Swell wisdom given from Offshore
Flexing like a BIGHOTDOG? Are we. Glad to see you are Offshore and Swell. Go on with your bad self!
[QUOTE=OffshoreSwell;2976530]Kind of Ironic this one. The forum is slowly getting taken over by hordes of oversexed pensioners and bule's who wander around these places with google translate in hand and referencing their every experience against what they previously got in Thailand, Phils, Cambodia etc. (Which they have now destroyed with the exact same behaviour) Or what they read that punter abc managed to achieve in classic field report number eleven thousand four hundred and three. [b]They don't understand while they are demanding this and that on google translate that the girls just don't want to kiss them because they have halitosis, their gut hangs down over their belt and they generally treat the whole thing like they are buying a horse. It's not attractive to them and believe it or not. They have standards and dignity too[/b].
If you hung around these places long enough you would notice that some of the girls can be a lot of fun and the locals are here to party which these girls can certainly also do.
So is it any surprise that the staff here view these punters as a walking ATM. You stick out like sore thumbs. Try and fit in a bit and you will find the requests for funding will drop away. They only ask because the last guy that looked like a long socked version of Mr Bean gave them some money when they asked and you all look, move and wave translate around the same way so why not try it on?
You draw yourself up to your full height and fix your best "Did you just fart" look upon them and they will very quickly get the message.
[b]They are only asking because you look like you are lost. Which unfortunately for all of us you are, both physically and figuratively.[/b][/QUOTE]

My lethal weapon is my mind. So, I am going to put some logic downrange and blow holes in the stupidity being express by an individual who does not even have the testicular fortitude to use the quoting process correctly. Need I remind him what thread we are posting in and that the ignore function is available to him.
[B]What country is he from where they don't tip?[/B]
[QUOTE=HotDog666;2976556]Ha. Jealous? No, I think it's actually pathetic and contemptible that you think you are entitled to call this guy "your chef" for the few crumbs you throw at him.[/QUOTE][U]Number 1[/U]
HotDog666 is a small minded thinker: [B]My Chef is a female[/B]! If you actually quote what I said: "She is like my Personal Chef" is what I said. I then went on to describe the services she provided me. If that is not something that I should tip for then I don't know what qualifies in your book. She might very well do the same thing for you even though you are a cheap mother fuck who has no flow to build his stack and that is why you remain concerned with mine and how I spend it.

HotDog666 is a victim of the [U]Poverty Mentality[/U].
The same mother fuck that will not tip is now call me [I]pathetic and contemptible[/I] became I do. The mother fuck does not know the costs in Pattaya, Thailand otherwise he would not made such a idiotic statement.
[U]Number 3[/U]
If I was to take my Chef to Lunch for Thai Food it would cost me 50 - 100 THB (1. 41 - 2. 82 EUR) to buy her food. That is routinely the amount that I tip her when she is in the restaurant alone during a slow period and I am certain she will get it directly.
It is a friendly business relationship. When mother fucks like HotDog666 are detached from social reality and therefor they cannot understand relationships of any kind unless it involves paying for social / sexual services from a prostitute in Jakarta.

[QUOTE=HotDog666;2976556]And you say you understand strawman fallacy. I couldn't give a fuck about your personal tipping habits other than any corrosive impacts that it would have on mine. I have explained several times why.[/QUOTE]I don't care that you don't tip. I only engaging in [B]Ad hominem[/B] attacks because you started with that shit. No free shots! You still have not presented a single fact the supports your hypothesis that tourists from the United States of America propagated the idea of tipping.
I have told you before: If you don't like to tip, when someone asks reach down and see if you have a pair. If you do, just tell the person no.

Many references to tipping in the Jakarta Threads
[QUOTE]I gave them each 200000 for a tip and the one girl commented I thought you were going to give us a good tip. I told her it was a good tip. She eventually apologized and said thank you.[/QUOTE]Is the issue with me personally or the idea of tipping? I ask again. Because I do not see anyone else being challenged by tipping. Right there in Jakarta.
