When you turn around when someone says "hey Farang"

When you start agreeing that if you dont like being ripped off,then F*** off back to your own country.

Start thinking its economical to squeeze 20 people in a pickup.

Really believe your GF/Wife is truly 100% different from the others.

Tell everyone she's never asked me for a single Baht.

Live out in the village so long that even the Thai's think you've turned Native.

Come into Town once a month for shopping,and feel homesick after 2 hours.

Take a couple of pineapples or something for your friendly Officer at Immigration Visa check in time.

Have contacts in the Police (usually the head man of the Province)

Think Lau Kow is not too bad a drink really.

Prefer to Associate with genuine Thais.

Look forward to the occasional boiled chicken feet, and deep fried cockroaches meal.

Enjoy Barbecued Rat cos they are the clean ones out of the fields.

Start getting up at 4 or 5 in the morning,because theres a lot of work to done,on the 3 Rai farm.

Believe that the spray gun for cleaning the bowl is really there so you dont have to use toilet paper.

Start breeding Pigs for an Hobby.

Come up with a great new idea for making a fortune: "Open a Bar"

Wear Large Baggy Shorts with at least 20 Pockets in them.

Send your wife out to work in that "straight massage parlour"

Get your wife a water delivery round,and only realise months later it was costing twice as much for the pickup fuel.

Become a recluse in the Village and think everyone in Town knows your name.

Think that Tesco/Lotus are the best Supermarkets on the Planet.

Knock up 1000s of posts on Tv.

When nothing you see here in the glorious “Land ‘O Thais” ever gets more than a passing glance.  :D  Be it the inane antics of the indigenous natives or the insane antics of the foreigners  :ermm: .  

As an example; last year I had guests from the US who’d never been here before.  I stupidly agreed to walk with them down the Sukhumvit from Asok to Siam Paragon.  :bah:  

It took several hours as they had to gawk at every thing I routinely walked past without a glance; the limbless beggars, an elephant ‘parked’ outside a 7/11, the tourist junk they sell on the sidewalk, the 5 people holding arm loads of groceries on a moto-cy, and things too numerous to even begin to mention.

Just goes to show how much you learn to ignore if you see it every single day, day in day out.  :P

You know when you've been living in Thailand too long when........ you naturally know when it's "unsafe" to fart with confidence.
