Chinese drywall causes health problems and fucks up the rest of your house.

This is a pretty big deal considering that a lot of homes have been built with imported Chinese drywall, including most of the rebuilt homes after Hurricane Katrina and Florida's recent ass-pounding hurricane season.

Fuck you, China. How about making a product that isn't going to kill us?

Lets see if India can do a better job, and move our manufacturing there, or better yet, let's send this work to Mexico to create jobs and slow down the influx into the US.

Heh.... I keep telling everyone this is just part of the plan for China to take over the world ;)

first we infuse ourselves into your society
then we persuade you to buy our products
and kill off the rest who don't agree with us.

Democracy is a bad thing why have it? kill the westerner who believe in it ;) the rest of the world will bow down to us anyways.

There was a Clive Cussler book that had basically that plot, only it was the Japanese. Their surrender and pliability were all part of the plan. That, and I think they were hiding small nukes in the AC compressors of cars.

That was Dragon, and yes, they snuck nukes into the US in the AC Compressors of cars (because who checks the AC of a car off the boat? Even if it's broken, it's cheaper to fix it in the US). Keep in mind... this was written pre-9/11, before security was jacked up, so it seemed semi-plausible at the time. This is one of my fav Cussler books, next to his Sea Hunters series.

That reminds me of an old cheezy movie where you drink this water and turn into a human bomb.

That wasn't a cheesy movie. That was a travelogue about Mexico.

It was made in the 80s-90s, but I can't remember the title. They had this neat gun tho with "smart bullets" that once it has your heat signature it can find you and can't be "tricked" with other fire source.
