    Had a "farang day" yesterday

    I started off by a close shave as a pickup did a U turn, right across my bows. I stopped with my vehicle near to sideways, less than a metre away from this clown. As if it did any good, I yelled out the usual compliments, "Buffalo, his mother being a Pattaya ho etc"

    Took the kids into KFC for a treat, made my order, to be told, chicken 8 mins OK? (Well not OK, but as there was not much choice as I had already paid)
    After 20 Mins I enquired as to the status of my (hopefully) deceased chicken, 2 Mins OK? another 10 mins passed, I enquired again,same reply, 2 mins OK?
    Well its not Ok lady, I see everybody getting their chicken straight way, I have waited over 35 Mins now and still no Fvcking chicken.

    After that we went into a Honda dealership to get some crap scooter for my 'ol lady. Sorted out a wave 100, but they had none with hand start, so the women said, get one from my Mums shop, come back at 4pm OK ? can you pay deposit now?
    No Way lady, I know how you bastards work, but we can agree on price, for electric start, how much, incl tax and PLB ?
    38,000 She replied. Incl name and PLB I asked? yes, include. So I wrote it down in front of her.
    Came back at 4 Pm with my ol lady, the bike promised at 4 arrived promptly at 5.30 PM. Paid over the 38,000, they grabbed the money and wrote out a receipt. Then she said plus 800 for put your wife name and 800 for PLB !
    Fucking lost the plot right there.
    You Chinese are all the same, I said, make an agreement and you just can't help yourselves, you gotta screw the customer at the end.
    I yelled at my Ol lady as I was departing, you deal with the thieving bitch! I stormed out of the place screaming obcenities at no one in particular and sat in my pick up playing loud music.
    My Farang day was nearly over.

    Yep we all have days like that now and then. My missus can sense when I am about to explode and drops me off at erics bar to calm down before I can make a kunt of my self. Most the time it is other drivers or shopping or dealing with any Thai run office that normaly sets me off

    Yea, but the bastards got me in the end, they delivered it with no petrol in it, so had to drive down to the gas station and fill a can, to top the bike up. KUNTS

    Every time I get in the car I say to myself that I'm not going to say one thing about the other fucking idiots on the road. I never manage to get to the traffic lights 400m away without doing it.

    Got to drive to Pranburi on Friday; GoW should probably plug herself into the iPod for a few hours.

    I had one the other day when looking for food at Emporium. Kept asking the same question to the poor lady in the aisle and she would just stay there staring repeating my words like she never heard them before.

    Didn't go into temper, just left like she didn't exist. She tried to follow me but I walked very fast and lost her in Aisle 8

    Now some might say, ah but it only 1600 baht and you should keep calm....jai yen yen and all that. dont make anyblodee lose face.

    fcuk that

    Presonally i would have took all the money back off her and said "mai me qualm kit"

    then gone to the nearest other dealer and done a deal there (even if it was more expensive) and then gone back to the first place to ask them if they liked my new bike and ridden away shouting "la gorhna komoy"

    Thats the good thing if your g/f is non Thai you can slag them off to your hearts content without looking like a fool. A firend of mine has lived in Thailand about 5 years and fucking hates the places and stays ar home with his Thai wife slagging off every aspect of Thainess to her... Which I think is a bit stupid really.
    They champion falsehood, support the butcher against the victim, the oppressor against the innocent child. May God mete them the punishment they deserve

    Yes we all have days like that from time to time. I just seem to be stuck on Grounhog Day as recently everyday has been like that.
    If not careful I wll soon be arrested or set upon by a crowd of Thais.

    Just far too much shit to go into any detail right now but if the Thais do not collectively look at themselves in the mirror and make one honest assessment of themselves then i see no hope for this country and it will continue is slide.
    3rd World. It can only aspire to be so highly placed at the moment

    That's the thing, they just don't give a shit. They aspire to be third world, that's what they want, like pigs in mud. Only the ruling elite and middle class want to make Thailand looks like Singapore.

    Yeah, it's an incomprehensible annoying shithole, but that's the beauty of it.

    Used to have a lot of "farang days" when I was doing speed regularly, but little disturbances don't seem to get to me much these days...
