Chinese Auction

[09:55] Brownman: one dept over heresy work had a “chinese auction”. because, traditionally, that’s what it’s called. but HR made the dept rename it

[09:55] Fifi: LOL what?

[09:55] Brownman: so it was just called “awesome auction”. from wikipedia:

“A Chinese auction is a combination of a raffle and an auction that is typically featured at charity, church festival and numerous other events. Can also be known as penny social, tricky tray or pick-a-prize according to local custom, or to avoid any reference to nationality.”

[09:58] Brownman: man, you white ppl cant say anything these days. i wonder if u’d catch slack for calling me an “indian giver”. call me one so i can sue

[09:59] Fifi: lol no

[09:59] Brownman: well then you just tell “white lies”. oh wait…”White lies”….gotta CAP the “W”
