Well, I must waddle along now, gotta hold an 'informal' inquisition in order to convince some of my serfs to cough up the mental case that 'mistakenly' called me 'Fat'. Did you know that because of my starving countries non existent crime rate we actually have no need for 'prisons' here? And if someone Does mistakenly commit a 'crime', for example, calling me 'fat', or even simply being an un-favorite Uncle, they would simply be enrolled in a 'change my mind' class at our local Landmine Emprovement Center where, I am told, they Really have a 'blast'.
However, to prevent my serfs from actually Making that 'fat' mistake in the first place, I hereby order, by the power invested upon me by myself, the greatest and most 'benevolent' dictator still alive, proclaim that for here and ever after it will be a ' landmine crime' for Anyone to stupidly utter the words, 'Fatty Kim The Tur*, er, I mean the Third'! I am not fat, I am not fat, I am...... .' ;);)

The name in question: "Kim Fatty the Third."
The Associated Press reports:
Reuters, which ran a similar search for the nickname, reports that a spokesman for China's Foreign Ministry denied that the government had banned the search term while also saying China "does not approve of insulting or ridiculing language to address any country's leader.""Searches for the Chinese words 'Jin San Pang' on the search engine Baidu and microblogging platform Weibo returned no results this week.
"The nickname pokes fun at Kim's girth and his status as the third generation of the Kim family to rule the world's only hereditary communist dynasty. It's especially popular among young, irreverent Chinese who tend to look down on their country's would-be ally. ...
" 'Kim Fatty the Third' is such a widely used term in China that it is sometimes suggested by auto-complete algorithms on web portals such as Baidu, China's leading search engine. While searches for 'Jin San Pang' returned no results this week, Baidu left untouched results for other versions of the nickname, such as 'Kim Fat Fat Fat.' "
China has long been North Korea's only major ally, and the source of most of North Korea's trade. The relationship between the two countries has been strained, but not broken, by North Korea's continued testing of a nuclear weapons program.
In September, China condemned North Korea's fifth nuclear test, which caused strong tremors along the North Korea-China border.
