American Arrested in Bangkok Following Phuket Incident
FruitPudding replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
What did he actually do? So vague. -
I've noticed mostly Thai staff don't enough about the customers or even their own job or tips to exert any significant effort. Their attitude seems to be "tip or not, I do what I wanna do" Up to them.

Typically though, women here are looking for a male caretaker, sugar daddy figure, ATM machine. So she might as well do something to earn her keep.

I won't wear a helmet, makes me look stupid

Complete idiots, everywhere. -
Interesting I wonder if there are similarities in this to back West in the 60s and 70s? There was a lot less fat people then too. Less processed empty junk and more real nutrient dense foods.

US English teacher arrested for sexual relation with 16 y/o student
FruitPudding replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
He'll be really kicking himself about this fact now. Especially, if he gets charged with statutory rape when he lands back to America. In any case, what was he thinking?? What a Diddy. -

Intoxicated British Man Beaten by Two Thai Men in Pattaya
FruitPudding replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Hang on, I can just hear the other side of the story now: "He dunk, wery wery dunk. Talk too mutt. I give him cerebral hemorrhage with my friends and run away." -
At first I thought,"Why is he posting this?" then I was getting cuckold vibes around the 3rd paragraph. Just speak plainly, Bob. All you have to do is ask.

Intoxicated British Man Beaten by Two Thai Men in Pattaya
FruitPudding replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
It was actually Brit bashing. Read the OP Yeah, you are probably right. We do deserve to get attacked by a group of men, teeth knocked out, cerebral hemorrhage etc etc for being drunk and disorderly NOT, ???? only an absolute neanderthal would think that way. -
Come to think of it, I haven't seen a Thai do anything with vigor.

Come on! On my way to work this morning, I lost count of how many women I saw with 28 inch waists (and a sugary drink in hand) and I didn't see very many men with big guts either. A lot of slender chaps my age. Compare it to the West.

I don't get how bread and potatoes are worse than white rice? Thais very much have a sweet tooth. Have you ever tried one of their coffees or teas? Okay, I agree with you on smaller portions probably. Unless, they work in a field or construct site, they definitely do not move more. Where I come people actually walk as a mode of transportation. Thais just hop on a motorcycle

How are there so many slim, petite, slender Thais? Especially compared to westerners. I don't get it. -They don't fear carbs. -They don't avoid sugar. -Most of their food is stir fried in bad oil. - They don't do keto or any other fad diet. They don't prioritize whole grains or greens. - I don't think they count calories or out any effort into staying slim -They don't have a fitness/exercise culture. How do they do it? It is just good genes? They pretty much live off lots of white rice, sugar, and oil with some meat and fruit, while never exercising. Any insights?

How much prison time for other riots, such as BLM ( which caused more damage, injury, and loss of life)? -
Story Of My Thai Citizenship Application
FruitPudding replied to dbrenn's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I guess it depends which milieu you are socializing in. If living in a cosmopolitan place, it probably won't be your experience. At international schools or top tier Thai schools it probably won't be your experience either. We have not experienced it in a cosmopolitan place or in a top tier Thai school, but pretty much everywhere else in the country, yes, unfortunately, it has been our experience. And we spent many years living up country. -

Story Of My Thai Citizenship Application
FruitPudding replied to dbrenn's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Well, over a decade I've noticed most Thais I've interacted with considered my mixed race child as "farang noi" or "luek krueng" not actually Thai. They are bemused by this concept and don't accept it based on one western parent. That's their logic. Only the high class, well-educated folks seem to understand otherwise, or maybe they are just being polite. -

It's also a nationality and if you have that nationality, you are Thai. Ethnicity is cultural characteristics/norms that we live by - and according to my sociology professor - ethnicity can actually change. Anyone ever been called Farang-Laos by a Thai person before? ???? ???? I've met Asians who left Asia in their 20s to go West and by the time they were 60 you'd never know they even came from Asia. Ethnically, they were clearly Westernized, virtually 100% And if you integrated in your teen years, you can be 100% ethically changed. I've seen this with Thai kids going West. There is also a very old Sikh Thai community who are ethnically more similar to people in India, despite being born and raised here. Culturally (ethically), they are as much Thai as a foreigner. And don't get me started on Isaan people whose ethnicity is more Laos than Thai and southern Thais whose ethnicity is closer to Malay.
