Also known as "CFS," Chabot-Fagnant Syndrome is a condition found among many in the Catholic social justice community that is usually distinguished by the following symptoms:
1). An infatuation with Jesuits that borders on eroticism
2). Runny discharge from the mouth in the form of incessant blather about Liberation Theology
3). The irrational desire to treat each day like a Catholic high school retreat.
4). Regularly accusing anyone nearby that they "don't understand" the world's problems and that they are even part of those problems while ignoring their own possible complicity.
5). Regularly inserting unnecessary foreign words (usually Spanish) and phrases into everyday speech and insisting on over-pronouncing said words and phrases.
6). Extreme self-importance.
CFS is often caused by over-attending spiritual retreats, going abroad to developing nations on social justice tourism trips, full-immersion volunteering, or taking too many Liberation Theology classes. The condition may only last for a few days or weeks as an accompaniment to a "retreat high" or several years, clearing up only when the "infected" graduates or departs from the area of incubation. Chronic cases been known to persist longer but such episodes are rare and suggest that the afflicted possess some sort of innate pre-disposition to the condition.

"She used to be pretty cool, but ever since she came back from that service trip to the Dominican Republic she's done nothing but cry and yell at people. She's got a serious case of Chabot-Fagnant Syndrome."

Get the fregnant mug.The most popular theory is that Hong Kong （香港） used to produce incense.
Hong Kong used to be a place to produce incense and it's a harbour. (Harbour with "u" as it was a British colony till 1997)
Fragrant Harbour is the direct translation of the name "Hong Kong".
Hong = Aromatic=香; Kong = Harbour =港
The bay from which incense was transported became known as Hong Kong, so a nearby village took the name of Hong Kong Village. The name Hong Kong first appeared in the Yue Da Ji, which was printed in the Ming Dynasty. When the British arrived at Stanley, Chen Qun, a local Hakka (we'll learn about Hakkas later) told them in Hong Kong Village that the place was called Hong Kong (which is Tanka dialect for Xianggang). The British assumed that Hong Kong referred to the whole island, and the name stuck.
