The Elite!

[StreetCowboy]

It's quite clear, from reading this forum, that TV posters are a cut above your Mr Average (no offence intended, Mr Average, and I am sure, like the rest of us, that you are in the top 90%)

Anyway, the most obvious way in which we are superior is that we have hi-so well-educated Thai-Chinese wives and / or girlfriends (myself excluded, obviously).

In what other ways are TV posters members of The Elite?

(obviously, spelling is not a positive differentiator)

A friend of mine reminded me about protective clothing, and I like to believe that my white safety hat sets me apart as managerial and supervisory staff

They live in "the real Thailand" wherever that may be.

Usually easily identifed in your local watering hole, its the Chang that sets them apart from us mere peons.

They dont need to speak Thai to be understood.

Method of transport is always a bloody Fortuna.

Edit to above,

Place on the totem pole of Thai pecking order is futher enhanced by the number of tattoos their wife has, extra smartie points for the farang if he has any sak yant.

Crivvens, RGS, "They"?

Are you not one of The Elite? A member of the Top 90%?

I hadn't imagined that such proletarians might reply to this thread. I wonder if a Mod could sort this out?

I never understood red strawberry flavoured ones.

I think the idea is that the red indicates they are strawberry flavoured, and the strawberry flavour indicates they are a bit fruity.

I can't be sure, as I'm colourblind

You are right, RGS.

And they fancy building big iron gates around their entire properties, as well. So they ALLOW themselves to be secluded and left alone in their own self-created kingdom.

I like to think that I live in a better class abode because the corrugated iron was salvaged from a Sino - Thai site

Dont forget stainless steel knobs on all entrances. King Farouk demands these things.

Is this you at work SC?

Was going to ask you to send the lad round on his bike with half a pound of mince, thought better of it, theres enough mince on here already.

Hope you arent one of those annoying H&S types.

[smokie36]

Judging from the careless abandon with which SC demolished his pie n bovril at Pittodrie on a cold November night there is no chance he is a H&S spy.

They weren't even serving custard creams!

I always use my staff as a doormat when entering my mansion although these are only on the occasions when Im not ( usually) being carried in, as is the norm.

I can get my nephew to stand by the porch, he's not stainless steel, but he's definitely a knob. Will that do?

Pretentious people don't like cake... They just like to eat...

The term "hi-so" is just so ... yesterday.

It's really passé. It's also very nebulous. It's likely to be misunderstood. And it's likely to engender feelings of envy or resent.

Better to do away with the "hi-so" approach.

And as for Thai-Chinese ethnicity ... how plain! How dull! How boring! How predictable!

If you want to join the elite, surely you need a girlfriend who's ........ Thai-Chinese-Italian.
