Stupid Farrang

[MadFrankie]

probably not.. Buy yerself a dictionary and then you can no for sure

[anamore]

There are so many things to be amazed at/about in Thailand in both positive and negative maner.

But the things you name are none of your business and don't affect you in any way, so:

Let people be and do their own way. It's their money and their life.

[Chaamman]

Quite a few have not answered, not surprising, difficult to admit that you are a stupid farrang.

I assume the ones that did not answer are a little guilty.

Lets go to another question.

How many that have taken on BG's have had them checked for all those nasty transmitted things as well as the big HIV????

At least you know you are safe so therefore only have to put up with the stigma of being a chump.

jaysus...three pages of replies to an obnoxious thread initiated by someone that most of us know to be a <deleted> from previous posts...

give it up...

[ThaiPauly]

Agreed, what people do with their lives is up to them, who knows the circumstances, this guy may be old and loaded, perhaps he does not give a toss if he gets the clap, dont tell me ANYONE is oblivious as to the Russian roulette you play when having unprotected sex. He made his choice so leave him be.

I suggest this thread is closed, we all have better things to do.

[bangkokblue]

Which bar girl is stupid enough to have unprotected sex with a farang?

Maybe a beach freelancer in Pattaya, or an innocent just in from Issaan, but no bg that I know. (And that is more than several )

Then in your case, a few is 3 and several 4+ the later being somewhat near my personal findings of 1 in 4, all descriptions accounted for and last decade inclusive.

maybe the normal grown up members are tired of the pointless crap that you come out with.

why do you bother? live and let live!

if you want to slag off a mans wife etc, have the balls to do it in person.

[Up2U]

But whatever people think, for the record, it does not really happen more in Thailand than in other countries.

I once mentioned on a thread that I was curious to see some statistics. I also believe it's no worse here than in some other countries.

Did you know that 95% of all statistics are made up on the spot?

Which spot?

I've got lots of spots from having unprotected web-sites from Chamaan.

In my experience the sad people that come here go the whole hog and buy houses and even marry them, astonishing.

Why me asks?????

Thailand is full of honest decent women, thats why the Thais are heard to say many times "stupid farrang".

i bought my house, i did'nt marry it.

Are'nt you bored yet, why don't you people make up your own forum then you can slag all the happy people off to your hearts contnent.

[stroll]

I take it that neither chaamman nor proussie (a gay couple from Hua Hin?) are regulars in Dave's bar...

"I assume the ones that did not answer are a little guilty."

Another wind-up shot into the dark...

I haven't replied yet because the answer is so obvious, and it seems to me the first 5 'crimes against humanity' you mention are committed by first time holiday makers who don't know any better, and don't deserve any better, one might argue.

Whether it's all so stupid lies in the eyes of the beholder, but it does make for amusing conversations, albeit wearing a bit thin over time.

it amazes me that nobody can reply to questions posted asking advise, yet crap like this gets 3 pages?????????

Dr Pong,

Great musical taste, Moonlight Gambler by Frankie Laine. Been so long forgot how to spell his name, but the song is still a good one.

My dad loved it and used to play it often.

Great thing the "Engrish langwidge" you can screw it, mangle it, spell it wrong yet it still survives.

I'll tell you the stupidest thing I ever did in Thailand. At the Nana intersection standing at the police booth facing Soi Nana I stepped out into the crosswalk because the light had a walking green man on it. At that moment a speeding car going through the red light ran over me foot and crunched a bunch a me bones in me foot. After that my eyes have been on constant alert when walking near traffic.

All I could hear from others at the scene was, "Farang ngo maak!" Jolly good fun for all!

Farang cha-lart noi...

My stupidest action ever in LOS was late at night on Second Rd, Pattaya. Stopped for some food off a street-side vendor on my drunken staggering towards a bed..

Either way, they messed up my order badly and the food was terrible and I got irritated with them. I sent back what they originally tried to serve me (which was not what I had ordered - I wanted Pak Pat Achet). When they finally got it right they demanded that I paid for both servings...after a short debate I did pay for both plates. I got 5 1-bath coins in change which I (and to this day I cannot understand why) threw away onto the street in some sort of disgust...at least 4 thai guys standing there immediately started to look at each other... mistreating the image of the King in their presence was STUPID and a big NO-NO.

Somehow I immediately realized my mistake (strangely sobering situation) and mumbled Kaw Tohd Khrap and started speed-walking away from there...phew, close call - I coulda been in a world of hurt. I've actually seen guys beaten over tearing up 100-bath bills in discussion over check-bins... STUPID.

Farang cha-lart noi indeed...

Rather than just feeling smugly contemptuous of the 6 farang visitors in the first posting, why don't we give them a 'heads up' in advance. Nearly all will come in via Don Muang Airport. We could rent that big illuminated advertisement board that faces the queue of arrivers who are waiting to show their passports, and put on it a message

"Will all single men please remember that they have come to Thailand

with an erecting penis and a thinking brain, but that

they have only brought enough blood to operate one at once."

The bar girls do generally understand this, I am told, and so realise it is up to them to get that condom out of his pocket and onto his willy. However it would do no harm that our message reminded all women of their vulnerability to the brain-drained.

It amazes me that we can fit pacemakers, but nobody has invented a little unit to be worn on the male forehead that has a green light that turns red when the brain starts to lose out to the penis in the competition for the supply of blood. I believe that ships have a signal flag that they fly that says "I am not under control; approach me, or assume that I will behave according to the proper rules, only at your own risk". This makes the seas much safer. One little light fitted to all boys at puberty would be all that was needed to bring about a much safer world for both sexes.

I have just had a thought. We could maybe get half that board for free. Whatever firm has that board (Asia-Pacifiic Communications or something I seem to remember) would get their message much more remembered if they gave thaivisa.com half the board for my message above. Think how many blokes would take a snapshot of it and e-mail it off to the blokes left back in the office, and how many of them would forward it. And then how many would open up thaivisa.com. It could be the making of the fame of good Dr Pat Porn.

Another thing to remember in addition to throwing away coins, would be that at 3am and while not entirely sober, your language skills are not at their prime so if the food is not what you think you ordered, it may not be their fault. (Seems likely as you write 'Pak Pat Achet' which definitely does not ring a bell with me, and I assume you wrote this at the maximum of your language skills while sober at your computer!! )

(You meant 'phat phak krachet' right? Most often you order this as 'phak krachet fai daeng', as in 'Krachet vegetable set ablaze'. this is where you get this interesting WOOSH of flames when they throw in the vegetabls & oyster sauce in seriously hot oil. Can do this with Phak Boong as well.)

Anyway, even though my language skills are pretty ok by now (about food anyways ) it's still very unlikely I would make any fuss about a mixed up order, especially not at a small food stall where food is 15-30 baht anyway and assuming I kind of like whatever it was they brought instead which is usually the case. Many 'dek-serves' are not the brightest bulbls in the tree either, often not even speaking Thai all that well up here in Chiang Mai, but to make a fuss would DEFINITELY mean that the dek serve gets some of her pay cut. She's probably making 100 baht the whole day, so getting your 25 baht phad phak kracet cut from that is not something I want to do to her no matter how lacking her language or mental skills are..

Sorry for the rant. Carry on. :-)

Cheers,

Chanchao

Yeah, like George W Bush, the Pope and about 5 billion other human beings on this planet. They are all a bit guilty for not answering to your masterpiece of a post.

My two öre: Avoid speaking Thai when heavily on the piss. You mean ผัดผักกระเฉด right - phàd phàg kra?chèed ? I kind of feel sorry for the waitresses here.

Argh, there is nothing worse than being the 'second' wise-ass. Chanchao, you beat me to it...

I have to disagree here Sweetball, about orchestrating verbal skills on the pi##.

When I've had a few my inhabitions go away and I can really 'Poot Thai keng keng'

as they say. Of course there's that fine line where boistrous frivolity and fun turns

into vulgar slurring and staggering. Definitely want to stay on the safe side of that line.

[meadish_sweetball]

Yeah, mbkudu, you have a point there, but it depends on the purpose of the Thai though, right?

Trying to order food, renewing your Non-Immigrant B, talking your way out of a police setup or trying to explain to the wife why you are two hours later home than promised, are all activities better left to slurring English than slurring Thai.

Hey guys...I did post my actions as being stupid!

And now that I think about it I did want to say Pat Pak Achet (the K at the beginning on Achet had indeed escaped me, and excuse my transliteration...being fairly sober at this point... ;-)

Meadish has it right.. and you too Chanchao... the big WHOOSH is mandatory!

Quite possibly I did screw up on the ordering part... so the 2 öre input of Sweetballs is also quite useful for most of us when on the piss.

The thing is, this incident happened 10 years ago and I still feel bad about it. I don't wanna piss people off (even when I'm on the piss I'm normally a mellow guy) - when I'm in LOS I am a GUEST and should behave accordingly... you see where I'm going with this?
