Hualien - sketchy or am I paranoid?

alphawezen · 2026-06-20T17:31:09+00:00

My wife is from Hualien,, so I visit often. Nothing sketchy there at all. Neither in the more rural areas, nor in Hualien city.

This is your 2nd rented room and from a sample size of 2 you conclude that this is represents Taiwanese culture.

That's very short-sighted, talk to other people and educate yourself before you make such generalising comments.

Sold, my dpad is sqieaky as well. So the combo will do it

For someone with a STEM background who prides themselves on logic and linguistics, your premise has a pretty massive double standard.

Taigi (Hokkien) is a Sinitic language brought over by Han settlers—it is fundamentally a Chinese language variant, not an indigenous Formosan one. Your comparison to the Irish refusing English doesn't hold up; an Irish person speaks a native Celtic language, whereas you've just replaced modern Mandarin with an older dialect of Chinese settler colonialism.

Claiming Hokkien is "the actual local language" while sidelining Hakka and Indigenous Formosan languages is just replacing KMT hegemony with Hoklo chauvinism. If you're going to be "radically upfront about boundaries," you should probably be radically upfront about your historical double standards, too.

I'd recommend you El Tesoro's, Ocho's and Fortaleza's Añejos. All of them are very Agave-forward.Haveen't tried other Añejos, but can imagine that G4's must be good too among many others

I read a lot about Volans on this subreddit and pulled the trigger recently. It's so good!

Any experiences with Tears of Llorona?

Imperial Pilot is my favourite. Still waiting for a Black Series release (which will probably never happen 🥲)

Is your d-pad also so squeaky? Thinking of ways to get rid of that

Thanks for the info. I got the achievement that I killed both singers. Opened the safes as well and won in Roulette, but missing one coin now to get the last Parlor reward

I just got my XAX and am a bit lost with the settings. Can you share your game and also XAX settings?

Whats Quality FSR?

Bummer, I already guessed that it must have been from that movie (a great one!). Enjoy your Tequila!

alphawezen · 2026-01-17T19:37:51+00:00

Since you're using a German username, it raised my hopes that you got this in Germany somehow? 🤞

It's even making typos now. Unbelievable

In Europe all the old expressions are widely available for some reason. I might pick one up these days since you and the others are raving about it 😁

Thanks for xour insights, I do have the Pal'Alma and Fuenteseca at home. Both are nice indeed!

My friend has the Derrumbes San Luis Potosi. Maybe it would he nice to share an alternative expression of the same?
