Jersey_UK Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Endless posts about what a GREAT investment property is in Thailand. Endless posts about what a BAD investment property is in Thailand. Usually on the same threads A presumption that Farang have certain "rights" in Thailand, just because in our own countries we allow in any old tom, dick and harry and shower them with "rights". A belief that allowing Foreigners to buy up large chunks of property in Thai would be an "Investment" not just "speculation" and this would somehow be only a good thing for the Thai people. An attitude that treats everything that Thais and Asians do when interacting with Farang as acceptable, because it is in the mysterious East. It's Thailand, not f##king Mars ..........If you feel like you are getting the shitty end of the stick when interacting with the locals, it's because you are.......and it isn't just because the person you are dealing with is Thai. Over use of the Quote Function I am sure their are more things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teejay Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 (edited) The "I'm a broke loser from my home country, how much does it take for me to retire to Thailand and live like a cheap bastard" threads. Any thread where unqualified people make predictions (aka exchange rates, property market, etc.) edit: also any thread that reads "Thai men are..." or "Thai women are...." or "Why are Thai men/women....." also any ex-military stud-guy thread claiming that he could kick a thai's ass if it wasn't always a mob fight... or any ex-military-type thread in general. also any thread that says "my TG" or "my thai wife" or any thread that begins with "I've been dating my TG for x weeks and...."

canadiangirl Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 "That white men living in Thailand with a Thai wife aren't able to get a girlfriend or wife in their own country."For me the cliche is 50 year olds guys claiming they can get a 20 year old girl friend in the Uk or where ever they came from. They can; it's just costs them a lot more than in LOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayo Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 QUOTE(SiamSquare123 @ 2007-07-23 23:32:52) *"That white men living in Thailand with a Thai wife aren't able to get a girlfriend or wife in their own country." For me the cliche is 50 year olds guys claiming they can get a 20 year old girl friend in the Uk or where ever they came from. Wasn't me; mine is 18 years old. btw, you tardos never read past the first page. no one ever responds to posts in the middle probably because most of you are too old and dont really get how the internet works or something. uh. old people are everywhere on this website. i can just see some of you with the long noses and hair coming out of your ears. People who lie consistently on their posts, despite posting info earlier that evidently contradicts what they have posted later Oh and to the other brigade counting the percentage of thai men in thailand for sex etc... someone said only about 1& of women come to thailand for sex. But let's take some (several) african countries: About 40% of women go to these for sex. Apparently has something to do with endowments of a central african average male being more attractive to a woman than the average thai male. SO same same, but different countries. Right. Said my (cod)[piece. What do the other 60% go for? Same thing. They just lie about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dantilley Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 People claiming (not necessarily in ThaiVisa, actually, but generally): Any Thai person who speaks to you out in public is trying to scam you or rip you off. Thai girls are incredibly shy and will never speak to a westerner in normal circumstances. Thais hardly ever go to the beach, and on the rare occasions that they do they will always be fully clothed the whole time, even when they swim in the sea.

Nibor1945 Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 People who show the depth of their sincerity by typing RIP instead of rest in reace!is it so difficult? I would expect it is more acceptable to write "RIP" than "rest in reace"? If I am wrong I will take myself to one side and give myself a good talking to.
