Well, you are just not capable of getting it then and that’s on you! It doesn’t change the fact, though, that some people are transgender. Although, I agree when it comes to sex, there’s only two genders, but this is about gender identity and not biological sex.

Well, transgender people are born that way. Depending on how you define biological, they might qualify as such. Obviously, if it comes down to reproduction, there’s only two genders, but transgender people are real. They do exist and I honestly don’t understand why there’s such a fuss about it. Take Thailand, for example, no one gives a flying f.ck and that’s the way it should be everywhere.

Of course there’s a limit to how long you can be a tourist. At least there used to be. It’s 6 months per year, a.k.a. a triple entry tourist visa. I think there’s also a 3x3 month family visa thing. Not a 100% on that one, though. Also, just because there’s corruption in Thailand doesn’t mean that all of them are corrupt and the law is the law and a lot of people have been abusing it. So every now and then you have to deal with stuff like the OP.

It does make sense, if you operate under the assumption that he thought he’s gonna get ripped off.

They do want you, but they do also want tourists to stick to the visa rules and let’s face it, there’s way too many people who abuse it to stay illegally or not in accordance with the law in Thailand, hence the suspicion! But somehow that always gets overlooked by people who complain about being treated like ““criminals!“

Why are people so stupid? If anyone I don’t know asked to see my money my response would be eff off!

Underwater photography and videography is an extra course you can take. Some diving schools offer a combination of let's say a photography and a buoyancy course. The truth of the matter is that buoyancy and managing your body in a way that you can get close to something without bumping into it isn't exactly easy as it is, especially because you also almost always have a current. Carrying a camera effects your buoyancy because it effects your center of gravity. I never took a camera course, but I definitely accidentally bumped into stuff when I did my open water course. There's no way I could've also filmed at the same time! I was busy enough just trying to not bump into the coral wall. That's why you should have mastered your buoyancy and body control first before you start doing underwater photography. Also, given how long it takes for corals to grow back, especially in the age of massive coral bleaching, I'm all for protecting them.

Nah, mate! It’s clearly you who doesn’t get it/doesn’t want to get it!

There was absolutely no need to kill the snake. Everyone and their dog knows what a king cobra looks like. Also, kings cobras usually make a major fuss when you get near them, which tells me that she might have been trying to kill the snake for food and in the process got bit.

Again, it does not have a bad connotation when they use that word and any negativity that you perceive is just in your head. I don’t know how to express that any clearer! You have two options, you can either accept it the way it is or you can get all riled up and bent out of shape over it and let it make your life miserable. Your choice!

Ok, keep whining and b*tching about a non existent issue that’s all in your head then…

Exactly! Nestlé is one of the worst companies on the planet.

Yeah, so? Again, it does not have a negative connotation. It's all just in your head. I've been asking numerous Thais of all ages about that word and all of them, independently from each other, have said the same, even that 60 year old, extremely polite female teacher....

Ok, let me spell it out like to a three year old then: the word farang DOES NOT have a negative connotation, while the N-word noat definitely does. Comparing the two is just silly!

No, he is not right! The first caucasians Thais came in contact with were the French. The Thai word for France is prathet farangse, which is were the word farang comes from and it literally just means white person. If that’s offending to you then you’re the problem. It’s that simple. Also, you can’t really complain about being called farang for full ten years when you could have just told them to use your name instead. Have you done that?

All you have to do is cover the end where they cut them off the tree. You can use a plastic bag and a rubber band for that.

The initial dismissal of that case was ridiculous because they had video footage of him hitting her.

Well, Germany eradicated the "backhander" option by rmaking it mandatory to keep record of who it was who inspectied the vehicle and by making them personally responsible for it's compliance with roadworthiness. So, if a car crashes that wasn't roadworthy and the inspector let it pass in exchange for an envelope, the inspector will go to prison.

If the plan is to get deported then by all means, make videos of cops in Thailand that portray them in a bad way! Also, if you don't know what you want to vlog about then how is this endeavor ever supposed to be successful?! Making it on youtube is pretty, tough, these days. The one thing a lot of people seem to like are pranks. You could do that with your better half, if you have one, or a buddy. My recommendation is, to find one thing you like yourself and just keep doing it and upload regularly. If you're lucky one of your videos goes viral and that could be the beginning of your channel taking off. But even then, it's most likely not gonna happen and if it does, it's most likely gonna take years and years before you can live off it. There's also a ton of rules you have to comply with in order to get monetized. If you live in Thailand there's so many things to film. And yeah, there's a lot of travel channels, but it could be Thailand through your eyes, the off-beaten path. Show them the places YOU like, places tourists normally don't get to see because they stick usually to the known attractions. Do your research on these places, mention the information in the vlog and pair that with nice videography and some relaxing music. You also have the option to just record your opinion on current affairs, if that's your thing. Have a discussion about Trump with a buddy that has an opposing opinion to yours. It wouldn't even have to be politics or exclusively politics, just whatever is going on in the world at the time. You could do that on top of travel vlogs ir literally anything else. The world is your oyster, man! Finally, if you want to upload once a week for example, be prepared for this to turn into a full time job because you'll have to edit the videos and that takes forever! Especially, if you choose longer format videos over short format. In regards to equipment, yes you can use your phone to record, a lot of people do, but if you want to film when it's dark also, you need a light, and you will definitely need a computer and lots of external hard drives, especially when you want to film in 4K. There's tons of videos on vlogging equipment on youtube. One more idea, just go and interview expats on what made them move here, what their lives are like here now and how they feel about living in Thailand, what the up-and downsides are. You could even develop a questionnaire and ask everyone the same questions, like Lipton did at the end of the Inside the Actors studio episodes, and don't be shy to put in some silly questions as well that will get funny responses .

It's ime that Thailand introduces a biennial, mandatory, technical compliance inspection for all motorized vehicles, like Germany has, for example.

Don’t you just love it when hateful people are all about being good Christians? Cough*hypocrisy at its best*cough! It’s because of people like her that I wish there was a god because then I could rest assured that she’s gonna rot in hell one day!

Those stairs are extremely steep. Must have been a lot of fun carrying someone up them on a stretcher…

That remark is clearly pro Jews, but of course they cry foul any chance they get. No surprise there. Pffff!

How was any of that surprising to you? That guy is famous for his outrageous and controversial pranks. That’s why YouTube demonetized his entire channel. I always liked his pranks, but he definitely went too far a few times and pulling stunts like this one in different countries can go really wrong. Johnny Somali comes to mind. Although that guy absolutely deserves what he has coming to him in South Korea because he’s an obnoxious c*nt!

They’re perfectly aware of that. You know what else they’re aware of, though? That you can say the exact same thing about Israel, but of course their blinded sheep can’t/don’t want to see that!
