MikeSR Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 read any political thread on this forum and at least a third of the posts are in the vain of: "Only in Thailand!" "Thailand and its political situation will never change" "Ive been here since 1970 so I know more about Thailand than you and nothing here ever changes" "haha - same same" "the more things change the more they stay the same" "this whole conflict is really just the result of a few very powerful and mysterious people/families arguing with each other" -- what is this "history" everyone speaks of based upon? 40-50 years? That is a very short time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hannahcopacabana Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 (edited) We are all waiting for you to actually make an observation yourself about the present situation and not just persecute and judge others comments. Putting smileys after a spiteful comment doesn't make it any less twattish. See? I think OP is commenting on the flippant remarks of certain gloomy Guses and indicates a either a gentle positivity of spirit or a desire to attract said doomsayers to this thread so they say mean things about LOS and eventually each other, ultimately leading to a low brow slanging fest... Crap - I'm out of here! Edited November 13, 2008 by Hannahcopacabana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcon Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 read any political thread on this forum and at least a third of the posts are in the vain of: just about as many posters pull the "I'm not ____, but _____( counter to the first ____) aka "I don't mean to be racist/cheap/supportive of xyz govt, but blah blah blah." equally used, and in this case I'm going to use this one: I don't mean to be pedantic, but you must use "vein" and not "vain" as it applies to your sentence above. As for the rest of your post, I couldn't be bothered to read as it doesn't pass my personal philosophy of being a pedant and is therefore null and void. Oh and here's the smiley: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
