Fringe Lingo Magnets

By Morgan Short, Apr 21st, 2009 | In Community

You know those fridge magnet poetry sets? You arrange words in order on your fridge to spell out funny sentences or poems?

Over at iwantone.cn, they're selling sets of fridge magnets that help you learn Chinese. The first set is "Taking to Your Ayi" and features some common words that you can stick on your fridge to practice.
Very clever. Very clever. I wish I though of that. Anyways, these Fridge Lingo sets would make great gifts for your friends learning Chinese (88rmb, order online at their site).

Also, I can't help but think how amusing it would be to spell out "You're Fired" in fridge magnets as a method to terminate your ayi's employ.

Yeah, I know I'm a bastard. I've come to terms with it...
