OK ... you been a member here on Thai Visa for a month, a year, maybe, for a few ... a decade.

We all face similar issues ... and we love to discuss them ... 'chew the fat' is one expression.

Extensive research has gone into compiling the favourite topics for discussions over the years.

It's not an exclusive list ... we* have focused on the main areas and made a conscious decision to stay away from the usual taboos of Religion and Politics.

So, here is a list of some of the most popular Topics we've seen discussed at length over the aeons.

You can vote the first time on as many as you like ...

There is no order to the way the options appear.

If you have a change of heart, come back, delete your vote and do it again with the changes.

Have some Fun, it's not so serious ... 'tis the Festive time of the year.

Votes are not Public to encourage anonymity and honest voting.

Vote for the ones you have seen the most here!

All I can say is ... enjoy.

* a few mates gathered ... drunk.gif ... and made these suggestions ... thanks guys ... thumbsup.gif

    What's the Japanese 3 3 3 rule?

    "BTW, if you don't know, don't ask" ... It will get the thread demoted to a lower Forum!

    Is it ok to pay the nice Policeman and not the fine?cheesy.gif

    (I'm repeating myself David I know, but geez that's funny stuff!)

    I don't like any of these topics. I must be different. They seem to be all newbie questions. Thank God there were no computers when I was a newbie.

    • Author

    You forgot bumgun vs toiletpaper.

    Nope ... it's in there, Q14 I think.

    And it's the most popular question thus far.

    But where's my 500 baht to vote?

    Two similar serial threads are:

    Why are posters here so negative?

    and

    If you don't like it here why don't you go home?

    I always enjoy when should I wai & how's your Thai, of course then the serious stuff like Vegemite sucks and Marmite rules the waves - thank God I like both and can remain neutral.

    Good Poll BTW

    I gave it to your wife with the strict instructions to pass it on to you.

    Maybe she's saving it to buy that Christmas Present you always wanted ... whistling.gif
