If this isn't sarcasm, its one of the dumbest things written on these boards. The dating scene is an unmitigated disaster in the west. The whole bar scene is dead. It all stems from the #metoo movement and all the trouble men can find themselves in when they are around women consuming alcohol. The entire bar and nightclub scene in the west has been going bankrupt as a sector for the last 5 years.

Pattaya is the Bahamas compared to its equivalent in the Philippines

That is just what they found in her system. Most of the other drugs could have been residue from the past. I was friends with a guy who was into this. Someone who's sourcing cocaine in Thailand is deep into the drug scene and is more than likely taking a half dozen different drugs at any given time. People who are into stimulants also like Benzos for sleeping. They go hand in hand

A supply in an area usually starts to develop a reputation, if its the same seller who's getting it from the same place. Sometimes a supply can last for years. People slowly figure it out after trying it in small amounts. But then the cops bust a smuggling ring or a shipment and all of the intel and consistency of said supply is suddenly lost. Then a new supply shows up. Some people probably don't even know that its no longer the same thing. And then this happens. Basically all misery associated with drugs can be traced back to the prohibition laws that the good ol US of A spread around the world.

She was 36. And still traveling around SE Asia like she's 21

That's a dated urban myth. The street runoff in any seaside city only has one place to go. Street runoff is not sewage. And how many times has the beach been shut down for ecoli ? Plenty of beaches in Australia and around the world get shut down for ecoli

Brutal. He laid on those tracks motionless even as he could hear the train approaching.

Pattaya has been getting the same old criticism from the same group of people for 20 years. And yet it keeps growing and getting better.

Evidently Pattaya is doing something right considering how popular it is. Yet it is the butt end of jokes on here endlessly

Bryan is that you

Someone is triggered. Hmm I wonder why....."lol" And not only that, the premise I set out in my post is simply true.

Here's the story Richard He later said he started to remove them himself and then they assaulted him. Maybe he was within his rights to start moving them. But it was an escalation that I would have avoided until the cops arrived or something

No. They went insanely overboard. But it just puts home the point even more that you should never start or continue with an escalation. Even the previous poster who said he started moving the barriers around his car himself. I wouldn't do that it a foreign country. It is an escalation. Just try and negotiate.

We were all young once. Just speaking for myself , if an adult was kicking us out of somewhere whether it was drinking or quadding , if they were decent about it , we never gave them trouble back. But if they were a complete prick , it was different. Don't be a complete prick. It's not worth it.

The Swiss guy more than likely shooed them off like stray dogs. Instead of just being civilized. Some people take being insulted seriously. Especially in other cultures. You insult someone , they will beat the sh** out of you
