These
people are the
only reason I'm
still alive.
"Gubo" Wang is my
ex-granduncle-in-law.
He is the poster child of
Asperger's Syndrome,
and the phrase, "mad
genius." He was insanely
rich back in the days when
wealth mattered at all.
My half-sister's mother, Adelina, will forever remain
a hot mess. Great teacher of medicine. Slut.
Chinese-Canadian Wang Guanyabo nickname is a rather sarcastic one due to his inability and disinterest to fit into Chinese society, and specifically the Han majority. It is based on a name coined for use in an old language education textbook.
"Gubo (古波; gŭbō): Young male student, non-Chinese. The name's transliteration is uncertain, but Cooper or Gilbert has been suggested. According to one of the authors of the original (Practical Chinese Reader), there was no corresponding name, he simply coined the name because it sounded foreign."
