熱臉碰著冷屁股

Learned a new term today.  When you truly mean well, but whatever is done or said simply backfires and thrown back in your face. I grew up using 好心着雷劈.  But it turns out in Mandarin Chinese... it's 熱臉碰著冷屁股.  Couldn't help but chuckle.. more like a snicker.  Chuckle contains some sort of humor.  There was no humor today. Snickering at the man in the mirror, like "Silly boy...why even bother??"  To which the man in the mirror can only respond with, "I give up."

Mood: chilling... (from the frozen buttocks in my face).
