Chinese.
But yeah, us Asian Americans get it last.
Sweet souce!!!
