月鹿：

Then the late-Qing arrived and the pride that was once China’s vanished and became taking pride in having foreign things.

泡泡燕窝：

More and more lost as it is handed down. These days, I have such respect and admiration for the all the nice things preserved in the tombs of ancient people. What nice things can people today leave behind for future generations?

无事不登三宝殿大师：

The ancients were really amazing, especially the last one. Although of course, all of these things must’ve been invented by Koreans.

2b小马夹：

Wow, Wang Mang really did time travel…fuck… [Wang Mang was an usurper during the Tang Dynasty known for progressive reforms].

弑神哥在：

Fuck, Qin Dynasty plumbing looks better than today’s.

张七公子HBU:

The story goes the Prince Liu Sheng had over 100 children. With so many wives, having that [dildo] is quite normal [expected].

木子海波：

Why is it double-ended? For two wives to use at the same time?

麦唛二世：

So does this prove that each generation is worse than the one before it, that our ancestors were far superior to us?

SuperZ：

My god, if you let the Koreans see this, then it’ll all become Korea’s [inventions].

EX-MORISEIKI:

Suddenly I feel people must have traveled back in time and changed history.
