I think that people who live in Thailand just for what they can suck out of it, rather than becoming involved in the society (which would include learning the language) suck. For me, it was important to feel involved.

i also think it is important to get involved in society - and helping them to learn english by my refusing to learn their language is part of that.

i consider it a service.:)

And of course once again, define success. I am not a loser because, I am honest although it may hurt people, i work for a living and dont depend on other people, I have friends that like me and I will never settle( or at leats I dont think I will) and that is enough to say I am not a loser

I think that if you have your health then you are a fool to call yourself a 'loser'.... And there are plenty of folks with a clipboard at the end of their beds who would tell you so, if they could.

"I would never want to join a club that would have me as a member"
(Woody Allen)

Being a loser is not being able to do what you want, what you were born for, what makes you truly happy.

another drunken post- apologies:bunny3:

I only post when I'm drunk on here these days - I wonder why that is

^You've forgotten your password and can only remember it when you're drunk?

Or you have an evil girlfriend who doesn't let you post, so you have to drink her under the table first?

Or.........

Groucho Marx, I believe.

Loser (n): A person who acts in discordance to who they believe themself to be, i.e. A policeman that steals, or a thief that purchases.

"Success, happy, loser, winner."


They are.....labels


Be wary of labels.

going native doesnt actually mean you're invovled.

what is thai society nowadays? in the city - its shopping, and malls and cars and parties and clubs and cafes - dont have to learn the language to mix in....

in fact I found a certain element of society (hiso and hiso wannabes) actually disliked farang speaking (or attempting) to speak thai. (maybe something to do with the percieved fact that most farang learn to speak thai from bargirls and hookers.... !?

I have reached all the goals I have set for myself so far so I wouldn't class myself as a loser.

Being able to speak the lingo or not is no indication of one's motives.

Yet another "Smeg argument" wasting bandwidth and O2.

a great man once sang......


Every loser wins, once the dream begins
In time we'll see, fate holds the key
And every loser knows, the light eternal shows
Will shine on you, and all those who knew
We nearly made it

.....sometimes I pray
but I'am a atheist and have no God
I pray and say "Thank You"
thank you for living
thank you for this great life
whoever is responsible.....


Does that answer your question?

Two kinds of people in this world,
Winners, Losers.
I lost my power in this world,
Because I did not
Use it.

(Lindsey Buckingham)

^isn't that one of the women from Fleetwood Mac?

No, Lindsay Buckingham is the hot guy from Fleetwood Mac.

ok it's a guy - but I got the band right.

so there was Stevie Nicks but who was the other chick?
