I once told a girlfriend "when I get home from work I expect you to have my meal ready, my clothes laid out and the bath full of hot soapy water. And do you know who will comb my hair and trim my nails?"
She replied "The undertaker ".
Stop forcing me to drink..
been hitting the pubs a lot recently and i gotz thinking about something interesting. everyhwere i go the waiter or waitrss wants me to buy beer.. but not asking in like a casual sense, like a forceful gesture and when you say no they turn their noses up at you and walk away. i will however sit there and eat no issue. whats the deal? why am i being shamed into buying beer when im not eben thirsty? all i wanna do is eat, not have a dang booze up. leave me alone and let me eat quietly. sheesh
Filipino take the greed of money to a whole new level.
A Thai will take you to the shopping mall so you can buy her gold.
A Filipino will take you to the shopping mall so you can buy her a shopping mall.
In the real world my name is Phillip, which Thai's manage to butcher to "Piwlip".
Even Phil comes out as Piw.

Occasionally I still get called Piw.
The nearest island to me is about a thousand ks away, but it's quite remote which I really like.
To answer your question, they don't care about a farang mooching around. They welcome me with open arms, and look at me funny.
The plot is a bit thin, but at least we can follow it.
Bob leaves his misses to sort his visa dramas out while he finds some lovely 23 year old in a bar with an American who has dosed off. She takes him by the hand and they escape to a romantic island. She offers to bash him up so he buys her a pink G-string, and all is forgiven. He then sips champagne and eggs with her at 8am.
So... Bob then...
A.. Falls in love and lives happily ever after.
B. The misses catches up with him and he falls from a balcony.
C. The American suddenly appears and the plot thickens.
D. Bob buys a chicken farm and retires.
