SO it is a noun but is also offensive. Both of you are wrong so best go to the hardware store. Buy a bag of cement then head home. Take out the coffee pot and put 5 tbl spoons in it. Mix with luke warm water. Drink it back and harden up a little.

I love beer with ice. Annoys me now when you go in farang places and they don't bring you any.

Perhaps farangs understand beer and not a girls requirements ............

A girls requirements?

What are you on about now?

Please please please.

In the name of mercy and all that is decent, someone put this thread out of its misery.

Alcoholism and racism.

Two subjects which make some uncomfortable and are difficult to talk about, but which need to be discussed more frequently, not less.

Why do they need to be discussed? It seems that no-one can approach either topic with an open mind, so we might as well discuss whether Thai people should support Liverpool or Man United.

Barely tolerable for the first few posts. After 300+ posts, it's more like discussing which one is the better french kisser, your older sister, your younger sister or your Grandma.

Had it occurred to you that there just might not be one?

What's the shortened version for describing a German or and Icelander? "Germ"?? "Ice-y"??

You're trying to redefine what people should take offence at having never, yourself, been oppressed or maligned on account of either the colour of your skin or your race.

Why not just be thankful for your good fortune instead of sitting here insisting that you, too, are a "victim"

Pathetic

You live in such a la-la-land that it's hard to imagine you not using velcro shoes as shoelaces are too hard to tie.

Yep, your modus operandi is becoming clearer with each post

To wit, when someone lays it down in simple language that you find difficult to argue against, you chuck your toys and resort to petty insults

Try making your argument in simple terms without coming over as an angry little man

Your logic is following...

"Doctor: sorry to inform you but you have cancer"

"You: what? how can you know that?"

"Doctor: well, because of reasons a, b and c"

"You: you can't possible know what cancer is or anything about it as you yourself haven't had cancer!"

Nope

My logic as far as you're concerned is the following

"You: sorry to inform you but you have cancer"

"Me: what? how can you know that?"

"You: well, because of what I read on Livestrong.com

"Me: So you can't possibly know what cancer is or anything about it because you're actually just a dustman with delusions of grandeur"

You: Er . . . well, yeah . . . pretty much

Their drinking problem and sundry personality disorder(s) was well established BEFORE they came to the LOS, and once in Thailand certain circumstances exacerbated their alcohol issue.

They wash up on Thai shores daily, by the score..

Signed,

A veritable plethora of them

Atleast i know 3 languages well enough to be able to have a conversation... unlike you, a monolingual reject minority that blame everything that went wrong in life on the "white devil"

BTW, there should be a "dot" after the word "yours" in your sentence.

LOL, 3 languages and still unable to articulate your point without insulting people

Nothing went wrong in my life, matey but going by the bile in your posts, yours imploded big time somewhere along the line

I'll lay any money that booze was - and probably still is, right, smack, bang in the middle of it

Seriously, I have nothing but pity for you

Go clean up, there's a good lad. Go on

Seems i hit the 'bullseye'

And you started the insulting. Now, run back to your CD-player from the 1990's and play your Cypress Hill CD and blame it on the "white devil". Or better yet as you really advocate it, go murder some white guy and blame it on your failuries.

Boldly comes first, shortly followed by the rash.

Somehow I think other men may have been there before.

have a beer

[Andy2310]

I think table service in Thailand contributes to people drinking more.

Before you've even finished your drink, a cute waitress will come by "one more mai ka?", a nod of the head, then moments later another drink arrives.

[Ghostmanthai]

I have a drinking problem man....... One mouth and 2 hands.....
