I just bought a new washing machine to replace the 10+ year old that terminated her contract. Very relaxing to sip coffee or cold beer while machine is quietly doing it's job, while waiting to hear different type moaning later.

Better just focus more to teach about their magnificent history and ensure they will become obedient citizens. Dangerous to teach language as well as many other things to masses.

Fair is matter of interpretation, as is law. As long as you stay out of the country or don't break any law or don't end up to any civil case with local while here, you are likely treated fair. But if you break any of these, and end up to the legal system, against a local, odds are that you will not be treated fair in your mind, though the other party might disagree. At the end, you are at fault as if you would not have come to thailand, the issue would not have happened in the first place.

How about your feeling for the sounds when you hear the same thai ladies getting their tantrums with the traditional yakyak sounds, and the silence following the episode?

555 okay. Never heard the term before. Learning something new every day!

"... Develop gambling problem..."? No need to develop, they have already. The purpose of these new casinos is to milk as much money from foreigners as possible. Thais will largely be forbidden in those, esp middle and lower classes. Main Target is Chinese, Korean and Japanese as secondary. Current thai gambling system will stay, too much for police to loose to let that be distracted.

What is "mane" road? I live down the Soi but never heard it called mane road. Luckily live far enough not to hear the roar of the cat though, but recall seeing the guy and the cat on a ride with the Bentley when it also was on news.

Looks like Russians

Where can I get a commemorative sticker? Or only available for airport staff?

Can only hope that the lion eats the owner. Solution to fix the issue permanently without public danger.

Better she go to east Ukraine. Many fellow Russians there that would enjoy her company ans she could enjoy too.

in 2006 would have needed an Augmented Reality camera to be able to get groups of indians drinking or sleeping on beach!

Sure - regardless of the fact that the 'natural tourist attraction quality standards' have gone down in past couple of decades as a result of development in nutritional habits in the country, still not that bad by global standards. Artificial tourist attraction standards may have gone up as a result of developments in polymer chemistry, but of course subject to personal assessment of punters whether that is good or bad.

Also first time after entering the country must do in person. At least was so in December as had to go due to online not working. Pick up next day that time.

Interesting to know whether Ploy is her sister, boyfriend (or nominally ex hb) and or just a friend.

Some foreigners seemingly localised with their habits.

You must be seriously narrow minded and unaware of world outside Thailand to be worried about farang taking over thai foot massage jobs. Understand someone jokingly doing that, but I doubt many would be brave enough to insult pride of thai people to try to take those jobs that thai netizens value so highly

Some?

Soly no hab

Hab. But failed.

... Eagerly waiting to see the next news story about him, claiming "Thai 'wife' scammed a foreign man for all his cash, now trying to get money by gofundme to get back to UK"

Heavy smog is the culprit, not bar girls. He simply can't find his way out of Soi Cowboy due to low visibility.

Indeed if someone uses the word 'Frenchman', most people in the world perceive it to mean something different. Do which one is wrong, the term, or people's understanding of the meaning of the term?

OP was about Pattaya. Mae Sot maybe up by 3 digits compensating Pattaya!

Hmmm... Then how does the wiring work when concluding that he 'can prevent her having sex with other males' and/or 'save girl from prostitution' even if the brain knows that neither is not credibly feasible and thus effectively untrue, especially so in the case of girls in Pattaya? There must be some kind of malfunction in the wiring, or? You pay for something completely imaginary, getting an imaginary benefit. Maybe similar wiring problem of human brain that religions are misusing, offering an imaginary solution to an imaginary problem, while in reality getting controlled and milked by the organizations
