is SR expats page full of idiots?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

thats the trouble with this generation, i would say it is a certain generation or type of person but the facebook/twitter/snapchat disease has taken over many generations, to the point where my brothers 1-2 year old son can work an iPad better than me, although he doesnt have a manbun yet
the only social media platform i use is Facebook, but its mainly for scrolling through my newsfeed when im bored, i seldom actually post anything, probs once every 2 weeks ill upload a picture to let my family know im still alive and doing something interesting,
my mum sometimes messages me and every now and again ill get back to her with a random thumbs up

tbh its one of the main reasons i like being out here, it might be getting bad here, but back in England, its fucking hell, beyond hope or repair

Funny how western women of the "Eat pray love" stereotype have invaded KoW.

They need someone to hold there hand on the tiniest things like getting a tuk tuk or where to find the market.

Damn just walk down the street and its all infront of you ....

Or are they just attention whores who can find google search.
Just fcuking clueless....
Pretty much all of the Expat FB groups in KH pages are full of tourists and short-termers nowadays. 99.9% of the questions could be answered with a quick search.

yup before i came out to asia i pretty much spent weeks asking google questions and 99.9 times out of 10 someone had already asked the same question on Tripadvisor/Thaivisa/K440, and you just read the answers there, why so many people want to be special snowflakes and want their own threads/comments about such an easy/simple/common question baffles me, some peoples questions can be legit and/or might be out of date,
but posts like this which happened today from the "Employment in Sihanoukville" FB group:
Hello ... how can I extend visa past 30 days in cambodia. I am now in PhnomPenh and have Canadian passport. Also, what should I expect to pay? Does anyone have recent experience?
Thank you..

Well when you can't even find an appropriately titled group to ask a question, there's not much hope for some!

And for every buyer, there is a seller.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
