I got 2 weeks on arrival every time I went, no VISA required.
Didn't see any Russians in 7 visits.
Never had a problems ordering food or beer, and the ladies I encountered all spoke English.
I've read ZERO ONE Two, they are written for the weak.
Hang on, I did read how to load your own ammo and cast bullets.
And how to make soap.
TEOTWAWKI is coming!
Unless his first rule is .......... 'never trust the woman in your bed' ....... he's an idiot.
Made it to rule 4, utter tosh ............
PS. His eyes, either insane or a speed freak.
PPS.
Rule number 1: You don't talk about Fight Club.
Not that big a deal IMHO.
In UK government school you get to mix with Pakistani, Somali, Syrian, Portuguese, Polish kids all the time. (To name but a few)
It tells me they associate with prostitutes ................
Along with 'heart talk', never heard any Thai that isn't a hooker using heart talk.
Rule 1 of Thai language,
Never repeat the 'special words' used almost exclusively by Thai prostitutes ...............
You're also making a false equivalency in racial slurs.
'farang' and 'Asian-foreigner' are in no way equivalents.
But I'm not going to post the equivalent slur for Thais as I don't want to be banned from the forum.
I would have no problem with anyone calling me the 'Brit man', but I strenuously object to any terms grouping me with the French or the Germans.
If there had been 1,000 universities on the list, Thailand would have ranked as 997th out of 1,000.
47th place out of 50 isn't really that big a boast!
As far as I can see the property laws in Thailand aren't all that different to the property laws in the west. As a male if you marry or cohabit in the west, she owns at least 50% of the property if not all.
I'd be temped to sack all the staff and padlock the gates.
Then run an advertising campaign at next election time for new representatives, with the promise to re-hire and re-open when the act is repealed.
I've had lots of pets, they lived a life of ease, no unspeakable suffering for them.
Can't say my parents/grandparents lived lives of unspeakable suffering either.
For me,
A few sad times, some dull periods, but nothing ever unspeakable.
