I knew what it was as soon as you gave the affirmative on Taiwan, I had to give the muppets a kick up the rear end to put them in the right area or they would have been floundering about for days, besides that, I wasn't bothered about guessing it as its the taking part that counts.

"Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!" as in "if the shoe fits...." In this thread, I've often led Catfish, et all, to the 'promised land'. In this case he could really... 'Taiwan' on!...sodaspeke!

"taiwan on"? even if applying the most pidgin or whatever pronounciation i do not quite get what that's supposed to mean

Hint: this is surely being used in Taiwan sodaspeke , if looking a bit different.

@Jim: No.

@Jim: No.
To "Tie one on" is to have a party! ie get plastered
 
Verb
tie one on (third-person singular simple present ties one on, present participle tying one on, simple past and past participle tied one on)

(idiomatic, colloquial, dated) To drink alcohol excessively, to the point of being drunk
Does your puzzle hold fluid or dry material?
