    I would bet that is image has scared more Thai men into considering stopping than all the wrappers featuring lung disease, cancers and brown teeth combined!

    Actually...if you think about it...the leg-to-penis-ration is quiet impressive!

    "I have lived here long enough to know that politeness and respect get you a long way. Rudeness and arrogance get you nowhere."

     

    ...as clearly indicated by the 2 rude and arrogant C@#%$ who did not let you buy what you wanted and came to buy in due time!

     

    I am living here for 11 years now and I am not giving 2 hot $4!t$ about the Thai- politeness anymore, as they use and abuse their own "rules" as they please! 

    If you are an @$$4)le, be ready to be called one!

    Not once have I been asked for license from a wholesale place or refused  a sale between the non sale times

    Ooooooh...we are so happy for you!

    You must be one of the good ones and because $4!t never happens to you, clearly it never does to anybody else!

    I got a better one: I was trying to buy ALCOHOL FREE BEER at Tops Daily.

    It was 3 pm, but since the sale of ALCOHOL is prohibited and I wanted to buy NO ALCOHOL, I didn't think much of it!

    First the register wouldn't open.

    Second the cashier told me "Can not sell alcohol before 5"

    Third, I said "That is great! Since this is alcohol -free,we don't have a problem!"

    Fourth he called his superior and she looked at the can and triumphantly held it towards me, pointing at the "0,00%" sign!

    Fifth, I told her, that this means, that there is NO ALCOHOL in the beverage! That is what 0,00% indicates!

    Sixth...sorry sir, can not sell!

     

    And before I get answers like "Why would you even buy alcohol free beer?"(None of your business!) or tell me, that the selling of BEER is prohibited (no, it's not! The sale of alcohol is prohibited...otherwise, I would please like to see a list of all the specific kinds of alcohol, that are not to be sold and buy the one, not on the list...)

     

    Here is what happened: one clever chap saw the word "beer" on the can, shut down his/her 5 active brain cells, registered the stuff under "not to be sold between 2 and 5 pm)...and here we go!

    yeah...I useta scorn Stephen King as an icon of crass 'popular culture' until I read some of his stuff...very nicely put together as well as being entertaining...I reckoned that if Stanley Kubrick took on The Shining he musta been impressed with the source material...

    He has many really amazing titles under his belt.
    The Stand, It, Misery, Storm of the Century, The Long Walk (as Richard Bachman), Eyes of the Dragon (as Richard Bachman) and a bunch of short- stories as well (The Mist comes to mind)!

    For his genre, he is a master and I enjoyed his company on many holidays!
