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!

But would Steve and his old church story really have a full bar of people that enraged?

He tried it on me, was more entertaining than anything else. Unless he’s getting into some new more serious scams nowadays.

He's got more than one story

And yes, I think the right crowd would lynch him

Resilient little shit
He's been in and out of jail all his life. He was jailed in Siem Reap for a couple of years for stealing a handbag/ phone or something. Last time I met him he said he'd just gotten out of jail after being caught with some marijuana, but that might have just been BS.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Maybe not Steve, I don't think he was a gay.

Crazy baldhead used to call himself William, from my experience.

He "went for a meeting with colleagues" at Star Bar. Don't they have offices and meeting rooms in Siem Reap? Or does he actually mean an after work boozer, not a meeting?

That's about the only part I find mildly interesting about this story. If you think the bar owner is a cnut, just don't hold your business meetings there anymore. If times are as dire as he makes it sound, that's the best punishment anyway.

The gay Khmer guy was mistaken for scammer Steve (who can normally be spotted at viva by psar char nowadays). His English boyfriend got all worked up and made a mountain out of a mole hill. I wasn't there but some mates were.

"look there's that fuckin' American Dave!
"don't you mean Scammer Steve?"

"That's not him- it's some gay guy "

"whatever- he'll do- get him!"

Steve (was William when I met him) doesn't look like the boyfriend of the OP, does anybody think they would be confused for each other?
