It’s slowly getting stricter and enforcement tightening up . Smoke signal of the times
Lol. If only. I smell smoke in my classroom about 80% of the day. (Smoking of course being “illegal” within whatever specific distance of all schools) Poke my head out the window and never see anyone. I’m convinced it’s someone upstairs with the windows open who knows they won’t get in trouble. Location: Taipei City
The ball and chain’s delivered pizza was delayed this evening because the person at the restaurant keyed in waidai by mistake. The follow-up phone call by my wife was something to behold. I was so scared I hid in the toilet, and it had nothing to do with me.
First rule of Taiwan: Never leave a lady hungry.

What, exactly, does that mean? Could you say it again, preferably in English this time?
Are you absolutely sure she doesn’t read your posts here?

Fair point. 15 years and I still have my balls, so she’s tolerated me to date.

Still, no call for complacency. The intactness of your cojones requires constant vigilance.

“She who must be obeyed” is probably a more accurate descriptor.

First rule of Taiwan is ‘people are watching’
With that much rage, just feel lucky it has been misdirected from you. 
Glad I don’t have a ball and chain, and only have to tolerate a trouble and strife, who came to my defense when I was accosted by the cops for DUI many years ago.
I’ve been a good boy ever since.

I miss my watermelon knife. It also served well for cutting pumpkins.

Where did you put it?
I’ve noticed more smoking on the streets, not less. Our local 7-11 has people sitting outside smoking 24/7 and a new restaurant just opened next door that has smoke billowing out whenever open.
Left it at work. Was a good motivator for the kids. Also discouraged the parents from talking to me.
