A Question Of Etiquette Here In Thailand

Featured Replies

The vocabulary

1. the bathroom; the restroom; the toilet; the lavatory; the loo; the bog; the khazi.

2. urinate; take a piss; take a slash; have a wazz.

3. the lizard; the ching-chok; the jing-jok; the voyeur.

The Question

What should you do when you go into the bathroom to urinate only to find that a lizard is watching you?

Should you .........

1. go ahead and urinate?

2. preserve your modesty and scare off the lizard?

Remember, that harmless-looking lizard may have been a stunning girl in a previous life. How would she feel if she saw your shrivelled-up "doo-daa"?

Genuine replies only, please.

I doubt that those amongst us who are living as lizards have lived sufficiently virtuous and sheltered lives to be offended by the sight of a gentleman washing his boots. Though you will be able to tell, from whether the lizard looks demurely away or not.

All depends where you live.

We live in an upmarket area and the lizards have been brought up well by their parents and trained properly.

None of them would dare to enter the loo or the shower room when I’m in there. They know it`s just not the decent thing to do.

Lizards should be the least of your worries in some middle-of-night, no light facility.

Certainly if your squatting.

Toads, snakes, mosquitos, odd-looking insects of every description...[depends on time of year]

Yes....life in the sticks when power fails.

OK...let's try this over in the Farang Pub.

Topic Moved.

Remember, that harmless-looking lizard may have been a stunning girl in a previous life. How would she feel if she saw your shrivelled-up "doo-daa"?

It's still going to be bigger than anything she'll find among the jingjok boys.

Don't you mean a gecko?

You have to ask: what is that lizard thinking while you are taking a whizz and its staring at you. Surely you are too big to eat? What do lizards think about?

Those pesky racist lizards.....

You should be advising the lizard to mind his own business and not interfere with us Westerners when ones leaking the lizard...

As long as it doesn't try to give you a shoulder massage while you are doing your business then just ignore it.

Piss on the lizard, preferably in the eye if your a good shot.

And then we have to question if there is such attached etiquette standards.

Whose standard do we attain from? And why...??

Would you please stop thinking so much, your like a never ending acid trip.

Would you please stop thinking so much.

Well, someone has to.
