All right Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 13 hours ago, spidermike007 said: I have a very peculiar relationship with most Russians. I know some of the younger ones are more urbane, and more conscious about acting like decent human beings. But most are incredibly cold and distant, and many are very hostile. I think it has alot to do with their Cossack background, and the Stalinist influences. Apparently, from what I have read about Russian history, there was a long period where people were discouraged from being kind or polite to their neighbors. It was considered improper to express kindness to strangers. How to interpret Stalinist principles? You would have to be a madman to understand them. My guess is that it is hard to unlearn decades of cultural brainwashing. Lastly, there is no upside to fighting with a Thai. If you win, you lose. If you lose, you lose. There is no winning! So, just avoid that kind of nonsensical behavior. Of course those of us with common sense do exactly that. Avoid these situations. The others, well this is just not so. This is a very superficial view. The same, if you think that every American is a cowboy, everyone in England eats only porridge, every German is a brewer. The difference between the cultures is. For example, we decided not to greet strangers. I got myself in confusion on Smilansky Islands, a Frenchman from a neighbouring Bungalow greeted me, and I didn't realize. But, about Stalin, now long forgotten. At all other times. Stalin is iron order. And we have managed to survive, after those times, a decade of anarchy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scots over eight years old usually eat it with Tennants Super Strength lager, younger ones stick to Irn Bru.

And we have managed to survive, after those times, a decade of anarchy As I said previously, many of the younger Russians I meet are friendlier, and more sophisticated than many of the older ones. There are always exceptions. But, the number of Russians I have encountered over the past decade who were friendly, or at least decent or civil when greeted by a stranger, asked for directions, or spoken to by a stranger I can count on one hand. I am thrilled to hear that Stalin is long forgotten. Always best to put a rat in the past. Always best to leave behind utter nonsense, and the philosophy of homicidal maniacs.

I'd take them in preference any day to the hard guy tourists from the former commonwealth that stay in the 500 baht rooms with hot and cold running sheets. They can't seem to wrap their head around the fact that they don't have to fight for dibs on the women like they do back home. As if it works there, either.

But, first, 25 - 30 years ago we were taught in talk show on the radio that here's a look at Western people. They are always smiling, telling: "I'm not dangerous." And you frown, thus saying, "don't come, I'm dangerous." It is not correct. It was a simpler time. The youth learned the "science". Secondly, the country experienced the "madness" of the English language. It was the fashion. Consequently, young just can speak English. And third, because of the Internet, to some extent, blurred the boundaries between people. Imagine, for those who welcome to play on the network with the same in other countries. they have produced their own subculture, etc . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Triangle Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I sometimes wish that I could understand what people on here are trying to say, unfortunately a lot of the gibberish on TVF goes straight over my head, not because I'm stupid just because some people don't express themselves too well.

Jim Turner Mad Punx Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 (edited) A stoned man walked into a top dog hot dog joint and thought he ordered a hot link. but what he really said in front of the greasy spoon and three bewildered patrons was "give me a German, a Russian, a frankfurter and a cop" as he read off the menu.
