E-cigarette drug ring busted in Bangkok: Meth-infused vapes
Nip it in the bud. There is no up side to vapes of any kind. It is fast becoming the new entry level platform for nicotine (and other) products. By adding flavours and other things, it is primarily designed to hook young people into using them under the illusion of being cool. These marketers are driven by greed and have no regard for health issues and focus on entrapping the undeveloped minds of our youth to become the life long consumers of their products. Let’s not kid ourselves that they’re the healthy alternative to cigarettes. This is far from the truth.

Very Donald Trump-ish with his appointments. This just keeps getting uglier.

Chiang Mai police invoke 10pm curfew after samurai gang rampage
Off with their heads. It seems like there is a world wide trend towards the use of bladed weapons by young people as the weapon of choice.

Durian Seller Found Using Inaccurate Weighing Scale
I used to think that too but now I rate it as one of the best fruits out there. The only pitfall, I'm told, is the high cholesterol.

Bangkok Chaos: Pickup Plummets From 4/FL Hospital Car Park
I'm not going to hazard a guess as to what happened. Only one person knows for sure. The good news is that, luckily, no one was killed.

Former Minister Itthipol Free Amid Pattaya Condo Controversy
Well this has to be a surprise for everyone. Nice to see Jabbah’s watches in the media again. It’s been a while.

Israeli Pensioner Robbed and Abandoned by Motorcycle Taxi in Thai Tourist Town
You have jumped to so many conclusions here. You’re obviously a very compassionate guy but I only hope I never have to depend on you if I’m ever in need.

A big orange t*rd would be a more accurate description

Public Indecency at Wat Phra Kaew Spurs National Outrage and Debate

I’m sure Buddha would be more forgiving of this child’s actions than all these thin skinned, righteous netizens.

Another oxygen thief wasting a good skin. Put her down.

Trump Likens Biden Administration to 'Gestapo' at Private Donor Event
And yet he has thrown his full support behind the modern day Hitler in Vlad “the impaler” Putin. Go figure.

Air Pollution Skyrockets in Chiang Mai
It used to be that air was free but now it’s gonna cost you. Your life is the going price. As much as I like CM and CR it’s a great place not to be for 6 months of the year. It is downright unhealthy and depressing for that period of time.

Three Thai Beaches Make it to the World's Top 100 List
40 years ago I would have rated many beaches in Thailand as world class but, alas, those days are long gone. The fact that Pattaya is on the list must throw some doubt of credibility upon it and the author of such a list.

Thai Maid Inherited Fortune from French Boss
Newton's third law is at play here. A nice and thoughtful gesture will hopefully enhance and better the life of another at the expense of one's own. RIP

Foreigner Assaults Phuket Tuk Tuk Driver Over Fare Disagreement
Tuk tuk drivers in Phuket do have a reputation for rip off behaviour so it is very conceivable the Brit was scammed. If so, I can understand his reaction. I agree with an earlier comment whereby the video does pick up on a smirk from the driver as if to say “gotcha!!” Now he’s in the frame for financial compensation for being the victim. Only two people know the truth of what happened and one of them is a liar. The Swiss Dave incident has potentially opened up a whole new opportunity for scams of this nature. Not that I believe Dave was scammed but the outcries from his behaviour have got the tills ka-chinging all over the place.

Ex-Police Chief's Wife Suspected of Seeking UK Citizenship to Escape Charges
Surely UK police checks would not allow this to move past first base.

Big Joke and high-ranking officers are summoned by police
Even now I’m not convinced. I do believe there is an even chance that he’s been set up to stop all his meddling and investigations into police corruption. One is as likely as the other.

Russian Businessman Arrested for Alleged Assault, Illegal Weapons
Not a good idea. Ukraine already has too many of these thugs that they have to deal with. Lock him up for 5 years then <deleted> him off.
