This is one of those sentences that makes a lot more sense if read with a non-American accent, I suspect.
Because on first read, I read it as "...my parents took me to the local chinese [person].", rather than "...my parents took me to the local chinese [restaurant]."
Which doesn't really make a whole lot of sense.
So now I have this really awkward scenario running though my head of your parents buckling you up into their 2CV and heading to meet your town's local (and apparently only) Chinese person, all stopping the car and getting out and going,
"Well, DR, it's your 18th birthday. So here's Sally Chen."
"Hi."
"How do you do."
"..."
"She's Chinese."
"Alright."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Then you and your parents all hop back in the car and drive off to the local Showbiz Pizza.
Just got to work (3am over here)...it's all rainy and dark and my tooth hurts from gettin drilled on yesterday. Thinking today might be a good doodle day.
I would hit up that game Grenn but I am working on the air for the first three hours of work, so I can't be too distracted. maybe laters...
AOB: people are looking at me wondering why I am laughing. I like the way your brain meats work.
I spelt it with an 'o' for comedy reasons. I ain't stupid, yo. I axe you, can't y'all see the color of this skin? Now quit frontin', and other gangster cliches!
I've been in Australia since I was 4 but I'm not a citizen yet. Still a british subject. I spent the first four years of my life living above a pub in England, apparently! Explains why the smell of beer soaked carpet makes me happy and sad all at once. I think we were shipped here because I annoyed too many customers by dancing and singing on the tables. True story.
"I wasn't under the impression that cartoon art needed 'shape' or 'form'"
Fucking hold me back, AC, talk me down cause I spent a night with my iguana who managed to rip two of her nails off and almost bleed to death everywhere and I am about to go fucking internet postal.

Remember that show on PBS called "Commander Mark" or "imagination station" or whatever the fuck it was, where that doughy guy would beam down and teach kids how to draw? I wonder if those episodes are on youtube because they are one fuckawesome guide for beginning artists. Even if it is geared toward younger kids.

holy god there was this one series where he was drawing a futuristic city on the wall, and at the end of each show, he'd add a little bit to the city.

(Also, it wasn't until I was going to sleep that I realised I hadn't drunk a single drop.)
I am addicted to this online game: http://weewar.com/ where it's all turn based and you move your little mens and tankies and what not.
If anyone plays, or wants to play, my username is Grenn. It's fun and I can play it at work! 8-)

Bad DR! No Americanisms! You're Australian, act like one.
I didn't want to confuse the Bacon. (Also, I'm actually british :P)
So what did you do to get imprisoned in Australia?
See, this would be a great birthday gift for me.
My whole world view has been shattered.
Who will I believe in now?

He stole a starving family to feed his loaf of bread.

It was so fantastic.
But, yeah, this guy is geared toward a younger crowd, but dispenses some invaluable advice for budding artists.
