GM1955 Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Why do Thaiophiles constantly defend a corrupt, feudalistic and elitist society that defines Thailand? Why do people live in Thailand if they dont like it here? Because I don't live in Thailand, but choose to visit multiple times per year and enjoy it for what it is. I do not live in Thailand for the reasons in my original post. Along with the fact that farang have ZERO rights in Thailand. And just where did I say that I do not like the country? If I did not enjoy the country, why would I continue to visit the Kingdom? What is your excuse? He wasn't referring to you in his post, you just associated yourself with it. You spend thousands of $$$$ per year on air travel travelling to this Feudalistic, corrupt and elitist country, who's a clever boy then ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berkshire Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Why do drivers of automatic geared cars shift to park whenever they stop in traffic Actually, they shift it to neutral to avoid having to keep their feet on the brakes at a red light.

Nothing particularly unusual about this, I would think. Shifting to neutral is just one click on the gear stick, putting it into park, you have to click it past the reverse click which makes the reverse lights flick on then off. most times I see the reverse light go on then off meaning its gone into park. once I had a dildo of a taxi driver actually think he put his into drive and reversed back very nearly hitting my car. who do you think they would believe if I told them he reversed into me? I bet I would of paid for that one. so yes I would agree with Zorro1 on this statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first bought my car, I think I read somewhere that the manufacturer actually recommends shifting to neutral (or park) when idling for long periods. Don't know why you'd need to shift all the way to park, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuckamuck Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 I had a guy put his car in neutral at a light, and then his car rolled back into mine despite the fact I honked to warn him.

Beetlejuice Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 (edited) Because I don't live in Thailand, but choose to visit multiple times per year and enjoy it for what it is. What is your excuse? No, I am saying that I live here and choose to stay here because I like it. if you dont then go somewhere else. I have my daily gripes about the place just like most here, but do the pros and cons on living here, for me Thailand comes out on top. I can take care of me and my family, I do not need a nanny state to back me up. Why do some people take these posts far too seriously as if they are a personal insult to them? Why did God make me into such a handsome, ultra intelligent, wonderful guy who can give Thai women multiple orgasms by just smiling at them? How does Ianforbes manage to give girls orgasms with his goaty beard? Why have I suddenly become obsessed with women's orgasms and Ian`s beard? Why am I wasting my time talking a load of crap on here? Why don`t I just shut the <deleted> up and go out for a drink before someone tells me to?

Of course, I have no idea what you're talking about TF. But in keeping with the spirit of this thread, I ask: Why do some people feel the need to mention "rose colored glasses" or "Thai apologist" or "Thai sympathizer," or any other ridiculous nonsense, any time anyone mentions anything remotely positive about Thais or Thailand?
