  1. Easy. They see you as being so far below them, they don't really care what you say or do.
  2. That's not even slightly what I said. Gee, I have no idea why you would completely lie about what I said just because you don't like it. Oh wait, yes I do! 🤦‍♂️
  3. Business plan Thai style: "I see there are some of these businesses here, I will copy them."
  4. Yeah, it's got a real, "I was OK with it at the time, as I felt like I was getting something from [insert rich/famous/powerful person], but now that I'm not getting anything, I suddenly want to say that it was criminal" feel to it. As these things so often seem to have.
  5. What was the trick? Isn't that the main point of this?
  6. Not him, but it is interesting to consider what his avatars say about him. His previous one was an overweight bald man gurning in an equally weird way. Seeing as his comments are typically designed to aggravate others, it would seem he has a theme. They seem to suggest he would like to get close to people's faces and scream at them, which is kind of what his comments do. Sort of a, "I want to mess with people" kind of vibe.
  7. Could it be about fame???
  8. like any post by liverpool lou Not quite. While Liverpool Lou would like to correct everyone else, all he does is disagree with everyone else, usually without being correct.
  9. but why no helmet? He has no idea. He's just trying to rationalise something done by Thai people to defend them, with (very much his calling card) a little bonus dig at foreigners. 🤦‍♂️
  10. The use of quotes suggests that someone else says this and he is repeating it. He likely doesn't agree.
  11. I think it's more that they look Thai, but with light skin and pointy nose. When Thais get skin whitening and nose implants, it's more about looking like a different kind of Asian than looking "farang".
  12. They're Thais. It isn't the same with foreigners. We aren't really considered to be fully human to most Thais. It can happen, occasionally, with Thais that you get to know well, you can get a fraction of the treatment that a Thai will get. A good question, and one that any expat should ask themselves regularly.
  13. It's probably simply something like, they like Thailand, they are nice to Thai people, contribute a lot to the Thai economy, but still have to suffer a lot of discrimination and racism, so it's kind of like, observing that they are reaping what they sow. 🤷‍♂️
  14. The guy gave you a hug. Isn't that a friendly, nice thing to do? 🤗
  15. So close to saying something sensible, then you just revert back to, "Other foreigners bad. Me good."
  16. Many Thai people don't seem to understand how tourism works. They seem to feel a great sense of entitlement when it comes to foreigners, with no thought about what they should offer in return. They learn "Thai Supremacy" at school, so it's pretty much drummed into them from a young age.
  17. As I said the other day, he's a chicken if he doesn't follow through, and he's evil if he does. They just say whatever they can to criticise Trump, with no care if they contradict the exact previous thing that they just said.
  18. Where's the data for the effect of the covid year long shut down? That should show how much of a difference cutting CO2 dramatically can have.
  19. He probably thought you were gay and was trying to make a move. Some locations become known as gay meetups where gay guys do gay stuff together. Not really anything to worry about. Forget about it and move on with your life. Possibly look into the fact that you may be a little homophobic.
