    Stroke of Genious.

    It has to be a stroke of Genious to have a US Domestic Issues Branch.

    I mean really those guys, and you know who you are, would not be happy if they were not bitching about some US issue or another. They're only happy when they're misserable.

    The best one I've read so far is the thread about the US would be better if it closed its doors and went back to isolationism... which begs the question... If you want your country to move it all back home then surely it follows......?

    .... Oh I got it.

    The thinking must be like this.

    "Moaning yanks are a pain in the ass, get all my fellow yanks back home so I don't have to bump into them here in Thailand".

    Now you're getting it.... That's exactly how the rest of us feel.. But you just won't listen

    Well, yeah, ok, the first bit sort of rang a bell, but what's this thread about?

    I think we should have a thread for all those posters who can't spell properly.

    The US most certainly does not have a Domestic Issues Branch. We only have the judiciary, the exectutive, and the legislative branches. Certain departments, like that of the interior, cover domestic issues. My god man, have you gone mad?

    Sounds like most of my extended family, except you'd have to add, "and drinking" to the end of the sentence.

    But now miserable and drinking, while at the same time whinging, sounds like the vast majority of the poms I hear at the bars.

    It makes me feel good when people miss me. What's so wrong about that?

    This notion is shared by a number of members, US Domestic was created as a response - it's easy to avoid this section, yet it provides a platform for those interested - it is quite a popular subforum.

    I think he's a dumb Aussie, Lily. As if we haven't got enough of them round here already. Luckily they spend most of the time in the cricket threads wondering why their team has forgotten how to play cricket.

    If you were mod of an area called "Thai Issues" it would be the biggest part of the forum stroll.

    Anything Thai or S.E. Asia related is more than welcome, but if folks prefer to discuss someone being assaulted in a hotel elevator in San Fransisco, then that's fine too, in the US section.

    sar·casm- a mode of satirical wit depending for its effect on bitter, caustic, and often ironic language that is usually directed against an individual

    also see,

    fa·ce·tious- (1) meant to be humorous or funny : not serious; (2)joking or jesting often inappropriately

    Perhaps the inappropriately part is most true. Too soon? I'll go hang out in the games room for a while.

    I think I get it. Itchy doesn't like merkins banging on about Amerika and wants them to go home.

    I tell ya,if you didn't know people better on this forum,you'd swear that they couldn't even find SEA on the map.

    If Boonie and surasak were banned from issues,i'm sure they would both go into withdrawl.

    Withdrawl from one saying that his mob are correct and visa versa and never for a min do they ever change their minds or listen too each other.

    Be interested to know what a newbee think of these threads....

    My head hurts. Not from any comments here, but from having been thumped earlier.
    Maybe US Domestic should be a protected forum, minimum postcount and US passport required to post in there, so all the US bashers like Lil' Chuk will be kept out.
    (As a mod, I could still participate, of course)
