THE BOOK OF
CHINKS
OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE BOOK OF THE GREAT WALL
The Confucian way
Chapter 6
The Han dynasty was also great because it liked to do things the Confucian way,
2Which is a lot like the Chink way,
3Except fConfucius put all his wisdom into cookies so that people could digest it more easily.
4For example, he did a cookie about how Chinks should respect their ancestors,
5Even if they’re alive,
6And have a lot of funny ideas about things,
7Because maybe their ideas aren’t really funny,
8But wise,
9gSo you’d better do like they say.
10Another cookie said that the Chinks should be polite,
11And accept everything that happens,
12hBecause lots of things happen in life,
13And you may as well accept it all the way it happens,
14Because after all, you’re living in China,
15Which is pretty great,
16Considering that you might have been born in some barbarian country,
17iLike Japan.
