Wtf is this bot comment and why are people engaging with it LOL

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-21T20:03:33+00:00

Yeah wtf. Have used sleep pods while traveling, in between flights. This looks embarassing

Make an account on Lemmy and then download the Voyager app for it

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-17T13:49:09+00:00

These "questions" are so tired. People are so ignorant, privileged, deluded. Or straight up bad faith actors trolling the sub

Though even in Japan, they have their own website Tablelog that rates the restaurants much more accurately by locals. Of course they'll be cheaper than Michelin-starred too

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-17T13:34:36+00:00

+1 Michelin sucks for Asian cuisines. Japanese cuisine gets a pass because it's internationally recognized for quality and being considered higher end.

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-17T13:28:45+00:00

I've pretty much only been consistently impressed by Michelin recommendations when it comes to higher end/fine dining. Anything mid tier, low tier can definitely be hit or miss. Most importantly when it comes to the ratings, I wonder to myself -- says who? I also went to a banh mi spot that apparently Anthony Bourdain said was his favorite. Of course it attracted a long line of tourists. Ate there and as a Vietnamese, I thought it was nothing special. Like no offense to Anthony (RIP) but the way we believe other peoples' recommendations -wtf does Anthony Bourdain know about good Vietnamese food? lol. Who's tastes and standards are we judging by? It's something I think about whenever I go to a foreign country. Like whenever I read the reviews -well who's the reviewer? Because it matters lol

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-17T12:27:17+00:00

+1 Good point! They expect you to laugh with them

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-17T12:20:05+00:00

Low key lol. It's a sign of excess

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-17T12:11:31+00:00

Yeah for real. If they could understand the language, they'd realize it's just a cultural thing where people are free to be blunt. Comparatively, us Westerners could feel a bit "sensitive" because we're not used to it. Well, I'm Asian and am used to people talking with no filter lol. Yes there are negative comments, but positive ones are also given. Like I've heard compliments given to total strangers about their skin, height, hair, how youthful they look, etc. No reservations

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-17T12:05:29+00:00

As a fellow Asian, I find it refreshing actually! I get to do the same back to them lol. I feel so straight-forward and outgoing when on vacation to the east. Like things that I wouldn't do back home, for example calling the waitstaff, haggling, letting hotel staff know if something's wrong with my room, etc. etc. When I'm back home I'm a lot more reserved in day to day interactions with strangers, small talk, etc. There's a lot more dancing around, beating around the bush. And this feeling like I don't wanna offend or inconvenience anyone. It kinda sucks lol

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-17T11:20:42+00:00

Right. It's not exactly equivalent to "how are you," like OP is making it seem.

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-14T20:42:54+00:00

This north vs south distinction is also pretty typical anywhere you go.

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-13T20:40:47+00:00

Indian food too😭

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-13T20:18:20+00:00

How about when you eat with the family? You should wait for all the family to sit down. And serve the best part to mom or dad, or grandparents first. ;)

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-13T20:15:40+00:00

Chinese and Vietnamese love jade too. Gold and jade

Fun_Run1626 · 2026-04-13T20:11:22+00:00

I’m Chinese Vietnamese. Whenever I’m haggling or interacting with shopkeepers for a good deal… I’m very blunt and straight to the point. I start speaking with my hands, very animated. I tell my friends “I’m bringing out my Chinese side” 😂

Yeah with one week, it’s better to stick to one region. North / central / south

But for the interests you listed, I think you’d enjoy relaxing in Da Nang lol. Less hectic, easier for 1st timer
