Many left-overs here

Just seeing what he would say. That's in India, the first was in Florida. The one I posted last is easy to find googling pictures of Thai temples.

So you are a phony who googles images of temples. You are such a fake person.

Just to set it straight, I've been to over a hundred temples living here, mostly with my girlfriend but some with my ex, as she works for the government here and funerals are a weekly thing. I accompany here on many. I'm still waiting for evidence he actually lives here, and more important, how. A tourist can only stay a short time, and an expat needs a retirement or work visa.

The other weirdo actually think it matters what I do here, as his life seems to be so empty he needs to try and make himself feel better being a pseudo Don Juan and commenting on other's lives that are superior to his own fantasies. . Having been with about 100 women, without paying for any, seems to hurt his feelings, as he likely has never had that but only dreams about it. I also wonder how he stays here, being under retirement age.

That everyone here, including those in charge, has his number, has passed his thinking by, as that personality type doesn't care what anyone thinks, but only to try and degrade others who are obviously happier in life. Lets see if either can comeback with anything besides another assumption or exaggeration, it being their MO's.

"Losers are weepers"... remember that one?

I first heard it when I was a kid... and that was a very long time ago.

Funny how some people are still doing their best to keep the saying alive.

Those things look silly on farangs.

Some farang believe Buddha tattoos actually make them more Thai than a Thai national. 😂

You don't have a life Fred. You dream about fishing in Cairns and hunting elsewhere. Sisaket is a dump and you want to leave but are trapped there.

No one has mentioned the science behind lowing testosterone levels with age. It's what turns men into "Grumpy Old Men" (GOM) as they age.

It's a part of life and completely normal, and no one can escape it, and viagra can't fix it. 😂

Men turn into women and women turn into endless wrinkles.

Worst I have experienced in Pattaya. My door bell rang (Pattaya sai 3), was a brit guy about 40 yo, he said "I saw your add to sell your house on the norice board at Frienship supermarket with this address, but that'd NOT why I'm hear, I follow up every new item posted on that norice board to ask 'do you know ehere I can find a place in Pattaya which can supply 12 year old virgins?". I didn't answer.

My late teen son heard every word. As I was trying to ignore the brit guy and quickly close the door my son pushed past me with his cricket but and started to attack the brit,and son chased him, quikly caught up to him ad severly bashed the brit with his cricket bat and the brit collapsed to the ground.

Son (bilingual) called Pattaya police station.

Within 10 minutes police and a rescue service arrived, brit was still on the ground.

Rescue leader took his vital signs and said to the cops 'he's alive, he's not going to die.'

Lead cop responded 'take hime to the lock up at Pattaya police staion'.

Lead cop then said to my son 'good boy you did well, I will send a reward later today'.

Later a young cop arrived with a big gift basket of chicken essence for my son.

My son and the young cop hit if off, son explainded he was studying engineering at the nearby campus of a good uni (at Sri Racha). Young cop responded 'wow I would love to study engeneering, do you think your uni would accept me?

Son said 'I think yes, I have to go to class tomorrow morning please come with me< i will leave the house at 7:15 am tomorrow.

Young cop came at 7:00, I made coffee for him. Then went together to the uni.

At 3.00 pm they both returned to the house, both very happy.

My son shared, 'they had no hesitation to accept him, he's all registered, his first lecture is in 60 days time, but he might need somewhere to stay until he finds a small apartment, dad can he stay here for maybe 1 or 2 weeks?'

Young cop spoke no English so I said to me son. 'OK but please don't be thinking that you will also go to live in Sri Racha!'

Son quickly hugged me and said 'dad, that will never happen, never'.

Cops started and for his first half term exams got A for every subject. He comes to our house about once a week, comes in, gives me a big wai and quckly to the kitchen to make a big pot of hot coffee (3 mugs) in a plunger (son taught him how to use it).

Every time he comes he wants to clean the house. I said 'NO, you spend your time with my son to review your lessons', and that's what they do.

Instant justice and it shows your son knows what's right and wrong regarding girls. The same respect and thinking I've taught all my children. You aren't victims, and anyone that crosses you is, and women aren't supposed to be victims.

Nobody promised you a rose garden Mate.

Not hard to Google pictures of places then say you've been there. Him of course.

Yes and that is what you did. Still waiting for you response on how old is your gf?

If one is not connected to the grid, then there is really nothing to whine about.

So your son is now dating an ex cop by the sounds of it.

what is a miserable expat?? I notice that almost every expat needs to drink every day... I am wondering why.. is boredom because there is nothing to do for expats except the work allowed in the workpermit. Is it the heat? is the the short evenings as it most of the time dark already at 18.30?? A lack of hobbies? All expats I know have the same issues drinking every day, but are the miserable? is ventilating an opinion always complaining? I have no idea...
