Yep, you're truly a childish, keyboard warrior clown. Nobody cares about spelling on FB! But you're desperate to have a one-man celebration over something, anything. I think you're actually jealous some have a successful, independent life and all you can is that try to drag them down from your keyboard with your increasingly preposterous flailings. Refocus, redirect, and realize: you are a see-through annoyance. Nothing more.

@Iliyan **********

What an asenine comment. Do you walk up to cops and ask if it's okay to jaywalk or speed? You're not a serious person. You lie like a rug, use you keyboard to finger wag, scaremonger, and make up friends and lies to flesh out your imaginery world. Redirect your energy to something production. Something real.

@Iliyan **********

Yeah, yeah... You're all in on your silly story and sillier scaremongering.

@Iliyan **********

Baloney, pal. Just making stuff up to win a FB dispute. You Googled the name of someone who actually got deported and are inventing "all those people close to me..."

@Marc *******

Hahaha... ... ewww...

@Greg **********

With you. I'm going to add my "opinion," too, and just say that in addition to degenerate, disillusioned expats, everybody there--expat and local--only wants to know you for what's in it for them. I wouldn't even be surprised if Brian is touting Pattaya because he's part of some bar down there.

@Aake *********

BS.

@Iliyan **********

Regularly cracks down on remote workers? Yeah right.

@Lincoln ******

I'm not talking about missing pizza. I get what you're saying. I'm talking about those dismissing a budget of 50k. Those talking about rents along upwards of 100k. It does not take years of assimilation, though. Some can cook at home most nights (or eat out but eat local), make do in a 30-40m2 room and generally live reasonably well but on a budget from the get go. I agree with having "balance."

@Av *********

You are correct. Some expats are physically in Thailand but that's it. They blow far too much money on Western food, booze, gated communities, satellite television subscriptions and whatnot, not fathoming that anyone else can live comfortably without recreating a Western bubble around oneself.
