What Are the Biggest Lies Foreigners Tell Themselves?

[thaiduncankk]

I am married to a farang lady, and life could not be better.

I have no problems with Bangkok taxis.

I don't waste my time drinking in bars. I'm implying, in case anyone is too dim to realise, that I am far, far superior to those that do.

It is definitely, definitely not because I live a hermit like existence with poorly developed social skills.

"She doesn't like Thai guys."

[ThaiFelix]

A lot of posters like to live in denial when it comes to Thailand.

I've invested heavily in her new business, she's bound to stay with me now.

[Rob8891]

It doesn't matter how gross I look, how stupidly I behave, she wants me for who I am, not for my (alleged) money

[BaldPlumber]

My family back home know I'm not a sexpat, despite believing that every other expat is. I'm different.

[BaldPlumber]

If I post "it's not a visa it's an extension of stay" enough times to people who care not one jot as to the difference and simply want their query answered, I'll appear knowledgeable and wise.

Not at all goady and smug.

You could've stopped at 'business' and it'd still be a lie.

I am very happy playing online poker 12 hours a day and making 8500 baht a month.

I sold my house in USA for $200,000 and bought a 35 sqm condo for 5.5 million baht. I can't believe how much money I'm saving here.

I'm looking forward to the Weekend

My assumptions about other expats are accurate, and make me look intelligent.

[Ace of Pop]

You can learn a lot in Thai Visa advice

With apologies to Dennis Wilson, Billy Preston, and Joe Cocker (hit it):

I am so beautiful

To me

I am so beautiful

To me

Can't you see-ee-ee-ay

I'm everything I hope for

I'm everything I need

I am so beautiful to me

I am so beautiful to me

It's merely an illusion though

[Rob8891]

I don't care what my mummy thinks of my behaviour.

[Rob8891]

I believe everything my pals tell me; they'd never lie to me.

[Rob8891]

Excessive eating and drinking have no effect on my well-being.
