  1. When I transfer money to people I noticed it always has an odd amound of satang at the end. Like 14,515.37. When you type this it doesnt add the decimal point so you end up transfering 145,000 to them. It is possible to manually add the dot but the defaul is to automatically miss it. Just another thing to look out for.
  2. The large square. Must be a new feature.
  3. Remember she is the enemy. A burden and a huge drain on your finances. She has her family and she will marry the government. You have nothing and no one looking out for you. Anything that does so much mental and financial damage would normally be described as a parasite. Keep the go bag ready.
  4. Treat her like dirt she will like it. Keep the go bag ready.
  5. I cant work the gas cooker. So zero.
  6. Yam mama. But it will give you diarrhea for 3 days.
  7. The restaurants smell like urine and are covered in flies. The staff look like they haven't smiled in years. Suwanipoom airport has some of the worst airport staff I have experienced. Chang Watana immigration gave me a disease. Doctor's letter and 5 days off. Not exactly the land of smiles.
  8. Wow a unicorn plushie and tiny pink dresses. Thats how to attract the male expats.
  9. And on your left, food being sold next to an open sewer.
  10. UK schools study for 6 hours from 9 to 3. Thai schools study 12 hours from 6 to 5. Yes the first hour is for the flag and the Thai song. Then they have an hour of announcements. But its worse than that because students have to leave the house at 5am. Then there is the traffic jam, school vans and busses. It is common now to have students living at the school 24/7 in condos and accomodation supplied by the school. So there we have it. Many students as young as 14 live at school. I have personally seen this. These freaks live at the school. Some of them go home for the weekend. I see kids sleeping in the classroom Some sitting upright but their eyes closed. Some have headaches. The Thai education hours are child abuse. Walking into school with a megaphone screaming you are late in your ears. Not to mention the worthless crap they learn. How to be a soldier and march in the heat for 4 hours. How to hold a sign up for the crowd art photos in the baking sun 6 hours. How to give money to a monk 3 days. How to sweep a floor (girls only).
  11. The quality is disgusting. I never realized how good British fresh baked bread, real cream cakes and soft pastries are until I moved here. We joke about British food but is this what it is this up against? Floor scrapings in a bag sprayed with chemicals. 90 percent of the Thai stuff is just a joke. 5 slice sandwiches with no filling. Sickly sweet 'sausages'. Bizzare burgers. Spray on cheese. I guess the hard boiled egg is safe. Nothing weird about that.
  12. Flash the cash and they will fall at your feet.
  13. The International textbooks are very flawed though. Special Programs and English Programs are better in terms of professional English. EP, Special Program: How to write a resume and cover letter, how to write a 5 paragraph essay in many forms and on many topics, how to use APA formatting, how to write letters and emails, how to speak in a range of situations, acting and drama. How to read a graph. How to make and give presentations. Improptu speaking. Also many other subjects taught fully in English. The books are clean and modern. Very easy to use with full online support. International: women are good here is a list of 3 athletes and a nurse. Africans are poor, lets read this 8 page article. I swear one page got the continents of the world wrong. We did a 2 hour lesson on how sitting down increases your chance of dying. We sat for the full 2 hours no break. International English is more about politics than English skills. And the books are so messy. Its like page 5, 6, 7, 8 reading, questions on page 2 and 9. So frustrating.
  14. To be born British is to win first prize in the lottery of life. What can I say? We invented the Westminster System, The Magna Carta and democracy. Not sure what America did with it after that.
  15. 1 - Money 2 - The latest phone so you can... 3 - Install all the major bank apps.
  16. Thailand will win the dirty tables, mediocre food, open sewers and the smell of urine prize. Watch out Manila.
  17. Was at the bus stop, it was 4pm. A little greasy Thai man scooted along on a child size bicycle and stoped infront of me. "You! You! What you do here?? You stand in front of my house. Why!!" An old lady pokes her head out from the gate. I said sorry and walked down the road a bit and he scooted on. Never too late.
  18. They tell you what to do. It is their job.
  19. AI please shuffle this paper, leave the counter closed for four hours, lose the documents, not speak English and take bribes. I think AI can manage it.
  20. The crime is trespassing not rape.
  21. You will be looking at the back of a toilet door for weeks. Bring a good book.
  22. I don't the sex worker has any interest in tricking you into a relationship.
  23. I just try to 30 baht's worth of damage everyday. A few toilet rolls, lean against a hand dryer, throw trash on the ground. Taxes work both ways.
  24. Treat her like a worthless maid and make sure she knows her place. Keep the go bag on standby so you can leave at any time. Allow her to experience the good life so you can snatch it away at any point. It's the only way.
