Is the news that the story of the fake baozi being faked itself faked? Have we gone from fakes to fake fakes to fake fake fakes? Or did somebody slip something a little funny into my jiaozi? Why do I get the feeling that I am, in fact, living inside the bastard child of Catch 22 and Kafka’s entire oeuvre with Salvador Dali looking on approvingly?

It seems all the publicly displayed newspapers have been torn down by the neighbourhood baozi seller… nobody told him that paper baozi are too obviously fake.
