I have heard ไปไม่ถูก "I don't know how to go there" several times afterwards, and if translation hadn't been in a comment here, I would have been as puzzled as first time.<br /><br />I should take this as an intelligence test: ask the boy where exactly he is, tell him which (combination of) bus/MRT/BTS/ARL/BRT to take, and call me when he is at the bus or MRT, where I will pick him up. That would eliminate those who are too stupid to follow these simple instructions and those who insist I pay for taxi.ChristianPFChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14308749125539367002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8304897538463565568.post-38065803484142669582016-05-15T15:52:16.866+07:002016-05-15T15:52:16.866+07:00Last week, out of the blue, message from Pun.

Just back to Bangkok.<br />Pun: When can we meet?<br />CPFC: I'm free now.<br />Pun: I'm free, too. But I don't have money to go to see you.<br />CPFC: Then we meet next occasion.<br />Pun: Ok.<br />I just had a friend visit me, and was tired from traveling, otherwise I would have invited Pun (offered taxi fare).<br /><br />I had a taxi driver who used "bpai mai took" - "I don't know the way" (from Ramkhamhaeng to Sathorn!), and upon me telling him I know the way, he replied he wouldn't know the way to come back.ChristianPFChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14308749125539367002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8304897538463565568.post-15390690146362439382016-04-27T11:59:06.467+07:002016-04-27T11:59:06.467+07:00Yes.

A pilot...I'll answer using an aviation analogy. A pilot faces the same options twice in every flight: on take off and on landing. Aborting a take off is done for numerous reasons (commonly failure to achieve ground speed required for rotation while there's still enough runway to stop). On landing, common reasons include traffic that hasn't cleared the runway or a "too high" approach. In any case, once a decision is made to reject a take off or landing, it's never changed.<br /> <br />Now to your situation. Unlike the pilot, you have the luxury of being able to weigh the pros and cons leisurely before aborting further adventure--or, more accurately in this scenario, misadventure. I think you knew fairly early on how this was going to play out but you chose to continue because the prize seemed irresistible. We've all done this to some extent (myself included). In pursuit of the perfect mate, however, you seem to willingly ignore the warning signals and continue your approach. Fortunately you haven't crashed but you appear reluctant to learn from experience.<br /> <br />ABORT!
