[QUOTE=Daddy07; 1293332]Well, I like sports (but not soccer, er, I mean European football) and I've never heard of Euro 2012.
Hell I thought it was all about the Eurodollar falling against the baht in 2012. Hahahaha!
Oh, yeah, I'm American. Maybe that explains my ignorance. .
I'll be watching the US Open this week. Have you heard of it? Much more important than Euro 2012.[/QUOTE]I would think there is far more worldwide audience for the Euro than the US Open. BTW, I am American, have lived here for 12 years and can't really watch American sports anymore and I have always been a huge sports fan. Football (soccer) is amazing. After watching it for a few years you will never be able to go back to the start stop start stop of most American sports and hey, we have the Thai Premier League here and it is fun to go and watch. The Euro is amazingly exciting. Golf; fun to play, but I'm with Nic on watching.

[QUOTE=Oldian; 1293483]Not really. I pull girls from the Thermae. If they want 2000, I politely tell them I don't pay more than 1500, and if they are fine with that, okay, and if they are not, well that is okay too. My experiences have been that the girls who are okay with it end up almost always being non clock watchers, repeats and multiple repeats, and are fun to be with and great in bed. The ones who insist on price, the very few that I have taken, have all been clock watchers and not worth it at all. And no, it has nothing to do with the less attractive ones going for less, it has everything to do with the initial contact one has with them and whether or not there is some sort of connection at least slightly past just "how much."
If you look at the Thai scene, say in the alley behind the old Siam Hotel, in Sutthisan, or elsewhere. 1500ST is the norm, which it has been for probably almost a decade now. The farang scene used to be cheaper than the Thai scene, but now it is passing it, and it has nothing to do with the girls being better looking or more talented or able to speak English. It more likely has everything to do with the number of people who are paying far more than they ought to be.
Ask a mid-upper class Thai monger if he thinks paying 2000+ baht for ST is an economic reality.[/QUOTE]I totally agree with the point on initial contact and that can make or break a session no matter how much you pay. My problem is with mongers who say that just because what they are paying is 5 times the average or whatever then they have the mentality that the girl should be greatful for allowing her to take their dicks. Perhaps the girl in question was simply indicating that she didn't want to go with him in a rather polite way given that over time 500 baht may not be very much to her either if she can pull in 3000 LT a night.
I don't think you can really compare Thai to Farang mongers because their scene is so much bigger and more varied than ours. Just quoting one data point doesn't really prove that Thermae girls should be cheaper in the end.

[QUOTE=NicFrenchy; 1293569]I could not have said that better. Americans are really ignorant when it comes to non-American Sports.
Actually, it's not fair to say that, because all countries south of the USA are fanatics of Football. Ignorance comes only from the USA side.
I am not sure which is more important, but US Open is pretty vague, they have Tennis, Golf, Surf. I hope for you it's not golf, shit, I'd rather be watching flies fuck than watch a game of golf[/QUOTE]Since my inquiry of the definition of "Euro 2012" started this line of discussion, I have to admit that I don't follow much team sports on either side of the Atlantic Ocean.
However, one of my hobbies is collecting military firearms. In this area, much of the United States and United Kingdom guns are, more often than not, found in rather beat up and abused condition due to their heavy use in driving Germans out of France, Communist Chinese and North Koreans over the 38th Parallel, Viet Cong and North Vietnamese out of rice paddies, and terrorists and despots out of controlling countries.
On the other side of my hobby, the French military surplus weapons are normally found in pristine condition since they were rarely used and the only dirt they got on them was when they were thrown down in surrender!

[QUOTE=NicFrenchy;1293569]I hope for you it's not golf, shit, I'd rather be watching flies fuck than watch a game of golf[/QUOTE]Yep, it's golf alright; the most sophisticated and difficult sport ever invented to play consistently well; the gentleman's game; the game James Bond played so well; the best thing the Brits ever conceived; the game the French just can't seem to understand, much less master. Their idea of sport is taking a pig into the woods to look for truffles.
Soccer is for the lower class uncouth hooligan's of Europe's underbelly; the one's who riot, overturn cars and set fires to shops when their team loses.
You could probably learn a lot watching flies fuck.

[QUOTE=NicFrenchy;1293569]I could not have said that better. Americans are really ignorant when it comes to non-American Sports.[/QUOTE]I hate to disagree with the ever knowable NotSoNiceFrenchy.
It is not that Americans are really ignorant when it comes to non-American Sports, but instead, many of us ignorant Americans have many professional sports to choose from and watch; unlike in most countries. We can choose baseball, football, soccer, hockey, and basketball, just to name a few. And many like car racing, golf, tennis, and other sports.
Your attack on America is getting quite fucking old, but then again, behind a keyboard, it is easy being a bully. I will be in BKK next month and would love to hear your perspective on life in America while face to face. BTW, I'm buying!

Round Two?
[QUOTE=Wolvenvacht; 1293644]I definitely seem to remember that the US came second place in the SE Asian War Games.
The best thing that came out of the war, is Soi Cowboy![/QUOTE]Next time you drop in Ho Chi Minh City, aka Saigon, ask all the officials there if they want to go another round with the US, South Koreans and Australians, again. You will be instantly deported and banned from entering Vietnam for anti-goverment activities and promoting treason.
Vietnam exports a ton of goods and services to their former enemies and fear their old ally, the People's Republic of China, more than their wartime enemies. However, they will probably be willing to take on their old imperialist master, aka France, since beating them doesn't take too much effort in any era.
In fact, the only time I remember the French Government having a successful military operation in modern times was when they blew up and sank the Greenpeace whale watching ship, the Rainbow Warrior, in the Auckland harbor in New Zealand on July 10, 1985. The operation was successfully carried out by the French Secret Service, Direction Géandérale de la Sécurité Extérieure (DGSE) , with two of the agents, emulating the famous Inspector Jacques Clouseau and his sidekick, Maxwell Smart, were caught by the equivalent of the Auckland Neigborhood Watch six days after the sinking of the Rainbow Warrior. And as the story goes, France imported and ate a lot of New Zealand mutton for the next 10 years.

[QUOTE=Pointy Stick; 1293304]They're discounting at the Nana parking lot at 2am from 1500 to 1000 pretty easily so maybe that's more your style.

Economic realities

Nana Area; Soi 7 Beer Garden. Should be "Fear Garden" due toe % of nasty acting, looking FL's. Most of the FL there are at same / similar to level of FL's in BKK Chinatown (Yaowarat) that get 500 baht ST room included. Massage on Petchaburi Road includes room, bath, happy happy for 12-1400 ST afternoon special (Angelina) and you get safety knowing it is highly unlikely you will get robbed. Rachada Road (High Class Massage) many cute polite staff to choose.
1900 baht. Way better than Fear Garden. Many more places also.
Fear Garden FL not there cause they like sex. They like money and hope to find a foreigner dumb / ignorant enough to give them 3X or more market value. Then you likely get mediocre service at best from someone that could be an immigrant from "planet of the apes". Actually an insult to the fictional inhabitants of "planet of the apes" since they evolved into a logical intelligent society.
Then if that weren't enough, you may need to listen to one of the many "sympathy story scripts" designed to extract even more money from you. Even if the FL's were all beautiful LOL, Thai males have zero interest in listening to these stories, even if one is occasionally true.
Even if you find a sweet young thing at a disco, odds are against good service and enjoyment as even mainstream women are not particularly good lovers. Then you may encounter the "I hurt" or "Tickles" or "I finish I go" Lord knows why Thailand became so famous for the sex business, it's certainly not based on quality but probably quantity.
Fear Garden FL's would love to see them post a sign "Entry limited to first time in Thailand males"

Oh, that word americans invented caus they already picked the name FOOTball for the sport they play mostly with their hands. That makes sense.
Just come up with a sport that was invented in America?
Baseball is a derivative of the English Game "Rounders"
Football was played as "Soccer" until the Canadians made it evolve more towards Rugby.
Soccer? There is no such sport. Football originated from England.
Hockey's Canadian.
Basketball's Canadian.
Tennis is French (Jeu de Paumes)
Golf is Scottish.
Racing? I am sure it started on horses somewhere around persia? But not sure.
Any Other sport you pansies are playing? LOL
