#1 Post at 1-12-2014 09:12  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L What's with the over-reaction to rain? I've been living in HK forever and know almost all that I ever wanted to know about the place, and then some more. A few odd things still puzzle me, including the over-reaction to the rain.  On my way to the office this morning, there were a few isolated drops of rain.  I got hit by about three drops actually.  I saw one woman walking next to me cringing, with her hand protectively above her head.  I saw another woman cringing intensely. Another one had her umbrella out (really, you get more wet from the dripping aircons or the sweat in summer).   Their reaction was not as if the rain drops were water, but more like arsenic or hydrochloric acid.   Anyone knows what's with the over-reaction to the rain?  I don't recall that it's as bad in other parts of China, Taiwan or Japan, but perhaps I just don't remember clearly and it's just as bad over there.

Mostly from what I know is they worry it will make you sick. Cold water hitting your head etx. 'Yes, Madam, I am drunk, but in the morning I shall be sober and you will still be ugly.'

The fear of touching the doors etc. I wonder why they don't have automatic doors like in Japan.
