But you better ask a Taiwanese, i just heard it from complaining farmers

2018-02-13 09:29:30 UTC

the thing about being Asian is that you have to speak the language too

2018-02-13 09:30:07 UTC

I'm learning the language without being Asian already

2018-02-13 09:30:13 UTC

Mandarin is a beautiful language

2018-02-13 09:30:21 UTC

So many colorful and creative insults

2018-02-13 09:30:28 UTC

no it isnt

2018-02-13 09:30:56 UTC

even if it is, no one speak it right

2018-02-13 09:31:55 UTC

proper pronunciation is Beijing area from what I hear

2018-02-13 09:32:30 UTC

enjoy your dialects lmao

2018-02-13 10:14:00 UTC

Beijing dialect is seen as the real proper manderin

2018-02-13 10:14:22 UTC

So much so that if you tell people you speak Beijing manderin instead of just manderin they will think you're posh

2018-02-13 10:14:48 UTC

I don't think manderin is beautiful. I think it's too harsh sounding and comes out as ugly.

2018-02-13 10:15:06 UTC

But that's just my opinion

2018-02-13 14:00:20 UTC

Cantonese sounds slightly more sophisticated though

2018-02-13 14:00:51 UTC

it uses sharper sounds

2018-02-13 17:09:26 UTC

I agree

2018-02-13 17:26:11 UTC

I like cantonese

2018-02-13 17:26:21 UTC

It sounds funny in jacky chan movies

2018-02-13 17:48:42 UTC

2018-02-14 07:50:41 UTC

2018-02-14 08:04:15 UTC

2018-02-15 16:16:12 UTC

gf is kil

2018-02-15 16:16:17 UTC

Probably realized she's missing an ingredient and went out

2018-02-15 16:16:25 UTC

Let's guess what she's cooking

2018-02-15 16:17:49 UTC

Also I got her a red envelope with 1000 Taiwan$

2018-02-15 16:17:54 UTC

Because it's CNY

2018-02-15 16:29:17 UTC

2018-02-15 16:58:20 UTC

2018-02-15 16:58:35 UTC

2018-02-15 16:59:00 UTC

2018-02-15 16:59:10 UTC

Lmao

2018-02-15 16:59:46 UTC

2018-02-15 17:00:15 UTC

2018-02-15 17:00:21 UTC

Major?

2018-02-15 17:00:37 UTC

cs

2018-02-15 17:00:41 UTC

Neat

2018-02-15 17:01:10 UTC

Chinese people in college aren't really that smart.

2018-02-15 17:01:20 UTC

They fake transcripts like crazy

2018-02-15 17:03:25 UTC

well i'm not that smart either

2018-02-15 17:03:44 UTC

i tend not to cheat tho

2018-02-15 17:20:11 UTC

We watched the gala tonight. So fucking boring

2018-02-15 17:20:27 UTC

It's a lot of dancing and telling Chinese people that other countries think China is great

2018-02-15 17:27:17 UTC

Macron appeared

2018-02-15 17:27:27 UTC

Trump didn't.

2018-02-15 17:34:56 UTC

Gala always sucks. It's just a big show to show how great china is

2018-02-15 17:53:15 UTC

cny is on valentines day

2018-02-15 17:56:46 UTC

cny is on the 16th and valentines was on the 14th

2018-02-15 18:01:21 UTC

^
People seem to forget that valentines is completly made up and was assured to not intervene with any other major holiday

2018-02-15 18:18:29 UTC

In case anyone wondered what she was making

2018-02-15 18:18:54 UTC

looks edible

2018-02-15 18:19:15 UTC

Oh i thought it was bamboo on the first pick

2018-02-15 18:19:20 UTC

Meat looks good tho

2018-02-15 18:22:47 UTC

no chopsticks?

2018-02-15 18:22:59 UTC

chinksticks?

2018-02-15 18:24:49 UTC

Btw

2018-02-15 18:25:05 UTC

@porco Why the cooking plate on top of the cooking plate?

2018-02-15 18:26:12 UTC

I N D U C T I O N Stovetop

2018-02-15 18:26:28 UTC

voltlets will never understand such joy

2018-02-15 18:29:11 UTC

Ooh

2018-02-15 18:29:17 UTC

Well that makes sense

2018-02-15 18:29:28 UTC

FeelsVoltletMan

2018-02-15 18:31:56 UTC

You're a german, you can just plug in the cheaper 220v

2018-02-15 18:32:57 UTC

110v burger feels are bad feels

2018-02-15 18:33:22 UTC

*cheaper*

2018-02-15 18:33:35 UTC

That's really relative

2018-02-15 18:34:00 UTC

I got that induction plate on 11.11

2018-02-15 18:34:09 UTC

Could never consider cooking with anything else anymore

2018-02-15 18:34:18 UTC

It's so fucking nice

2018-02-15 18:34:33 UTC

It's really different worlds, people who haven't tried it can't imagine

2018-02-15 18:35:29 UTC

Yeah but 110v models are bigger and need to have a lot more componants so they cost 1.5 more stateside.
@porco yeah, I fiddled with a friends stovetop, near instant and even heating.

2018-02-15 18:36:02 UTC

I will probably remove the whole stove and replace it with a real 400v induction set up

2018-02-15 18:36:07 UTC

Sounds like something i shouldn't try unless i got cash for a new kitchen set

2018-02-15 18:36:29 UTC

But not this year, rather 2019ish

2018-02-15 18:36:38 UTC

Since the one I like is almost 10k

2018-02-15 18:36:47 UTC

Need to wait for my bonus end of FY

2018-02-15 18:37:10 UTC

But really, induction is so beautiful

2018-02-15 18:37:33 UTC

2019?
