I have never met someone who was the spokesperson for their entire race/culture/nationality. It must be a tremendous burden.

Good luck with your Christmas troll.

I want to ask, "Why every single Thai person I meet asks me, "How long have you been in Thailand?"".

Thank you.

They always ask me where I am from first...

Ask them to join ThaiVisa. It'd be much more interesting to have Thai people posting here too. Much, much more interesting.

It would also give them a chance to perfect their English skills, so long as they avoid Bender's posts. (Sorry Bender wai2.gif )

Why are Thai teacher's so good at making kids conform - haircuts, uniform, attendance etc, but not so good at making them think for themselves, ask questions, or indeed stay in school

Only thing I never understood about some Thai-parents, is how they can live with sending their daughters work in GoGo bars - and call them constantly for to have them send more and more money (even after they have built the house and bought the pick-up truck).

How they as parents can do that and live with themselves, I will never understand... Maybe you can ask that? Personally, I would rather work myself to death, than send my daughter into prostitution. But I guess these parents will not be members of that site anyway...

How can I know if the lights are on when it's so difficult to see the light switch in the dark?

Why do Thai people call me farang just because I prefer not to eat real spicy food?

I want to ask, "Why every single Thai person I meet asks me, "How long have you been in Thailand?"".

Thank you.

Or some other tired boring question such as:

"Do you like Thailand?"

"What do you like about Thailand?"

I tend to answer them with something like:"Sometimes I like Thailand, sometimes I don't like Thailand."

That throws them completely off balance. I feel like I'm I'm North Korea when speaking to most Thais for the first time (especially those who have had limited exposure to the world outside tiny Thailand).

How do Thais think of, or how do they see, their place in the world (if at all)?

As Santa is not Buddhist, how do Thais find out if they've been naughty or nice?

"Why do Thai people call me farang just because I prefer not to eat real spicy food?"

Thought you were Thai? At least that was what you claimed to be about 6 months ago. Perhaps you forgot.

Why is there a need to add stupid sound effects to jokes made on TV-shows? Do Thai people not understand a joke, unless it is followed by a "boooinnnnggggggg" sound effect?

Well 99% of what I want to know about Thailand I ask Thai people.

If I want to know about cheap beer, bars, hamburgers etc I ask farangs.

Of course it does depend on which Thais you ask which questions of (and which farangs too for that matter).

Some honestly don't know, convinced their daughter works for a bank and is very successful. Some think their daughter is simply married off to a rich foreigner. Some haven't seen or heard from their children in years and think they're dead. Some are just in desperate poverty and can do nothing about it. Some are evil, but not many.

It's all heartbreakingly sad to witness.

Sorry to go off topic.

Wow I've never spoken to a Thai person before oh please ask them lots of questions for me.

I'm Thai. No, I didn't forget. I'm flattered u've been paying attention to my posts :)

What is the true definition of the word "Farang"

Should commenting on the news /political section of this website be banned?

En should the vinegar pissers commenting on there and living in Thailand be sued for libel and defemation?

Whats the obsession with how much things cost, as soon as they ( family or friends etc) see you have something new or different the first words are "how much" ?, no matter where or what.

One of the benefits of speaking Thai is not to have to go through an intermediary to communicate with Thai people.

I ask Thai people whatever I want to ask them, because I put in the effort to learn Thai....

If you want to ask them something try this.

"Do you as a Thai person love Thailand, and if so do you see anything wrong with Thailand, do you ever express frustration about the things you see wrong in Thailand and if so does expressing those frustrations detract from your love of Thailand?"

I am a Thai person. And you guys are cracking me up. Keep it coming. cheesy.gif.pagespeed.ce.HaOxm9--Zv.gif
