So you like people hacking up and spitting in the pool your swimming in, like listening to Cambodia soap operas, cage fighting and Opera on tv while you are trying to workout? Do you like guys in the locker room staring at you or beloning to a gym that epitomizes greed, homogenizing of Cambodian's in to consumers, and supporting a Chinese monopoly? Then you prbaly dive a large gas guzzling , polluting car and you belong at "The Place" Gym/ The locals have a name for those of you that work with NGOs and Embassies and then spend you money there, but too rude to say for now.
Wow someone sounds a little tetchy. Going anywhere would be a choice thing in my opinion, if you don't like it don't go would be my opinion for what it is worth.
Dearest Rainbird,
You appear to be new around here. My name is Elwood and I would be quite happy to rip the piss out of you if you wish to keep up the dumb-arse comments aimed at no-one in particular. By the tone of your rant above, I believe that a good solution would be for you to go down to the Air Asia office on Riverside, fighting your way past those lecherous, AIDS ridden scalpers and the urchins which pollute every street crossing, buy yourself a nice cheap ticket to another country and F@#K THE HELL OFF SOMEWHERE ELSE YOU IDIOT!
Or you could simply try Khmer440.
Yours with scant regards
Elwood
@elwood- lmao, thanks.
not sure which on of these applies to rainbird, so i thought I would add them all.
I must say i am very disappointed to see the vehemence expressed here - i thought this was the more civilized expat forum. Mr Ellwood especially seems like someone who has abandoned the proprieties of civilived discourse like so many in the world these days.
Cambodia, for all its faults, is at least a tolerant society. Lets try to demonstrate our respect for divergent opinions, eh ?
Dearest Rainbird,
Please make that 2 tickets. It appears Mr Frank wants to come along with you.
Yours Insincerely
Elwood
@rainbird - there is a suggestion box in reception fo the place...make use of it if you dont want cage fighting, soap operas, snotting in the pool etc.....jeese.
I think Elwood is way out a line with that nasty response - sumthin in the OP must of touched a nerve. they don't even write like that on k440.
Elwood wasn't out of line because Rainbird was on a ethnocentric rant and asked what we though. Elwood answered honestly.
Rainbird would have gotten a much more pleasant and helpful reply if he/she had have just said something like, "Can anyone recommend a good gym, preferably one that will accept nambypambies?"
I think Rainbird needs a foot massage.
Where's the cage fighting, is that a new bar on st 51?
Dearest Rainbird,
By joves. At this rate I am going to have to charter a plane to get rid of all the whinging donkeys in here. Please make that 3 tickets now that jollibee will be joining you. I hope the three of you are seated next to each other on the plane, right in the middle of the "SE Asia Expat Mums" 'Newborns on Tour' trip. You deserve it.
Yours scathingly
Elwood
Dearest Rainman,
I am attempting to decipher your comments, questions, statements, rant.
Maybe Mr. Frank can decipher your 'divergent opinions'?
Don't take any notice of Elwood. He was at the beach recently and hasn't cleaned the sand out of his vagina. Do they say 'vagina' over at K440? or are they more civilized and say 'private parts'?.
Rainmac, I am interested in other ways of saying 'filthy white scum that washes up on our beaches'. Please share?
wowzers! what a place! nice, friendly people...
2nite my first time here, really. and i'm impressed!
Just don't whine and you'll do fine.
No honestly whine about something and watch these haters jump on it like a crazed kangaroo
