Odd to be a Newbie again. Now I know what the illegal boat people feel like.

You can tell a male Fighter Pilot, but you can't tell him much.

      TT stands for ThaigerTalk, the 'other' Thai forum. TT management did buy AseanNow, but decided at that time instead of merging both Fora in one, that the policies/philosophy and audience of both Fora

      Good to have the TT lads over. I reckon many of the AN regulars will be shocked at the clarity, honesty and direct to the point posts. One thing's for sure; the thin skinned wokies will not last long

      You will find out in the fullness of time and will therefore be both entertained and hugely informed and better equipped to face life in this very troubled World.

    Yes I know my Avatar is not an Oak Tree, but it is symbolic, an echo from the past so to speak.

    Welcome.

    Truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

    I was Pinetree on TT. Feels like the first day at High School.

    It is a great shame that TT is to be no more. Like lots of Thai Ladies, it was small, exclusive, entertaining, stimulating, sometimes annoying, but ultimately, an enjoyable way to spend your time.

    No, still don't get it. Is it some kind of AN Member joke of which we Rookies would be unaware? Perhaps we need a 'Rookie transition Course', so that we get all the 'in' jokes, abbreviations and references? 😉

    You used to be Pine tree? You have grown up so your hair may have turned grey/gray; oak leaves turn brown

    Indeed we do.

    I doubt that most AN members will even get it. Especially those that come in with one liners and silly-billy remarks, that would be better off in the joke section.

    However! If AN regulars want to be educated, enlightened and be shown the right path, then this is the thread for them. And the TT team would welcome them.

    Weird; I find most of the educated and enlightened members also post in the Jokes section.

    Just wait until we have all moved over.

    Eggs are eggs. Pine trees are Pine trees and truth is truth. What is truth? AN members will find out soon enough.

    Apparently, I'm now in the top 13% of posting members, and this on my first day ! Now that's a promotion speed that I wish I'd had during my early career.
