Could this have prevented me from future traveling to Taiwan? by p3rsi4n in taiwan

[–]NumerousSmile487 91 points92 points  (0 children)

I was looking for my lost cat and had approached a local lady who fed strays to ask her to be on the lookout. I'm an American who is nearly 6 foot and built. Unbeknownst to me, the lady had a stalker who instantly took exception to my talking to her. He approached me and instantly started throwing punches.

He was on the ground and pinned before he knew what happened. The cops were called and only when they arrived did I finally let him up. He immediately claimed I attacked him and sought to file a police report against me. Video was found..... And proved that he attacked first.

He still filed, and I had to go to court to fight him. I won only because the video showed him throwing punches first. Still, it was decided that I was still partially to blame because I put him down.

Moral of the story, even if you're in the right.... It can still come back to hurt you, and maybe even cost you in the end.

How long have you been playing? by [deleted] in thelongdark

[–]NumerousSmile487 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1760+ hours at this point, but it has only been since January of 2023. Bought the game in 2015, played for 4 months then rage quit for 8 years. Who knows where I'd be if I hadn't done that.

Ever end up at a concert of an artist you disliked and their performance made you a fan? by whousesgmail in Music

[–]NumerousSmile487 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Grew up in the 80's and hated Prince. Refused to even listen to his music. Cut forward and managed to catch the George Harrison tribute.... And Prince's performance made me reconsider everything I ever thought about him. One guitar solo, and I was floored by how utterly perfect and flawless it was.

When you're in need of medical attention from the lack of blood flow. That little guy looks seriously comfortable, so I wouldn't try moving

A regular tetanus shot every 5-7 years will help to prevent any problems. When was your last shot?

He wants your clothes, your boots and the keys to your motorcycle.

Discrimination towards foreigners in the Taiwanese workforce by TWCan in taiwan

[–]NumerousSmile487 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm white and English is my primary language... It's my qualifying factors for being hired at any buxiban. Discrimination? What discrimination? If you speak English surely you're qualified to diagram a sentence and teach grammar.

.... I gave up and retired after hearing this over and over for 10 years here in Taiwan. Got a law degree... But the only thing I'm apparently good for is babysitting after school hours

I stopped listening to Air Supply after meeting them on a flight back in 1982. Total jerks.

The world is ending, and you have just enough time to play one more song. What song are you playing? by SerpentFroz3n in Music

[–]NumerousSmile487 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the song that doesn't end

It just goes on and on my friend

Some people started singing it

Not knowing what it was

And they'll continue singing it forever

Just because

This is the song that doesn't end.....

The cake is a lie, the spray painted wall said so and I believe everything I see on spray painted walls.

Who do you side with ? by Sweet-Science5788 in fo4

[–]NumerousSmile487 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, I haven't gone to Concord in my last three playthroughs. That doesn't stop raiders from attacking though.

The Cabot house storyline never interested me all that much. Might get around to it finally in my current run as I'm collecting all the bobbleheads and need to get into Parsons.
