They missed the cheap Charlie expat not to mention the sexpat. Effing hate both of those types. Well I am proud to say I am a member of the Cheep Chaalee club, je suis Challee. Cheap derogatory language only heard in the sewers of Thailand. I drink in Thai places and NEVER hear this term, if it was ever used to a Thai man he would belt the serving wench. I am not afraid to stick my hand in my pocket and buy drinks, I dont care what you or the other guy is drinking, its nothing but a night out. I EFFIN detest this shoit being pulled by the latest batch of Freshies from upcountry. Was in a bar in Pattaya, guy paid the bill, came to 975 baht, gave the girl 1,000 baht. Serving wench, mai hai tip, not give tip? Farang, hai laew, gave already. Serving wench, cheap challee. Next minute all hell broke loose. Check bin, check bin, check bin, check bin. The old mamasan had to drag herself away from her Lakorn movie. What happen? Nothing happen. Why you go? Want to go another bar. Then out came the dont GAF wai, its actually more of an insult than if none had been given. Typical Thai, FACE, its better to lose money than lose face. Oh she new girl, she dont know (yeah effin right) she only want to make joke, more BS. There were at least 12 of us who would have drunk at least ten bottles, 120 bottles at 100 baht, profit for the bar, 6,000 baht. Never mind, not my money, not her money, some dumb farangs money. And yes these cheap charlie bar owners are quickly identified as well.

ทำไมไม่มาขอโทษ
Tam mai mai ma kor tort? Why not come and apologise.

I guess I have a bit of all three types described. With a smile I give free and unwanted advise. When I wrote that Thai might not be ready for democracy as we know it in the West I was also accused of associating with the dregs of Thai society with the suggestion to be dregs myself. So, all three. I guess I need a second mirror to congratulate myself

I no like you, why you come my bar want to make ploblem, you get out, I no like falang can speak Thai. Very much so...at the bars in Pattanakan I round the bill up to the nearest hundred whatever I have drunk. Never had any issue at all at any of them....mind you I like to drink....enjoy myself and smile whilst doing so. They know not to take the p**s and I don't speak fluent Thai...enough to get by and am known as a regular customer by all. They have azzhole customers to whit group I will not EVER allow myself to join.
