loudest farang

[jacksam]

OK up front I'm Australian and I see a lot of loud/crazy Australians here. Especially younger folk. So here is my question. The Brits are right up there as being loud and full on. The blokes from USA just seem to talk SO loud. mind you some smoking large cigars doesn't help. So here is my question. Which farang are the most loud? (Which is code for obnoxious)

[MB1]

Australians.....

HTH...

[Soutpeel]

The most obnoxious I have come across are the old Brits playing the old colonial and for some reason Thailand has plenty of them, the loudest have got to be the colonial cousins from the other side of the pond

I have no issues with Russians, I work with as few and they are good lads

[Jingthing]

Americans probably do talk the loudest. It's the rock and roll. Hearing damage.

Next ...

[Forethat]

I have no clue. As soon as someone is load I simply leave. Works every time.

[David48]

So here is my question. Which farang are the most loud?

'Which Farang' ... the WHITE ones ... of course!

I know it's a sweeping generalisation but ...

Maybe the fine folk from the USA don't even know that do it

[slipperylobster]

Hah... Up here, Thai men talk the loudest. I can hear them 2 blocks away as they brag and boast and joke with each other. Second, is the Filipino.....they actually sound angry, but are just talking plainly. Third...yeah Americans, because we were told the British were skittish, and a bit hard of hearing. That is just our way of being polite so that we can get them in on the conversation. Especially those aimlessly walking the beaches and streets of Pattaya, looking for a free drink.

[slipperylobster]

Some truth in the Americans....we have a zest and joy for life. Europeans tend to sulk in dark corners and whisper secrets to each other. You will notice Americans dancing, drinking lively, shaking hands, and trying to enjoy more.

Just a cultural difference. Perhaps the foggy, grey days in England have a way of depressing the psyche.

The old Colonials! Jeez Soutpeel,how long have you been in Thailand?

I doubt you even know that the British were Colonised for 900 years before they even Colonised one single Country! I will start you off with learning some History:

England Colonised by the Romans for:400 years. England Colonised for 267 years by the Vikings, England Colonised by the Saxons xxx years,Do look up the following:...........

"Dane Gold", Marauding Killers Rapists and Pillagers,and destroyers of villages and Towns in England for 100 years! (until they did one trip too many in their Gold Plundering long boats)and were welcomed by the slaughter committee,which ensured they never returned home,and there people never came back to continue their Atrocities, Look it up it's fascinating!

NB: Further reading on Colonialists: Spain....France.....Portugal......Holland.......etc

England has always given up their Colonised Countries on request,and has handed it back to the rightful people,and surprisingly there are some

that have opted to stay British! Recently the Falkland Islands,and Gibralta .

France has only given up their Colonisation of Lao in the mid fifties,and are clinging on to previous ill gotten French Colonised Countries, I could go on...............

And BTW what Nationality are you!!!

Oh dear the history teacher has come out to play, you really don't have a clue what my reference to the old colonials means do you ? But thanks for the google history lesson all the same Edited February 7, 2014 by Soutpeel

The loudness itself doesn't bother me too much, but as an observastion the Amurcans win followed closely by the Russians and Norwegians equally, and third place goes to the French - not many around, but when they get going they really go for it.

It does seem that the majority of Yanks are loud, but most other nationalities seem to have more of a decibel range.

However, in terms of the loudness combined with the bullsh*t component spoken in the English language, the Amurcans win by a country mile with nobody able to qualify for second place. My biggest fear is getting seated next to one on a plane. Happened once, still having therapy for it.

Darn right we are good bullshitters. How else do you expect to get to the top of the manure pile?

[slipperylobster]

Seriously, I have had more fun at my granny's quilting parties than I ever did with a room full of dull Englishmen. Always happy when a Scandinavian or (Only in the worst situations) a bloody Ausissy. Sometime I have to make a quick exit when I walk in a bar (out for fun, by the way) and I walk into a room full of miserable old brits mumbling and nudging each other...barely moving their lips.

Stiff upper lip...old fellas. But I just play my Johnny Cash...yell YeeeeeeeeHah, light up a cigar, and grab the prettiest gal in the bar for a fun night out. You can have it.

[slipperylobster]

Damn Germans don't get enough flak. Selfish ones, they are at that. Only two good things about Germans ...cars and beer.

[geriatrickid]

Let's be fair. The loudness quotient is a reflection of the locale. I've spent some time in Udon Thani. There are a fair number of farangs out and about. Many of them look "low class". Yet they are usually polite and quiet, even when sitting in that abomination of a cement beer garden. In Hua Hin there is a wide variety of farangs, and outside of the entertainment zone, everyone is quiet and mostly polite. In Patong, the one word that sums up the farangs was trash. Loud, rude, coarse and creepy are few other adjectives I can throw in. Down in Nahkon Si Thammarat, the farangs are are not noticeable, even when they are present. In Bangkok, especially in the sex zones, the tourists and locals are a noisy, disgusting, vile lot. However, in the business district which drips with foreigners, they are low key and quiet.

One can conclude that if one is encountering noisy people, it has more to do with the venue than anything else.

You actually need to be polite to try and get these people in on the conversation?

You must be lonely.
