I have a real life one for Bangkok called “don’t learn Thai”. Given the banal conversations I can hear in English around me together with the posts of the third-rate minds of some that lurk here (on my Ignore list) I’m confident I miss nothing of importance

Or maybe you don't know everything under the sun like you seem to think you do. Who knows, maybe if you opened your eyes a little more you may learn a thing or two.

Remind me - aren’t you the person who consistently “knows better” for every piece of advice anyone has ever offered you on this Forum?

Yes, sometimes I will talk in Thai, because unlike you, I didn't isolate myself in a farang ghetto that consists of a 3 block radius.
