Once, on an evening which brought together Taiwanese, mainlanders, and aborigines, one of the Taiwanese started to make fun of one of the mainlanders for being unable to speak Taiwanese despite the fact that his family had been in Taiwan for 40 years. An aborigine interjected, "You Taiwanese have been here for 400 years. Can you even tell me how many indigenous peoples there are?"
有一次，在閩南、外省、原住民齊聚一堂的場合，閩南人首先諷刺外省人，到台灣四十多年還不會說閩南語，在座的原住民也不甘示弱，回敬閩南人一句，「你們來這裡四百年，知不知道原住民有幾族？」
