You completely missed the joke. I would never want to say something nasty to a local nor was I asking for nasty things to say.Spigzy wrote: ↑Sat Feb 01, 2020 8:24 pm I can’t repeat it here as it could get a member killed if used in the wrong situation; the 0.01% where it won’t is with Khmers who have known you for years and treat you like family & know you’re just showing that you’ve got a filthy sense of humour & command of the language. Even in that setting, still dangerous.
Why would you want to say something nasty to a local anyway? We’re visitors in this country, have some respect and simply say the usual “fuck off” if you must (tuk-tuks cutting you up or whatever). Beyond that you’re asking for a beating & the police/locals are only going to take one side.
Cambodia: where money can buy you absolutely anything except intelligence.

If you make a joke online, then best put a or or something. It's hard to be subtle on the internet. You need to spell it out.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

The following is not offensive, but is a total waste of breath.
"Do not take out loans with huge interest rates than you can't pay back"
"Do not hock off your wife's land at cut price to pay off your exhorbitant bank loan interest"
"Do not buy a Lexus (even second-hand), when you already have problems to pay all your debts"
All this I have said to family, then they say yes, and carry on regardless. (Not joking.)

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.

You don't have to say anything specific. If you disrespect a local and shame them that will be enough. Then don't be too surprised when someone sneaks up behind you six months later and chops you in the back of the head with a cleaver. Read "A head for an eye" by Hinton.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
