My girlfriend is constantly making me laugh with the
things she says to me on the phone. The other day she had been to and back from
Bangkok in one morning and had done a lot of walking around. When i called her
for our daily chat i asked her if she was going out. She replied ( well what
sounded like) " My i dont work"
i kept saying "what do you mean you dont
work", and she kept laughing,
i said "i know you dont work" , "no no" she
replied "my i dont work, cannot go out", "what" i replied. "your iron?"
"no
no......i!"
"Cannot see i no work"
After laughing for 10 minutes
trying to understand what she was saying.
I worked it out her eyes were sore
and she was tired!!!!!
Anyone else had the same fun?

Once when we lived in the US, we were watching a show
where a salesman was selling used cars on tv from a local dealership. He was
jabbering away about the great deal offered on a certain car and said to " hurry
on down because this car wont last long". My wife asked me, " why would anyone
want to buy that car if it wont last long?"

It's not only the girls that come out with these corkers.
After a long night clubbing a mixed group (thai/ farlang) sat down for an early
breakfast, after the initial ordering and arrival of various foods and drinks
one of the Thai guys with us announced, and I quote " There's nothing like a big
cold cock in the morning."
After we all picked ourselves up from the floor,
got the laughter under control and explained to him what he'd just said, he
announced that from now on he'd be drinking pepsi.

I once was trying to explain to a bar girl that most of
my ex English girlfriends turned out to be sluts, she asked me to explain this
word ''SLUT''. I told in simple terms it was a person the fu--ed as many people
as possible no matter if they were married single. She thought about it for a
while and proudly told me she was also a slut also.

his wife: 'Is your wife lady?'. Fortunately, he realised that she meant, 'Is

In a hotel in Ubon when a bemused friend came down to the
bar to say that the maid had propositioned him, knocking on the door and asking
"are you lonely?" to which he replied "No I'm ok thanks" and closed the door. We
were a little surprised, good hotel, stayed there many times, never experienced
anything like that. Then he said..."the thing was she had my laundry in her hand
and when I came back out it was hanging on the door."
Cut to scene of my
wife (Thai) chokeing on her Margarita...when we revived her she said "they can't
pronounce their "r"s up here...the maid was saying "here your laundry..."
Over dinner: "The cooker in here no good".
Call
him "cook".
"No you wrong, you paint, you are a painter
you drive, you
are a driver, you cook, you are a cooker..."
How to fight such logic?

I have a friend who is married to a thai lady since many
years and they spend a few weeks every year in Bangkok. This isn't something
"the girls say", but something funny that happened to him when he spoke very
little thai. I don't remember the exact words, but he went to a store and wanted
a bottle of some sort of oil, but confused the words and actually ordered a
bottle of "female pee". Needless to say, the entire store almost died laughing.
He didn't notice what he said before he went home to his wife and told her what
was looking for.

Reminds me of a similar incident when I
just started working out here. Had a note left on my desk asking to see a Thai
member of staff. Thought I'd be a smart a*se and practice my limited Thai with
her.
Walked up to her desk and tried to say "did you want me?" in Thai I
thought was "khun ow phom mai?"...
She was in hysterics for five minutes,
during which a crowd of more Thai staff had gathered around to see what was
going on. When she came to her senses, she asked me to repeat it, so I did. Now
the entire crowd was in hysterics.
When they all came too, I asked them
for the real translation of what I just said...
"Do you want to f*ck me?"

I went

served to fags, aftter paying and collecting my change i told the one of ugliest
looking thai men i have ever see, that i loved him.
I asked why all the

During my first visit to Phuket a couple of years ago, I
spent a week with a friendly but short tempered strumpet who looked upon me
favourably enough to let me ride her moped.
As we rolled and bounced through
the muddy puddles, past the rows of bikes outside the Family Mart she told me to
"Pork the bike".
When I had finished laughing I looked around to see that she
didn't look amused and couldn't understand what was so funny.
"Sorry" I said,
"What did you say again?"
"I tell you pork the motorbike, you not hear

my Japanese wife stubbed her foot one night and screamed,
"oww, my fingers" So I started looking at her hands and she said, "not those
fingers! Those fingers", pointing at her feet. I of course learned later yubi =
finger and ashi yubi is your foots fingers.
She also asked me to give her
my Sesame knife! any one want to venture a guess?
But I have made grown

I once called a Japanese girl I

Turns out the words I used
were the one I should use when asking to marry her, not get her to come to the

speak and suck in Japanese have only one sound which is different.

One danger here, is the misused English
word.
Example:
Our secretary speaks virtually no English (I speak
passable Thai), and one day I cam into her office where she was talking "girl
talk" to several of her mates. So she sees me, and says "chop golden
mai?" (Do I like a golden?)
Long silence from me. The only thing I
can think of is a slightly weird sexual practice.....
Then it clicks. She
has a picture of a dog on her desk..........a ha! "Do I like golden
retrievers!!!!"
I didn't have the heart to tell her.
