I saw a Russian girl on Koh Chang who had on a bikini I'm pretty sure was made from dental floss.

The two worst things I've heard of are the self confessed cheap charlies on TV that recently scorned the 7/11 staff for not giving the right number of stamps, or getting screwed for 0.25 satang.

Other than that, there's always JT for getting punched for the sake of 10B baht bus ride. coffee1.gif

Backpackers that go into a Western restaurant and eat without looking at the menu. When it comes time to pay, they refuse to pay, because it is more expensive than a noodle stall. I have seen this a few times.

I hope they get a hiding.

Just today saw a god botherer missionary lady at a Chiang mai Tops supermarket, trying to recruit passersby... as I was leaving Tops, I saw her eating all the apple samples and then dash out, no purchase made.

Where is a dedicated Flag Chaser when you need one?

Took you a few minutes, but good save.

Guys pigging out on the food at a new bar opening, or a bar party and sitting on a small bottle of water all night. Oh, and Russians stopping at a bar that had a pig on the spit and asking if they could get a plate full to take down to the beach. Without buying a drink mind.

I have always said that if you replace "stingy" with "smart" here in Thailand, things will make a lot more sense.

The Indian bar fine is way up near the top.

Makes more sense if you're stingy.

That comes close to what I see loads of Thais having no rear lights because its expensive to replace when broken so they just go without and risk their live and others. Sorry that I cant put a farang down but not too many here.

I throw a party at my local for my birthday. It gives me great pleasure to welcome all the balloon chasers that I've never seen before in that bar nursing a beer for 45 minutes.

I wander over and introduce myself, thank them profusely for coming to my party, express my sincere desire that they enjoyed the food, and then shake my empty glass under their nose while waving over one of the serving staff. "JD coke". Never fails.....I don't know why they don't stay and buy me a second drink. whistling.gif

I've seen several hundred old goats spending all day moaning on an internet forum rather than go out and socialize with real people.

Just in case they need to spend a coin.

Tighter than two coats of paint on a ducks arse.

Used to know an american who used to frequent BigC in pattaya which was then known as carrefour,he would take a wad of tissue for his toilet needs at home and would also fill up his empty water bottle within the seated area for food.

Add to this if a bar didnt have a convenience he wouldn't pay the 5 baht to the nearest mafia ran toilet he would just excuse himself with the remark that he would go find a friendly tree,Now this cheap charlie had about 50 million baht in the us.

But I'm only 39 and have a young daughter.

Thus no life here :(

Am I exempt from painted ducks butts?
