  1. There is a simple answer to how this confrontation could have been avoided.

    Had the Irishman been an upstanding, interactive reader of TVF like all the rest of us old farts, he would have been fully informed of the DOs and Don'Ts when out partying and drinking in Pattaya.

     

    Take me for example. I've never been there but have probably read most of the posts that related similar situations. I would be street savvy, pub savvy. Same for all the other rules that go along with drinking and carousing. It's all there on TVF.

     

    (And I'm not even running for POTY. Take that NCC170).

    It's been pretty cold lately for Thailand up north. I wonder what the weather is doing to materials. I had bathroom tiles fall off a couple years ago during a cold spell. This year no problems with them. I guess it's not due to temperatures there but this story reminded me of that.

    If you are a westerner, you sure have been converted to native thinking.

     

    To a westerner, the current temperatures that Thailand is experiencing are what a westerner would call "cool", NOT "cold". It is only "cold" to a Thai national. "Cold" because it is below their norm.

    The current "cool" temperatures would have no effect whatsoever on the integrity of building materials. Drop below "0" Celsius for an extended period of time and then the effects from cold can be possibly blamed.

    Thank God. My pin up babe is safe.

     

    I have been on my knees praying for her every night. Begged god to leave off helping the Palestinians and other needy people and put all his efforts into helping my beloved Pareena. My faith has been restored .

    Tonight in my dreams I can now get on with giving her the thorough rogering she deserves.

    I see you're not too picky !

    22.8 °C early morning today at the Pattaya Weather Station...

    Not freezing… but not far :wink:

    Haha, You're sounding like a full-fledged native ( Not freezing... but not far). 22.8 is a helluva a long way from 0 degrees (freezing). Better make sure you're wearing flannel pyjamas and not the cotton or silk version. If it dips below 20, maybe add a toque to your nightwear and socks too.

     

    Keep warm in the tropics !

    Allow me to be a tad less sympathetic. A population gets the government it deserves. No point crying about it later... Every Thai will naturally be delighted that Prayuth and those he serves are doing very nicely thank you.

     

    "A population gets the government it deserves."

    Your statement is valid if said government was elected fair and square, free of vote buying, vote rigging, votes honestly tabulated ................

    Allegedly, that may not be the case with the current government. Thus, it is not fair to say " A population ............... "

    Increase? In CM many have to accept a decrease to even 7k baht, as some owners cant afford more.

    You did not clarify the 7K baht. Some readers may not understand. I believe "tabarin" is stating 7k baht for 4 weeks work, down from 9,000 baht. Those are usually 9 hour days and a week is 6 days.

     

    Correct me "tabarin" if I am wrong.

    He was able to say that he thought he hit an oil slick. Police are not sure - they think he might have been going fast, reported Sanook. 

     

    In the passenger seat was a well known actress Sanathachat, 25, also known as "Fon Hormone".

    I wonder if his professional driving skills might have been distracted by his young, nubile passenger. He might have been "fawning" over her "hormones" and hit a "slippery" spot (on the road of course) causing his right leg to twitch, pressing the accelerator pedal to the floor. 

     

    Been there, done that but my old ride didn't have that kind of acceleration capabilities.

    Let me tell you something that I saw, personally....

    In 1992, when I was 18, moved to Vegas and was working for a big Supermarket as a Carry-out person. 

    I was scraping buy, living basically off of Ramen Noodles and $1 Whoppers, driving a beat up car.

    Lady and 2 or 3 kids comes in, buys $450 wirth if food. Steaks, other meats, sodas, chips,... you name it, all paid for with Food Stamps.

    I help take her 2 over full carts out to her big Cadillac, tinted windows, a stack of about 30 CDs.... booming stereo system (when she turned Car on it was thumping)... 

    You think I saw this scenario only once?... over and over...

    While I was actually working a job, scraping by.

     

    Some of these "conners" make more money than legitimate business people like me make.

     

    (Las Vegas, 1992. Hot dogs could be bought on the strip 3/$100, buffet breakfast in Circus Circus for some ridiculously small amount)

    Agreed, but many of the people that are struggling to survive and need food stamps are working their asses off, and still struggling to survive.

    But it is also true that some of these people spend their paper money on things that affect their brain and not their nourishment. Priorities !

     

    Also, I seem to recall that a Trump election promise was that he would solve the out of control drug addiction problem that America has. I must be missing all his announcements on that one. Priorities !

    No concern of yours, I as an American am reaping the rewards of our Great President Trump's actions. Looking forward to the next 4 years with control of both House and Senate and even greater accomplishments. Meanwhile the pitiful little world you live in goes further down the sewer.

    May all your wishes come true and may all the rest of us win a lottery ( American Power Ball of course).
