《扒马褂》

《扒马褂》 is the Chinese crosstalk comparison used in 157.吹牛大王历险记:叔本华、扒马褂和超级英雄 to show that [[AdventuresOfBaronMunchausen|《吹牛大王历险记》]] belongs to a broader Tall-Tale Tradition. The episode cites comic impossibilities such as a well blown through a wall, a mule drowning in a tea bowl, and a roast duck flying into a teahouse as structurally close to Munchausen stories.

Its role in the wiki is comparative: it makes the episode’s cross-cultural claim concrete. Tall tales are not just European fantasy; they can appear in Chinese oral performance as social comedy where exaggeration, face-saving, and improvised explanation become part of the joke.
