  1. Don't get your knickers in a twist?

    The "be dismissive and patronizing and pretend someone is upset when they point out an error in a calm fashion" brigade!

    The art of the subtle put down.

    Condescension is the master of all such arts, all the more enjoyable when it goes over your protagonists' head - especially if they think you are making some kind of compliment.

  2. One of those ''s''uckers hid in my gardening hat yesterday. I put on the hat and yes, bite, big lump on my bonce. The bar stuards are hard to kill too, keep coming back.

    I really hope they are an endangered species. thumbsup.gif

    I'm definitely getting slow in my old age.... I actually googled bar stuards to discover what type of creature this was - before (eventually) the penny dropped! tongue.png

    laugh.png , been told off here lately so l work around stuff. laugh.png
  3. I really like the Tiger. thumbsup.gif

    Me too, but the Tigers in the 200,000 baht price range are pretty rough from what I have seen.

    Good luck with your truck Muratremix.

    I use to own the Tiger for 7 years...I've sold it 2 years ago,but from what I see available for sale now,the price hasn't drop at all...amazing! It is an opinion,that that was the best build Toyota truck model so far....you can probably buy a '05 Vigo cheaper than '03-'04 Tiger...smile.png

    Remember that the Vigo may not look as butch as the Tiger but the Vigo has a far stronger chassis. thumbsup.gif
  4. I know at least 10 different families with either half thai half western or full western babies and kids. Each family reacts differently to the general Thai culture of giving the babies/kids a lot of attention. A few very directly tell people that they don't want their kids touched. Others don't mind and others used to mind but have compromised. Ultimately its up to you. I don't think it's a problem if you say that you don't want your baby touched. I think that most Thais mean very well and look kindly on kids but of course how you and your kid feels is what is important.

    As for the cheek grabbing and pinching - that used to happen to me as a child in Australia and I still don't get why adults used to like doing that to me as it bloody well hurt.

    My mrs does that to me now w00t.gif , she says l smell like a baby. sad.png

    Is that before or after she changes your nappy.

    After, think it the talcum powder. thumbsup.gif

  6. Why show compassion with a person, you have never met? To me the RIP-posters here are just doing it for their own "feeling decent and good". I couldn't care less if someone, i didn't know had died or not. When I die, I don't expect any RIP's, and it really doesn't matter. There are hundreds of people dying in Thailand every day, but normally the ones reported here are about people from our own race/tribe.

    My a suggest a special RIP-subforum here on Thaivisa, so all you PC guys can RIP all day long, and I promise you, that insensitive posters like myself will stay away!

    How many people in the world?

    7 Billion...give or take a few?!

    How many people died in the 9/11 attacks?

    4.000?

    So it is very safe to say that almost NO ONE knew any of these guys, so stop memorial services, right?!

    WW2?

    I don't know anyone who died there...not even my grandparents... and I am German!

    So...puleaze stop rememberance day parades, right?!

    Such a waste of time, such hollow phrases!

    Do you want me to go further?

    Do you know any jewish people???

    By the way: I apologize, IF you knew any of these people.

    I didn't mean to hurt you personally!

    Why?

    It is called EMPATHY!

    I suggest, you google that, because I doubt that you know that word!

    Twonk. rolleyes.gif

    Before I start googeling "Twonk"...what does that mean?

    It's a Brit slang word that means something my folk will understand. thumbsup.gif Don't care if you understand it cos your a Twonk. rolleyes.gif

    A good word cos doesn't break forum rules eh. thumbsup.gif

  8. The pink-shouldered, veiny old horrors, whose tongue-like bellies dangle disgustingly below the ragged hems of their stained, smelly singlets as they waddle from sleaze hole to sleaze hole pawing desperately at small brown women barely a quarter of their age in the hope of being allowed to pay for a sexual encounter with a being whose level of physical attractiveness is so at odds with their own that any such sexual contact would be practically inter-special in nature, kind of like a hippo shagging a swan brigade.

    Wrong topic. coffee1.gif
