It would be okay if they thought I was a white guy so they give me a fork to eat my rice, but they don't have forks. And they still asume I can not use chop sticks, so what do they do? They get the bloody bulky assed Japanese soup spoon that is too big to go in your mouth (coz it is for slurping soup) and give me that, expecting me to eat rice with that. Now that is insulting. And I always have to ask for chop sticks.

On an unrelated matter, and why I think I wont go back there, is the last time I went I told them I wanted my Samurai rice, and my main course, like always, but the main course comes with a bowl of normal rice. I wanted both bowls of rice given I am... constantly hungry! So I tell them, Samurai rice and this dish also please. But they must think it is too much, so they replace the rice on the main dish with the Samurai rice, so I only have one bowl of rice. When it comes out I tell them I wanted both, like I ordered. So they order me a bowl of plain rice. Now, what pisses me is not the mistake, it is human to make mistakes, but when they changed the bowls of rice on the main course it raised the price of the dish, and then I had to pay extra to get the normal bowl of rice which is usually free with the main dish. Now, the whole thing cost me about 15 Baht extra, which is not much, but when I told them at the checkout that this cost more for what would have costed less for the same dish had they not fucked my order up, they didn't seem to care, and they would not give it to me at the proper price because it was simply too hard for them to do given the orders were computerized.

All in all, I am not going back there. Retards.
alright...i'll give you this ....

In the shadows beneath the trees he waits.
In the darkness under the moon he plots
In the silence of the night he kills.
