There are some members just BEGGING to be placed on the ignore list.

TRUST me, your AN experience goes back much more like when it was ThaiVisa, MUCH more enjoyable.

Please do. You never make any good posts. So many negative people on here. Sad.

Sarcasm is the caustic use of words, often in a humorous way, to mock someone or something. 

 

I was mocking you Einstein.

Can't spot sarcasm. Claims Lewie posts are great. I doubt you could read a 300 page book. You're a liar dude.

The title of this Youtube video has a very similar style to the title of Lewie's threads ....

I wouldn't worry to much Folk. Harris is a little annoyed because another poster is getting more click bait hits on his thread then he is so he needs a BUP to be top of the silly threads.

Says the undisputed queen of drivel herself. Susan, you churn out more garbage than anyone here, with the mountain of thumbs down to prove it. Maybe try snapping out of your denial and ask yourself the same question. Remind us again, how many times have you been banned in the past two months for the sheer brilliance of your trolling rubbish?

This yarn is worse that watching the Hammers for 90 mins last season.

more bans than a heavily disliked aussie who can't stop breaking forum rules because he never does anything but stalks and trolls and can't ever post anything of interest. oh, wait...

Maybe she could have been ok. I would not have been worried about the policeman brother; there are benefits there, plus if she turned out to be a keeper, there are more benefits. She works as a nurse in a government hospital so she is paid by the government. Married to her, you get free Hospital care that includes everything, operations, CT scans, X-rays, Biopsies if needed, free dental, and free massages at all government hospitals in Thailand.

Was sitting at me favourite local khao man gai stall this arvo, you know, the one on the corner there on Central Road by that 7-Eleven with the three dodgy dogs sleeping in front. Just me, a plate of boiled chicken and rice, two bowls of that clear soup with the boiled radish and a Chang beer to keep me gob well lubricated. Proper peaceful.

 

Then this fella on a motorbike pulls up next to mine, tries to park, and lightly taps me old scooter. Not a proper smash, just a little nudge that made it tip over with a clang. I weren’t fussed, a friend heading back to Blighty for 9 months donated it to me the other day. The bike’s well aged and looking worse for wear than some of them old slappers on Soi 6, and there weren’t a scratch that wasn’t there before.

 

Bloke jumps off straight away, full of apologies, says he’ll pay for any damage. I wave him off, tell him it’s nothing. So he goes and pays for me lunch instead and brings over another Chang. Top bloke, I’m thinking.

 

We get to chatting, couple of geezers with sweaty brows and cold beers. Turns out we’ve crossed paths before, had a laugh trying to get the same temperamental ATM to work outside Central Festival about a month back. We were both swearing at the machine and ended up going to another one next door together.

 

One thing leads to another, and he goes, “Do you have girlfriend now?” I tells him nah, just enjoying meself out here. He whips out his phone and shows me a pic of his sister, early thirties, proper sort, big almond shaped eyes, works as a nurse at one of the government hospitals in Patts. Says she’s looking for a kind bloke and reckons I could be the ticket. Then he starts giving me the full family CV, says he’s got one brother who works construction up in Nakhon Sawan, and another brother who’s a policeman here in Pattaya. Before I can even think, he’s already tapping his screen, and next thing I know we’re on a video call with his sister. She picks up looking half-asleep in her nurse’s scrubs, eyes wide with confusion as some sweaty farang is waving from a plastic chair next to a chicken cart. I stammered a few words, then pretended the signal was cutting out and killed the call.

 

Gotta admit, I was tempted. She looked like a doll. But truth is, I’ve had one messy break-up too many in my long history of bad dating choices and I’m only a couple months into me nine month break out here. Last thing I need is getting roped into dinner dates with someone’s sister, having the whole family expecting wedding bells, and knowing one of the brothers has a badge. I’ve come to Thailand to clear me head, not fill it with more drama.

 

So I told him she looked lovely, but I’m keeping me head down for now. He took it well, finished his lunch, wished me the best, and off he went into the traffic like nothing happened.

 

Funny how you can go for a quiet plate of chicken and end up with your bike on the ground and nearly video calling your future in-laws.

Dang, you could have gotten her number for later use:):)

Bob, is that you? What's the next story? "I was overtaken by a steamroller on the highway."

Lewie LONDON, showing a WEST HAM shirt, and using the word ARVO in his opening sentence?  A re-patriated criminal by any chance?

Good decision. The "brother" may have been more than a brother.

Normally like the OP's (AI) posts but this one is dire. Utter dog sh!t. I am in an incredibly bad mood today so will give the bot the benefit of the doubt.

 

Tomorrow's better be an improvement though.

 

I fed the story into Gemini and asked if it was written by AI. It said no way and for a variety of reasons. If this WAS written by an AI then they are certainly getting better at story telling.

The government passed a law a few years ago that stopped all expats marrying government employees from getting free hospital care.   Those that already were married to a government employee retained the free hospital care but expats marrying  from that date on did not get free hospital care.   I have one friend who has been married to a school teacher for twenty years and is covered for all hospital expenses and another friend who married a nurse two years ago and gets NO free hospital care at all because of the law change.
