我今天元旦的时候也去了九华山,那个时候在下雪,风景真的非常漂亮. 但是那里好像台阶特别多,我们爬了好久... 值得去看看.

帅哥 and 美女 were originally used to describe nice-looking people. But nowadays, like cinnamonfern said, it's more like nice friendly terms to address young people, which are less formal than 先生 and 小姐. It's quite commonly used to address most kinds of 服务员 in service industry. Besides that, if you're called 帅哥 or 美女, people are usually just being nice, no matter if they know your name or not.

I think you are talking about 上吐下泻(shàngtùxiàxiè). It sounds like what happens when you have serious food poisoning. Hope it didn't happen on you.

Haha, you're right, xiaoma. We were going to say it in the podcast but we thought that would be pointed out in the comments. That name makes it sound like "别摸我,我很贵".

《人在囧途》,是一部喜剧片。电影里讲一个挤奶工和一个大老板在过年回家路上遇到的事情。挺好玩的。
