    I even showed a video of the thing to my friend's mum (who is also uygher) and she literally laughed and said I go on the internet too much.

      if even the Uyghur aunties can own crackers like this, imagine the horrors the real posters locked behind the great firewall could unleash

        This is really amusing to me because in Chinese culture one very common cultural archetype of an auntie (read: any middle or late middle aged woman) is a woman with a razor sharp tongue, no filter, and who will home in on your tiniest insecurity and criticize you for it.

        I wonder if they have the same thing in Uyghur culture.
