Far better then those 50 line posts from the wanna-be, specialists, bankers, grammar scolars or political analysists, thinking they are in a general assembly conference giving a brillant speech. Start deleting comments and numbers of visitors and posters will drop line the rain outside. Agreed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does make you realise... half of the people in the world are bigger d!<k heads than other half !!! I also agree... Its good to know what people are thinking, but we have to be careful when using information on this forum to project what people are thinking in general life, as many 'out there on the fringes' views on this forum are from those who otherwise have no audience and are perhaps ignored or have isolated themselves from those around them (either through their own volition or because they really are fruitcakes and people avoid them !) For example, there are plenty on this thread who are just not normal - I recall having breakfast (in Mae Sot) and another Westerner wanted to make best friends with me... 'another farang'.... this guy was a fruitcake and I had to make my polite excuses and leave - I sometimes get the impression that a lot of the folk on this forum are like this guy... but the reality is, many of us probably walk past each other, sit in the same restaurant or pub etc without noticing.... I've very met few people who are so outwardly objectionable as some appear on this forum - I think thats a good think... I think even Bob Smith himself could be good fun.... perhaps an outright liability after a beer or two, but he certainly doesn't come across as some of the overly aggressive morons who sometimes post here. Its good to know there are such different people around us, but we should not allow them to 'influence' the rules of 'generality' as we are often reading the unfiltered extreme fringes of the 'bonkers' spectrum.... we certainly are in this thread !!!!
