Just heard an announcer on the Olympics say, "And representing Chinese Taipei...she's the first athlete from Taiwan to compete!"

And then the other commentator made a drat good point of saying, "Chinese Taipei," every other time they mentioned her nationality.

(I keep thinking they're calling her, "Chinese Type-A.")

Even if Taiwan is rightful PRC clay, what’s wrong with “she's the first athlete from Taiwan to compete”?

If I say “she’s the first athlete from Missouri to compete”, that doesn’t imply that Missouri is an independent country.

They're so insecure that mentioning Taiwan without explicitly calling it a province of the PRC is often enough to get in trouble. Because nothing is more convincing of how cool you are than saying "I'm cool" every single time you open your mouth.

E: I am sure I've mentioned it but my company had a week long government incident because the material I was given to do a dumb substitute fill-in class at a middle school had a single brief mention of Taiwan that said Taiwan and not Taiwan province.

Goons. What do you do if you've been seeing an ethnically-Chinese woman for a little while and she likes you, but is super secretive about her job even though you can see she is super retardedly rich? What do you do if you stay the night at her house a few times and never bring your clothes, and shes tosses you a promotional clothing item from her job, and you Google the name of the company and find out she's a founding member of a billion-dollar company, owns a loving tower in a major city, and her name shows up listed in a few articles on big financial news sites (think Forbes,etc.)?

I'm not even making this up. She was saying "Wouldn't it be cool to just buy a village and get all the people there to work for you?" and I'm like "Oh, yeah, I think about that all the time..." She told me to stop by any time I am in the area and raid her fridge, because she has a chef come every night to prepare a 5-6 dish meal for her and she can't finish it. We had fun, but I regret Googling this because LMAO at my yearly budget being less than her monthly electric bill.

She offered me a job for when some project is finished next year. I told her if we're still friends by then sure. She asked why wouldn't we be friends and I just said "Uh, I travel a lot."
I will try not to screw it up, but let's see. I already got a bunch of free food to eat that tasted way better than most of the stuff I pay for outside. She also paid my boat fare to go home, so that was cool. That's like 12 baht! She almost didn't have any coins because she doesn't do her own shopping.

How rich and/or snobby is her family? Wealthy Chinese family drama is best observed from the sidelines and not as a participant. It'd be worse if she's considered the scion of the family and has heavy expectations about her conduct and life.

It'd be really ironic if you're the side man and she wants to buy you a village to live in the way rich Chinese businessmen buy apartments for their mistresses.

I got roped into going to a "fashion show", it was actually a spring festival thing, in boston last weekend and it opened with "5000 years of chinese history" and was pretty much 3 hours long of people speaking chinese with maybe 10 minutes of fashion show, 30-40 minutes of not standing there speaking into a microphone. The person who tricked me into going doesn't speak chinese and neither did their friends. We went to see their friend who was in the fashion show part. Overall, it was an awkward experience and it reminded me of you guys.

Sadly I suspect that given he's recently posted about being in Bangkok and he said ethnically Chinese, what he meant was a Thai woman from a Chinese background.

This also means if that family touches politics, he's very likely on the wrong side.

I'm in Bangkok and I'm renting an airbnb from a Chinese woman. The day before I'm due to check in, I get a message telling me to ignore all the signs in the building saying no airbnb allowed and just to say that I'm a friend. There are huge signs everywhere that are like "NO AIRBNB, if you are staying here you are trespassing and will be arrested." It's a really aggro vibe that's kind of ruining my chill. Now I'm afraid to use the really awesome rooftop pool and fitness center because they both have signs up asking residents to report suspected Airbnb guests. On a scale of 1-10, how likely am I to be kicked out of this condo by the Thai Airbnb fun police?

Act like you belong there and don't be an rear end in a top hat. Are you actually trespassing? If you are really worried about it, call abnb customer service. They will find you a new spot, and usually throw some of their money in. They do not like it when hosts try to get one over, like, at all.
