It just means you have a fetish. Don't fret.

From Buriram, 26, has money problems, has an 8 year-old daughter and speaks decent English - I think I know her. Does she have a one syllable, three letter name?

33,000+ Thais in Israel/Iran all safe for now.
Gsxrnz replied to MalcolmB's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I don't know who is safer - the 250+ Thais in Iran, or the 2.1 Million Arab Israelis in Israel. -
Since the classification relates to construction costs, I would suggest the costings would relate to a shophouse style. It actually appears to be three shophouses, as the second picture shows no continuation of the dividing wall between the neighbours to the left and right.

I'd say it's a shophouse.

Crime Woman 52, Caught After Snatching Gold in Khon Kaen
Gsxrnz replied to Georgealbert's topic in Isaan News
The 2011 first car tax rebate and borrowing to rebuild and repair after the 2011 floods set the ball in motion for rocketing household debt. Covid borrowing was the cherry on top. I think HH debt reached 95% of GDP. Thailand is in a debt spiral and is now suffering from reduced domestic consumption as debt servicing is eating up more and more of their income. -
There's a reason I taught myself to say Far Cough Noddy in eleven languages, including Swahili.

Next to no damage so the driver can't have been going that fast. -
UK Aid Budget Strained as Asylum Hotel Costs Surge Amidst Overseas Cuts
Gsxrnz replied to Social Media's topic in World News
For 10% of the hotel costs they could pay for an expeditionary force to occupy the entire French coast and strongly dissuade the foreign invaders from launching their landing craft. But preventing the invaders from leaving French soil isn't on the agenda of Labour or the Conservatives. In fact, quite the opposite. -
Motorcycle tyres - any advice please (bad roads)
Gsxrnz replied to Martinpeter's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
OP - changing tyres won't help (much) riding over the piece of road in your picture. Observe from behind another scooter riding on the same surface - look at the motor and rear wheel in relation to the floorboard and you will see the whole "frame" warping on every bump due to the frame design, and cheap-as-chips suspension. Some after-market adjustable suspension that can adjust pre-load, damping, and rebound might help. A steering damper might also help. But hey, it's a scooter and not practical or feasible. Best advice is to use decent tyres with a general purpose tread and experiment with tyre pressure. Don't go above the recommended pressure, a recipe for disaster in the wet. A slightly lower pressure will help grip and braking in the wet. Avoid the white paint when braking or leaning, especially in the wet. As somebody has already suggested, don't have a "white knuckle" grip on the bars, hold them loosely with bent elbows. Avoid the straight arm grip style. When riding solo over the section of road, shift your weight as much as practical to the rear and specifically don't have your weight leaning on the bars - this takes weight slightly off the front, meaning less impact from the road surface. Standing up dirt bike style will also help, it just depends whether you're prepared to look like a muppet. -
UN Urges UK to Scrap Chagos Deal and Protect Chagossian Rights
Gsxrnz replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I'm considering lodging historical reparation claims against the Celts, Jutes, Angles, Saxons, Romans, Danes (and Scandies in General), France and Germany. I suspect the melanin content of both the protagonist and antagonists in this fantasy might be an issue. -
NATO Chief Urges UK to Boost Defence or Learn to Speak Russian

The Europeans seem to be begging for a war to solve their domestic problems. I suspect they may well start throwing stones first. -

And then they add the service charge on top. The missus pockets all the change - Thais don't believe in tipping. -

Right of way in Thailand is governed by vehicle mass. It pays dividends to be aware of your place in the pecking order.
