Popular Post puukao Posted December 30, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted December 30, 2014 I have fell into the trap of responding and "having fun" with only negative threads. The pollution, double pricing, expat failure, bad this and bad that, gf bad, wife bad, this is horrible....... So, in 2015, I will try to respond to only positive threads. I will think before I click on "Did I just get ripped off" or "My gf burned my passport". I will shake my head when I read, "I lost my life savings at karaoke" and simply log-out after seeing, "These Thais hate farang!!" But then I will return and post freely on "Why I love Chiang Mai".... This is my resolution. I hope it lasts more than 1 hour. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puukao Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 nothing like living in a fantasy, id rather take reality however grim ever watched a movie, or read a book on fiction? clearly it was a joke, and not some "fantasy living". technically, right now typing is fantasy and not "living in the moment". will check in on this thread in about 18 hours.... late. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT ... that's a bit rich ... sticking it to Patsy, 12 months out ... that's a ... Who knows who'll win next. When smokie runs it in 2015, you might get nominated and win a second term as chief cabin boy. Unless, of course, you are true to your word and say that you won't run again. No-one should win it twice was JT's catch cry. What say you JT ... true to word or Election / Campaign Promise? . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 There will be lots of good choices for next time: NancyL, Costas, Patsycat and a host of others I'm sure. Of course I will keep my word to never be on the poll list there again. Why would anyone doubt that? The question of the structure of future polls for next year will be addressed closer to end of year. Nothing will be decided about such matters anytime soon and any decisions made are likely to be done behind the curtains as in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post n210mp Posted December 31, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted December 31, 2014 Why dont you lot keep this thread on topic? Whoops! There goes down the tubes my new years resolution of not responding unnecessarily to posts of no consequence or answering the crackpots who ill judge or criticize OPs and posters so manifestly unfairly. In other words I will attempt not to feed the Trolls or the unhappy and perverse people who are so severely dysfunctional that they get their kicks from damaging and interfering with the normal course of a good thread 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krisb Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 We are smartening up General in 2015. I will be wearing a suit and tie when posting as of tomorrow. Patsycat is a very nice person. She doesn't deserve the cold name, even though she lives in a country that's probably frozen at the moment, plus she's never said a bad word about anyone here except one time, at bandcamp.
