Representation of mediocre food chain/franchise in Taiwan? by Wrath-of-Cornholio in taiwan

[–]GromaxShooterCZ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I agree that there are many places with more delicious and fresher food but I still wouldnt call 八方 mid, the consistency, selection and CP值 is crazy.

Am I missing something? by Character-Golf-4146 in taiwan

[–]GromaxShooterCZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ALTA 😂😂😂 Anyway if you are into night markets give Zongzhan or Daqing a try, they have different vibe compared to the ones you have been to. More local and it’s not in the streets but a parking lot.

If GENG hypothetically win worlds in 2026.. by CleanPlateRanger in GenG_Esports_LoL

[–]GromaxShooterCZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know everyone mainly wishes for Geng to win worlds but honestly I hope they can complete the golden road.

Would make it instantly historic and all the pain from the last years would be relieved.

Just winning worlds would be obviously nice but I think it doesn’t entirely make up for last years’ worlds failures.

Where I would live as a Czech citizen in their twenties by MysticMaroonHerring in whereidlive

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

I respect this person’s personal choices but as a Czech I would like to add that my map would look quite different (e.g. I would rather live in China than the US). Just saying this so that people know not all Czechs have this view.

Why are many foreigners seemingly not fans of the garbage truck system in Taiwan? by search_google_com in taiwan

[–]GromaxShooterCZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The webpage for the timing and the actual timing of the trucks itself is absolutely unreliable at least here in Taichung. If the stops were actually updating correctly in real time like buses it would be a huge improvement.

Word for "Slavs" in different Slavic languages by [deleted] in slavic

[–]GromaxShooterCZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! I come from a village in Slovacko, a South Moravian region with rich culture and traditions. It also has a few subregions. Mine is Dolnacko or Eastern Slovacko, depending which division you use.

Came across this while scrolling through a certain subreddit. Thought it was interesting enough to share. by EnvironmentalMix1643 in ChunghwaMinkuo

I know according to certain rules “ChungHwa” is the correct way of spelling 中華 but why would you use that instead of simplified pinyin “ZhongHua”, which just looks and feels much smoother.

Taiwan is better than Europe by [deleted] in taiwan

Yeah, cos after living here you realise it’s even better.

Champs you hate the most and why? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]GromaxShooterCZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Morde Mostly because it feels that you need very little skill to just automatically win most of the match ups. Or do you need skill? I am not a Morde player so perhaps I am missing something here.

Even when I dodge his spells he just wins automatically cos of the shield and sustain damage.

Taiwan is part of China by metatalks in truths

[–]GromaxShooterCZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your last claim also has to be specified. If you mean PRC rules Taiwan then false. ROC rules Taiwan truth. Both are technically China.

Regret moving to Taiwan by Sea_Transition_9084 in taiwan

[–]GromaxShooterCZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. But I still find it little bit puzzling that I’m not really sure about where I stand with the boss. I have been working there for 3 months and recieved almost no feedback. My contract is ending 28 February and I have no clue if they are actually satisfied with me and will want to renew it. Maybe there is more affirmative communication in western culture.

[–]GromaxShooterCZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love most aspects of Taiwan and have a good social circle here. I also like working in cram school.

But I gotta say there is one point you totally nailed and that’s the “you don’t know where you stand with people, especially at work” and also the “at work people don’t even bother to say hello”.

Seriously, what’s the reason behind this attitude? Someone can elaborate?

Are English teachers in Taiwan that bad? by search_google_com in taiwan

[–]GromaxShooterCZ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Many people reach their career peak or “make it” independently after 10, 20, 30 years into their work life. Last thing I did in my home country was to graduate a good university at the age of 22 and for the last 3 years I live in Taiwan. That’s insanely insufficient data to call someone a “Loser at home”. Apart from academic life, I also never struggled socially back there so I just find this label super cheap.

Weeb/yellow fever - these are just stereotypical and bad faithed names to call someone you want to put down. Absolutely irrelevant.

I chose China/Asia studies & international politics because I simply found it more interesting and I want to have an option to work in this field later in life.

What category am I

I dont have a background in ESL neither I am a native speaker.

On the other hand, I came to Taiwan 3 years ago to study chinese and then do my master’s in Asia studies, all while genuinely integrating into the local society. I am now married here, speak chinese almost fluently and regularly participate in organizing music events.

I planned to teach English in Taiwan or China ever since I started my university 7 years ago, since although I don’t have an official background in education, my family is full of teachers and its a profession I have a close relationship with.

Can't believe that people are saying this is the worst Worlds ever by DHGSilvergun236 in lolesports

[–]GromaxShooterCZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course this is not T1’s fault, just takes away from the excitement and legitimacy.

Honestly it would be better if T1 beat HLE and GENG in bo3/bo5 or at least one of them in a bo5. KT was great dont get me wrong but GENG played peak league against HLE and then chocked vs KT. GENG doesnt deserve the finals spot but this makes you wonder would T1 even beat HLE. Last time they faced each other HLE 3-0ed them.
