CalicoConsulting Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Some of us were fleeing the scene long before we moved to Thailand. Maybe that's part of why we wound up here. Or maybe I just need another beer. If I can see the ###### thing. I hate my eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sensei Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 When you buy pirated movies and softwares When you photocopy copyrighted books... and... When you plagiarize without shame... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalicoConsulting Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Actually, I've actively encouraged people here in Asia to plagiarize all the books I've had published in the USA. First in China, then in Thailand. When I decided to put the material from my classes and lectures online, I went back and cited my sources because I, too, had been plagiarizing. But if anybody asks, I deny posting this message. It's all lies! Someone who is not Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ercorn Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 When you know which 7/11 you can buy a beer at between 2-5pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billd766 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 When you know which 7/11 you can buy a beer at between 2-5pm When you go to the shop next door because you KNOW you can get a cold beer cheaper. When you go to Villa, look at the selections and marvel, then look at the prices and wonder why a melon costs 10 times the price charged in the local market.

Crow Boy Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 when you walk into any toilet and dont notice the cleaning lady mopping the floor whilst one takes a leak. When you walk into any toilet and don't care about the lady mopping the floor while you take a crap When you walk into the toilet and don't freak out when some guy starts to massage you neck and back while you are taking a leak. when you no longer think it strange when the lady in the toilet starts to scrub it with foaming cleanser just as you start to take your leak When the guy in the toilet hands you a hot face towel he keeps in the rice cooker, puts his hand out for a tip, then puts the towel back in the rice cooker for the next patron. When you no longer think it odd to see two small kids in the toilet doing their homework while their parents run their family business there.

kat1 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 When entering a house you walk out of a pair of flip-flops without breaking your stride. (poetry in motion!) When you have gone through calling Tesco - 'Tesco', then 'Lotus' and finally 'tut'. When, on your 3-year old daughter's birthday (a Tuesday school night for example), you hire a karaoke system and position the 6 large speakers into one enormous one and then set the volume to '11' (10 being maximum), and then sing badly until 2am. When living next door to the above, despite the window panes vibrating and the bass booming in your chest, you can go to sleep......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crow Boy Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 When the Thai wife discovers to her distress that she is Uaan Mark Mark because she has hit 43 kg and has to go on a diet When you buy a new toilet brush and the TW uses it to clean the cooking pots because she thinks the little stand for it is cute When you cringe everytime a tourist orders a beer SingHaaaa or a CHung When you not only don't care that the girl at 7-11 hands you a straw for your can of beer but you actually use it. When you don't mind that the beer vendor has poured the beer into a plastic bag full of ice, sticks a straw in it and hands it to you so that he can collect the can You know that you have been in Thailand too long when you discover that not only do the Mia Yai and the Mia Noi know each other but are actually related and compare notes about your personal habits. You definitely know you have been in Thailand too long when the Mia Yai and the Mia Noi join forces to beat up on the new Mia Noi Noi because they think that more than two wives is too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kat1 Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 .......you check to see if it is Wednesday before clipping your toe nails. .......you have stopped asking 'why?' .......the lady cleaning the floor gives you a neck massage while you are at the urinal. ........it makes sense to visit the 'black magic' man. ........you prefer the Thai-dubbed version of the movie.
