nausea

Nearly one million baht in gold and jewellerey, 600,000bt in cash, I'm obviously in the wrong line of work.

Toms are ladies right? At least in Thailand they are.

Not Thailand, definitely not; too many of us here already, talk aboit elephant's graveyard.

Stupid question, to procreate, obviouslx. Anything outsolide of that is just personal whimsy.

Ha! Ha! Ha! 555.

You're remembered by me Chompoo. To be honest, eating dogs for meat is akin to cannibalism in my book, given their emotional intelligence.. At least the death was quick.

It's the right direction, the weaker the baht the better for me. When I was teaching, and dependent on a Thaii salary, it was the opposite, the stronger the baht the better for me. Anyway, unless there's some drastic change, who cares.

It was never that great during my lifetime, declining Empire mindset and all that. I have to say though, as a boomer, it was difficult not to make money just by existing. Feel sorry for today's kids. Having said that, my extended family in the UK seem to be doing OK, like some guys are always gonna make the best of a bad job. The weak and the listless fall by the wayside, but the guys (and gals, to be clear I use guys as a cover all nomenclature), those with a bit of vim and verve aren't doing so bad. Diffucult times though for sure, difficult times.

Predictable. The only way you're gonna get away with killing a police officer is if you're extremely high status.

Zebra crossings are meaningless in Thailand, you're not in Kansas (Berlin) anymore.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Girls will be girls, or rather some blokes will be girls, given half a chance.

I stay home during Songkran. Guys are drunk crazy. Yeah, it's fun the first couple of times, but it all wears a bit thin after a while. Risk averse guy.

Word salad

A lot of these cases recently, I imagine it's something to do with the liberalisation of the cannabis laws here, makes getting hold of the stuff pretty easy, I guess it's just too much of a temptation, given the profits involved.

"Frung-fring means girly bling-bling – think My Little Pony and magical unicorns." Per Coconuts Bangkok; so I guess the name has something to do with the fact they shimmer and glow in the dark; why this name should be "omnious" I don't know, but maybe I'm missing something.

What will we do with a drunken sailor? ...

Well, it ain't a dark skinned Issan girl, that's for sure.

Existential boredom is a luxury ailment, most guys are kept busy just trying to survive, and believe me, it doesn't get any easier as you get older.

My gal was always going on about a nose job, I just paid for hair extensions on Khao San Rd. and she seemed happy,

A lot of charities are a grift. Just be very sure your money is going to the people that need it.

My bedroom has lots of chingchoks, which I don't mind as I understand they eat mosquitoes, which probably explains why my room, which is adjacent to greenery and has open (non-glass) windows, is very mosquito light. However, I've noticed three chingchoks recently recently, that lost their fear of me, slowly stopped moving and eventually died (at least the first two did, the third is in the slowly losing movement phase). Anybody know what's going on here?

It all adds to the flavour 555.

I didn't know how priviliged I was when I was scraping the frost from the inside of my bedroom windows as a a kid in the UK, waiting for Dad to start the coal fire.
