Foreigners who have eaten their fill and have nothing better to do

Another well-fed foreigner with nothing better to do. See also empty chair.

While speaking to a group of overseas Chinese in Mexico in 2009, Xi Jinping, China's then heir apparent, declared:

There are some foreigners who have eaten their fill and have nothing better to do then point their fingers at our affairs. China does not, first, spread revolution; second, export poverty and hunger; or third, cause trouble for you. What else is there to say?

有些吃饱了没事干的外国人，对我们的事情指手画脚。中国一不输出革命，二不输出饥饿和贫困，三不去折腾你们，还有什么好说的。 [Source]

Xi’s remarks were embraced by the sphere of nationalist Chinese bloggers. The title of a blog post that originally appeared on Xinhua proclaimed, "Awesome! Xi Jinping bashes overly stuffed foreigners with nothing to do!" (习近平痛批有些吃饱了没事干的外国人，痛快！)
