Hey . . enough of that. There is only room for one grumpy old bastard around here, and that slot is taken.

The issue wasn't the reason for the post; I don't need to vent about every little frustration. Was more annoyed with the tourist in the end than the Khmer.

I've managed to wangle my way into two different temple sites for free, one in Battambang and one in Kampong Thom, by asking them what the tourist price is. Then I tell them that I'm not a tourist - I live here and speak your language.Miguelito wrote: The park police wouldn't let me into Angkor Wat for free despite my Khmer passport, because I'm white.
I was happy to pay, just thought I would chance it... and it worked.

Yes, but you were doing or saying something in public that was sufficiently anti-social and attention-grabbing that a third party stranger decided to intervene and have a word with you. And now you have taken to the internet to rip that stranger for being a clueless buttinski.Miguelito wrote: The issue wasn't the reason for the post; I don't need to vent about every little frustration.

Yet you oddly won't say how you were behaving or describe what the dispute was about or why you thought a Khmer was lying to you, which leads me to believe that the other person was in the right to speak up and tell you to calm the fuck down.
You shouldn't jump to conclusions that Khmers are dishonest or publicly berate Khmers for no reason or freak out about a Khmer wasting thirty minutes of your time.
Time has no value in Cambodia, you know that, even the tourist knew that.

So who's the biggest K440 baller: Miguelito or Jackrossi? I used to think it was Logos and his vast business interests, but It seems like the Italian investors have stepped it up a notch by building factories, mass housing, buying citizenship and giving out loans to generals.

I don't know why you think that as I never had any serious business here. A couple of dodgy websites but that doesn't really count, a few old apartments and mostly land I'd bought over a decade ago that alas all went to my ex.
A bit frustrating when I realized its global current value is probably well over 3M now, but to put things in perspective it had cost me about 20% of that over time, when the €/$ rate was around 1.4
What works for me is to make money in the West and spend it here.

Know several expats who are just fucking horrible.
Always ask "how much" to fucking freak out and start arguing with the toothless moto-driver on a 20year old bike who had no fucking idea were this english twat wanted to go and just had to come up with something.
"I fucking live here, i offends me". So what, its not like the Khmer dont bargain, but the barang should get the correct price straight away coz he fucking live here? I just get so sick of that behaviour. Just fucking say what you want to pay instead of picking fights.
Constantly saying "thats to much" when you say what you paid for something but never be able to get anything for those prices themselves. Geting into fights instead of just admitting they are fucking dickheads who had to much beer talking shit. Like one guy who wanted to go 2km for 2000riel on a moto, 2 big barangs. We walked the 2km coz he refused to pay more after telling me thats the correct price. Same guy who freaked out coz the tuktuk wanted 1$ extra, who also went 1k to pick us up, and had to wait 15min coz this fucker ordered a beer same time we had set with the driver, "they always late, no problem". No, you are always late you fucking dickhead coz you always buy a beer coz ur a alcoholic cunt i told him back.
I really cant stand those zombie-alcoholic-expats. They seem happy in company of eachother. I just stay away.
