StreetCowboy Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I thought I made it clear in the OP that the lady was not a professional bar girl, she certainly never worked in a whorehouse. I thought and I thought as the days went by and finally one afternoon I said, "A thousand baht one hour after you get off work, OK?"She said no. I still came to the restaurant to eat and later that week asked her, "Today?" She said no again. Two more times I politely inquired if she would be available and on the last inquiry she said, OK." Your personal definition of prostitution is a bit outside the traditional one I don't think he ever said she wasn't a prostitute; I think he said "not a professional bar girl", meaning, I assume, that she was employed by the house (as a waitress) and not available for bar fine. Its unusual for Mark to say anyone is not a prostitute, though he did earlier accede that the viewpoint that married women were not prostitutes was a valid one, SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark45y Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 Almost every hetero male on this forum gets to consort with Thai women if they so choose -- I wonder why you think that your experiences are so unique or elucidating with your Yoda-like explanations of how the game -- at least in your perception -- is played ... I think you would be surprised to see how many guys can't get a date in a whorehouse! (or maybe not ) At my age, appearance and general demeanor I am pleasantly surprised when I get a date anywhere.

Once upon a time Texas was completely dominated by Coke. Coke had the entire market. If one wanted a Pepsi you were simply out of luck in any fast food restaurant. Pepsi sneaked in and took over a small segment of the market in South Texas by changing about 100 Wendy's hamburger restaurants to Pepsi. This created major concerns in the hallowed halls of Coke. It was a small chink in the armor of the cola giant and it had to be stopped. They sent their best and brightest VP to shore up the market. She was a stunner. She had risen quickly in the ranks with her flawless academic credentials and work performance. She also wore short skirts and had big boobs. I controlled 10 Wendy's restaurants. She zeroed in on my restaurants serving Pepsi. What I got for the deal? A go cart formula 1 replica to drive in parades, a million dollars in shared ad expenditures and her in bed for the weekend. I switched to coke. Was she a prostitute? I don't know but the principle stuck with me. Men will do a lot of unusual things for sex and women will do a lot of unusual things for money and power.

powderpuff Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 (edited) Sorry dude but YUM brands was owned by Pepsi. KFC & Pizza Hut have always served Pepsi products AFAIK. Stand to be corrected. Edited March 25, 2011 by powderpuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderpuff Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Don't you recognise a load of bullocks when you see them? It's clear to me you don't know the difference between a bull & a steer. btw. I thought you poms used the term "<deleted>" to describe bullshit, tall tales etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark45y Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 Sorry dude but YUM brands was owned by Pepsi. KFC & Pizza Hut have always served Pepsi products AFAIK. Stand to be corrected. You are correct. But I was talking about way back when before Pepsi became a fast food owner as I remember it. There was a lot of talk by Coke of staying loyal to Coke because Pepsi was going to be a competitive entity. I believe what you are talking about happened roughly the same time period as I am talking about. My statements were mostly involving the burger big three at the time, Mac, Burger King and Wendy's.

Good analogy, Mark. I remember back in highschool When my girlfriend told me she was going to marry either a doctor, a pilot or a lawyer who had money. She didn't care which so long as he had money. If that ain't putting a dollar value on it then I don't know what is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderpuff Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Thailand was just the reverse. PEPSI owned this market for decades. In Thailand the generic name for a brown fizzy sugary soft drink was & is "Pepsi" Marketing grand slam. Akin to "Kleenex" or a pom saying "I'm going home to HOOVER my rugs" Coke is still a distant second place. I go in restuarants & say "give me a coke" (cuz I am American) - lots of times you get "We only have Pepsi is that OK?" lol - hell yeah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
