  1. I gotta think he did something either very suspicious or very confrontational to get pulled out of a taxi and searched at a roadside down to a single pill. I doubt this is just overzealous cops at a check point, or a trend in Thailand 😉
  2. True for sure, but even more important is that they haven't figured out how to tax it.
  3. LSD?? If anyone knows where this guy hung out I'd appreciate a map pin 😄
  4. Epic overshare. Thank you so much 😆
  5. For sure, but fire is worse!
  6. Really??? Oxygen masks are for cabin depressurization situations so people don't pass out. Adding oxygen to a fire would probably lead to an explosion 😉
  7. Search Google for "assisted living in Thailand". There are a number of solutions for foreigners.
  8. The only surprise is that it took longer than expected
  9. Only quadruple WHO standards? I doubt that very much 😉
  10. The underpaid overworked delivery driver is just covering his ass with the company. I complained once and the driver was docked 300b. He explained his situation and asked me to revoke my complaint so he could get the 300b back. For the most part, I'd say the delivery companies do a pretty great job 😄
  11. Without foreign visitors during covid, there were no pregnant bar girls. 500k seems about right 😆
  12. Is this not just another case of rampant alliteration on TV? Here is what I am talking about: Bristol backpacker in bar brawl bloodbath: Brit Shouldn't there be some rule against posting such blatant alliteration on this forum? Glorious Goblty Goop from GamaGlobulin 😉
  13. To be honest, I can't believe half the stuff that comes out of my own mouth 😆
  14. You'll be staying Koh Samui at least overnight no? Ten joints would be packing way too light for me. You're allowed 7kg in your carry-on baggage alone 😆
  15. Sarcasm refers to the use of words that mean the opposite of what you really want to say, especially in order to insult someone, or to show irritation, or just to be funny.
  16. The driver probably said - "yeah sorry, meter broken. How about 50 baht?" Thank god for social media. Otherwise, these heinous crimes might go untold
  17. These guys move through Airport security screening at lightning speed. Much appreciated
  18. How many of us remember backpacking across Asia in our youth? I was young once stretching my tiny budget to explore as much of the world as I could. It changed me into a global thinker and inspired me to try to do good as an adult. This woman didn't steal anything and was probably really grateful for the kindness. It will be another 25 years before anyone can really judge if this woman was a loser - or a wandering saint
  19. Seems to me that "their own cause" is simply being poor.
  20. I somehow feel obligated to read every "news" story about changing marijuana regulation, but there is zero chance the government will be able to wrap its arms around marijuana use again. There is a need for some regulation of the cannabis industry, but we consumers will always have easy access to weed. Party on Garth
  21. If they wanted privacy just tip the local police and turn Pratumnak Beach into a private location for a few hours
  22. The online applications are processed by human beings, and two years ago was mid covid so not as many of us applied. I set a reminder and do it 13 days before the due date. It has always come back within a couple of days.
  23. The "new" online system works well in my experience, and I've not heard many technical complaints. Takes less than 60 seconds. https://tm47.immigration.go.th/tm47/#/login
  24. You need to freak out on the staff occasionally for no reason whatsoever. All the better if you wear the tin-foil hat and jabber in a made-up language. It's almost guaranteed that your lobby demons will avoid your gaze forever
  25. You got that right. After years of parking 800k in a Thai bank with minimal interest, I switched to an agent who charges 12,500b/year for the service. That's only 1.6% on the same 800k. There are plenty of expats who will argue that someday the agent method won't work. So far a lot of us find an agent the better way to go.
