  1. Two main reasons: 1. Russia and China is the new boss in town and they've extremely smart diplomacy. 2. Farangs are getting poorer and Thailand doesn't want tourists, she wants tourists with money.
  2. Business partners. They made big business together smoking big cigar.
  3. The boyfriend left her for a flaming Thai girl, and she went ballistic.
  4. LGBT lobby has nothing to do with gay rights movements of the past. Their goal is not defend gay people rights. Their main goal is dissolve traditional social structure, especially the family. The LGBT lobby is mainly harmful to gay people themselves, in fact so many opponents of this lobby are gay themselves (hard to believe, isn't it?). However, the difference between LGBT lobby and gay movements of the past has been explained well, over two decades, by Thierry Meyssan (homosexual). But I think the Propaganda Machine made you consider him as a "conspiracy theorist".
  5. Hippies killed an alternative way of living. Feminist movement created women sexualization. LGBT movement will be destructive for gay people.
  6. i hope that the Thailand way won't be crazy and degenerated like in the United States.
  7. It's official, even historians get drunk
  8. The goal is voluntarily lock you in the room. You'll drive your car sitting on the armchair.
  9. We can close this thread, it's long now and people, rightly, don't read the previous comments. After 90 comments, I understood that, perhaps based on the civilization of origin, on the anthropological process or more simply on the basis of one's individual character, for some groups of people greeting is a sign to express friendliness, for others it is a symptom of harassment, for still others it's simply unimportant. It's good to know different approaches to social relationships. Thank you all.
  10. If I felt superior, would I say "sawadee" to a stranger? Think a moment. Also, thank you for telling us that you bathe regularly(is it a strange?). But what does it have to do with it? I really have trouble understanding the way of thinking. However, I agree with the fact that they couldn't want to waste time talking to strangers (even Thais, not just foreigners). This is understandable.
  11. Are you saying, between the lines, that Thais are eternal children?
  12. I hope they don't really believe that China will buy all their export surplus. But I'm pretty sure they are thinking about it.
  13. Mate, you remind me of that clerk in a computer store in Rome. I asked him "can you recommend me a cheap notebook to use on the go, I already have a PC at home" and he said "come, I'll show you the new Macbook". You guys go too far!
  14. In fact, now that you point it out, those who weigh the greeting usually are those from 30-40 years old. The young and old don't mind responding to a 'sawadeekrub" or "good morning." I myself have recently passed the 30 and it seems strange to me. But in reading the comments in this thread, I found that some people consider a basic greeting as harassment so, there is no end to surprise.
  15. Nah, I don't think it's about racism. It's more avoid contact and interaction with strangers. They don't just do it with me, I've noticed that it's like that between Thais as well. They seem totally indifferent to the presence of others.
  16. You're in an elevator, you say hi and they don't respond. They are sitting next to you, you greet them and they don't respond. Some people always seem stressed, what's their problem? Is their jaw to heavy?
