yes, mostly i can avoid them. they often dont react if you show no sign of knowing them

she didnt give me the choice though

but honestly, there were quite some questions racing through my head that would be fine to ask in the anonimity of the web

but would have made myself cringe in person

"d-do you have anything from xiaomi?"

if shes your average roastie, i guarantee you she probably got no cultural gains there

i have some coworkers who have been here for a year and a half and can speak no chinese

can barely say "i want this"

it seems impossible to not learn more

q-qing wen ni h-hui shuo ying wen m-ma

theres no way they can even say that

wew

she was/is a language teacher and knew chinese before she went there. probably got a really good job offer

first thing I learned in Mandarin was "eat shit"

learning chinese was where it all went wrong

would you?

it sounds so disgusting but the curiosity is strong

I would

tbqh

would I what? get food poisoning? >chink beer <:pepewot:327934404234313739>

I'd expect taiwanese to be a bit more stringent than mainland chinks

Is it even honey though, not sure

Yellow sugary paste, same ding

Oh it's Taiwan, guess it could be, dunno

no, honey isnt vegan <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

@porco How does it sound disgusting? Honey beer = mead. Or something akin to it.

china seems like a chill place to live

i always watch vlogs

of fags there

cheap electronics and shit

low cost of living

but u gotta work shit jobs

like teaching

I like the youtube racemixer duo

It's not chill. Thailand is chill. China is stressful. Everything is a hassle, stuff is never easy

I'm gonna try that beer when I go to Taiwan this month, I'll let you guys know

My fiancee says she is most excited to leave China because everything is a hassle. Even just ordering food, or signing up for something, it takes so much more work and stress than it should sometimes

taiwan is chill

taiwan #1

you dont even have to talk to people to order food here. Just cross the dish you like and they will bring it
