Popular Post Costas2008 Posted April 3, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 3, 2015 Cross your hands and say no in Thai is the new sign for TVF members to recognise each other. Not surprised you got milk in your coffee, you could have got a slap if the coffee vendor reads Thai Visa. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyumiii Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 You come to their country and, fail to learn to communicate in their language. You decide to play Tonto and invent your own sign language and they fail to understand you. Now tell me, who is the "Dumb Dumb" ?? ( Milk = nome, No + Mai ) pretty simple huh? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Educate the ignorant of your superiority. All will respect you then. Why not volunteer to 'run' Asia by yourself and make the place better?

samsensam Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 crikey, a simple mis-communication over a 30 baht cup of coffee gets you so het up you have to post here. the vendor is not stupid. you didnt not make your requirements clear. its you who does not speak the language here. the work for milk is 'nom', the word for no 'mai'. not difficult. or you could point at the milk and say 'no'. for the stupid party in this exchange i suggest a quick look in the mirror. and for your own well being you need to calm down, or as they say here, 'jai yen yen'.

Songhua Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 She probably got upset when you said mai mee nom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwestroc Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 I’ve run across things like this a lot here. I find it happens just as much when a Thai person tells them they don’t want something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
