When you get on get on TV discussing the culinary delights of Thai 7/11's and suggesting the "food" at 7/11 is actually good....this suggests someone has lost the plot completely.

Great, yet another thread about whingers, by whingers and for whingers. <deleted>, go outside, enjoy the day, drink a cold one, step away form the keyboard. Try it, you might like it.

Those that fall in love with bargirls.

Those that give truck loads of cash and bucket fulls of gold as sin sots.

Any farangs that are not English or American.

And finally but not least, those that keep telling us to piss off back from where we came from.

Throw them all out I say.

Oh no. A Thai-ier than Thai thread!

Having a bad experience with one or two Thai people and therefore applying that particular person's negative trait to encompass all Thai people. As in all Thais are stupid/liars/dishonest etc.

If I were to do the same with some of the westerners I've had the misfortune to encounter I'd have to come to the inescapable conclusion that all westerners are stupid/liars/dishonest etc.

Yes, however it is true to say that all the wise Thais tend to avoid us due to a blanket stereotyping too. You just can't win.

It's really the opposite, we should bring in more ignorant people to stimulate the economy.

Totally off topic, but seeing as this thread is dribble anyway, I'd like to thank the taxi driver last night who came racing after me with my Mountain CD which I'd left in the back of his cab.

Cheers pal.

70 Baht!! ? That is expensive :P

50 is more like it unless you are a hairy hippie ;)

Complaining about the high price of any 'Farang' food when you can eat chicken fried rice for 40 Baht.
