Who invented the Car
Who invented the Computer

You would get something along the lines of:
"come from thai"
"made in thai"

But if they knew that those weren't from Thailand, they sure wouldn't be able to name the countries.
Try asking where chillies come from.
Hah!!! They always say Thailand, but then get a bit upset when I tell them Portugal, over three centuries ago..
Uh, central and south America, I'm pretty sure. But yes, brought here by the Portuguese.
May I ask what you have personaly invented?Quote:

A friend's eleven year old daughter got in trouble at school recently. A "teacher" was telling pupils that people were created by god with a machine.
Problems started when my mates kid pointed out that this was bullshit and that people evolved from monkeys. That didn't go down too well :)
The thing is, she spent the first 10 years of her life in Europe. She explained to me the other day that Thais know nothing about anything and the majority of them are stupid buffalo. :rofl: :rofl:
They are also shocked about Papaya too.Quote:

It don't suppose it did - it's not true (though I guess the teacher wasn't aware why).Quote:

So you don't know either. You don't even have the intelligence to lie about this or to find out? Really?Quote:

Another Thai bashing thread just for the sake of it... Just what the forum needs.
Its funny that he starts a thread to belittle the average Thai's intelligence yet if you were to read his recent posts you would be under no illusion to who the real idiot is.
Heidegger? That's a weissbier, right?Quote:

Thailand recognizes February 2 as Inventors' Day each year. The Thai Cabinet set this date to commemorate the anniversary of the allocation of a patent for a slow speed surface aerator on February 2, 1993
Here's a list of some of the prizes that have been awarded for their "inventions"

Well, it's really simple; I'm an American and if one goes randomly about asking Americans questions one gets answers roughly equivalent to those I've seen here.
Americans are among the worlds greatest provincials; at least the equal of the average Thai, or most (but certainly not all) citizens of the developing world.
The hubris of 1st worlder's just exemplifies their own ignorance and narrow mindedness when discussing the world at large.
If it's not Thais, then it's Muslims, or Africans or, or, or...
I find it boring and somewhat self-describing of the one/ones posting such rubbish.
Thais invented a lot of good food, some interesting rituals and superstitions, some wonderful temples, maybe the blowjob bar with those draw curtains below, creative corruption, the ultimate loophole legal system, a way to always have something on the farang, a better looking ladyboy, leadershipless leaders, pingpong shows, a version of lao kao, possibly the urinal back massage, Kao Pad American, green lemons that look like limes, lampshade farmer hats, crooked-tailed cats, a person who can do no wrong and more.

It is the topical fodder that sustains TD and other like forums, unfortunate as it is.
Oh good. Nice one and so true. Cheers.Quote:
