Do You Often Dream about Meeting Someone from this Forum, in REAL LIFE? Or, might it be your Nightmare?

I suspect that I might have somewhere along the way..... However, I would never think to ask anybody about what forums they are into online....

If the question happened to be raised I'd watch, learn, and listen before commenting....

 

A few years back, it seemed most of the foul, uncouth, bullying/fight provoking ones either dropped off or were culled out... 

 

Most of us on here just reflect the (semi ????) normal among us - sharing life's twisty, slippery, & unpredictable rocky road....Thai drivers and all.....

 

 

 

Where we live there are very few foreigners, and I have asked the question.

Only to be greeted with a blank stare and "what are you on about?"

I think The Olde Bell on Loi Khroi was the last one to hold such an event where you were encouraged, but not forced to wear a name badge with your avatar.

I first met a well known poster on this forum there who turned out to be as kind and warm hearted in real life as their online persona.

I was there ......... nobody dared bring their educated, Chinese, hi-so, earn their own money, stunningly beautiful wives though.

 

Complete cock-fest, I ate as much of the free food as I could, then quickly moved on to the more entertaining girly bars.

 

Caught a flight to Siem Reap last year to party with another member for a week (banned now), the next night Thailand closed it's borders, so only spent one evening smoking pot in the hotel 'pot smoking pavilion' with him before running for the last flight back.

 

Also used to go drinking with Dave2 before he died, evenings in Loi Krow, mornings at the petrol station coffee shop (opposite Mad Dog).

You appear to have a totally opposed memory of these events to my pleasant ones!

 

Maybe you had imbibed too much in the girly bars before your "attendance" or had too much later to properly recall the actual convivial get-togethers with fellow members!

what happened to them.

One was found out having his "missing" wife stuffed in a container at his home, the other was involved with drugs. They were invited to stay in the local prison.

How do you know you havnt met them ? If you have no contact with people possibly, but as its an anonymous forum you could well be talking to one on a regular basis and neither of you know the online persona.

I dont think everyone discusses their online activity with others.

 

I have met one or two over the years and some have become long term friends. Some I have known for many years here but never actually met.

Its also true in my experience that the online persona is not always a true reflection of the real person.

 

Judging a book by it cover (undercover?) comes to mind.

What about the bar in Bangkok where TV members could get discount if they showed they where active on TV some years ago? 

[canthai55]

I say this prayer every night, kneeling beside my bed ...

"Now I lay me down to sleep, a TV member I hope to meet ..."

I've met a couple. One was mutual hate at first site. The other was a diamond in the rough.

There are a couple here who are welcome at our home anytime, you know who you are.

Most people don't like me online due to my brevity. In person I'm actually quite warm.

You are one person who I definitely would never vote for if they ever held another POTY.   Then again,  I am often known to say the opposite of what I really mean. 

I love Cha............... ahhh,  better not go there   ????

 

and oh....... I may be the only one who really met Yinn .     Interesting bloke  broad   ,    person.

There was Yinn?But after the cancellation of poty,she(he) decided to stop trolling.

this forum is like a thai beer,  poured in a tall glass and half filled with ice cubes.   anyone attempting

to make the drink a little stronger is harshly rebuked.   

Yinn , for some reason can not be talked about .

So,   nuff said

Not really, it's all about our personal preferences.

You like to sit in a bar chatting to elderly white guys.

I like to sit in a bar, with young Thai women pressing against me.

I hope not.

Are suggesting that I am a Ladyboy.  I can assure you I am not.  I have had the full set of operations and now go by the name of Ms Fangless!

Yes. What happened to him?

And, what was the difference between Dave and Dave2?

[Kinnock]

There used to be a Thai Visa bar off lower Sukhumvit Road in Bangkok, and I went to the opening where I met several of the regular posters of the time.  They all seemed like nice, decent folk, with no rabid racists, bar girl haters or sex-pats to be seen.  I was slightly disappointed to be honest, everyone seemed so normal.

 

I suspect our on-line characters are as fictional as our on-line names - perhaps an exaggeration of our real character?

And, surely, a simpler and more wholesome life.

 

Not sure how many of us "authors" have attained much fame in life, but what I have found is that the famous people I have met in real life, a large % are a%% (o) and many are big  (  O  )

 

That said, I have met several of the "authors" on this forum dating back many years and have made some good friends.. if you are expecting authors, I think you might find yourself a bit disappointed

Really? or are you saying they look good through your drunken eyes...

 

I have some friends who you really can't tell when they are drunk, no personality change...

 

For the most part, drunks I have seen around are incredibly boring and very repetitive... 

[NoshowJones]

Have to watch what your saying as it would be against forum rules to name any posters, but there is one poster I would like to meet only to ask him why he gives you a "like" for one post, then you give the same opinion on another post and he gives you a "saddo", this sort of thing goes on and on.

He gives reactions to my posts many times and gives me about an equal amount of "likes" and "saddos".

[NoshowJones]

I have met quite a few posters from this forum, and I can honestly say there is not one who I can say I would not be happy to meet again.

oh god heaven's forbid ever meeting any of TV's bar stool judges that think they can run Thailand.

It gives me nightmares just thinking about it .....   Lol

 

 

 

I bet some of them could run Thailand better than your idol.

I was going to say it could have been me, but I live very far away from Chaing Mai. ????

On a bad day, sometimes putting one's self on one's ignore list appears attractive.

I never put anyone on my ignore list, if I don't like anyone, I want to see what they post so I can annoy them.

Sorry. If we meet you're buying.
