Basically its just a few people who need to tell others how much more cultural and in the know they are compared to most other Westerners. If you dont think its awesome that many Thai-people have racist tendencies against low-spending white people or if you dont think it is awesome to screw whatever local chick (which is ugly but that you can fool yourself into believing is hot because she looks different) you see then you are lame.

Every time you can point to a tourist and see how much more "touristy" he is compared to you then you get a point. If you know a few Thai-words or even have a Thai-friend and also refer to other non-Thai people as "Farang" then you are truly awesome.

Also if you go to France and go to see the Eiffel-tower and are impressed by its structure rather than just sit at a local cafe and behave nonchelant and not give a crap about the tower then you are so behaving like a geeky tourist and are not cool enough to be in the clique who has really "understood" the country they are visiting.
