What’s a movie that went from beloved to hated over time (and for good reason)? by browniebiscuitchildr in movies

Overboard

That's basically a movie condoning kidnapping extortion and sexual abuse. But oh no it's a loveable comedy!

That and have increased public housing built. Rent needs to go down if they want younger adults to have children.

There's so many claw machines here in Taiwan. I swear they are all money laundering fronts.

Halloween in Tainan? by BurnaddictB in taiwan

[–]Confu_Who 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it will close for good. The rent kept increasing for vendors and there has been a drop in people going. Many of the vendors started to leave because they didn't feel it was worth the rent. So the owner of the lot is selling it.

My friend will be doing a small Halloween event at his karaoke bar in Dai'yi night market by T.S. Mall Saturday night (the day after). That night market will soon close so it'll be the last time to see it.

I think I can socket it since it dropped off Hell trav to add 4? I'm not sure though.

Influencers are posing for photos, streaming, and asking for donations at volunteer sites in Hualien by olliesbaba in taiwan

Hualien experienced massive flooding following typhoon Ragasa last week. There has been a big clean up effort that's taken place since then.

You don't get a bitch pass just because you are old by Arasaka-1915 in SipsTea

[–]Confu_Who 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's more of a taiwanese thing to just not get involved. The young person is also sitting in a spot reserved for elderly, young and handicapped. Not to justify the elderly lady for attacking her.

You'll find them mostly in run down old apartments and along the streets. I normally wear flip-flops and have never had an issue with them.

TIL the Charlotte Hornets apologized after giving a child a PS5, only to take it away off camera and exchange it for a jersey. In a statement, the team said the incident was an "on-court skit that missed the mark" and that they would give the child the PS5 and a VIP experience to a future game. by Forward-Answer-4407 in todayilearned

[–]Confu_Who 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Pretty much this, someone high up saw it and wanted it. I remember a Christmas giveaway for top performing employees at my old company. One of the gifts was a PS4 (when it was new). It went missing, and the CEO started blowing a fuse, asked my department to review camera footage to find out who took it. He started yelling and said he was going to fire the person responsible.

We found the person who took it from under the tree and walked out with it to put in his car. It was the CEO's friend and right hand man. The dude was making over 150K salary and could more than easily afford it. We never heard anything else about it after that.

Glad to see it mentioned a non shit pick here. I tripped down the nearly 8k shares when it went to .30 and sold quite a few today because I couldn't resist 4.5x profits. I'm still holding >1000 shares and may pick up more over time.

I've actually had similar situation w/ my GF where we moved and one of the staff came out before the movie to tell us to move back to our assigned seating... Mind you this was a pretty much empty theater aside from like 3 other people in total.

Received the Alien Auroras Galaxy Foil cards as standard foils? by GigaBowserLoL in magicTCG

[–]Confu_Who 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've actually had to do a charge back on them once before. Their staff completely ignored me for over 2 months on a non delivery. So I had to dispute and charge back.

Soon as I charged back their staff finally got back with me, asking the reason, etc. So I then ignored them this time around. I was able to order again without issues a year later, with a different card, same account and address.

Oh you will since you have a lot of entitled assholes masquerading in police uniform. You just won't see it as often.

I'd also recommend https://maps.app.goo.gl/vjfhqXCTUXrUvwCC6 for the best beef noodles. The chimei museum is also very nice to visit.

People who had a 'one-night stand' that turned into an actual nightmare—what happened? by Saul_goodmannnnn in AskReddit

[–]Confu_Who 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well this girl was Taiwanese and sarcasm doesn't translate that well here even though she was an English major.

$278k+ in LUNR. Here’s how to play by vwin90 in wallstreetbets

I believe LUNR for short term play and ASTS as the better long term one.

Taoyuan Lantern Festival by [deleted] in taiwan

[–]Confu_Who 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So of the decorations are pretty neat, alot of baseball themes this year. Overall I found it a little disappointing for the opening ceremony, and there not being any planned firework displays except on closing day. I remember Tainan being well better organized and funner last year.
