You Know You Live in Asia When...


  1. You've paid for cuts of meat in your food that would NEVER be eaten in the USA. Fatty pork is just not tasty in America (your loss, USA!)
  2. There are bubble tea shops everywhere that are really good quality. 
  3. Chopsticks are the default in food courts
  4. You have to ask for a fork, and good luck with the knife
  5. You can't spot your friend anywhere, because you're in a crowd and everyone has black hair
  6. There's some silly-looking tourist in a funny hat ready to go trekking or something, who stops you and speaks really slow asking for directions.
  7. There's a smell that you cannot figure out what it is, and question if you really want to anyways. 
  8. "Insert country's name" food is not "Insert country's name" food, but "FOOD" 
    1. For example, "Chinese food" is "Food" in China
  9. There's a tiny old granny walking around who you swear is 110 or so
  10. You see poorly made T-Shirts with some interesting English words on them. My personal favourite was in Taiwan, with a T-shirt that read "Bubble Star Sparkle Love". What?
