  1. And big!
  2. TL;DR. Unless you're minted, connected and well attired (don't necessarily need to speak Thai), do not set your bar so lofty. Hi-so here is not the same as upper middle class in the West, where being tall & fit, nicely clothed and amusing can see you right. Also, from a Thai female's POV, being with a farang unfortunately comes with stigma.
  3. guy in room next to me wont stop smoking weed what can i do Join him
  4. PRC pushing its luck. I think they should be nuked (60 years ago), but that's just me. ????
  5. Eh? Valid comment calling out a semi-inflammatory post. Perhaps have a reread. Not a pothead by any stretch but reckon people should have a choice on this relatively benign substance. Regards helping poor people, clearly they can make money by growing and selling. Kudos to Anutin. Good to see him get summat right.
  6. No worries. Some of the expat pubs will also do a breakfast.
  7. Cha-am Coffee Burger ain't bad, good prices. Open 8-5: here... about 50m off the main road between highway and train station.
  8. Might have to stop reading this site for a bit…. that title is major cringe. I wish I could unread it. And the whole concept of what’s going down there is just first class weird! I mean, really, you come all this way to do that?
  9. Never see locals doing this type of thing of course. Happy to see the French getting nobbled though... what do they think it is, storming of the Bastille II.
  10. As long as giving up those things you like doesn’t make you miserable. And don’t not do something because of someone else’s view. Right food, right mind, exercise. Sugar is crapp and there’s a lot to be said for intermittent fasting.
  11. Anything that lot do nowadays is with agenda and is so timidly wokeist and politically correct that it will likely be hard to watch for those with a sense of humour hankering for the originals… + Cleese obviously won’t have same energy levels. Hope I’m wrong and it works, but if they were to go back-in-the-day full on, the easily offended will be up in arms.
  12. ???? Had to be a woman. Tell you what, love, how’s about we call him it? Or, better still, disband the whole tired story altogether, turn churches into museums or refuges and have you lot earning your keep in real jobs!
  13. Can’t believe this. Couple weeks ago they were testing 50%+ off of flights from PRC. I suppose in the interim most have passed it on and are no longer infected. ????
  14. Netizens turn on boat passengers who just watched man drowning Hey, but at least they've got their masks on!
  15. Not really, this rubbish could happen to anyone from any country. Though I guess because they're Chinese and Thailand is trying to make a good impression, stuff like this will more likely be expedited.
  16. ^^^ Indeed. A coup/rewrite of constitution/extended illegal rule is the ultimate betrayal. Try convincing the tired narrative on here of the injustice. ‘Oh, but but but, he made some money out of a swamp and we can’t have that, yada yada’. Lol. Deary me.
  17. That's coz they keep popping up in the wrong place.
  18. You'll never convince the fuddy-duddies and them that don't think the earth is round otherwise. ????
  19. Rookie error, people are earning 10x more etc ad nauseam. The point is being ripped off from what the price should be. I’ve also experienced dodgy meters, and not to mention the Phuket debacle. If you’re ok with that, up to you.
  20. Shame to miss out just because of the taxis. It’s not my fav place, but bringing Pattaya into the topic lol. But yes, the Phuket taxi mafia are pondlife. I wish them all the bad luck in the world.
  21. For those benefitting from their money maybe, but for everyone else? Bring back covid!
