Shortlist of places:

Vegas, USA
So you think that Vegas is a good idea when online poker is banned in the US plus you have to be 21 years old to play the casinos? Why should any one help you when you ask about thailand and then take the moral high ground as soon as someone mentions hookers? I lol when the first question people ask me about thailand is ''so is there any real girls in thailand because i dont want to bang hookers????'' lol, its mostly by people who have never left the UK before or else they would realise how dumb that question is, do people think every girl in Holland is a hooker because they have a world famous red light district? no so why would thailand be any different? As soon as you travel S.E asia you will see that Thailand is the best place because it balances affordability with a good standard of living. Phillipines is a polluted dump, cambodia is really poor, singapore is boring and expensive, South Korea is great but expensive to live in etc. Thailands the best choice because the rest are un-balanced, plus they have hookers

Without checking I don't think we even mentioned hookers? He seemed to have an aversion to women per se

LOL at this 19 year old kid. Women probably think he's like 14 because of his babyface and then just ignore him.


So funny seeing a nerdy kid talk about about standards. Such a funny post.



And + to that guy who posted that picture. Haha.

Haha. It's funny because i'm probably a better poker player than you, better looking that you and apparently definitely more intelligent than you according to your post. You wouldn't know it though.

I'm not a nerd at all to be honest.

''Women probably think he's like 14 because of his babyface and then just ignore him.''- I know, all the time mate. I'm constantly mistaken for a child when I buy lottery and alcohol.
