  1. 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 😄
  2. Without foreign visitors during covid, there were no pregnant bar girls. 500k seems about right 😆
  3. 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 😉
  4. To be honest, I can't believe half the stuff that comes out of my own mouth 😆
  5. 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 😆
  6. 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.
  7. The driver probably said - "yeah sorry, meter broken. How about 50 baht?" Thank god for social media. Otherwise, these heinous crimes might go untold
  8. These guys move through Airport security screening at lightning speed. Much appreciated
  9. 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
  10. Seems to me that "their own cause" is simply being poor.
  11. 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
  12. If they wanted privacy just tip the local police and turn Pratumnak Beach into a private location for a few hours
  13. 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.
  14. 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
  15. 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
  16. 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.
  17. You must be a lot of fun at parties
  18. So your point is that she's not a Drama Queen?
  19. Did you find any royalty from Southeast Asian countries on the List? I heard Jeff spent a lot of time in Germany
  20. "Electrocution" means death from electrical shock. She's alive and just another Drama Queen creating clickbait
  21. Tourists bring the majority of their money into Thailand via ATM withdrawals from their home countries. ATM withdrawals will always be untraceable in Thailand. I don't expect this tax to be much of a problem for most expats unless they wish to buy hard assets. We renters have little to worry about
  22. Quite a while ago that location made their own wraps from fresh dough for each order. They were much better than the premade wraps. Does anyone know of a place that makes their own fresh tortilla wrappers?
  23. I haven't seen a proper dream pipe in Thailand since the 80's. Please PM me if you know something I don't
  24. Pattaya’s tourism tide: Aims to lure 27 million visitors The weed shop entrepreneurs seem to be the only people who believe the headlines
  25. I agree, I too am sending a clear message to Immigration. I liter often, urinate in public, and rip off the cart vendors as often as possible
