Arguing For The Sake Of Arguing

[IanForbes]

It seems to be the most popular pastime on thaivisa. Someone new asks a simple question and is immediately called a troll because the question has been asked many times before. A simple misspelling, or use of improper grammar can take an interesting thread far off topic and turn it into a bickering match. Occasionally, I feel like making some ridiculous statement and then sit back and watch all the replies correcting me.

"Occasionally, I feel like making some ridiculous statement and then sit back and watch all the replies correcting me"....... So................You saying you haven't made any ridiculous statements so far?........... I’m Joking! Ian, since when does someone have to make a ridiculous statement on TV to be called a fool. The act of asking a simple question and not getting abuse is akin to not wanting to get shot by standing on the top of a stepladder in no-man’s land smoking endless fags though a luminous balaclava.

DId you want a a half-hour argument, or the full hour?

I'm afraid I'm a little conciliatory just now, it will take a bit before I get properly wound up....

Did you know that 84% of Thai bait fishermen are hookers, and the other 16% don't know how to catch fish?

Seems to me that many of the disagreements occur when people have written a word as it sounds. This can give rise to some embarrassing sniping. Mr. Pesci again illustrates the situation;

Vinny Gambini: It is possible that the two yutes...

Judge Chamberlain Haller: ...Ah, the two what? Uh... uh, what was that word?

Vinny Gambini: Uh... what word?

Judge Chamberlain Haller: Two what?

Vinny Gambini: What?

Judge Chamberlain Haller: Uh... did you say 'yutes'?

Vinny Gambini: Yeah, two yutes.

Judge Chamberlain Haller: What is a yute? [beat]

Vinny Gambini: Oh, excuse me, your honor... [exaggerated]

Vinny Gambini: Two YOUTHS.

Hey don't look at me, the sillyman started it when he referenced the brilliant scene to illustrate his point. In TVF fashion, I am blaming him. It's hsi fault. He started it wah wah wah.

Yes, all quite sad, although there are those that have multiple nicks spending their days trolling. Then you also have those who shoot you down for making a short reply, even though you have answered a question/provided viable info. Some right sad fuc_kers out there, it wasn't like this a few moons ago.

trolls and hookers the lot of them.

Anyway, its wrong to bait fishermen or anyone else until you've got a qualification - specifically an MSc.

Then you can use your strong right arm.

It's interesting that we call them trolls, when trawling does not involve the posting of bait.

Anyway, while I was thinking about fishing and hunting, I wandered into google and found this

http://www.thehuntinglife.com/

which I think will be informative to many of our fellows, and probably qualifies this as my most completely irrelevant and off-topic post to date.

It almost tempted me to resurrect a ferreting thread

And what’s wrong with red knickers?

Girls wearing red knickers are more sympathetic to the poor. What is good enough for Thaksin is good enough for me. The ones with yellow knickers, only the elite are allowed in there.

So what`s your problem with the poor, wanna make sommink of it?

Thanks for this Ian. Very nice but I have to equate them to a Rolls Royce. In other words, I can look, but can`t afford them.

Maybe next time you are in Chiang Mai, you will take me out and treat me to one?

Yah, I HATE that whitening cream that Thais think is attractive. It looks terrible and sort of like a cadaver.
