10-6-2023 (TAIPEI) A netizen recently shared a surprising photo on social media, capturing a scene of a woman sitting on the back of a motorcycle at a traffic light in Taipei City. The woman, sporting a ponytail, appeared to be wearing only a towel, prompting many online users to exclaim, “Either she’s taking a shower or on her way to take one!”
The photo was posted on the Facebook page “Observations on the Road” and initially seemed like an ordinary snapshot of a red light stop. However, upon closer inspection, it became evident that the woman on the motorcycle’s pillion seat was seemingly draped in nothing but a towel, leading the original poster to caption it as “On the way to take a shower.”
The photo quickly sparked discussions among netizens. Some speculated that she must have been in a rush, saying, “Looks like she left in a hurry,” or suggesting, “Maybe her water heater broke, and she’s heading to her boyfriend’s place to shower.” Others found the situation quite amusing, commenting, “This is something you’d only see in a dream,” or jokingly suggesting, “She must be in the middle of a transformation as a Sailor Moon character, but the magic malfunctioned.” Some playful theories included, “She started showering but suddenly decided to leave,” “If her home has no water, she had no choice but to find a bathroom outside,” and “She’s not taking a shower; she’s en route to one.” Speculations even emerged about the nature of her attire, with comments like, “That should be a piece of clothing, just made of an interesting material,” and “She wants attention, but she’s going about it the wrong way.”
In addition, keen-eyed netizens noticed a large red bow tied to the woman’s helmet, raising suspicions about the peculiar scenario. Some humorously speculated, “You got it wrong; didn’t you see the bow on her helmet? She’s someone’s birthday present, and the one in front is the delivery person,” or humorously suggested, “Regretting halfway through unwrapping a gift?” and “Looks like someone en route to deliver a gift! There are ribbons on her head.”
