What Do YOU Do, ... When the THRILL is Gone?
SiSePuede419 replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Anything that makes you happy will only last 6 months. Then your happiness level goes back down to what it was before. Chase a new reward. ???? -
Yesterday I watched a video of someone who walked around the slums in Manila including little tiny alleys with people's laundry hanging up. "This is real", he said. People were very friendly, he said. Sure,I would walk around at night, he said. So.... the point is that Manila is full of lots of really poor people who are happy and just trying to get by. But I already know that. I don't need to walk around slums to see that. I've already walked around in low income areas in many countries. 90% of people are good people just getting by. It's that other 10% you gotta watch out for. Why push your luck? Thrill seeking? Surviving getting knifed? What's the point?!?!? Your inability to use Google search for 30seconds and find budget accomodations in a reasonably safe neighborhood is not something that a majority of the world wants to see. "Favala" tourism to me is pointless. You're either part of the problem or you're part of the solution. Smart people already know Manila is a place to avoid. There's lots of places in the world to avoid, no need to list them here. You treat people with respect and they treat you the same. But their path is for them to walk, not I. Me walking around with a camera on a selfie stick mumbling about how real poverty is does nothing for the people experiencing it.

Most Farangs would probably scowl and not say anything if you asked them "Are you OK"? ????

I met a woman from India on a date in Tempe Arizona. I told her that I would follow traditional Indian culture and demand a dowery. That's how little value women have in India --you have to pay the grooms family to take the woman. She said oh no, we're going by American rules. I said I think you're going to follow traditional Indian culture in many many other things, so....no.????

That's why I always give my Grab delivery a 20B tip. I'm prepaying for funeral expenses. ???? -
The state of your average expat in Thailand.
SiSePuede419 replied to bob smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Yes. That's why I don't hang out at Farang Steakhouse or bars. Too many dumb people. Been watching a vlog by a dumb Brit covered with tattoos. Also likes to wear a Nazi style helmet when he rides a motorcycle. Complaining on his vlog about getting a ticket for wearing such a helmet but keeps on wearing it. Goes back to England and gets busted at customs for two valium in his pocket with no prescription. I don't think the UK is sending it's best and brightest, but I am sure he makes a good living mumbling and walking around. ???? -
My wife told me the same thing and fried this dish for me when her family ate it raw. But then at an upscale Thai restaurant she eats raw salmon. A lot of it maybe a quarter kilo. ???? I only eat "raw" fish when it's "cooked" in lime juice or vinegar with salt and only in America at top Italian restaurants. Never eat sushi in Thailand OMG Life's too short to see flukes crawling out your ears after they've been feasting on your brain. ????

South Korean Tourists Splash Beer at Pattaya Women and Get Slapped
SiSePuede419 replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
I really can't imagine British tourists wasting perfectly good beer like this. ???? -
Don't want to get a KP Tattoo from Motorcycle crash! Criteria: *Has 20,000B/month or less rooms for rent *Security for accomodation critical --have router and work laptop that can't easily be replaced and loss thereof would be a GAME OVER situation *Walkable beach *Nearby gym *Many choices for both Farang and Thai food *Good drop-in yoga nearby *Gym would be a plus *Not a "lonely" beach, I will be alone and want to have other interesting, friendly people to talk with while watching the sunset, having a drink and dinner *Nearby 7-Eleven also ideal Any suggestions, Koh Phangan long term people? BTW, I'm old and won't be hanging out with 19 year olds taking a year off their domestic drinking schedule to "expand their minds" with some international drinking FM parties Grooving to drummers on Zen Beach will be as wild as I get P.S. I'm a "happy idiot" who wakes up at 4am everyday and for the next 8 hours or so struggles for "the legal tender", so no area with EDM thumping all night, Dude ????

Thai women trafficked into Indian brothel seek legal action
SiSePuede419 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
569 million (2017) just 6 years ago. 1.354 billion population (2017) That's 42% of the population, not "one sixth". Math. ✅ "Vietnam, for example, has all but eliminated the practice over the past few decades." Yes, I realize that India has some areas that are clean and modern. Yet for a country that prides itself on how many CEOs it has in America, seems like a pretty dirty place. Let's not even talk about the caste system (California just passed an anticaste discrimination law and you can guess how butthurt these people are by being fairly described as Hindu discrimination.) ???? -

Have these women ever seen pictures of how dirty and nasty India is? Do they realize a billion people there <deleted> in open fields? If you're <deleted>ting in an open field you're not washing your hands with soap afterwards. -
