The farang guy you meet in the bar doesn't know his (Thai) wife's real name.

I'm in the fortunate position of not having a Thai wife, in fact a wife of any description. A side point - my ex ( I know her real Thai name ) lost her ID card. Her last name was Khamsoi ( or so she thought ). When she provided proof to the ID card department she gave them her uni degree who had written her last name as Kamsoi.
A battle then ensued between ID dept and uni about the correct transliteration. The Uni won, and my ex had to then have every document she owned under the Khamsoi name changed. It took her three weeks - an administrative nightmare.

You know you're in Thailand when.......
You consider the fact there might be a snake hiding in the toilet in your local rural restaurant.
And I'm not joking. Thaiblether's Aunt owns a fish farm and restaurant. The toilet block is about fifty metres away from the restaurant, and is dimly lit. The walk to it is always a concern cos, although I'm not scared of snakes, I don't like the idea of one getting a jump on me.
So there was me moaning about having to traverse such a distance at night, then having to peek inside to see if a snake was waiting to mug me, when my Thai companions said - "Don't wollee, no snake here." Just as we were eating snake soup containing a snake caught in one of the surrounding paddies.
One replied - "don't worry snake, snake scare mak mak pom pui farang. Snake see you, run away."
Uhuhu.

Yup - and when she prays to the monks she says "look after Meh, my sister, my dog, and tell ting tong farang in Sweden/America/Germany send me more money - I lose all when that bitch Nung switch card at poker."

That's when you know you are doomed.

When you use Google translate and come up with answers like this -
พรุ่งนี้ ฉันจะไปกาดซักกำ
"Tomorrow I'm going to wash carrots bundle." -
One of my Thai pals just posted this variation of the translation she found via another online translation service - same text.
"Tomorrow, I will go to guard suck come."
Which would have been good news for the guard - bad news if she had sent it to her farang female English teacher 55555
