Wack Things In Taiwan 2021

If only they new about something called roundabout.

To be honest, from what I’ve seen in the very few roundabouts here, I am happy there are not more of them.

To be honest, I think he tried to do a u turn/ three point turn and he fucked up. Maybe he thought it was in reverse, and when he hit the accelerator, it went forward. I’ve done that and it is scary as hell. The kid falling out the car seat sounds like bs trying to make a reasonable excuse. An honest mistake and not someone doing a dodgy turn on that road at that time. If you know that road, it isn’t exactly a quiet street.

He had two choices.

Land of engineers?

There are presumably some pretty good electronic production engineers, and they make OK scooters, but I doubt that qualifies for the title.

In terms of the general urban population, I’d say its the Land of the Kack Hand.

I tagged along to a woodwork lesson my gf went to a few years ago. Made myself a nice little spoon. Star pupil.

30 Taiwanese in a room using edge tools, perhaps for the first time.

It was absolutely terrifying.

By some miracle no one was injured, but I was obliged to signal the instructor to take the woman opposites chisel away (which he did) because I really didn’t want arterial spray in my eyes.

Taiwanese get lost going around the block.

I know that is hard to believe, but I’ve seen my gf do it, in Kaohsiung, her home town.

My fault. She was going to do the culturally mandated umpteen point turn on a busy street and I stopped her.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

this is hilariously true, I’ve had Taiwanese locals who were born in the city I was staying in getting lost. It was unreal…I wonder what it is…it’s baffling to me that people got no clue how to get around the very city they have spent their entire life confined to.

Playground were everything were thoroughly designed for kids.

Taichung ship crashes into port…lol

Whoops.

That’s not a whoops.

That’s some pilot going rogue on Christmas Day.

Shuishang it’s just at the south end of the runway. Sonic boom ha. The Village Chief may think so but anyway the military will do everything it can to make it go away and help pay for damages excetera.

Wonder what sort of discipline (if any) is forthcoming.

I thought I heard an old woman outside screaming “owww, owww, owww, owww, owww…”

Looking out the window, it’s an old man directing a big truck backing up into a construction area.

those sonic booms from those jets planes is insane. I lived near an airforce base when I was a kid and I still have the sonic boom and rattling etched in my memory.

The toilet at my office has a giant puddle of urine under one of the urinals.

Surely he must have noticed the piss splattering his shoes and trousers.

Dirty bastard.

Using both hands to collect Pokemon obvious to what was happening below.

Who is that Pokémon?

Can confirm - men using their phone at urinals is very common at my office.

Sonic booms were a regular occurrence when I was kid, until they only allowed it in very low populated areas.

It’s f&cking disgusting what the men do in the restrooms.

I can only imagine (and I will NEVER TOUCH) what’s on their precious phones. :face_vomiting:
