It will be like 95 degrees with 90 percent humidity and pm2.5 of like 1000 and I may be in the thick of things. Yes I will be jogging daily in the shadows of coal fired power plants, and yes, I will once again be the only WGIC in the county /truly one in a million/. I may be taking a taxi to the big town to have a slice of pizza on the weekends and yes, I may be eating only boiled eggs for breakfast. To that end, we boldly go.

Here you go, it's 3 bucks per bottle but we have a full shelf. 300 dollars worth of water because it's baller. And I will smile and say thanks and use that water bottle for the next three weeks.

I mean imagine that. You live and work in a place wily doesn't want to visit although he will drive himself through jiangsu province and anhui villages. Just can't be bothered because there is no din fung tai in the vicinity and the fact that i know the manager of the local haidilao and we can skip the line doesn't impress him. Yea okay, you mean there are no michelin honorable mentions anywhere? No bagels at all in the province? Like how can you live there? And I feel like one of his parents students. Ok I can pay his exorbitant fees for my gunner kid, and yea I can yuck it up about shipping or logistics or chemical market updates, but in the end I still feel empty and dumb and self conscious of the dirt on the soles of my shoes that I trodded all the way to Shanghai from the factorysite.

Tue, 06 May 2025 16:38:38 -0700 whiteguyinchina from private IP Reply #18420333 And when I leave, I imagine the girls he pays 700 dollars a month to manage the front desk angrily and with a disgusted face sweep up that yellow sand assuming it's one of the kids tramping in the dirt and not realizing they were stuck on the bottom of WGICs paul smith suede shoes. I may as well have stained teeth, black pants to my armpits, a big belt LV belt buckle, and a pack of chunghwa cigarettes that I smoke on the elevator. Because even when my mandarin doesn't sound like a white guy speaking, it sounds like a country bumpkin Tue, 06 May 2025 16:41:10 -0700 whiteguyinchina from private IP Reply #16615285 🤣 🤣 Andy, my first goal is not to drink at all. Whoring is out clearly, but people assume that I need alcoholism as a consolation prize. Not so. Last time I ate cow balls, pig liver, and cicadas. And drank gross moutai /possibly counterfeit/ then I vomited the said balls, livers and insect parts into my hands. It was then and there that I vowed to never do that again.

Bro you are an Industralist. I am but a mere service worker for the Industrialists and their spawn and their spawn's spawn. Alas, you are right, there is nothing but Pollution and Industry where you are in Shitxi. My Shanghainese wife is the main problem - I drove through an industrial part of Wuxi in Jiangsu two weeks ago, where her dad's old Factory that he used to manage was, and she hated it. All trucks and potholes. We got to the touristy Ancient Town part of Wuxi and I knew immediately I would need to find the only Black Pearl restaurant (China's version of the Michelin guide) there. We all felt much better after being served some fusion deep fried eggplants with grated French cheese on top, on a black marble table, with sufficient AC. Brother, your kids and Kickflip's kids will have the JDU Discount for my company's test prep, which is the best in China and maybe the US too. I am going head to head against whatever scrubs San Diego has and winning despite being 70% more expensive. The JDU discount is Secret Tier and normally you need to give me a permanent discount on my rent, help me evade closure due to Covid restrictions, or deliver my child for it (literally, I taught the kids of both my OB GYN and the president of the international hospital where she was delivered - they upgraded us to the best suite there, normally $25000 for 5 days, and the doctor did house calls for us for a month afterwards). I'll make sure your kids get 1500+ on the SAT personally (1550+ possibly if they can start with 1350+ in G10, haha).

My then-gf, who among other things was a real estate developer in the US, Canada, RoC, and Red China, was trying at various times to get DTF to open other locations on properties she owned. On one occasion we dined at dtf and, being a white ghost of considerable Height (which is 6'1" btw) I ordered what to the peasant servant girl waitress seemed an erroneously large amount of food. It was after 18 holes and I was Famished. Anyhow, I ate all that stuff and more; and this caused the waitress to opine to my gf that my ability to consume mass quantities was 很厲害. I am a man of Appetites. Wed, 14 May 2025 10:40:46 -0700 phosita from private IP Reply #17580651 wgic, update pıs. Are you in-country? Wed, 14 May 2025 15:26:12 -0700 Andy from private IP Reply #11289823 I love Din Tai Fung except for the three hour wait. Wed, 14 May 2025 20:09:36 -0700 Wily from private IP Reply #16529169 Din Tai Fung is pretty mid by Shanghai standards. Shanghai is the hometown of Xiao Long Bao, and Din was made basically by Shanghai emigrants to Taiwan. I honestly eat better baos from delivery apps for like $7. Still, I do miss Ramen Nagi, the other Taiwanese (fake Japanese) chain that's usually next to Din Tai Fung in California malls. It used to be in Shanghai but then China-Taiwan bad mojo forced it to close last year.

Other globetrotting by me remains under consideration.Replies require login.
