After living in Taiwan for over four years I've become aware of some "interesting" beliefs that a lot of Taiwanese people share, mostly through through things my Taiwanese girlfriend says. I'm not trying to put down Taiwanese people in any way, and I already know that every culture has its own superstitions that others might see as silly or stupid, so I don't want to hear a bunch of crying or accusations of me being racist.
I'm sorry if the title of this blog comes off as being mean, I guess I have a dry sense of humor. It is actually just a take off on the blog "Stupid Shit My Dad Says" as my O blood type predisposes me to a lack of creativity. Of course, I could have named this blog "Culturally Unique Things My Racially Anonymous Girlfriend Says" or "Things My Dumbass Foreign Boyfriend Is Too Stupid To See Are Obviously True" but the domain names for those blogs were already taken. These are just some of the pearls of wisdom and ancient Chinese secrets that keep me entertained.
just wanna say, this is hilarious.
ReplyDeleteI'm Taiwanese, and I'm a girl, but I don't find this offensive.
See, that's the problem with locals, they're so serious they can't just laugh it off and call it a day.
