I met a white guy who was a serious jerk..  I just assumed that being a jerk came naturally to white people

"Investigator Pol Lt Colonel Chartchai Nakpaksee said the suspect confessed that he destroyed palm trees and other trees at a public garden close to Krabi River out of anger when his girlfriend left him"

 

well she certainly won't be coming back after she see's you looking a complete tool on the news. those poor trees, what did they have to do with it. anyway, should have just took your frustrations out on a bar girl, would have worked out cheaper and more fun. each to their own i guess

did you seriously just advocate violence against another person? You are about as dim-witted if not more dimwitted than the tree abuser

(regardless if you were joking or not! stupid comment no matter how you fuckin cut it!)

7000 baht for 18 people eating seafood sounds like a bargain to me!

The headline makes it sound like they were billed differently because they were farang! <deleted> man?!?!?!

anyone think this is hilarious?!?!?!

they crack down on people riding in the back of pickups because they are trying to reduce traffic deaths because its dangerous and turn around and allow too people to ride in the back of pickup trucks during a time of year where they know there will be more fatalities and injuries related to traffic... they might as well allow people to ride in the back of pickups during Songkran also!

lesson learned? dont confront drunks on your own... neighbors too loud? just call the cops and let the cops deal with it.

I try not to think when eating, yeah this is kind of gross... but when i think of all the times that i ate something i probably should not have... this doesn't phase me as much...

i mean if you ever ate a bowl of cereal there is probably a good chance that there were rat droppings in it or something equally as gross.

when the hell did sieko's become high watches???

most of these comments are hilarious...

I can't tell what the hell actually happened or whats going on.. and everyone is just assuming one thing or other and making snap judgments! without clearly understanding what is actually happened or what has actually occured...

Assumptions and opinions are like <deleted> everyone has one.

sad that this is what passes as news these days.

why should anyone really care or anyone's opinion really matter here?

punish her for her actions and move on

Another terribly disturbing story.

Hopefully, both kids can make a full recovery and move forward.

The emotional scars are going to run pretty darn deep I imagine, not sure how a young child is supposed to emotionally and mentally cope with their own mom trying to murder them. 

In any case, anyone is capable of snapping under certain circumstances.  Some people can deal with more bad things happening than others that's for sure.

Sounds like this woman might have had a very low breaking point or was suffering from long-term mental and emotional anguish.

And you blame Thai youth ALONE for all the problems,....... just take a look at the parents, they SET a GREAT EXAMPLE right here,..... "Oh, it's okay to stab someone if you're angry, even if it's your own children, dad, any other relatives or friends...." 

 

What a GREAT example such parents present for Thai children across the Nation....... 

 

And you wonder why in their youth, Thai kids and teens result in violence in school........... 

 

Sick SH***********

what the hell are you babbling about???

1million baht = $30,000

i have a feeling she is going to make a run for it... seriously losing $30,000 is a small price to pay when you are probably facing execution or life in a thai prison!.

what I said is not incorrect, in fact you just repeated it, as far as helmets are concerned they will protect from a drop to the ground from seat height, however wearing a helmet in Thailand may not have a huge impact on road safety and fatalities because there are many other issues involved that need attention first, it would take a detailed study to determine this but from what I have seen here - many motorbike fatalities involve horrific impacts were a helmet would have made no contribution at all.

lets start with the basics... enforcing helmet laws is a good start

talk to a lawyer! 

I would not under any circumstance recommend a marriage thai laws are very draconian in favor of women when it comes to disputes regarding marriage and children. She will have power over you once you are married.

considering how many people use motorbikes in this county, the lack of use of seat belts, ... exceeding recommended passenger limits in/on a motorized vehicle, drivers working long ass shifts, and pure reckless behavior of some...  it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that Thailand would have such a high accident/fatality rate.

Almost forgot the sheer amount of corruption and apathy from law enforcement regarding enforcement of road safety!

if i am not mistaken adroid pay doesnt work in thailand... only samsung pay does

from what I gather allot of Thai men have very childish personalities... not surprising if you think about it... if you look around you will see allot of thai women coddling their children up into adulthood.

the ones who learn independence usually have no problem finding and holding onto a suitable mate. 

 "she was educated mainly outside Thailand" 

Gotta ask was she really qualified to represent Thailand? she was probably prepped and "told" what thai culture and customs are in preparation to provide a  proper answer is to impress "thai" judges to win the title of miss Thailand.....  however she probably knows very little in terms of whats really happening in Thailand without experiencing first hand what its like to grow up in the country.

Granted the king of thailand was also educated in a foreign country but he spent many years visiting rural Thailand to find out first hand what his people were going through....

when you go to Disneyland and try to bring a drink or food in with you they make you throw it away before entering... but once inside there is plenty of food and drinks you can purchase.  same same silly farang don't seem to question that do they?

I didn't expect replies like that :D Im in a relationship and looking for friends actually. Hoping to find people who live here.

 

Thanks SidJames, I'll check the places out!

try learning russian if you are looking for non-thai friends

first off where did you meet this girl? secondly, you screwed up from the very beginning by agreeing to a salary in the first place.

Its one thing to help her pay her bills or give her money to take care of her children because you care about her... but to just give straight up give her money just because she was nice enough to give you a lay on a regular basis? there is a word for this type of person and i think you know what it is...

more than likely you will be dumped and she will move on to another less demanding Jon.  Also the fact you call it a salary says allot..

another outcome i can see happening is she does as you tell her and winds up getting a job at the girly bar.

Why?

 

It isn't only Chinese that cram into lifts.

I have been in many lifts in Thailand where they cram as many people in as possible. It seems there is "always room for one more" even though the alarm rings. I must admit I get worried sometimes.

i have never come across what you speak off... i always see people patiently waiting for the next lift if its even remotely full.

In Japan the elevators sound a warning and will not move if overloaded.

they do the same thing should occur Thailand.. as soon as the limit is hit an alarm will go off and will continue to beep or make a sound and will not move until the excess weight is removed.. all floors pushed will reset and must be pressed again also. 

not sure what actually occurred but i think they simply tried to ignore the warning... or someone skipped some safety measures during construction to save a few bucks... probably the latter

granted don't mess with other peoples belonging's but beating the crap out of someone for touching your stuff isn't exactly justified either...

the whack should have sufficed... the coming back and beating him with a stick was way overboard.

not sure if handled well are the words I would choose. I mean they threw a barrier at him...

but overall acceptable no one died or was seriously injured.

In the states more than likely extreme excessive force would have been used...

American cops do not <deleted> around when their authority is challenged.
