14-21 without the extension?

@John ********

your iPhone has 2 Sim slots?

@Lynnette ******

I mean maybe? But it worked on my previous phone. My theory is that some standard is similar, but not exact in a way that makes this phone not work on the networks correctly. It is also a wonky model of the phone that they didn't continue to make- maybe that is related. Dunno, I've only got the one data point.

@Lynnette ******

my USA Sim doesn't work in the USA.

@Jacob *******

Oh, I'm not asking for me. I was curious if you were throwing western shade on the 60% of the Thai people who only own plastic sandals.

@Jacob *******

you think sandals are a problem?

@Steven ********

how old are you? I've got a sister-in-law and an aunt that need for marrying.

@Bogusz *********

@Bill *********

every time I've done that they prank me! They give me a perfectly reasonable western breakfast and then a giant spoonful of beans. Hahah England very funny!

So in my younger days I looked enough like Leonardo DiCaprio that it got commented on from time to time. Titanic was very big here and when I first arrived, like most single guys, I wasted some time in bars. The following dialog took place about 50 times:

What is your name?

Jack

Ohhhh hahahaha Titanic!! My name is Rose!!!!!

Because of the Leonardo connection I would totally lean into that.

The other dialog that happened a lot was:

Me name is Jack.

Ooh like Jack Daniels hahahaha!

This one is less fun for me so I would say "no my name is Jack Dawson" because that is the character name from Titanic. This would get a massive laugh every time- whatever.

Fast forward a few years. Married now. In a taxi with my wife and we pass the Jack Daniels restaurant in Bangkok and she says "honey looks, Jack Daniels like you" and I say "no I'm Jack Dawson"

Silence.

Then shyly my wife says "baby, I must tell you something. People do not laugh because of Titanic. In Thai language 'daw' means dick and 'son' means short"

So for like... A year... I would announce to groups of women that my name was Jack Short Dick.

Omg. Bwahahaha!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy a laugh at my (our) expense.
