What's with Mainlanders and their long pinky fingernails?

I've seen this a couple times over the years. Some Mainlander guys have long pinky fingernails but the other nails are normal.

to some people, it's a superstitious thing.
if the pinky is not longer than the 3rd joint of the ring finger, it's consider bad luck, thus they grow out their finger nails to "compensate" the length.

Doesn't mean there not laborers and have money? If they worked in a factory or in the fields it would break?

Coke nail it's called. Saves the trouble of cutting rails. Dunk nail in bag, sniff from nail, grate teeth. The longer the nail is, the more hardcore you are.

I've seen many Vietnamese with it, and Mainlanders, but no HKers from what I have noticed. I do notice HK people picking their nose every day (they usually roll their boogers up with their palms, and flick it on the ground. Only once have I seen someone eat their boogers), but they don't have the pinky fingernails going.

unless they shut down all the factories in the GZ area, it will never get better

I find it funny Chinese people spend millions to buy a habour view apartment, but they don't realize you can't see anything across the habour 364/365 days...lol
