England Vs China: Round 3: Teenagers.

The streets of England are ruled by fear of teenage hooligans. They lurk on street corners awaiting their next victim. They hurl random insults at everyone and everything and give physical abuse either to those who respond or those who don’t. Despite this, it is still often frowned upon for any adult to strike back, after all, they’re only kids. They go unchecked, undisciplined, unpunished and they make England’s future look cloudy to say the least.

The Chinese in this respect have evolved far beyond their English counterparts. There are no teenagers in China. There are little children, there are adults, there is little or no sign of anything in between. Logic suggests this cannot be the case, but it is clearly what the evidence suggests.

Apparently, so the legend goes, the group of Chinese known as Teenage lurk in the shadows of school grounds during the day and seek the shelter of home where they can study during the night. There may also be small underground hideaways in which they group together, but these have never been found. Indeed, no one has ever seen one of these “Teenage”, it’s always “a friend of a friend” who has seen one.

In comparison, there can be only one winner.

England 1 – 2 China.
