Either way, i hope you had fun. its a decent place to visit, but i woudlnt wanna live there. Did you like the food? its pretty similar to tawainese food since so many ex shanghainese fled to taiwain to escape crazy old mao.

i dont find my home town all that enjoyable... too snobby and rich for my taste. cant walk around anywhere without running into these social media cunts taking selifes and vlogs. drives me nuts. And worst of all, i cant do anything anti social like swear at people (love doing this in HK), try to trip old ladies, or basically just push idiots out of the way because of the constant surveillance and the social score, which im sure im in the negatives.

Haha. Joking aside, Shanghai is quite expensive. For high-end brands like Chanel and Hermes, it's better to just buy them in HK/JP. I was in JP during transit as I wanted to do ANA's The Room again when picking my flights so I got that covered.

All in all, Shanghai is just like any other major cities. You'd have a blast if you have money to blow.

As far as food is concerned, the true Shanghainese cuisine isn't for me. It's too sweet overall where even a dish as simple as stir-fried veggie is sweet. Coming from a TWes perspective, I usually don't mind my food being a tad sweeter as most of the southern TW street foods tend to be on the sweeter side, but Shanghai is on a whole other level of sweetness.

and you cant even get any inventory of decent products. good luck trying to buy anything half decent in hermes shanghai without spending at least 4to1 ... but that's the same in HK. Actually, i was able to buy my wife a quota bag from the Hermes in Orange County recently without any history or pre-spend. I talked to the only dude in there (and he wasnt gay! shocking) and we talked about shipping and he's just offered me a bag in two colour choices. Said I could only buy one though. I guess the tariffs diminished their business a tad, but hermes is still hermes. It ended being 500 dollars more than vs buying it in canada, but once again, you cant get it in Canada without wasting a wish list item.

Japan is just cleaned out right now due to the low yen they cant even keep bag charms in the stores.

Like anything in asia, shanghai is great if youre rich...

WTF are you two talking about Hermes, Gucci, Channel in this thread. GTFO and stop diluting the Charlie Kirk thread, you two hobos.

Badhobz 10-16-2025 06:19 AM

oh sorry hes dead. so... designer talk is of more value.

CivicBlues 10-16-2025 07:40 AM

Well nothing's gayer than Charlie K and two guys talking about designer handbags so I guess it kinda tracks...?

bcrdukes 10-16-2025 08:27 AM

Hehe and Badhobz sitting in a tree. K I S S I N G. First came Gucci. Then came Prada. Then comes a Hermes bag in a baby carriage!

Badhobz 10-16-2025 09:04 AM

Hehe's wife does come off as a cunty hoe though.... just saying. That bitch shanghainese too? her and evofire's wife should get a wechat group

bcrdukes 10-16-2025 09:06 AM

This thread suddenly got expensive.

Gerbs 10-16-2025 09:41 AM

mikemhg 10-17-2025 12:10 PM

BIC_BAWS 10-18-2025 01:38 AM

rip to the rage baiter legend. you will be missed. now who will dare rage bait these transmissions. damn the LG TV community.

bcrdukes 10-22-2025 09:52 AM

Interesting article on The Globe and Mail about "youth inspired by Charlie Kirk are mobilizing in red states, while Democrats look for ways to catch up." (Might be paywalled for you folks but I'm sure you're creative enough to find ways to access it.)

It’s weird how we stopped hearing about the “transsexual leftist” that killed him…..

Not really bro. I haven’t thought about any of these losers since everyone else stopped caring the day after.
Hope that helps.

I buy spark plugs that are the correct gap.
Don’t post your jerk off material in this thread please.

lol @ guy who literally cannot stop thinking and posting about Carney calling someone obsessed for making 1 observation about a dead guy’s murderer

Is being a giant hypocrite a requirement of conservative thinking?

RevYouUp 10-23-2025 07:36 AM

Nah I think being a liberal is being a big hypocrite. Just months ago, “buy Canadian”, now I bet they’re all back to regular programming, going to the states for vacations, using USA products and services, buying USA stocks (directly or indirectly)

whitev70r 10-23-2025 07:47 AM

There are hypocrites on both sides ... even those in the middle.

we've definitely reduced a lot of things even if not completely, at home and in our business.

also 'buy canadian' has nothing to do with liberal or conservative... just go on facebook and see all the boomers filling up the 'buy canadian' groups. like 80-90% of canadians are reducing their business with the states... not sure why you think it's a liberal movement. is it liberal to think trump is harming canada with his policies?

Perhaps you should look at the stats when it comes to cross border trips to the US year over year.
Or you know, you could just make things up to suit if you want.

Maybe you need to actually go read the news, travel to the states have been down 30% consistently, many groceries stores have seen piling of American products.

There are many sectors where there's no substitute, or for produce, the winter season means we have to buy from our neighbours from the south, but it doesn't mean it isn't still happening.

If a tree falls in a forest but you didn't see it, did it actually happen?

westopher 10-23-2025 08:36 AM

Trees are just a liberal conspiracy to control the weather. THATS GODS JOB LIBRUL
