I rather prefer the Thai inconsistency over the total ignorance of other Airlines!
Did you mean '...arrogant and snotty Farang airline Attitude' ?

Otherwise I sincerely apologise if you feel my comment was in poor taste - I intended a somewhat in-house (culturally) remark to those who have lived in Thailand for a bit and have experienced the highs and lows of life there.

Rough translation I hoped was 'welcome to (the) Thai style', with a slightly negative or self-deprecating tenor/humour. My Thai family and friends certainly have expressed this sentiment of Thai 'complexity' to me over the past 30+ years.... They, more than I ever will, experience this themselves.

Probably a poor metaphor, but I consider (say) SQ to be rather like a tube of Pringles, with each crisp boringly predicatable in consistency; whereas TG is more like a bag of [insert brand] crisps where each crisp is different and some are small or broken, but sometimes some are perfect.

Enough rambling....
