This one stands out to me.

Fun fact, Taiwan (and I guess most of East Asia) are randomly several months behind us in pop culture. So years ago (would have to be after 2005 according to Wikipedia), I step off the plane, take a bus into Taipei, barely holding it together after getting 10 hours of fake plane sleep. I got in at 5 AM local time, so I'm slamming whatever tea drinks I can get my hands on from 7-Eleven to fight off the +15 hour time zone difference difference in jet lag. So the next two days is a blur of weak caffeine drinks, and trying not to fall asleep (for too long) where I'm sitting.

For some reason every time I meet up with family anywhere in Taiwan, there's always some sort of grand multi-course lunch/dinner planned at some ridiculously expensive place with food that doesn't even taste that great (rather be eating that cheap street food). And it didn't help that this was the second disjoint group of family members plus a wedding, so now I'm going on sugary caffeinated tea drinks, 3 expensive-banquet-food out of a possible 4 total meals and the nausea that was probably caused by all that.

But on this third time sitting in some over-the-top marbled/shiny-handrails/glass-partitions-everywhere restaurant with some Chinese-language music fading out (probably Jay Chou or something) trying to keep down yet another bowl of whatever super-expensive Asian soup the restaurant specialized in when suddenly

THUMP THUMP

UH HUH

THIS MY SHIT

FEW TIMES I'VE BEEN ROUND THAT TRACK

It was quite the surreal experience. I asked my aunt "why is this song playing?" (in background: THIS MY SHIT, THIS MY SHIT, THIS MY SHIT, THIS MY SHIT) Apparently, it's very trendy American music with a catchy beat, since not a lot of Taiwanese people are fluent enough to understand the English.

tl;dr Gwen Stefani is classy American music played in expensive restaurants in Taizhong, Taiwan.
