    I can honestly say that I have never been bored here in Thailand.

    To the Western mind, the extremes are so stark, it's a 24/7: "Jesus! Did you see that?" and "What are those good smells coming out of the kitchen?" etc.
    Or rather more accurately; 'Why do they they use such foul and disgusting smells to mask poor quality food'. We already know it's going to be shit, so why make it smell bad too?

    Such frustrations inevitably lead to boredom. The longer you stay, the more certain you are that nothing will ever change. Military trying to scratch the surface only adds to the frustration and everyone knows, it's all pointless anyway.

      Yep.
      Gets down to what degrees of stimulation, thought process, or predispositions.

        Indeed.

        I've encountered Farangs here (mostly Americans) that absolutely hate this place. They find the food is terrible and just the notion they're not "in Kansas now Toto" to be overwhelming.

        Fine with me as there's too many of them here these days IMO...
        God, the panic within the Dems, MSM, and left must be horrifying...realizing that Joe is really the best they've got.

          Since I am only a frequent visitor to Thailand it is never boring. Like visiting a strange and unworldly relative. If I ever do get bored I just go for a drive. Jesus never boring on the hi ways and bi ways in Thailand lol.

            Wasn't aware that your Jesus traveled by way of what is today known as Thailand.

            Though, it was historically suspected that he spent numerous years, secretly, wandering and residing throughout South Asia.

              On the whole Thai food is terrible, but so is much American food.

                Agree 'American' food sucks to a large degree but take exception to Thai cuisine - there it depends on where you eat it or, how you cook it. How much real thought and interest gets put into the menu.

                  True of every international cuisine.
                  Thai ingredients were, and still are very poor in many cases. The tradition of adding spices to mask poor quality ingredients still goes on today.
                  The reason most Thai kitchens are outdoors is because even Thais don't want the awful stink in their living space.
                  Adding chillies to rancid pork is no substitute for Aussie imported beef.

                    Of course.

                    When you understand flavours and use quality ingredients Thai food can be great. Unfortunately most Thais are as good at cooking as they are at brain surgery, and that's just the ones who have restaurants.

                    Similarly, my missus makes bugers that Ronald McShite could only dream about.

                      Where do you find Thais consuming gone-off pork?

                      Either, you keep different circles or just make shit up, per usual.

                      The latter probably applies.

                          Gee you must be having a real tough time of it today! Obviously an attempt to feel manly or in control, Thai mrs giving you the heave ho? So to feel good about yourself you attempt to insult and an individual you have no knowledge off? No red and a vulgar remark, sure that will again follow. You are still having problems in figuring out that TC is rather more refined than the school yard banter you seem to take pride in. Look, try being social instead off trying, to disparage or demean people here. TC exists to be different than TD partially because of the increasing negativism that people like you displayed on the dying place. The idea is for people to post here. Negativism and immature behavior is seldom attractive to the more adult and mature poster we are trying to attract.

                          Since you seem to be an expert more in the field of JC why not post on a forum that specializes more in your field of expertize, Just a suggestion like. I am sure in real life you have had many such suggestions before.

                              You could always try frozen imported Aussie beef encased in plastic.
