I assumed the role of a foreign worker visiting talkingcock.com and I personally would say that I wouldn't understand anything if I were a foreigner. There was a lot of hokkein, and other local jokes that foreigners would not understand. Whether they would need to understand it would be a different thing because some of the jokes were old, or were just funny at that point in time.
On my own, I do enjoy talkingcock.com because I feel it gives me a little bit of a laugh and some insight into the local news that I might have missed. Like the blog wars between Xiaxue and DawnYang, I only knew after I saw it there. I also bought talkingcock the movie when it came out years ago, and had a few good laughs with it.
Another person has replied me on the forums! The person says that "in the internet you CAN bury your head under the sand", pointing out that you dont need to listen to what everyone says to you on the internet, and its a matter of standing up for yourself and not caring if people don't agree with you.
