Also maybe all Thai women (not just you) after they have had a relationship with one?

reading through your list, it became apparent to me that most of it is what old people hate.

Ok, now add being too reasonable to the TV list.

offensive remark removed.

[Lacessit]

I don't dislike any of those things, because they are completely irrelevant to me.

I do dislike many Thai drivers, but I suspect I am far from alone in that.

BINGO!

[tabarin]

Many of the older people that are on a tight pension or budget, (not all of them!), seem to dislike or hate younger foreigners who live here (on a larger budget).
I come across them regularly as I live here since age 21. Often, those who have larger budgets, encourage me to earn more and stay!

Long story short: there are many bitter foreign people in this country.

I saw that too! Did you see the part underneath that said 'but he ask me to do stuff no lady would ever agree to'?

Why should I share and like other foreigners who come and stay? Disgusting. It is my Thailand, I have stayed here a long time and I am the only one who is accepted and who should be here.

Like Beavis and But (t)-head would say: ha ha ha, you said Thermae, ha ha ha.

 

Haven't been to Thermae in a few years but that is the reason why. that particular time I walked in and then wasn't charmed with the crowd and walked right back out. But got to say the place seems to keep on being an institution as long as I can remember.

I started investing in Bitcoin in 2012-2013. It is still my favorite but I also started investing in $LINK and $REN because I like reading white papers and investing in The Fourth Industrial Revolution.

As long as the BIBs and the family that runs it are making money off of it, it will continue to be there.

You forgot sex.

I always get slammed whenever I mention sex, even though it's what we're all here for.

I am starting to believe more and more this is not true.

It is for you, me, and others but am surprised how unimportant it is to so many.

Don't know if it is impotency, lack of confidence or lack of funds but is a low priority for many.  Seems they would much rather suck down 10 beers then enjoy female company.

i worked with a guy in 2011 and he wanted me to get into btc with him back then. i didn't understand any of it at the time. told him hey what if i give you 100 can you buy me some coins. could of had like 10 coins or something. ????

 

 

i got in at around 7k and have averaged since. plan on building it over the coming years and will pass to my son when he finishes university. 

[swissie]

An amazingly long list (lists) of dislikes. Time to do something about it:

- The Royal (British) Navy sould re-take Hong Kong and on the way home take Thailand and establish British Rule. Everybody happy. Farangs as well as Thais.

[HandsomeTallFarang]

Who knows? I would classify myself as financially independent, extended stay tourist who will probably get a Thai elite visa once I turn 35.

 

This forum just attracts a lot of bitter guys in general. Have a drink and relax, guys!

Groupthink* can cause conformity:

Irving Janis described the eight symptoms of groupthink:

• Invulnerability. Members of the group share an illusion of invulnerability that creates excessive optimism and encourages taking abnormal risks.
• Rationale. ...
• Morality. ...
• Stereotypes. ...
• Pressure. ...
• Self-censorship. ...
• Illusion of Unanimity. ...
• Mind Guards.

The Trump-Russian Collusion hysteria was a prime example of Thaivisa groupthink. Any praise of President Trump was met with intense vitriol - which was accepted as being the norm.

Yeah and once that hoax got exploded, they just moved on without apology to all the members they slurred. There are some guys that never post anything else other than Trump stuff on a thai life Board, what's with that? Wrong facts, wrong law, wrong place.

 

I dare say that one of them will come along here just to figure out a way to diss me, you wstch. I got one or two guys that follow me around waiting for me to make any comment whatsoever in the news sections so they can call me deplorable or whatever playground insult is de rigueur in that gang. it's kind of amusing, especially since they're on my ignore list. You truly have to be dedicated to whatever Silliness is in your head to go shout at people who don't listen and don't respond. maybe they do it for the applause of their compatriots. Sort of like the Democratic debates.

I just find it completely boring talking to prostitutes .

Same limited conversations every night and most of the time, they just lie all the time .

  You are paying them and they are playing you .

You want sex and she wants money and it gets rather repetitive after a few "conversations" and I do find it rather difficult to talk to people, when they are blatantly lieing to me .

  And you would need to be intellectually lacking or desperate for company to want to have them as company .

  They are very superficial relationships, however short and I have better things to do than listen to someone lying all night long and acting, pretending to be someone that they're not and with the concern that they could suddenly have a psycho turn .

   Not for me

Until I read the line "You want sex and she wants money" I was not sure if you were talking about Bar Girls or Politicians.
