obligatory downvote

No matter how funny, good, intelligent or rare a video/picture/post is, there will always be someone disliking it, and if it's only for the sake of preventing a 'perfect' voting. Also, downvotes arise from jealousy, hate or any other form of secret respect.

chinese obligation

An obligation incurred by helping someone, which requires the helper to continue helping. From the old assumption in the West that the Chinese do everything backwards and upside-down(e.g., "Chinese fire drill," "Chinese auction," etc.).

I saved a kitten from a shelter, and now I have this Chinese obligation to raise them.

White kid: Asian obligations, eh?
Azn kid: Yup.
