What Was This About?

Featured Replies

Someone banged on my apartment door at night and when I went to open it a Thai man looked at me and said "dick."

I didn't know what to make of what he said.

I motioned for him to go away and while he was looking around the inside of my apartment from the doorway, I closed the door.

I reported the incident to my apartment (I'm on vacation looking for peace and quiet and don't know any Thai people as yet).

My apartment told me to report it to the tourist police.

The tourist police said the Thai man was looking for someone who stayed in my apartment before me whose name was "Dick."

Sounds suspicious and made for an uncomfortable moment.

Reminds me of an occasion when I was driving down a narrow country road in Oxfordshire, England. A woman in a sports car came hurtling round a bend and yelled, "pig!" at me. I yelled, "cow!" back, and then drove around the bend and hit the biggest pig I've ever seen................555!

Well you certainly opened up a lot of possibilities with your question.

The Dick I know moved back to Washington.

Seriously he could have been looking for the previous tenant whose name was Dick and could not speak English to explain this to you.

Or maybe some body told him to go to that apartment say Dick and you would sell him some drugs.

Or maybe he thought you were a dick.

Or maybe he just made a mistake. Woud have been nice if you had said what time it was. 9:00 P M 3:00A M

Dick's (Dave) not here man...

If it would have been a nice young girl knocking at my door in the middle of the night, asking for dick? I would have certainly been able to help her out.

But in the OPs case, I would have just shut the door and forgot all about it. Or if he`s still worried, hire a detective, a private dick.

did he have a cold?.........in which case you could he could be looking for Nick......doh!

The Thai word dek can sound rather like the English name Dick particularly if you don't speak Thai. It means child. Perhaps he thought a child was in your place. It is also slang for virtually all jobs done by young people with no prestige attached. e.g. Petrol pump attendant, waiter, prostitute. Was your apartment previously used as a knocking shop?

When I lived in Holland, we regularly had blokes knocking on the door as the previous occupants had been a pair of Eastern European hookers!

Or he didn't have a cold and was looking for Dtick. It's a pretty common Thai nick name.

Next time he'll be asking for Jane.

Do you mean dick?

Sure, it's Dick's gf. And things could get violent if she would be found in op's apartment. I recommend a swift move to another hotel/guesthouse.

Seems like Dick likes many girls.......always in demand.

Ok, you have had your fun. Time to close this one. mfr_closed1.gif
