The Misfit Foreignor Epidemic in Indonesia

Why is it I keep meeting total loser Americans and Europeans? Well, I have a theory. And I am sure many have figured it out before me. It’s because Indonesia and many countries like it, are letting all the riff-raff in. They are letting the trailer trash, the misogenists, the cads and the bizarre in their country with exceeding easy visa requirements. These are the people who are not succeeding in their own country so they move abroad. Many times they are fat, balding men with mediocre money looking for younger wives. Because it is so hard to get a visa to the US, we usually end up with the determined and hardworking of a country like Indonesia. It is a shame they end up with so many losers. And when I start judging these losers too harshly, I do like to remember that maybe they are doing well here. Since people don’t have the cultural background to UNDERSTAND that they are losers or blowhards, maybe they can get more accomplished here. Just maybe. Or maybe they just spend all their time talking about how important they are, how much money they make, how they like “boobies” and generally enlightening the public with other winning topics like a man I met who will remain nameless. I hope I am not one of them.
