This is brilliant. Watching the desperate lengths some will go to in order to deny that there are people wealthier and happier than them is fascinating.

Yeah sure. That's why there has been a mass exodus of westerners from the country the last couple of years. They left because they were too darn happy!

Still plenty of farang faces round here. Sure, some run home with their tail between their legs after they mess things up here. But plenty more arrive.

The expat demographic is shifting. The old guard may not be so content here any more, but Thailand isn't just a retirement home for horny westerners.

Expats are anybody who's outside their home country.

A term which is a lot less negative than "ALIEN".

What's negative about the word 'alien'?

Expats are anybody who's outside their home country.

Why are Team Miserable so determined to deny that anyone else can be happy in Thailand?

Ok, it didn't work out for you. But that doesn't mean its the same for everyone else.

Yes all of us are earning 100,000. 555

Most people I know earn more than that.

We can do our own survey right here.

Who is happy?

Happy as a pig in poop.

I think perhaps the forum is hoping to shift it's readership from the aging, grumpy and poor demographic to younger, happier expats with a decent income to spend. It's pretty obvious which group advertisers would prefer to reach, after all.

Every poser with an entry-level DSLR calls themself a photographer. They should round up the lot.

Then come for the 'film makers'.

Hilarious thread.

The survey pretty accurately describes the expats I know here in real life. Funny watching the impoverished miseries line up to decry it. Read it and weep, chaps!

I'd move somewhere just like Thailand, but with actual sidewalks (clear ones) and a sense of neighborhood. Where is that?

I guess you could build your own.

Is that the one next to the pizza place?

I'd live like I do now. But I'd have everything I own gold-plated.

No. I'm just one of the 90% or so of British men who never pay for sex.

Weird that people round here seem to think their minority pursuit is the norm.

To quote Robin Williams as Adrian Cronauer,to Sergeant Major Dickerson in Good Morning Vietnam,"You are in more dire need of a blowjob than any white man in history."

Nope.

And it didn't cost me a baht.

As seemingly the only person on the forum who's actually set foot in the bar in question, I'd like to think I'm the real expert here.

It probably is exactly the same.

But she doesn't want the outdoor crap all over the floors indoors.

Sorry - I was referring to Mr Andy's post above yours.

Come on. Even you can figure out the answer to that one.

No. I'm just one of the 90% or so of British men who never pay for sex.

Weird that people round here seem to think their minority pursuit is the norm.

Probably 99% of British men have never paid for sex.

But none of them live or holiday in Thailand.

I'm living proof that you're wrong.

I agree with the part of your post where you say "I should be quiet".

Understanding women is easy. They're just people, not some exotic alien species.

Pretending otherwise is just a refuge sought by the emotionally underdeveloped.

John Grey and the millions that bought the book disagree with you.

I'm aware that there are a lot of people who share your problems, yes.

You know nothing at all about me and are verging on flaming.

You're incapable of understanding women - I know this because you stated as much yourself just up the page there.

Don't you like a bit of humour SB? No, I thought not.

Are you lonely or something? It's a thread about a bar. Stop trying to chat me up.

Yes, I am a bit lonely just now, Mrs Possum is out working, so a debate with you should help me pass the time. Our debates seem to go on long enough.

Please carry on. Oh wait! "chat you up"?? noooooooo, a nice debate would be fine.

Soi Biker why don't you visit Lolita's,Soi 8 to relieve some of that tension?

Because I don't buy sex.

It's a BJ bar so it's not sex. Can go home to the Mrs with a clear conscience [emoji3]

Ah. The Bill Clinton excuse.

I guess a big drawback now is the sterling rate!

Only if your income is in sterling. If it's in baht, you're quids in.
