Heavy rainfall warning for north, northeast, central and east Thailand
Economists and Meteorologists are allowed to get it wrong more than half the time and still keep their jobs. I look out the window and can make a better guess. Objectivism comes in handy every day.

Transvestite Arrested for Robbing Male Victims
Back to the future, when a spade wasn't a shovel, and a transvestite was a bloke who wore women's clothes.

Sell the house. Sorted.

The state of your average expat in Thailand.
If they can't utter a sentence without using the F word, I tend to avoid any interaction. Another good test is if their knuckles are dragging on the ground. Funnily enough, some of the nicest blokes are the ones that look as though they got dressed in the dark and are a walking fashion crime.

Who is older, your wife/girlfriend or you?
My wife is 36. My girlfriend is 26. I'm one year older than their combined ages. I leave the math to the reader.

Reckless car drifting stunt in busy Chon Buri intersection sparks outrage
No smoke, no skid-marks. Drifting Thai style (driving in circles). Hell yeah brother, you're not on the Cleetus McFarland youtube channel.

Simp Service
This happens to me all the time. I just thought it's because I have a face like a burglar, and they assume I'm about to nick sumfink.

Suthin Wants To Exchange Chinese Sub For Either Surface Ships Or Fertiliser

Deviant sexually assaults ladyboy, forces her to perform oral sex
Ironically, woke-ist dogma decrees that even though the perpetrator possessed an allegedly bent penis, we don't actually know their gender. Hypothetically, the perpetrator may identify as a woman - potentially making this a female on female offense - even though the criminal and the victim both had 2 veg and meat. Actually, I vaguely recall a Monty Python sketch along these lines.

Go to Homepro or any other similar retailer and you will find ready made drapes as per your picture. The drapes are in a multitude of sizes and shades (pun intended) and the selection of curtain rods is virtually limitless.

Doctor Reveals Concerning Symptoms in Thaksin's Condition
Dollars to a jar of rancid fish paste says he'll be ensconced under "house arrest" in a mansion befitting his fragile state of health within a month. The only burning question is what were the numbers preceding the nine zeroes of his merit-making gift to facilitate the homecoming. House arrest a la Thai will mean don't vacation on Mars, otherwise no pompem.

Thai Authorities Hold Seminar on Building a Port for Large Cruise Ships in Pattaya
It will work the same as on the roads - give way to anything bigger and heavier than you, or suffer the consequences. Cruise Liners will be the Concrete Trucks of Pattaya Bay.

My lady call me Big boss
It's a Thai play on words. They are actually saying Big Bot, because they can't say Boss. BOT = Bank of Thailand. Big Bank of Thailand. Or maybe Big Bot Darkling.

AI being used to translate ancient Thai texts on traditional medicine into modern language

Family Mart Convenience Stores in Thailand to be Fully Rebranded to Tops Daily
As most Thais can't aspirate an "S" after a consonant (especially a "P"), or partially aspirate the "P" itself, Tops will be referred to as Top.

Tax overhaul: Thai excise department plans restructuring to close loopholes
By definition, the stuff they call non-alcoholic "beer" is not beer. Weaselpiss is a better description. Otherwise, grape juice would be called non-alcoholic Wine, and apple juice would be called non-alcoholic apple cider.
