I like to think that I can still make a fool of myself occasionally.

I thought it would have got harder after I gave up drinking but years of practice still triumphs.

The "c" is soft, in Anglo Saxon it's pronounced shay-a-duganga

That makes things easier....all this time the name in my mind was "skey ah doo geng gah". The proper pronunciation sounds a whole lot better,

Watch out patsy has arrived

Hope they take home to right tablecloth....

Sexual security, these guys would have zilch...... .

Do they actually see their prospective wives before tying the knot?..........

I was at immigration on Monday and some guy was wearing a white tea-towel on his head.

I mean literally. I am not attempting to use some derogatory term for whatever it is that those guys wear but he was literally wearing a bleedin' tea-towel on hi head. Wish I had a camera on me at the time, perhaps there was no clean laundry.

Either you are a troll, or you are just one very sad individual that has missed out on so many of the more wonderful things that come with being human.

And again your "I am right and everybody else is wrong" attitude comes to the fore

everyone is different, some more so than others

Told you boys and girls before, if you play with things that are green and live under bridges, you'll get warts.

St John's Wart would go down well for some.

Markypoofs has no sense of humour.

I think OCD comes into the equation.

He doesn't realise or laugh at us or himself. Intreging.

What the f is sexual security? Tell me.

Is it cos we have nicer bodies, smoother skin, longer hair? I dunno.

Odd

I know i spelt intriguing wrong.

And some Russian chap called lenin said the same.

As for Mark..Mmmmm. Some chaps on " other " sites who hate the good folk of Bedders, concoct ways of getting to 500 posts and then share the funof the wind-ups with their often foul mouthed friend back home..... I wonder ?

Hands up, i also go over there quite often. But don't see much action, they also come here.

This has crossed my mind also.

They seem to have a section dedicated solely to trolling and wind-ups. I don't have access.

I do...

I just left it at scead (pronounced skeed). Now, I know hes posted this like 10 times and each time I think, oh yeah. And then its gone. I can remember random bits of useless info, just not how to pronounce scead's name.

Sorry

I still haven't figured out how sexual security is like social security. Is it paid monthly or something?

Withholding tax?

General response to a number of the above posts.

It’s not that I don’t have a sense of humor but my humor does not include poop jokes, insider slang or jargon or regional or national slang not in common usage in an international English speaking forum. I think it rude of Americans, Australians or anyone to use language only known to certain cliquish groups or ethnic minorities.

When I was a kid I worked in a factory during my college breaks. I didn’t hang around the blue collar bars for lunch because they were boorish low class fellows. The kind of humor that is prevalent in pubs after midnight is not my cup of tea.

I think calling a person a troll without documentation is the height of being a knave.

I think insults, and rude comments because you have been bested in a discussion is the first refuge of a scoundrel.

I think very few people on this forum are willing to admit they are wrong. It seems they would stoop to any depth to avoid a simple admission of error.

I don’t have a problem with that and in two recent discussions, one on Pattaya and another on a female proposed Supreme Court Justice I admitted I was in error.

The question what is sexual security has been asked a number of times in this thread and each and every time I have attempted an answer. However I am tired of answering the same question over and over again so if you really want to know go back and read the thread.

Although why a woman would want to is beyond me because they are not at risk.

Maybe you should post in Outside the Box if you expect the subject kept serious. I can't think of any low class boorish fellows there. In fact most of the regulars seem to avoid this forum.

Bedlam by name, and Bedlam by nature most days.

Sorry we don't meet your high standards.

My dear chap, this post stands as my documentation.

I am leaning more and more to the troll option myself. I find it hard to believe that a real person could actually be this arrogant.

You don’t have to call anyone with manners arrogant. It has more to do with being brought up polite than anything else.

The F word is not in my vocabulary and I am afraid that people who use it as an expletive every other word I find tiresome.

The logic of somehow thinking the word troll carries more critical weight than the word buffoon escapes me.

As a young man I worked in auto factories to earn my way through school. The men in the factories were on the whole lazy drunkards who depended on unions to keep them employed rather than any attempt to accumulate skill or knowledge. They frequently sabotaged the assembly lines for fun and produced a substandard product. Thinking it was fun to throw a beer bottle in a body part to let the poor customer wonder where the rattle came from.

Using the word troll rather than express your thoughts is a overdone internet affectation. Please don’t expect me to afford any intellectual respect to such a person.

I had always thought it was good manners to know when to drop something and not try constantly impose ones views upon others. I had also always thought it was good manners to not need to put down others disparagingly...such as calling people retarded. Nor (i was brought up to believe), is it good manners to look down on others and assume they are less than you.

I was often told this wonderful and invaluable famous story as a child from my Aunt (ok..it is regarding etiquette..however goes hand in hand with good manners)

The first rule of etiquette is to make others feel comfortable no matter what the situation. The Queen of England was giving a formal state dinner for the King of Ethiopia. The King did not know that the small bowl of warm water mixed with lemon was a Finger Bowl designed to cleanse one’s fingers between courses. Not knowing the function of the Finger Bowl, he drank it. Seeing this, the Queen drank hers. Seeing this, every single other person in the Great Hall at Buckingham Palace then drank theirs. The Queen did the wrong thing with her finger bowl in order to do the right thing which is, make the King feel comfortable and not embarrassed

.

Maybe you dont quite get my meaning from that. If not, it isnt important. Just carry on.

Perhaps you should find the meaning of the word in this instance mark. You are demonstrating that you are not nearly as smart as you think you are.

Please read all the threads in Bedlam.

A man of your obvious wit and intellect will soon see it is a bit of harmless fluff where like minded ( mindless in my case ) individuals in general post drivel. This drivel is harmless and acts as a relief valve for many and is useful for this relief, and little more. People do not come to Bedlam to seek knowledge, and most importantly, they do not come here to make enemies or joust with pseudo-intellectuals, who seem heel bent on getting people to rise to their not very well hidden, inflammatory comments, often written in quite long paragraphs of a type of drivel that doesn't really match the general drivel found here.

Some folk think this " banter" is just too silly for words and leave. Others asked for, and were granted, a sub-forum where the more relaxed rules of Bedlam allow them to speak on more serious topics non-Thai related as some maybe, again amongst friends who give, take and rarely bare a grudge.

The type of baiting which you seem to enjoy, really doesn't belong here now does it ?

By all means welcome, and happy to have another lunatic to join in the "Mad Hatter's Tea Party" which exists on this sub-forum. However, if you want intelligent conversation and people to feed your ego by becoming upset by your type of drivel, may I be bold and suggest " General " would be more to your liking ?

Anyway good luck.............

How many times do I have to say it. Access to bedders should be increased based on this alone.

It should be at least 8,000 posts

Did he leave yet? Good Riddance.

I’ll share a secret with you all. I stay here because of the motivation provided by moonraker and neverdie. If they stopped posting I would have to undergo serious grief counseling at the Wat. At least a 6 monk chanting job and maybe 8. It would cost me a small fortune. I would have to buy the local townspeople lunch and make a cash offering to the Abbot. I hate to even think about.

Is that a little humour/sarcasm showing through there mark. We might make a bedlamite out of you yet.
