Chief, you’re nothing but a Turtonite Dalit that is over represented in the educational sector and who will be reincarnated as an insect doomed to live his life inside the walls of a buxiban - not much different from parts of his present life the pain of repeating the cycle of life!!!
I’ll have to look into it and get back to you on that one.

Oh, and don’t call me chiefy.[/quote]
Is this purple trollfuck getting familiar with you, Mr The Chief? Want me to hunt it down and kill it?
ppp, trolling is only good if you can write in a way that amuses your readers, or makes fun of a sacred cow or is in other ways witty or clever. Flinging shit at people who don’t care what you think is pointless, wouldn’t you agree?
He’s gotta find some way to take potshots at the people he hates. He wouldn’t dare do it to their faces, and there probably aren’t enough like-minded people to gather into a quorum. The only other choice is to stop being a dickhead, and that takes too much work.

Thanks anyways, Elvdrix.
This poostain ain’t worth interrupting a cabbage-egg fart over, let alone a week-long drunk.
Please carry on with your fine work.
Can I vote for the worst or does it need to be a separate thread? I just read strip me naked in the temple of heaven and it was absolute pants. Self absorbed ivy league wankress runs round china for 6 weeks and then claims it as a world conquest having come home early because her best mate went nuts - so would I if I had been traveling with er - seriously.
Oh I know wankress probably isn’t a word - I’m sure BCup will give me a better one.

Hmm.
That’s the problem with travel writing - only bores do it. The premise is crap in this age of cheap international jet travel. Who wants second hand ‘what I did on my holidays’? People who think being an expat is interesting and important enough to write about, in and of itself, nowadays are unlikely to be much fun; they can’t be particularly international if they see difference everywhere. Parochial, bourgeois blah.
I like ‘Seven Years In Tibet’, because the guy was actually interesting and had stuff to say.
It is a novel comprised of letters written by a Chinese immigrant to Thailand over a period of 20 years starting in 1945. It very much mirrors the life of a famous Thai immigrant to Taiwan. The man who founded the Magnolia Hotel.
Seven Years in Tibet was a great book.
Another one I liked was the Fruit Palace by Charles Nicholl. It tells of his fictional adventures in Columbia. It’s old like 1985 or so but it’s the low down on the cocaine industry at that time.
He also did some thing similar about the Golden Triangle, but I can’t remember its name.
