Exclamation Whiskey Tangos

Whiskey Tango (WT) = white trash:this is a term used by some guys when referring to white women with bad attitude.

This incident will illustrate it.

Two days ago a friend was walking along Beach Road and met two white females.He tried to be friendly and asked them if they were enjoying their holiday.He was then given a torrent of verbal feminist abuse interspersed with more swear words than used by a trawlerman.They started spouting of about how all these white middle aged guys are here on holiday picking up Thai girls.

Perhaps they should ask themselves why so many men are content to be here and not have to be politically correct in their home countries.

I actually get a really odd feeling when a farang chick gives me the eye - was in The Pizza Co (Sorry Crustacian - I know the steak in Faulty's are the best but was in need of a snack) - so there was a cute early 20's farang chick smiling away like a Cheshire Cat - for few moments I was in shock - still she was a nice girl and we chatted a bit. So I guess sometimes need to give the WT a fighting chance.

Good story! So typical. But that is not what white trash means in the US, which is where the term comes from. White trash applies to men just as much as women, and it applies to white people born into the lower social classes, whose parents had little education, and were not able to advance very far in life.

White trash usually live in poor neighborhoods and often in trailer parks, thereby getting the name, "Trailer trash," which means the same as white trash.

Also white trash are sort of like mutts. Their heritage is predominantly English, but often with many other bits and pieces mixed in. There are some people you would never call white trash. For example, if someone was 100% Italian heritage, you would not usually call them white trash, even if they were idiots, and never if they maintained any semblance of their italian heritage, and cultural values.

White trash implicitly denotes poor breeding. Anyone who was 100% of any ethnicity would not qualify as white trash. White trash tend to be the descendants of the English who were brought here out of the debtor's prisons in colonial times, or as came as indentured servants, but over two centuries have mixed in with other nationalities, especially(but not limited to) Scottish, Irish, French, and German. Since they were the lowest of the English, they were essentially the dregs of that gene pool. They are those who have been mired in poverty and ignorance for many generations, and never had enough good sense, intelligence and/or fortitude to rise above their humble beginnings.

Being white trash also implies crass cultural values. Occasionally, a white trash gal, due to looks, shrewdness, or good luck will rise to a greater economic level, especially if she is a fox who marries a guy with money. But because of her lack of culture and questionable values, she will always be seen as "white trash with money." Once you are white trash, it is difficult to rise above it, and only the best of them manage to do so. But poor people who have good values, and seriously attempt to improve themselves are not usually considered white trash.

My ex-brother-in-law was classic white trash. My ex-sister-in-law really seemed to rise above humble beginnings, smart, got a good education, good job, but when she started cheating on my brother-in-law, for no good reason, (he is a good guy, good father, good husband,and treated her well), then it could be said that her "white trash" roots had surfaced. They said, "Nice gal, but she was really only white trash to begin with, so perhaps we expected too much of her!"

To learn more about white trash, just tune in to the "Jerry Springer Show" on TV!

This is the exact reason sex toys should be allowed in LOS.....these two sweet lassies are probably so sex starved bcoz they are missing out on their usual holiday leg over with a drunken farang holiday maker on the prowl.....sometimes too much competition is a bad thing.

There are strange Thai girls too! Thai girls are also fine when you are lazy.

They have 2 religions :

1. Buddism
2. The holy bath

When you praise the last one, you got the girl in bed.

But farang girls will cost you more in the end. Especialy when these letters are used :

D.I.V.O.R.C.E

But c'mon fellows I had tons of nice white chicks. I am still writing after 25 years with my ex-Norvegian gf.She is very rich now, divorced twice.

Yesterday I went to an intenetcafe and talked to a nice blond girl. When I went out, she followed me.

I went to another neighberhood, and went into a restaurant. Shortly after she came in and smiled at me. So farangs chicks can be nice too!

The end of the story: I am allowed to go with thai chicks, not farangs, so what ever happend is no issue!

Tintin, I don't like to criticize non-English speakers for their efforts, as I would hate to have to be writing this in French!

But sometimes you can be very confusing. Here I was wondering why you make an issue of the fact that Thai girls like to shower many times each day, and what that has to do with their religion. After a bit, it occurred to me that you were not saying anything about how often they wash up, but about their avariciousness.

Thai money is called Baht, that's B-A-H-T. Bath is when you get in a tub full of water and wash your body, and sometimes is used for the shower also. Would you please remember that? I would appreciate it.

Also, while I'm at it. several times you have referred to men as "pointers". Pointers are dogs. The ones that stand still and point their nose and raise their tail when they have located game.

Men who drink at bars are often referred to as "Punters", that's P-U-N-T-E-R-S. That is an English word. Never heard it before I joined this board, so I don't know why they call them that. I think it is some sort of a twist on the word pint, since they drink pints of ale, or maybe it has to do with kicking a soccer ball about, and then going for a beer afterwards?? Never could figure it. But they are definitely not pointers(altho some girls might disagree with me on that point!).

Thanks for your time. Sorry to critcize, but would appreciate it if you could get those correct in your future posts.

Actually Thais refer to Baht as Bath as well, seeing as its not a direct translation.

Punter means anyone who spends money/time on something in particular - it seems to be most commonly used in regards to gambling, pubs and prostitution.

I think the approx definition for punter is someone who shops or spends money in dubious trades or pursuits... Gambling (primary usage), ******s, unregulated markets, investing without research, etc..

Also applicable to customers in a J Q Public kind of way.. This punter came in the other day and...

Thanks for the info.

As for the spelling of Baht, you can look in an English-Thai dictionary, or look it up on any foreign currency exchange on the internet(try www.oanda.com, for example). The correct spelling is BAHT.

Not sure if there is any correct spelling of Baht, seeing as its not a direct translation, Which for example is why you also see road-signs, maps, street signs and even legal contracts with miss-spelled words.

A search on "Thailand Bank Bath" brings up 980,000 pages
The same search on "Thailand Bank Baht" Brings up 563,000 pages

Either is fine, and are often interchanged even in the same document.

Tin-tin...I think that was a "DOG's" name, on TV...when I was a young boy, growing up in America.

No, it was "Rin-Tin-TIn". Close enough! Are you a "DOG", or just a "FROG"???

Let me get this??? Farang girls follow you around, and give you smiles??? Whooah!

Enough said! Go find your 25 year long, "lost love"! (if you're ALLOWED???) And, of course, if you're not too "LAZY"!
Can you say "woosey"??? (after all, you've "had", a lot of white chicks)

It's been suggested before, that you maybe should find another spot...to spend your holiday's. I agree!
If you can't play the game...then, don't plant the blame!

All I've read, (from you), in the past few weeks...is a bunch of self centered,
egotistical, immature, CRAP! You only want the "stunner", (but too cheap, to pay the freight), or...don't like freelancer's, can't stay out too late, (oh yeah, you changed your mind). But, they have to be "virginal", or un-used?? Get a lilfe, man! Who are you, Primodanna???

Of course, the one post you gave...that busted MY ball's was, following one of my own posts..(which included some photo's of a lady, that I care about..something about "bell-ringing")

You're response..."pablo, that FREELANCER, etc... (why, FL??? She's always around MTB???)

You say, "I thought of barfining her, before. But, too many faces, on the (one's before)".

I've been wanting to thank you, for that "sensitive", input! You, inconsiderate POS!!!

But, after following your recent posts....I realize, that you only consider YOURSELF, anyway!

Wonder why the "chick's", don't want to hang with you??? Maybe an attitude, (yours) they pick up on! Let's see..."I paid the BF, (with pappason, the night before...you didn't know), I paid your FEE, come and listen to me "whine", for a LT session!!!, I PAID you, so I own you"!

( you and your "lethal weapon"...give me a Fckn' break!)

I've wanted to PUKE!

I also, wanted to hold my tounge, until seeing you in person. But, I couldn't hold it any more!

No matter! I'll be around Patong, during "Crimbo" time, and after.

Maybe we will BUMP into each other, somewhere???

Aologies to the other BM's, for my "letting go"! Not my usual, style.
But, I've had enough!!!

No need for "Aologies" or even apologies Pablo , I have met you , had drinks with you, and know you are not the type of person to blow a fuse without good reason.

I think you have put into words what a lot of other BMs have been thinking , and in simple language that even TT should understand. Untill I have actually met and chatted to a BM , I can only judge them by what I read in their posts . So far , my original impressions have been OK , and the BMs I met on my last trip were the type of people I would happily sit and drink with. (Except when Denver is drinking Coke ).
Of course , there are always people who it's obvious you have nothing in common with , so you are polite and then move on . There are others , who appear to be on a different planet from the rest of us , so why even bother , I come to LOS to enjoy myself , not to listen to the "stories" of those who seem to find LOS such a difficult place to have a good time.
