I stuck with more practical stuff like:

juu con pom yi muang chang. chop mai? = My penis is big like an elephant. Like that?


Side Note: juu is actually a boys penis. So it sounds cuter than the more vulgar words like 'khuay'. Plus contrasting it with an elephant gives it a little extra fun.

Good one ATM!! Slight correction, though. The second word would be cong or kong, not con. You could actually leave it out entirely also, since when they speak they usually do omit kong when indicating simple possession. But it is more correct, in the formal sense, to include it. It is bascially the difference between saying, "My penis," or "The penis of me." The latter is more correct, but the former would be more normally used. Being too correct, sometimes gives your speech a stilted sound, and most girls don't like that. You sound a bit like an English teacher, well, in this case, actually, a Thai teacher, which is a bit of a contradiction, coming off sounding like a teacher, when you can't even speak the language. This is an inherent problem in learning to speak correct Thai.

Not that it really matters. Mai pen lai, khrap!

P.S. For the sake of guys who might actually try to use that line, the "yi" is normally spelled "yai" and rhymes with why. And "muang" is incorrect, it's "meuan"(no ng ending). Also chang sounds like chung.(Does not rhyme with sang, rhymes with sung).
