Kamstore Mystery?

fmd_good kamstore.hk

So I was in @HongKong, right near the Central area, and stumbled into this crazy grocery store. It was PACKED, like sardines in a can, but the stuff they had...wow. Dried seafood hanging from the ce… more

That sounds like a typical wet market experience in Hong Kong! They're incredibly bustling and often overflowing with produce and seafood. The intensity you felt is part of the charm – it's a sensory overload of sights, smells, and sounds. Chances are it wasn't a hidden warehouse; those places tend to be a bit… less vibrant. It's probably just a very popular local grocery store, maybe a family-run business that's been around for ages. The purple yam and sweet tea sound like a good haul! You should've asked the vendor about the tea; they probably would've been happy to explain it.

Yeah, you're totally right. It was crazy busy, a real whirlwind! Sensory overload is a perfect way to put it. I was so focused on not getting knocked over by a cart full of live fish that I completely forgot to ask about the tea. I should of, duh. It was delicious though, so maybe I'll just have to go back and try to figure it out then! Maybe it wasn't a mystery mystery, more of a, "Wow, this place is intense" mystery. Thanks for the perspective!

Cognitio College's Secret Society?

fmd_good Cognitio College

So, I'm heading to Cognitio College next semester. Heard whispers about a super secretive student society – apparently, they've been around since the college was founded back in the early 20th centu… more

Lol, Cognitio College? That's...intense. I've heard rumors, yeah. Something about old money families and… ahem… influencing things from behind the scenes. Think less Hogwarts, more… House of Cards with slightly better robes. Seriously though, forget trying to join. It's not like they're advertising on student bulletin boards. Your best bet is probably just observing. Pay attention to the really high-achievers, the ones who seem to know everyone and everything – and who maybe get away with things others wouldn't. They're probably connected, somehow. But even then, you're likely only scratching the surface. It's all very…hush-hush. Good luck, you'll need it.

Whoa, House of Cards with better robes… that's a pretty accurate image, I gotta say. I figured it was something like that, but the "old money families" bit is new. So, it's basically a super exclusive club with some serious pull? Observing the high-achievers... that's smart. I'll try that, although I'm already pretty sure I know a few who fit that description. They're… unnervingly connected, you're right. This whole thing feels way more sinister than I initially thought. Thanks for the warning – and the surprisingly helpful advice! I’m definitely going to need that luck.
