"Any Thai .... Oh look! a little drop of rain, lets enjoy its coolness on our head."

Good one!!!

Cashier at supermarket/ covenient store/ 7eleven...

"Sir, do you want a bag/straw/plastic spoon for your icecream cone/mouthwash/ yoghurt...or do you think we should keep this unneccessary plastic rubbish in the store, because you want to eat your icecream now, instead of taking it home/ never actually drink your mouthwash/ have yoghurt-spoons at home?"

Thai: I'm really sick of som tam

Thai girl: Let's get some exercise and go for a walk on the beach

40)( Any Thai) "The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain""

OMG this place is crazy. My personal fav is when I get a coconut shake to go they put a plastic handle slip thing on the cup...<deleted>?! I have a hand and can hold the cup and I am going to drink it now. I would be happy with no lid...but try to tell them that!

Thai GF: Hey it's my day off tomorrow and let's go do something fun. How about we get up early like maybe 7a instead of you getting up at 8 and entertaining yourself on the computer until I get up at noon.

"I am sorry sir we don't have that".... instead of "No hab mistuuhh"

This is Thailand...how's yourThai? Oh...

So where's the de-duplicated summary of this zombie thread again?

Otherwise, please read through it all before posting the same old same old OK?

A farang saying............

" It's all my fault ". coffee1.gif

Yes you will, but it will be followed by "How the hell could I be so stupid !?"

Wow, I really feel sorry for all the owners of those book stores full of Thai language fiction and non-fiction -- you know, the ones that are in every provincial town and always seem full of customers. Since Thais never read, all those books must just be gathering dust. Sad.

They'd be better off calling em libraries.

#99 "I have no intention of buying this book when I can read it in store"

 

ZZ Top. 5555555555

 

go on then

go

on ye

You're right; ZZTop is more likely.

Perhaps there is a God

ot on the roof

down on thr street

And now on Channel 3 its time for our latest Lakorn, " Love Betrayal at Midnight" in which Nadech Kugimiya and Kimberley Ann Voltemas play a young couple of street-dwelling paint huffers who discuss the role of Thailand's Trotskyist Workers Democracy Group and their connection to the International Socialist Tendency while at the same time showing their undying love for each other despite their respective families disapproval. Warning: This lakorn contains no screeching katoeys, ghosts, in it for the comedy value stereotypical fat and skinny Isaan maids, big haired evil mother-in laws, mentally disturbed Nang Icchas, Looney Tunes sound effects, houses that would make Tony Montana think " That's a bit crass", product placement so obvious Ray Charles could see it or 20 year olds driving red plate imports. Parental discretion is advised.

whilst driving- we should make room for that car in front to pull in...

21) I can't take your money, you will have to pay this ticket at the station.

I have had that happen. :( thought I didn't understand and he was arguing with the missus. he didn't want us to have a bad impression of police in thailand - because he couldn't give a receipt.

was a real pain meant we had to find the <deleted> station.

wife even offered him more than the value of the ticket. still no go.

wait can I call you back? I am driving my motorbike/ car

Oh yes, we have a terrible record of treating Cambodians, Rohyngia, Muslims and Burmese badly

I was in the 7-11 and there was a penguin wearing a top hat buying a hot dog smokey bite and a bottle of M-150.

Wife - "sure honey, my sister would love to join us!!"

Thai, irrespective of education

"are there any things you DON'T like about Thailand?"

(rather than the ubiquitous "don't you like [insert most anything here] about Thailand?")

In the 7-11

( Door opening tone) Beep Bawp.

I know it's not cool to be Thai, and that's why I try to look anything but -- Korean, Japanese, Eurasian, etc.

No!!! Your wife , 2 babies, mother in law and pet rottweiler can't get on the motorbike, it's meant for 2 persons only.
