Private Hospital: No Sir, there's absolutely no need for you to wait and meet a specialist who'll see you for 5 minutes and then disappear never to be seen again for which we charge 10000 baht for the privilege and then stay here for 3 days in one of our 20000 baht a night suites while we run a battery of financially crippling tests. It's only a headache. Here's a couple of free paracetamol and off you go.

( Or from my own experience )

Nurse: You're right Sir.It was completely unprofessional of me to take a personal phone call while I was halfway through inserting an IV into your arm. You were fully justified in filing a complaint and I must apologise for giving you a snotty look as you left the hospital.

Any Thai restaurant manager: "Is the radio too loud?"

"would you like a different type of music?"

"would you like to dine without music?"

"Is it ok to have the TV blaring?"

"Is it alright with you if the TV and radio are on loud at the same time?"

"Would you like MSG in your meal?"

"Would you like a half bottle of mayonaise plopped on top of your salad?" (only in backpacker restaurants, because Thai restaurants don't offer salads with fresh veges)

Any Thai woman: "No thanks, I don't care to run my fingers through your blond child's long hair"

Thai driver approaching on narrow street, "no problem, I'll pull aside and let you pass first."

Chinese restaurant owner, upon seeing large snake in park, "No, don't kill it. Let it live like it should in the wild."

Neighbor: "Sorry about my dogs barking last night. I'll do what I can to discipline them."

"Are my dogs annoying you with their barking?"

"Could please you give me some advice on how to discipline my dogs."

"Did some of my trash blow in to your garden. I'm sorry, I'll come over right away to pick it up."

"Is my plastic burning bothering you? I'm sorry, I'll put the plastic in the trash bin instead."

"Sorry if soiled pampers are getting taken by my dogs and left on your lawn. I'll now put the pampers in a closed trash can." (actually happened for a few weeks).

"Are my roosters bothering you by crowing next to your house every morning at 4:15 am? I'll do what I can to deal with it, so you can sleep until the sun comes up."

From rural Islam neighbors "Sorry if my goats/horses/cows/sheep/goats chomp all you new plants. I'll do what I can to try and keep my animals away from your property."
