That wasn't lost on me. I see you left that stinging comment to near the end. That's so you got the "point"! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Rooster, that so well describes so many here and their comments (on multiple subjects). I've been here 22 years and I've learned that people cannot be generalized nor are they stereotypical. I really enjoyed your article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gimo Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 What about about who have come to Thailand on and off for over 30 years ( some 45 years ) , for periods of 2 weeks to 4 or 5 months , and that give their opinions in bars , on TV etc ? Do you consider them to be Youtwitfaces ? I was in that category until spending 6 years in Thailand , so I'm out of the YTW group . I find the opinions of these long term regular visitors ( LTRVs ) interesting . They often notice changes that I miss , and some of them become significant over time .
