Just the 6O year old plus man who's only interest in thailand is the fact that he want to bed and impregnate 19 year old girls by paying them small sums of money for sex...as they are poor. 

So are all ages of men who wish to do this "creepy sex predators"?

I was simply asking the user to clarify an ambiguous comment so that their point was clear (if that is what they wanted) to facilitate discussion. 

 

If you choose see that as aggressive or "uncalm", that's up to you.  ????‍♂️

They didn’t want to discuss it with you and you became increasingly aggressive and abusive. Even now, your attitude is less than friendly. 
I guess some of us came to Thailand to get away from people like you. Take it easy. Go with the flow.

What on Earth do you think that I have written that is abusive?!!

She has other attributes I won't go into, and you would be incapable of appreciating, going by your posts thus far.

 

No one will ever know because the only 2 you mentioned are pretty damn shallow even by sexpat standards

This is a thread with regard to Five Things You Love About Thailand. A light hearted conversation in the pub. 
If you kept badgering someone on a subject on which they obviously did not want to expand further in a real pub, you would either end up in a fight or they would just ignore/move away from you. But you are obviously being that obnoxious ‘self’ because you can get away with it on the Internet. 
You are the ‘annoying drunk’ in the pub. Don’t be that person. 
Let it go and get back to light hearted conversation.

Have you spent any time in the UK?  It's wet, grey and miserable for about 9 months a year.  It even seems to rain over Christmas now.

How about your colonial cousins in Canada. Throw in 4 months of ice, snow and sub zero temperatures. July and August acceptable. I remember those times and never to be endured again.

[Skeptic7]

1. Thai food

2. Availability of younger women

3. Cheap cost of living

4. Weather 

5. Chiang Mai

cool. 

I have often wondered why so many foreigners drive motorbikes around Thailand like idiots, something they would never do in their own countries. So now I have my answer.

[Isaan sailor]

1. Living far far away from ex-wife

2. Living with a much younger, stunning wife.

3. Cheap haircuts.

4. 3 and 4 star hotels for cheap.

5. Island hopping with sailboat.

I am absolutely gobsmacked as to why these appliances are not in Western countries, and in some cases against local regulations.

The images of people fighting over toilet paper in supermarkets during the COVID era never happened in Thailand.

[Screaming]

Well it certainly is not the food, climate, clean beaches, traffic, politics, pollution, motorbikes or Chiang Mai. There is only one reason and if that reason ever ceases to exist, I am out of here.

I had motorbike licenses for Australia and Thailand.

I let the Australian license lapse, as I considered driving a motorbike there to be too dangerous.

I've been driving a scooter for more than 10 years here. I've never had an accident, so I must be doing something right.

Thank you for your negativity. Didn’t your mum tell you that if you don’t have anything good to say, that you should not say anything at all? Listen to your mum and keep mum.

Few people have a lot of really good friends. Count yourself lucky if you have two ‘solids’. 
Look at AN like your extended family. Mostly horrors but you have to learn to love them anyway ????

I'm sure things must be different from when humans first ventured to these areas.  I can't imagine anyone moving through a much milder sunny climate and choosing to keep going until they find cold and gloominess.

What sad list. I take it that many of you really never explored the world before Thailand.

The question was about Thailand. 
FYI electric gates, sofas, beds, coffee machines and fast internet can be found in some other countries as well. 

Everything found in Thailand can be found in other countries, The OP didn't specify that the five things had to be unique to Thailand. Or have I missed something?

oh just to refresh your memory here is your list

 

Swim all year

Cheap massages

Cheap restaurants/accomm 

No need to leave car for refuels 

Acceptance of much younger GF/wife

 

Hardly unique to Thailand

can swim all year in any country.

cheap massages available in any third world country

cheap restaurants and hotels as above

younger wife no problem anywhere

In car refuels ? ok i'll give you the benefit of the doubt for that one, but personally I prefer self service

I enjoy bedding women, impregnating them is the furthest thing from my mind.

[Burma Bill]

My 5 "likes" when I lived in Thailand:-

 

1. The magnificant mountain scenery of Lanna.

2. Inexpensive diesel for my pick-up truck (allowed me to explore most of Northern Thailand).

3. Being invited to be a Tourist Police Volunteer (after 34 years in UK Police Service).

4. Chiang Mai.

5. Thai Air Asia's bargain tickets for domestic and local ASEAN destinations ("Fly-Thru")

Let's see - Timor, New Caledonia, South Africa, USA, UK, Spain, The Netherlands, Japan, France, Luxembourg, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand and Canada before Thailand. Myanmar, Vietnam, Laos and Hong Kong after. Enough said?
