I was in what may qualify as the world's smallest 7-11, the one on Suk 11, the other day and this arse of a backbacker, presumably blind or mentally-stunted, had his big as a house pack on and I practcially had to beg the tone deaf moron to move. It took up so much room it blocked the entire aisle. May he be caught without it in a festering jungle after dark when he actually needs it, because I know he sure as Heil Hitler wasn't using it as anything but ballast at the 7-11.

[DJ Pat]

Two bad tempered French backpackers armed with a map were negotiatng their way down Sukhimvit by Asoke, generally annoying most people by constantly turning around and walking double breasted, near the narrow pavement by the BTS. The even had the ball sto ask the lady beggar for directions.

> The even had the ball sto ask the lady beggar for directions.

That is SUCH a sign of newbie cluelessness...!! Like there are very obvious 'expat foreigners' all over the place who would likely know absolutely any place they could possibly want to go to, but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO they have to ask a 'local'. So they ask some Khmer beggar auntie who just got trucked in from Cambodia and likely doesn't even speak Thai, let alone English.

Cheers,

Chanchao

[chanchao]

And then they show her a map and point to some location on it.

Really.

[DJ Pat]

And they probably didn't even thank her for it!

[Jockstar]

Who cares? Backpackers are here to stay. Like it or not. Get over it.

And so am I so I'll moan about them. Live with that!!

That told him....

[Jockstar]

OOOOOHHHH!!! I'm so told. Pat get on with your life, Thes BP's are living theirs. Why dont you? This is really a dead topic. Anything worth saying has been said, R.I.P

[DJ Pat]

So leave the thread alone and stop having a pop at me and leave me alone.

[lowersmiths]

first time i went to Thailand was as a backpacker, the second was more as a traditional tourist (as i got older) and now i'm moving out there to work and live and be an ex-pat.

what do i think? backpackers are your future ex-pats (though not your future dj-pats by the sound of it)

[schmokinn]

Backpackers- a recurring theme.

Isn't it time to move on to a different stereotype to bash and make fun of?

- trendy DJs

- farang yuppies in Lol

- farang motorists

- Jap tourists

- .........

- .......

its the chinese in there coloured group watse coats at the airport and on tours that gives me a giggle.

[DJ Pat]

I got a fabulous trendy DJ thread coming up soon...Farang yuppies has been done already, Jap tourists, not sure about!

I'm off backpacking soon as I said, around the Falklands.

eye have herd that argument befour butt eye dont believe it. eye believe firmly that most backpackers are future street bums in there own countries. they are practicing four this bye lugging all of there belongings on there backs on these trips. they will become superpros and thus become supertramps. Hay, now eye no how that rock group got its name. can u dig that?

[DJ Pat]

Hay Dr, eye no the beggar lady your talking about. that does take a lot of nerve from those frenchie backpackies

That lady is the healthiest looking beggar in Bangkok!

I had a backpacker mate over a few years ago and it was terrible out with him in Pratunam market banging into everyone...I was walking ahead apologising in advance, and then who comes in the opposite direction? The blind handicapped singer being led along really slowly.

pratunam is tough man. eye cant imagine a backpacker trying to get thru that tight squeeze. did ewe ever sea won getting on the subway when they had the free oar 10 baht promo?

[DJ Pat]

You mean squeezing thru those gates and watching the thingys close swiftly before the backpacks got through?

Yes I have witnessed that!

[snakestick]

[Gazza]

they were a young couple & looked very out of place their

You didn't mispell 'place'. It should be 'plaice'.

Really!...you're mispelling is atrocious.

[DJ Pat]

they had girls for rent and a lady boy beside them as they sipped long neck singas.

These are your higher class of backpacker!! They can afford to enjoy themselves and live a bit!!

Some of 'em must have a little bit of money to invest in a beer and a ladyboy.

[DJ Pat]

Is that really the magnitude we're talking here? Invest?
