The people taking this thread seriously really crack me up.

Here's the problem. You (meaning ofdabeat and others) can't get into an extended argument ridiculing backpackers and bickering back and forth, then say "lol it's not even a big deal you're taking this too seriously." You were a large part of the escalation. If you want to back out now then apologize. Laughing off the people that you clearly offended and who definitely are justified in being offended is not cool.

Between "making fun of backpackers" and "personal attacks and insults to ofdabeat" there is a big difference. I'd never apologize to somebody calling me a nazi.
See you are a backpacker but nobody attacked you. Even if I'm pretty sure I'd not like you at all in real life.

Well to be fair I'm very possibly going to be doing graduate work in Thailand which would require me learning Thai which I can't wait to start. I don't consider myself a backpacker in the vein that you described, but at the same time I certainly have no problem with that lifestyle, which I why I posted.
I regret that a few posts on an internet forum would lead you to believe that you wouldn't like me at all in real life. Also, the possibility that you find yourself blameless in all this worries me.
