Some good advice. What would yours be?

**runner** · 25-11-2014, 01:05 AM

Don't spend your life miserably grafting so that you can retire euphorically in Thailand

**nigelandjan** · 25-11-2014, 03:55 AM

Keep your weight down from your 20,s onward

Keep very active

Have sex with as many Thai women as you can before you marry one

Then

Wait 3 years and immerse yourself in the culture ( mai noi rule ) basically fill yer boots !

Select an occupation that you enjoy. Look in your heart for the truth. Use your common sense. Don't let emotions cloud your decision making.

**reddog** · 25-11-2014, 10:13 AM

Drink stout.
Never answer a unlisted/private phone call.

**ltnt** · 25-11-2014, 04:02 PM

Think with the big head, not the little one.

**Bogon** · 25-11-2014, 10:23 PM

Just heard this today about wearing clothes.

Blue and green should never be seen unless there is something in-between.

Hope that helps all those fashion experts that frequent TD.

Take every opportunity you can to do new and interesting things, even things you don't think you'll like. Memories are the most important things we can accrue IMO.

Oh, and try to be pleasant to others, the old adage "You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar" is actually true

Dillinger earlier this year doing just that

It's OK to regret some things you did in your life.

Not so good to regret the things you didn't do.

**runner** · 26-11-2014, 02:28 AM

I don't agree. People might regret getting married or not getting married. They might regret getting divorced or not getting divorced. If they think that the opposite action to the one they chose would have made them happier, then the regret is the same.

I think you're missing the point Runner. You never know what you've missed if you didn't do it. Thus, the bigger regret, as you place more importance on it. Do everything & regret it later, if you need to! With the possible exceptions of marriage or divorce - those really hurt all involved!

**runner** · 26-11-2014, 05:27 AM

I don't miss what I've never had.

**crepitas** · 26-11-2014, 05:39 AM

Do it before you can't.....

**runner** · 26-11-2014, 05:43 AM

Don't let your weight creep up year by year just because you are getting older

**lob** · 26-11-2014, 03:03 PM

play the stock market..... it beats working for a living. plus u can retire as soon as you're on top of it.

**Iceman123** · 26-11-2014, 03:25 PM

Yes, is the av your house?

**runner** · 26-11-2014, 03:33 PM

Don't start a thread asking how to green the person who started this thread, because he will red you for it.

**WilliamBlake** · 26-11-2014, 04:39 PM

Look both ways before you cross the footpath.

**toddaniels** · 26-11-2014, 05:02 PM

Never trust the opinions of that fuck-wit prick of a poster, Tod Daniels!

Have you seen this person? If so, RUN AWAY, FAST!

Okay, you can almost trust him about thai visa stuff and may a little bit about the thai language too, but that's it!

Oh, and don't ever get him started about the rock band KISS either!

**Bogon** · 26-11-2014, 06:35 PM

^ Almost unrecognisable without his cape.

"Tod the Sith (KISS) Lord"

**slackula** · 26-11-2014, 07:06 PM

Never sign for a letter you weren't expecting.

**Neo** · 26-11-2014, 08:19 PM

Try before you buy

**Nathan Napalm** · 26-11-2014, 08:40 PM

One life.
Live it.

**slackula** · 26-11-2014, 09:29 PM

Judges don't appreciate it if you try to add a little levity to their day in the form of an improvised Bollywood-style song and dance routine. This is especially true for judges of Pakistani ancestry even if they look just like Indians (the dot ones, not the whoop-whoop ones).

ALWAYS check the fine print when applying for that festive-season job to see if it specifies 'traditional Santa' anywhere.

Ensure that the Home Owner's Association actually know what a siege trebuchet is and what it can do when obtaining permission to build and operate one in your garden.

If you are unsure about imperial/metric systems double-check the wording in restraining orders to be certain what unit of distance they have used, apparently there is a *big* difference between 5m and 5mi.

Too much of a good thing is wonderful
