First we had 'cute kitchens'.

Now we have 'caused a surprise'.

Can someone (other than Kampong Spooner/UKJ) offer these guys free English lessons?

I'm pretty sure that they have enjoyed English lessons for the past 10 years. The results are -as we can see- catastrophic (and I'm not surprised).

LOL.

Despite hundreds of trashed motorcycles/buffalo/cows/cars/trucks, and tens of thousands of dead Khmers, all with red string tied around them, the myth of 'good luck' continues.

Cigol, obviously.

I must honestly say that 'it always causes surprise inside of me' when a local beach bunny enlightens authorities about the cause of death.

I would be surprised if he's from Europe. Don't they all wear those Speedos?

Hmmmm, doesn't look like blood to me.

O Vlad, under your educaitonal banner, their wood be no more typos or speling misstakes rite? Moreover, every Khmer student that you would be to have teach is now now perfectly in English.

Or have your decade+ experience in this hub of go-getters 'made the difference'? If so, I need your advice for when I open my school, I was thinking of courses in Internet Pettiness and Practical Vindictive Studies.

Back to OP, can't be a SHK expat, no tattoos.
