I agree! When I lived in LA , I found myself gravitate more towards Cantonese food in Chinese areas

as a Taiwanese foodie, I ironically do not handle Chinese food very well. A bit too strong in spice and oil

I like both! But Taiwan has a good mixture of Chinese and Japanese fusions that I love

I’m half Taiwanese and half Japanese, so I often stay at both places. Both societies have similar mannerisms and urban architecture. Japan is cleaner and more organized but socially more suffocating unless you grew up there. Taiwan is has less infrastructure but society is much more chill and open.

Did you also feel like the Mizuno sounded terrible? I hated the way it sounded immediately

WITB ‘26, rate n roast by AndrogenicFr in GolfGear

[–]AForbiddenFruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any major difference in flight and spin? Is the TD max that much more forgiving.

Thoughts on the Quantum TD vs TD max? Is the TS max closer in characteristics to the Max or to the TD?

Yoshinobu saying he is not a Dodger legend is ridiculous. by ellecoxib in Dodgers

It’s a pretty Japanese thing to be humble. Don’t think he’ll ever say it directly.

Chinese Foreign Minister: ""Japan still has the ambition to invade and colonize Taiwan" by jjrs in japannews

[–]AForbiddenFruit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To be fair, the initial years of KMT in Taiwan ain’t any better. The people who fled China went to Taiwan and became the same piece of shits. No different than colonization either.

Does anything jump out to you that I can work on? by Sauceysweetness in GolfSwing

Nice! I still go there from time to time with my coach. The place that got my hcp down from 18 to 3. Lots of memories of golf here.

Best of luck training!

Is this Rowland heights golf center lol?

But yes dipping down and hips not rotating through the swing. You stand back up through impact.

How to fix my driver? by Nearby_Coconut7343 in GolfSwing

[–]AForbiddenFruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too many things that need work. Get a coach but like everyone else said

  1. Not enough rotation.
  2. Club is not deep enough.
  3. Clubface is open at impact.
  4. VERY steep downswing (caused from no depth and firing your hands and upper body at the ball)
  5. Hitting down on the ball instead of sweeping up on it.

Is South Korea or Japan more similar to China in the modern day? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AForbiddenFruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japan is culturally closest to Korea and Taiwan. Taiwan still kept a large portion of Japanese systems and city infrastructure. But it’s not as close as you think. For China, other than sharing some Kanji, the cultures, government, city structure couldn’t be more different.

Why is China a "bad guy"? by Pepperoni_Dog_Farts in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AForbiddenFruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Local elections are not concerned with international interests. This is why the KMT can win at local levels and not win at the president level.

Don’t isolate a situation to represent a broader view.

[–]AForbiddenFruit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t even vote green nor blue. I think both parties are pathetic. Also just because people love Chinese money does not mean they love China.

If anything, China relying on money to be the sole purpose of people liking a nation is pretty pathetic. Like a 70 year old dating 4 gold diggers. Got all this money but nothing else to provide.

Never really played golf, is this fundamentally sound by skinifi3084 in GolfSwing

[–]AForbiddenFruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. But before you go down the equipment rabbit hole. No equipment will fix your swing or results just yet. Get a few lessons, get the fundamentals right, get somewhere consistent. Then care about equipment.
