Coming To Thailand Checklist.

Featured Replies

Due to popular dislike I am back with another in my series of Checklists.

I don't care much for the newbies. They are always reinventing the wheel. Making grand proclamations after spending ten minutes in country with a phrase book.

At the same time, I gain no pleasure from the suffering of others. Even when it is largely the persons own fault. This is my attempt to help and is just a starter list. Hope others will add more tips that might be more relevant than mine.

1. How much money do you have?

2. Do you have a job or prospects if you need one?

3. Do you qualify for a visa?

4. How old are you? (A 20 year old will experience a different Thailand than a 50 year old.)

5. How is your health? (Do you have issues with food, medicine, heat, pollution?)

6. Do you speak any Thai?

7. What is you personality type? (The way you act will have a major impact on how you are treated.)

8. Are you a happy, attractive, successful person? (If you are an unhappy, unsuccessful, looser back home then that is what you will be here, too.)

9. How much experience do you have? (The naive and gullible are a walking target and easy pickings for a good con-man.)

10. Are your vises under control? (Thailand is a place where you can easily indulge your vises and that can be a very slippery slop.)

11. etc................

My vises are well under control, thanks. :o

And i fell down my slippery slop a long time ago

I've never been more loose, but don't see it as a disadvantage.

Loose bowels can often lead to slippery slop. Consult a doctor.

12. Can you start threads on an internet forum ?

You missed unattractive out as being partly to blame for being a loser. Or is that looser?

Slippery slop is genetic, it runs in your jeans! :o

13. Can you spell in your native language?

14. do you have a tatto? new visa regulations make a tattoo mandatory!

13. Can you spell in your native language?

No? Excellent! You can become an English teecher. :o

15. Will you end up staring at a computer monitor all day instead of actually living life to the full?

if you like to drink wine you have two options:

-ask Bill Gates for a small donation (a few million dollars)

-consider to have own your vineyard

-let your old lady work as housemaid with the neighbours

Well if that is the best you can do, I guess I give up!

All sex tourists and backpackers are now required to wear pink hello kitty armbands. Better to buy locally before coming to Thailand so as not to be unprepared, and to find individual and unique ones in advance.

39. Do you find that you keep lists of your lists?

48. Do you think that making lists makes you a better person to experience the unpredictable MyBpenRai-ness of Thailand?

48. How many of your vices are not under control?

(How did you know? You must be peeking.)

(No not me! Just everybody else.)

(Only the big one. LIST MAKING!)
