Also don't like the promotors for the gyms, they ONLY pick overweighted people...and also gossip when you passed them but hey i can speak thai and sure reply them...with their own fat behind, how dare they?

I'm not talking customer service people whose job it is to kiss-up to customers. But just people you've met for the first time, but they act like they've been your buddy all your life. Hmmm had that last night off the security guard here, he's new................"hello, how are you, where are you going"..........

Many years ago in Australia, I worked as a precision machinist.

By mid afternoon I was well aware no one had approached his machine to talk to him. He was Chinese and I just thought the workers may not like Chinese (yes Australia is racist). So I went up to him and said G'day and enquires as to where he was from. I nearly fell over when he replied Bradford in the thickest Yorkshire twang I had heard since I left England.

Strange Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Depends where I am. Out in the sticks, nobody. Lower Sukhumvit Bangkok, everybody. Indians are particularly pushy but so am I. Anyone with a permanent grimace on their face. ANY drunk Thai. Nigerians/West Africans. Unfortunately for all the cool English dudes, there are a shit ton of arrogant america haters that feel the need to tell you why they hate americans within the first 2 minutes of knowing them. Ladyboys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost Benny Hill'esh comical.....It does always set one aback when someone opens their mouth and shatters our preconceived ideas..... Unfortunately, it probably doesn't happen enough...... When I first moved here it surprised me that some "white" farangs didn't speak english....Lesson learned - repeatedly......Now I listen & observe better - or try to before I offer help or a remark.....
