<br><br>A 104 year-old woman was being interviewed by a reporter:<br><br>&quot;And what do you think is the best thing about being 104?&quot; the reporter asked.<br><br>She simply replied, &quot;No peer(窥视）pressure&quot;. <br>

sorry but i have to correct you,davy.  &quot;peer&quot; means &quot;those who are of the same age of you&quot;, eg., your classmates.  so &quot;peer pressure&quot; means there is no one who can compete with you, and that you don&#39;t feel any pressure coming from your friends,schoolmates, etc..<br><br>but still, <!--emo&(F)--><img src='https://www.kaiyuan.info/bbs/html/emoticons/rose.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='rose.gif'><!--endemo-->

The word &quot;peer&quot; here is simply a wordplay that makes the joke. Without the Chinese notation it would have been perfect.
