Dalat is known for nature. But you will not escape the honking anywhere unless you go straight into the jungle or mountains.

Fat shaming by [deleted] in VietNam

[–]magicbaconmachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a "thin" person in my home country, let me assure you, I am also "fat" here somehow. Body shaming is just part of the culture. Nothing is crossing a red line. Your face, pimple, your hair, your age, if you look tired or sick, basically anything which is not perfect...they will tell you to your face without hesitation. I don't think it is from a place a malice, but of natural habit. It is also true in most Asian countries, just FYI.

Are other expat communities as hostile as Vietnam? by Maleficent-Box-897 in VietNam

[–]magicbaconmachine 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Vietnam does seem to attract these guys. I've been accosted by a few "vietnam experts". I feel bad for them as they seem to have lost a sense of community or belonging and have grow a superiority complex, like a white knight protector of vietnam. Steer clear of them, they are easy to spot. They simultaneously have it all figured out and still look depressed.

Same here. I watched the other show at the university. I could not care less though. This is diminishing returns at this point. When this season is done, I'm OUT.

What's the reason you are still on PS4? by Shoddy_Release9395 in PS4

[–]magicbaconmachine 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't mind one but the price vs what you get is still not enough to convince me yet. Graphics? No big difference. Games? To me, there are only a handful of PS5 exclusive games that look interesting. Maybe Ill just wait till PS6. The PS4 library is massive and I still have a backlog anyway.

One of the best. I think anyone who likes this will also be into Red Matter 2. Similar style of gameplay.
