A day in the life in Southern Africa

[BLD]

aaah, shoot. Mudhuts. Not midgets.

You will see the occasional San person around here, I grew up learning about the Kalahari bushman in geography class, but I don’t think that’s PC anymore, and midget certainly isn’t either.

But they are not dwarfs, which is a genetic mutation, they are just a short group of people.

The gods must be crazy great doco

Bunch of white men playing horse football in the middle of Africa. Classic.

A while back..in Australia some white guys wanted to go hunting fox's and rabbits on horseback except there weren't any. So they imported there own. Didn't work out to good .

Are you a modern day colonial armo? No pith helmet or sedan chair just a beat up Nissan micra with a pommy flag painted on the boot. Availing of 7/11 night caps of Leo on balmy bangkok nights as the turds bob by on fetid klongs

I seriously doubt that your physical stature changes your continued loitering around various schools looking for...well...I think the general audience knows. The regular reference to "teeny" tells the tale.

I'm sure he isn't superstitious
and the number 13 doesn't worry him.stumpy .

5 foot 10 and well you know it!

If you're ever on Tinder, apparently you need to write in at least 6 feet

6 foot+ with an erection.

Tax, you do know this thread is about a day in a life and what was posted was just that yet once again you post in threads with what comes across as a grumpy old coffin dodger whinging from a barko- lounger. Its becoming common theme with you.

Why don't you start a Life in Hua Hin thread and show all of us how interesting it is. All the hikes you take enjoying nature, the community pool you share with multiple tourists sipping wine enjoying windy sunsets? Better yet pics of the mall there with all the expats sitting on the steps wondering if their pension check will be enough to cover food and a few nights at the expat bar? Don't forget to show that incredible "Floating Market"

because unless you are e.g. a rock star or a president, peoples daily lives are mostly repetitious and boring. especially when diarised for others to read.

i could post my daily activities, i am rarely bored, i find a lot with which to occupy my time, but if i described what i do to you, you would say its boring. just as i find your daily activities (ride to the lake, change a tyre, eat a steak, drink tequila, watch the football game, go shopping, feed the dogs etc) boring when repeated for the hundredth time.

the first few pages of your thread were interesting, just as the first few pages of willys thread were interesting, but its all repetition. after the first few pages we all know what your life is like in the north, and what willys life is like in africa.

your efforts in posting so much are certainly appreciated but unless you are going to be e.g. climbing everest or restoring a 1959 cadillac or corvette, its just the same old same old time and time again.

and imho the readers boredom is increased because neither of you are blessed with the necessary literary skills that turn the ordinary into the exceptional. your writing styles are not particularly colourful or humorous, your descriptive powers are not awe inspiring and the threads are not unputdownable page turners. there is no meat on the bones, there is very little colour in the palette. its ordinary. reads like it is written by AI.

i am sorry but that's how i see them, and maybe that's why i interrupt them.

the offshore thread by mendy is a different kettle of fish. its different every day, and he has a way with words and emotions that draw the reader in. likewise his daily life thread. it just has something that makes it a little special, bld also has a writing style that draws one in, grammatical errors notwithstanding. the fat twat has the uncanny ability to make utter bullshit interesting. as do a few others here.

anyway, that's my take on it. make of it what you will.

[Stumpy]

Fair enough Tax. Some of us posters post for fun to bring a slice of living abroad. It's really nothing more then passing some time while taking a break from our days. Its these posts that keep the dying TD alive. However you spend a copious amount of time making shit bag comments in some which raises questions as to why.

But I do understand that maybe seeing Soi Dogs fighting and shit in beds and sit on tables interests you along with chickens and maggots in chicken shit but that doesn't mean what others are posting isn't interesting to others.

[Edmond]

^ Don't forget your funny meltdowns, freakouts, fantasies and flounces.

well sort of. i'm not sure what the reference to soi dogs and shit in beds is related to, but nevertheless td is indeed a broad church, nobody expects to find shakespeare or john le carre posting here, but it seems to be the kind of place where we can post the kind of stuff that would get us arrested, assassinated or cancelled should we voice it in public. and there are fewer and fewer of such places around these days.

Why, thank you kind sir. For the words of encouragement I will crack on . Watch this space. Innit

And who could forget the 20 other nics you've had over the years. Mao, luigi etc etc. maybe you want to be taken seriously? But you sure don't make it easy to do so.

[Edmond]

^ A known and documented multiniker, who regularly multiniks, and was multiniking just 2 weeks ago with his beerlaodrinker multinik account, accuses another poster, an innocent poster, of such abhorrent behaviour.

Ya couldnae make it up lads. Ya couldnae make it up.

What are you implying?

Tell that to BeerLaoDrinker.

[BLD]

2 nics. Not 20. Beerlaodrinker is still languishing in the td jail after bail was refused the nic is still active but I can't post using it. Dunno where you get yer info edmond. Are you also a mod

[BLD]

Maybe you also want to be taken seriously yeah nah.

[cyrille]

Hammered again, or just your natural stupidity?

A change of nic is very different to multinicing. Only a complete moron would try to imply otherwise.

[Edmond]

Are you a mod

It's common knowledge that I have been a mod for years. Why?

[Edmond]

What are you implying?

Not sure what he's implying, but he certainly has recurring fantasies about 'loitering around outside schools' while fixated on another man's 19 year old girlfriend. Quite worrying.

[39TG]

Many 19 year olds are fair game. They've been around the block many times. But be wary, they can be experts at exploiting simps and sugar daddies.

[Edmond]

Then they're in for a shock if they hook up with Ed.

[BLD]

Hammered again, or just your natural stupidity?

Are you one as well cybil? Gosh. That would make 3 absolute twats on the buttons.

[taxexile]

A change of nic is very different to multinicing. Only a complete moron would try to imply otherwise.

would you like to explain exactly why?

we know why someone would want to have more than one identity on a forum, but what possible reason is there for changing your nickname?

personally i would be more wary of a bloke with an affinity for spanners, wrenches, leather belts, oily things and rambo style ATVs and who regularly meets up with other men, possibly moustachioed, before leaving their wives at home and riding 25 kms to remote rural locations to enjoy themselves cowboy style than men with the hots for 18 year old college girls.
