Why I like Thai people

[Harrisfan]

Kind

Patient

Enjoy life

 

Farangs not so much. Farang guy in Sizzler today miserable as. Walk past other farangs they look lost. Farangs in bars blank look. 

 

Thais sometimes don't provide the best service but they have a pleasant nature. Ap drivers are a bit thick but super nice mostly. You can flirt with women no issues or hangups.

That look is probably a hungover look, some living the nightmare after the dream 

[it is what it is]

 

for goodness sake, i've traveled to over 70 counties, worked in half a dozen, there are good people and bad people in every country. but by far the good outnumber the bad.

Why are 50% of comments here nasty then?

[Nick Carter icp]

Even of you are a really horrible unpleasant person , the type of person that everyone avoids back in your home Country , the type of person who never gets invited anywhere .

   You will be made to feel quite popular in Thailand

I too find the average Thai to be friendly, I like Thais and Thailand, if I didn't I wouldn't be here.

This ironic based on his 50% post.

I wonder whether you've ever been to Pakistan, where you can find the most hospitable people in the world.

A lot of the unfriendliness comes from the lack of communication and English.  Make a joke and they give you a quizzed look.  This is the majority of the people in my experience here cuz most seem to speak little or no English.

Also, deep down I don't think they like foreigners much.  For several probably well deserved reasons.  The LOS seems to be fading unfortunately.

My home town in the UK is mostly Pakistanis these days, with 70 mosques! Horrible.

Maybe depends on the area, Rayong is noticeably friendlier than Pattaya, the foreigners probably wear them down

Maybe they pick up on your anti farang vibes or maybe it is the way you present yourself. 
Do you have a bad head?

[Ralf001]

Yeah Thai's... have met good and bad.

 

Typical of all nationalities I reckon.

[Andrew Dwyer]

Thai’s : some good, some bad, mostly indifferent !

[Screaming]

Thailand is ranked number 107 in a ranking of a corruption index:

The Thais might appear to be nice but corrupt.

I like Thais views on death.  People die. The occasion is usually cause for a three day celebration.  Sure there is some sadness, usually followed by a party. 

In the West - black morbidity. 

Once I get past the institutional racism, I actually prefer the Thai culture over my own.

Ah, Susan/Nok/Harris is back again, the forum’s very own thrift-seeking, shape-shifting, serially-banned troll. The sheer dedication to winding people up is almost admirable. Almost, but not really.

 

And now, in today’s episode of “Harris Posts the Most Predictable Nonsense Imaginable”, we get this obsessive-compulsive gem:

 

Thai people? Kind, patient, joyful.

Farangs? Miserable, lifeless, lost souls.

 

Fascinating. Groundbreaking, really. Liberating in fact. Nearly as astounding as the discovery of the buried city of Pompeii. 

 

Of course, we all know what this is, BigNok. It’s Trolling 101.

 

Step 1:

 

Paint yourself as the only enlightened Farang who truly understands Thailand. Unlike the rest of us, of course, who apparently sulk our way through life like zombies in Sizzler.

 

Step 2:

 

Casually trash all Westerners with some completely meaningless anecdote you pulled out of the dark confines of your posterior.

 

Step 3:

 

Sit back and bask in the outrage as people rightfully call you out on your nonsense.

 

And let’s be honest, you’re not fooling anyone. This whole “Thais are kind, Farangs are miserable” routine is just another one of your desperate attempts to rile people up because that’s the only thing that brings you joy. You don’t post to share, or to discuss, or to inform. You post to needle, provoke, and troll, yet everyone sees right through it.

 

After all, you’re clearly the single most unpleasant person on this entire forum. You’ve been banned at least half a dozen times, which speaks for itself, and yet, like a cockroach after a nuclear blast, you just keep scuttling back under a new name, spitting out the same snide, passive-aggressive nonsense.

 

You never post anything of substance. Nothing insightful. Nothing useful. Just bitter, politically charged, judgmental drivel designed to get a rise out of people. And let’s not forget:

 

• The only thing that truly excites you is discussing how cheap things are in Thailand.

• Your entire experience with Thai people consists of transactional interactions, they smile and nod because they’re being paid to tolerate you.

• The Farangs you see in Sizzler? They’re not miserable. They’re just ignoring you, because unlike the poor waitress who has to put up with your dislikable presence, they don’t have to.

 

And the real kicker? You basically live on this forum.

 

Hundreds of posts per day, every day. Not one of them memorable. Not one of them worthwhile. Just a relentless stream of snark, condescension, and smug little digs at anyone who doesn’t share your warped, bargain-bin worldview.

 

Also, huge shocker, the bar girls you “flirt” with aren’t burdened by hang-ups! What an absolute mystery! Couldn’t possibly have anything to do with money, could it? No, no, Harris. You must be irresistible.

 

So yeah, Susan, Nok, or any other woman's name that you choose to go by this week, maybe the real reason Westerners seem miserable around you is because they know exactly who and what you are. A tedious, low-rent, bankrupt forum pest who’s been banned more times than you can count and who nobody would miss if you vanished for good.

 

Enjoy your next alias, Susan Harris Nok. You’ll likely need it soon enough.

They view life and death more rationally. Living more day by day than a focus on past/present.

 

Westerners have sex/god/ego hangups and can't let go of those ingrained beliefs.

I never get unfriendly Thais much at all except in a busy tourist spot. Must have met 1000 and very few nasty. Some of the nicest Thais I've ever met were in places like Korat. General kindness no money involved.

 

Last night I went to a night market and you get different vibes off people. 50% to 60% of farangs are fine but 40%+ are angry about something.

True, but it represents farangs in Thailand. There should be more happy farangs but lots of angry ones for some reason.

Ha, ha, ha, welcome to AN forums newbie guy. 

 

Lots of miserable foreigners here these days...
