I would have thought that with the availability of real women in Thailand, rubber ones would not dominate proceedings on my thread.
I suppose it make's a collective statement about the clientele here on TD![]()

Rigger, I know what you mean about shopping rage with one's wife. I hate the following:
Item Selection Rage. This is when my wife is holding a brand of toothpaste in her hand and is weighing up other brands. I can almost see her thinking "If I buy the other brand it'll be cheaper, but if I buy the one next to it I'll get a free toothbrush for a few baht extra. But the brand over there is a few baht even more but I'll get two tubes for an overall cheaper price etc." By this time I just snatch the toothpaste out of her hand and throw it in the trolley. .......but I'll take it out again and replace it with a cheaper one. But then I'll see another brand offering a free toothbrush and think.....
Aisle Rage. It pisses me off when navigating down narrow aisles and some Thai shopper just leaves their trolley smack bang in the middle of the aisle while they check something out or even walk to the next aisle to get something else. Although this does give me a little opportunity to play dodgem cars with the trolleys and try and knock it out of the way with mine. But if the shopper actually turns on their 'spacial awareness sense' and sees me knocking their trolley out the way, it's guaranteed they'll move it a whopping 2 inches to one side even though there'll be 2 foot of free space either side. If it's a female shopper I'll pass her with an almost audible "Khoopkhun Maa...Khap". If it's a guy I'll say fuck all in case he hears me and hits me.
Blimp Rage. This is when I catch a blimp of a nice bit of female ass in another aisle and want to check her out up close to see if her face is as good looking as her ass (?). Usually it's at a time when my wife's still deciding on which brand of cotton buds to buy and asks for my advice. Doing so usually interupts my sexual fantasies involving the recently seen ass and cause me to snatch the buds out of her hand and throw it into the trolley. But then I'll catch sight of some cheaper ones....and so it goes on and on and on...

I have an excellent remedy for this.Originally Posted by Gazza
I impose my own shopping trolley parking fine system.
I simply pick up an item costing about 100 baht and drop it in their trolley. Most will never notice until they get home![]()
Too funny. Sounds like something my Dad would do to extract a little justice in this often cruel world!Originally Posted by Thetyim
As for Ms. B; her most annoying trait is busying herself about, cleaning or some such thing when we ought to be having a little rest and refreshment out in the garden. Of course, guilt sets in and I get up and join the fray.
Grrrr.
My wifes english is a lot better than my Thai. And in my opinion it is about 200 times better than most immigrants here. But when ever there is some problem she always blames it on the english. oh I am sorry I don't understand english to good![]()
Don't under estimate the power of stupid people in large groups!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![]()

Issan fish sause, does have a odor, at that.
My girlie puts the toilet seat up after she's had a piddle. Doesn't really annoy me, but it is a bit weird...
Yup. If you've ever had "issues" with a woman with regard to toilet seats. Thailand is heaven. It is just such a non-issue.
Mmmm...........Might be an idea to let Butterfly check "her" outOriginally Posted by benbaaa
Think this is common among farang here fuckin drives me crazy, she wants to "Dun len" to me that's like a walk in park or country side. Nope. Fuckin Central or Rbinson. Fucking people in them places I need something I go buy it and get the fuck out. I FUKCING HATE "SHOPPING!!!"Originally Posted by Rigger

reading through the posts its clear that many Thai laydeez carry the same set of habits. I can certainly see most points raised here in my tee lac.

Whilst the war department is spending Lao's GDP, the kid and I have great fun trolley jacking unattended aisle blockers and ditching them by the sushi stand.
sticks a fking metal thing in my ears when I'm sleeping
Of course, we sometimes drive them crazy too! Here's a little gem from Stickman:
Question 4: What is the most "farang" thing your husband does that gets on your last nerves and you just want to beat the hell out of him for doing it?
Mrs. Stick says: I don't like the way farangs worship the truth. Farangs always want to know every last detail of what has happened, when it happened, why it happened etc. I can't understand this. The way that some people always insist on knowing the truth can be damaging, and can hurt people's feelings, both when people keep asking question after question, and then when they eventually find something out, and then use it against that person.
I suspect that there was an interesting discussion or two in the stick household recently!
She's close, but not quite on track. Most of us Western farang are visual thinkers. We like to have the big picture all filled out. We plan for the future, we envision consequences, we like what we call "closure" and resolution of the past.Originally Posted by qwerty
Thai people are mostly auditory thinkers, so all this angst over filling things out is very discomforting for them. They think about "me" and "now" and that's about it. They just don't want to be bothered by contemplating what will happen in the future and resolving what happened in the past.
It's interesting, though, that she calls that worshiping the truth.
Well thats part of our culture and when we come here we dont just become Thai over night and forget who or what we were.
Thai's need to try and understand us a little better.
It's nice to get somewhere near the truth, especially with your partner. Reading between the lines and filling in the gaps can crack these personality enigma's most of the time.

Sadly, they don't and probably won't. The key is to try to figure out why they think and act the way they do and adjust your expectations accordingly. Otherwise you're just going to turn into another Smeg, and we certainly don't want another, do we?Originally Posted by Helicopter
