Anti means "against" or "opposed to". We're not against or opposed to you, we just don't like you because you're unlikeable. 

 

   This isn't about me .

So, you don't like Jews .  

Surely you cannot be claiming not to be Anti semitic in one sentence, and then saying you don't like Jews in the next ?

   That would be a really stupid thong to say .

I'll repeat it in case you missed it the first time. Anti means "against" or "opposed to". I am neither against you nor opposed to you. You must be really restarted if you can't understand such a simple concept.

 

Labelling myself and little Georgie as "anti-Semitic" puts us in the same basket as Hamas, Hezbollah, Al-Aqsa Brigade, the Houthis, and all the other death cult adherents. You're basically calling us terrorists which I find highly offensive.

We don't "hate" Jews, stop putting words in people's mouths.

  Is the word that you are looking for *retarded* ?

As "restarted" just wouldn't make any sense .

Are you suggesting that I am restarted or retarded ?

  Well, saying that Jews are tight with money is indeed being Anti Semitic.

That isn't debatable 

That is 1970's humour though, which isn't really acceptable these days  

 

 

It is to me and always will be.

 

Thankfully my Jewish friends are not like you

   There is quite a different between having  private joke with friends and posting things in public online .

   Racist jokes with friends is one thing, posting racial abuse online is another thing

With the way many Thais think about foreigners, they likely just think you are rich and they deserve your money anyway.

 

Those people I can spot, believe it, or not, and, usually, don't tip them.

   I do apologise for offending you ,

But you do seem to be getting the words "terrorist" and "racist" mixed up .

Making racist comments is very different to blowing buildings up

My god! Do you think it´s only in Thailand people give tip? They do that in countries where servers have high salaries as well.

Last time I was in New Zealand tipping wasn't required, they got paid enough

Tip is good, wondering how long that beer lasts.

About 45 minutes.

Two beers in an evening is about my limit as I have to drive home after.

So a beer in one rooftop bar, out for dinner, then a second beer in another rooftop bar is my evening out.

Just stop it. Tipping is not required or mandatory, but descent people still do it. That goes for Thailand as well, Both for Thais and foreigners.

What? 45 minutes per beer??? One must assume you drink that one with ice, which is a disgrace to beer. Otherwise you suffer a hot beer the last 15 minutes.

Tipping does not make much of a difference to me as we don't go to places that are not family owned and staffed.

Probably would need to rethink our monetary standards if we lived in a city and had regular haunts. 

 

Personal standard is to tip taxi drivers on long trips who don't terrify me - usually ThB 100.

 

Always tip the guy who brings up our bags and turns on the AC - usually ThB 50.  (was a caddy in my youth)

 

Always tip the housekeeper - ThB 100 per night (my grandmother and aunt were maids).

 

At restaurants without a service charge leave ThB 50 or 100 on the tray (supposedly gets split among staff unlike tip in the hand).

 

Make special note and tip a bit extra if the grandchild is with us when the waitperson greets and makes her feel welcome, e.g. at our regular restaurant they see us coming and brings the high chair for her and wait for her order (may be a while as she scans the photos).

Then the service people will be out of a job as well as not receiving a measly tip. This sounds like F--k you Jack. I'm alright.

[CygnusX1]

I leave 20 baht for the maid when staying in hotels. Would like to leave 40, but now that I use plastic at supermarkets, I find it hard to collect enough 20 baht notes. Is it possible to exchange 1,000 baht notes for 20’s at a bank?

That is assumed - - rewarding = appreciating - - no? 

 

or do you just like to be disagreeable... I enjoy being a good tipper = I am going to assume you don't

"do you just like to be disagreeable"

 

That seems to be the heart of the matter.

I tip all the time 

Be generous the Thai people make very little money.  If you can afford to travel then you can afford to tip in Thailand.  It’s just a nice thing to do. If you only knew how much they got paid I believe you would feel better about leaving a tip. If they are lucky and treated fairly by there employers they will make 8-10 dollars a day after taxes and many working women have to support the whole family with those wages.  The men in the family don’t often work or they leave to find another women.  Thai people don’t have a safety net like other countries, they have to work there whole life till they die. So be generous and leave them a tip.

Another simple guy. In New Zealand tipping isn't required because staff are paid better, which was the point of my post that went over your head

These restaurant employees are needed, otherwise you would sit in that rubbish restaurant without any service staff.

Cute.  The deaths in Gaza are primarily due to  the direct action of  the  Gazan initiated war. Most of the casualties were direct participants, such as Hamas or Islamic Jihad personnel. Others died while engaged as supply and logistics workers, and others died while working as command and control personnel. And then there were the  "civilian' casualties that came about because Hamas put  ammunition bunkers in residential areas, or concealed their command and control  centers in residential districts.

Others died when Gazan missiles and rockets fell short or detonated during launch. A large number of Gazan munitions self detonate. All these casualties are blamed on Israel and are treated as innocent civilian deaths.

 

If you want to see a  genocide, spend some time looking at the   Darfur. The dead are estimated to be in excess of 100,000. There is an actual starvation crisis in Darfur. And yet not a word from people like you. Why is that? Is it because their is a bais against black africans, or is it that the mass murders carried out by Islamic  militias are acceptable?

The term "anti-Semitic" has been so overused it has lost its power, at least  with us older fellas who are wise to your tricks. You guys need a new schtick.

 

The comment which  called anti semitic  met the definition. It was intended to offend and to perpetuate a negative stereotype. I was raised to speak out when I saw such hateful  activity.

Unlikeable? My not accepting an immature and spiteful comment intended to wind people up has nothing to do with likeability.

Your attempts to get attention are tedious and an insult to the intelligence of others. We all know your act is contrived, and it wore out its entertainment factor a long time ago. Good for you and your transgender campaign. I do hope that you can  visit   Gaza or  the arab palestinian territories one day so that  you can discuss your transgender beliefs with them. I am sure that they will share their hospitality with you as they have a special welcome for LGBQTs.

You are not fooling anyone. You don't like juden. We all get it. You are just too much of a coward to come out and say it  explicitly . Instead, you will find a way to justify your promotion of hateful comment.

Your word's certainly make it clear that you do. The war in gaza,  gave cover for people like you to come out from your hiding places and  spew your hate. No doubt you dislike some other groups too.  Stop blaming others for your circumstances. You  have not done well in life because of you and your own poor choices and limitations.
