irishsmile Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Emoticons -- If you use emoticons, what do you think is the one emoticon that you use most often? If you don't, what would it be if you did use them? Thai food -- What are your five favorite Thai food dishes, if you eat Thai food, and if you don't eat Thai food, why not? no day in Thailand passes without me having a "tom yum seafood". Poster of the Year Crown -- Please describe what your fantasy crown would look like if you win Poster of the Year? question too silly to answer. Nationalities -- If you had to live in another country than Thailand, but not your home country, which country would be your first choice and why? (Regardless of visa and financial limitations.) Saudi Arabia (Jeddah) Thainess-osities -- Would you miss bum guns if you left (or have left) Thailand? Would you (have you) install a Thai bum gun outside Thailand? i am used to bidets and/or bum guns since more than 40 years and i wouldn't move into a home without either one. Thread samples -- Please provide links to a few threads that you started that you feel best represent the style of your participation at Thaivisa.com forum. i have started less than half a dozen threads and don't remember any of them specifically to provide a link. Posting so much -- People in contention for POTY awards are sometimes high volume posters. Please share your feelings about members who post a lot, whether that includes you or not. pass Self evaluation, rate 1 to 10 -- With 1 being lowest and 10 being highest, please RATE YOURSELF on your posts at Thaivisa. Careful about too much BS as people who know your posts may easily detect that. Wittiness 8 Helpfulness 10 Trollishness 3 Knowledge level on topics posted 9 Hotheadedness 9 Curiosity 3 Patience with others who behave badly 1 Bombasity expression does not exist Spiciness 5 Entertainment value 5 Writing quality 6 Thai-ier than thou level 0.1 Your BRAND on Thaivisa -- How would you describe your "BRAND" in the political sense as a poster on Thaivisa and finalist in the POTY contest? Everyone seems to have a brand these days. Ideally a brand is one word, a few words, or at most a short sentence. If you don't want to boil this down to a brand label, talking about the forums you usually post in here and your most frequent topic areas will provide similar information. my brand is "Naam", posting most of the time in topics finance, engineering, technical problems and do-it-yourself. Winning POTY -- What would winning the POTY Grand Finale mean to you? Do you want to win? Why? There is no cash prize, you know -it would mean much less than a big and belly relaxing fart. -i don't want to win and i [not so] humbly beg the committee in charge to remove my "nomination" from the contest. Nothing like honesty! You got my vote! ( even though you don't want it and don't want to win! ) lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted December 25, 2015 Author Share Posted December 25, 2015 (edited) Naam does not EXIST on the voting list. (Possible campaign slogan?) You could write him in. Not sure how to do that on an online poll. Could be interesting. OK, sorry, I was just joking. Write in votes will not be recorded for anyone, even if there are thousands of them.

NancyL Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 JT - I tried to respond to the first five of your ten questions. I thought I should split them into two groups because the ThaiVisa audience may not have the patience to read a post of more than 10,000 words. Anyway, I was well into my first couple thousand words when I realized the formating icons weren't working. I'm sorry, but I simply can't do a post without boldface, italics, underscore, etc. And how in the world can someone answer a question about emoticons if you can't even bring up the emoticon button? Maybe you need to consult with Milwaukee. It's Christmas Day there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy chef 1 Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 What an interesting assortment of posters we have this year. So we have the prima donna, the prankster, the petulant proselytizer, the proletarian and the perspicacious photog. Great four out of the five description I don't know...but who is the proletarian???hope you don't mean me because chefs are not just hard worker but also creative minds,financial strategists,trainer,visionists and loyal to their team and friends...but also blunt...

Jingthing Posted December 25, 2015 Author Share Posted December 25, 2015 (edited) Crazy Chef 1, I have an urgent COOKING question for you. I've got some STALE rice I want to use but I'm too lazy to cook fried rice. Can I use STALE rice in a cold salad with lots of liquid in the dressing? I'm wondering if the liquid in the dressing will "open up" the stale rice and make it kind of crunchy/ delicious. Or is that a HORRIBLE idea? Never mind, I think I got my answer: In most cases, rice salads can be dressed not only minutes but hours in advance, making them ideal for entertaining or for just cooking ahead. Cook the rice a bit in advance, and dress it before it gets too cold. (While leftover rice — even from Chinese takeout restaurants — is close to ideal for fried rice, it doesn’t work nearly as well as fresh-cooked rice for salads.) http://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1017655-indian-style-rice-salad Edited December 25, 2015 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
