so much white priviledge and entitlement in the story [/ QUOTE ] Thank you. Plus, thinly veiled disgust for most things Thai. Who can disagree with that? What the [censored] are you two even fighting about?

Re: Beat: Convicted of Playing Poker
probably the longest thing I've ever read on 2+2, but worthwile. What I think a lot of people don't understand is that it wasn't so bad that he was in jail for however many hours it was the fact that they had no clue of what was going on with the system.

Last time I went to a country and they weren't speaking my native language I killed 'em.

[/ QUOTE ] Whatever. Keep wriggling and drive the hook in a bit deeper. BTW is English your 1st language? [/ QUOTE ] I feel embarrassed for you. Here is a Link that will introduce you to concepts known as Resolution and Logic: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resolution_(logic) Try to make it to this bit: "In first order logic, resolution condenses the traditional syllogisms of logical inference down to a single rule. To understand how resolution works, consider the following example syllogism of term logic: All Greeks are Europeans. Homer is a Greek. Therefore, Homer is a European." There are lots of other links for you to explore on that page, you might even have some fun whilst you learn. 1) Did I say "The Thai government and all their officials are endemically corrupt and have been for years." Why, yes I did. 2) Did I say "all Thais are corrupt"? No, no I did not. 3) Would it be fair to make that inference from the information given in comment 1)? No, you would have to be stupid. 4) Are all Thai people officials of the government? No. 5)Did I make a joke about that guy's gf being an ex-whore? Yes, I did that and I laughed. I just laughed again...childish I know. 6) Does this mean that his gf used to be a whore? No, no it doesn't. 6) Does this mean I think all Thai women are whores? No, it doesn't. I'd also like to point you towards the post where I mentioned that I'm married to a Thai woman who has never worked as a prostitute. This would seem to be a fair indicator that disputes your accusation, I hope you take it under consideration, sir. Also, if I truly thought that all Thai people were corrupt, I wouldn't be running a business out of Thailand either...but I foolishly thought you could weave these threads together on your own. As for English being my first language? LOL, sir is pleased to jest and I enjoy that. English is one in a long list of languages that I speak and write better than you, son.

Re: Beat: Convicted of Playing Poker
LMAO
I doubt you understand logic at all. But let's try some: 14 Post troll explains from his high moral perch how -OP is stupid -All Thais are corrupt -All Thai women are whores looking for walking ATMs -OP's gf is a whore Then tells us how he DIDN't say any of those things, even when presented with his own words. Therefore, reviewing your words and ridiculous backtracking of them, I should assume A) You are brilliant beyond reproach OR B) You are a conceited selfserving douchebag troll I'm going with option B as all of your grand 14 posts so far have proven little of A and a lot of B. PS How old are you and how much younger is your Thai wife? PPS Is it warm in your little world where you can preach, insult, and lie then claim to have done none of them? PPPS How many languages do I speak? If the answer is "You don't know." Excellent retort at the end SON.

Re: Beat: Convicted of Playing Poker
Can please everyone stop pretending to be a f* elitist/playboy/friend of every thai government officials/never been to nana plaza/never pays only go with nice thai girls/ fluent thai speaker surrounded by people with degrees and great jobs/ in those thailand threads and be nice to each other ?
pretty please That's so f* stupid everybody knows we live here for the booty, the sun and the relax way of life and nobody cares if our girlfriends are ex-hookers/daughter of the king or if we drink chang beer with ice. I start to understand why some farangs living in thailand avoid the other farangs as much as they can.
