Why do I never see things like this when I visit Pattaya?

The government must be so proud to receive one of these.

Damn right. That's how Rik Mayall mwt his demise. Legend.

Riiiight. Because the RTP conduct themselves with absolute professionalism and have a high standard of morals. They would never dream of doing something so corrupt and unethical. Unfortunately that reality is from some other multiverse.

"Police declined to provide details about the arrest." Sounds suspicious. Either they planted the drugs on him as a way to extort him but as he's only 20, he's not likely to have much and therefore they had to follow through with the arrest. Or they were informed by their dealer" friend" that he had just bought some and arrested him in the hope of extorting him but as he's only 20...

Thais outraged that a foreigner might be filming them, but they find it perfectly acceptable to take photos and videos of my blond-haired kids without my permission.

The foreign guy should pursue defamation claims against the person posting the video. It's about time this law was used correctly.

Bravo to the Bangkok Governor. Such a hero. If this governor job doesn't work out for him, he'll be pleased to know he can get a job on a farm closing stable doors after the horses have run off.

My friend was hit with the exact same scam a couple of years ago. Told she wasn't allowed to even tell her husband or they'd both be arrested and her kid thrown into care. Looking back, it's absurd but at the time it was absolutely terrifying for her. Fortunately she didn't pay. I'm sure I get many scam calls but once I come out with, "Eh up mate, do ya speak English?" they put the phone down.

These scammers are incredibly convincing. My half Thai, half English friend was almost caught out by the exact same scam. She called bs on it at the beginning but they had copies of her Thai passport and ID as well as knowledge of her Thai bank accounts. They knew where she worked and showed her an arrest warrant and court case documents with her name on it. These documents had the official stamp on them and when our workplace lawyers took them to a judge, he said they were absolutely legit until he noticed that the case number didn't make sense. They sent her to a clone website representing the courts where she was able to view the case against her. She even had a video call with the caller who was dressed in official police uniform and could see other "police officers" in the background. They were threatening her with arrest at work and that they would take away her kid. All of this caused a huge amount of stress and panic and in situations like this, you don't think clearly. So not all victims a greedy or stupid.

When I read it, I thought it was the guy's pornstar name.

I've sent you a PM. I should also add, the service works best when connected through a VPN. I use Nord.

See screenshot from my service provider. This could be the reason. FWIW I pay £60/year and get excellent service. Have multiple versions of each channel (4kUHD, FHD, FHD 50fps, HD & SD). Plus the usual abundance of movies and series. HD Prime is absolute garbage compared to this service. In addition, also has live football from every league match in the English and Scottish pyramid.

This reminds me of the time I visited Korat to run the marathon. Got there a few days before and decided to see what sort of night life it had. Met a couple of girls in a bar and they suggested we go to a beer bar type place with live music. A few hours later our table size had grown from 3 of us to around 20. All ordering bottles of whiskey and I could see that nobody was paying for drinks as they were ordered. I joined in the fun for a few more hours but at the front of my mind was the knowledge that I would eventually be stuck with this huge bill. So I did what any self respecting guy would do... I went to the toilet, slipped out the side door and with a smug grin, stumbled back to my hotel.

Anybody got a link to the uncensored video?

Christ Church at the corner of Sathorn Road and Convent Road is your best bet. That's a Church of England church. There's also Holy Redeemer Catholic Church on Soi Ruamrudee close to Ploenchit BTS.

I have the exact same symptoms. Started out with a sore throat and aching joints. Then a day later coughing started and throat got worse. Gradually my throat got better but coughing has become really bad. Hospital tested for flu, covid etc etc and xray for pneumonia. Diagnosed with bronchitis and given a ton of medication. Phenylephrine 1 tab 2 x per day Japrolox 1 tab 3 x per day Prednisolone 2 tabs 2 x per day Darflox antibiotic 2 tabs 2 x per day Reducof Lozenge tab 3 x per day Ropect 1 tab 3 x per day Nac Long effervescent 1 tab 2 x per day Tussis Mixture 5ml 3 x per day

Whenever I have to get a taxi close to Nana bts on a Friday night, I expect that they will try to not put the meter on. The last time I was there, I had a driver who tried to kill me... through shock. He actually put the meter on without me even having to ask. At the end of the journey I gave him the usual cost without the meter. Sometimes it pays to be honest.

I can imagine it would look like a scene from Weekend at Bernies.

Confusing abuse and fear with discipline. I can't imagine a child who is regularly 'spanked' as their sole form of discipline, lacking in fear of that parent. Sure it might change the child's behaviour, but at what cost? If somebody were to regularly hit me, I'd be pretty scared of them. As for no research... Here's some bedtime reading for you. https://www.gse.harvard.edu/ideas/usable-knowledge/21/04/effect-spanking-brain https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3447048/ https://srcd.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/cdev.13565 This study totally refutes everything you say. https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/corporal-punishment-and-health "Parents who were physically punished as children are more likely to physically punish their own children."

Excellent post. You make a very valid point about the, "my old man/teacher used to beat me and it did no harm, wo I'll do the same". It quite clearly has done them harm as it has now instilled the belief that it is acceptable for a grown man to hit children. These types of people are a danger to children who need love, support and guidance from the key adults in their lives, not a "healthy sense of fear". I ask those people, show the evidence and research that proves physical punishment of children has positive outcomes. I'll save you the time. Not a single study has shown this. Research HAS shown that children who are beaten have increased levels of anti social behaviour, associations with mental health problems (depression, anxiety), slower cognitive development and it adversely affects academic achievement.

I totally understand your point. My point was that if you did give him a crack, you'd get worse. Yet some (most likely the elderly generation) still believe that, "it didn't do me any harm so we should be able to go round hitting naughty kids". It's not their fault though that they have this mindset. They know no better.

Give the kid a slap in front of his mates and I can almost guarantee he WILL bring a gun into school and shoot you.
