Jay Chou Nostalgia

Ur dedicating a whole post to Jay Chou?! ๐Ÿคจ

It’s not a dedication. Just a topic of conversation!

Y?!??!!

Well would you rather I hyper focus on YOUR GENRE and all the RANDOM GOSSIP AND DRAMA THAT’S HAPPENING ON SOCIAL MEDIA RIGHT NOW, OVER THERE?!?!?!??!

๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜… Nevermind, what do u wanna say abt Jay Chou?

Well… remember when I went to the Billie Eilish concert?

Yeah… (LOL ๐Ÿคฃ)

Why are you laughing?!?!

I just realised something abt u… ๐Ÿ˜

What?!?!

U like to… rewind

Huh?!

U like to go… all the way back… and setting ur scene… u like to go all the way back and I can always guess but I’m not gonna guess or interrupt cos ur winding back, ur setting up ur scene… ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

Why is that funny?!??!

It’s just so cute! ๐Ÿฅฐ I love you ๐Ÿ˜˜โ™ฅ๏ธ

Okay…. anyway!

Yes, my love, anyway! Billie Eilish? ๐Ÿฅฐ

Well, I actually had dinner with my brother and sister-in-law in Sunnybank, that’s why I missed her opening act. I can’t remember if I wrote that already?!

๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ ROFLMAO!!!

Why are you laughing?!

Only U would miss the opening act cos ur havin dinner with ur bro & sis-in-law!!! ONLY U WOULD DO THAT!!!

Nobody else is gonna waste their concert ticket money and MISS the opening act cos they’re having dinner with family?!?!?!?!?!!!

Other people miss the opening acts…

Because of TRAVEL or WORK or whatever other reasons! They’re not just casually having dinner with their brother and sister-in-law like “oh yeah Billie Eilish doesn’t start yet. Let’s go have dinner at a restaurant first!”

NOBODY DOES THAT EXCEPT YOU!!! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

What… are you… I’m sure there’s some other people who would do that too!

A very small percentage! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ (This still really tickles him for some reason!)

Anyway! So they were asking me, “what do u feel like eating for dinner? Korean? Japanese? Taiwanese? Chinese? Vietnamese? Thai?” There’s so many options in Sunnybank!

Uhuh…

In the end we went to a Chinese-owned noodle place…

Uhuh… I genuinely don’t know where you’re going with this story now…

So, we were having noodles.

Were they good noodles? What type of Chinese noodles?

Omg you just keep interrupting me and where I’m going with this story…

๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ So the noodles aren’t that important in this story?!

NO!!! JUST LET ME TELL MY STORY!!!

๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

But now I wanna know what noodles you were having?!?!?!

OMG — we’ll come back to that later! Okay?!?!?!

๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ lol… okay?!

So, we were having noodles… and then. Like it’s been playing the whole time but I only noticed after we ordered and we’re sitting there waiting for the noodles, and I was like, “omg they’re playing Jay Chou! Early 2000s!!! Oh, this is so nostalgic!” 

๐Ÿ˜ (He’s trying not to laugh out loud, just smiling and nodding… and trying not to interrupt!)

And then, my sis-in-law was saying like, “every restaurant we go to in Sunnybank that’s Chinese or Taiwanese owned is always playing early 2000s Jay Chou!”

Then my brother said, “That’s because they’re practically all owned or managed by Millennials now! We just choose Jay Chou as a default playlist!!!”

Especially the early 2000s!!! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

๐Ÿ˜ (still nodding and smiling… waiting for… more to the story?)

You can laugh now. That was my story.

๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ THAT’S the whole story?!?!??! That’s not a story!!! What happened to Billie Eilish?!?!

๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€ Nothing happened to her!!! I didn’t get to her concert yet!!!

๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

Why is this so funny?!

What was ur point to that story?! ๐Ÿคฃ

My POINT was — exactly what my brother said!!! — Almost all the restaurants — Chinese or Taiwanese owned or managed — have Chinese or Taiwanese MILLENNIALS running them! And we LOVE. TO LISTEN. TO EARLY 2000s JAY CHOU.

๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ That literally means nothing to me!!!

NOW YOU KNOW HOW “I FEEL” WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT YOUR GENRE AND YOUR COWORKERS IN YOUR INDUSTRY!!!!!!
