  1. Interesting how those are 4 of the most liberal states in the country. Just sayin.
  2. If he is American he could be looking at 15 years Federal time for illicit activity in a foreign country. Either way, if all true he must be a tool and should be deported.
  3. Thais go there for wannabee highso photo ops for FB, IG and Tik tok. It is garbage maybe the worst coffee in Thailand give me a 7-11 coffee over this mess.
  4. Exempt 6 by air in a year they will flag you in the system and tell you to get a Visa in the future.
  5. If people want to sleep get a hotel far away from restaurants or bars. Difficult to do in these major tourist spots.
  6. The guys in the bars on Soi 6 are owners or security or possibly cheap charlies. Girls would never pass up a chance for lady drinks or go upstairs. Otherwise, your comments and complaints seem finicky.
  7. Good stand off Sukhumvit 60 b same as 2nd road. Seems a waste to make yourself. Go to the market and buy all those ingredients all that time, energy, labor and expense for a $1.60 sandwich that doesn't taste the same.
  8. Was on the road last week. Sorry, the drivers here are insane. Tailgating at 120 right on bumpers of other vehicles. Car after car. So uneducated and reckless. Ignorance and non caring. Disgusting really I wonder sometimes how much they value life.
  9. Sorry, it would go broke I doubt many wear condoms in Pattaya.
  10. I can name dozens of places in Pattaya and Bangkok that do short and longer term Airbnb. Places like The Base and The Edge in Pattaya are very popular. There has been no broad crackdown and I bet there never will be. I think it could be a money maker. I know a couple of places in Bangkok off the Skytrain they get 25 to 30 k a month. At that rate they will be paid off in about 10 years. All about location, but yes I think it could be a hassle managing it. One good thing about Abnb is they rate the guests so you can weed out the losers.
  11. Meaningless mostly. If they want to make a greater impact open up the hours to buy it.
  12. I have had them get aggressive with me for parking in their space accidently. I was told they pay(who) for the space.
  13. I have insurance, but with all the exclusions it is really accident insurance. Having close calls on a motorbike, or even walking I will be covered unless I am reckless or drunk. Other then that, it seems they can exclude coverage for just about anything else.
  14. I bought an MG z last year. I love it one of the best cars I have owned and I think good value.
  15. Just adding to their debt. My experience is things are generally crowded/increased traffic until after Valentines day.
  16. I did meet some similar in Sport bars. Or, golfing. The only issue is starting a conversation people immediately get on the defensive. Ask them where they are from ( a normal question) and they seem to think you are prying into their life. So many people here from different countries, backgrounds etc, not really easy. You can also try Expat meetings.
  17. I had a good year. But in reality it is just about back to where it was 2 years ago. The S and P still is not at its all time high. Stocks like Facebook tripled, but still not at all time highs. Many other stocks are even or down. The big techs mostly up. It will be interesting many think inflation is tame now, but I think that may be premature. Will wait and see especially with the President elections what 2024 will bring for stocks.
  18. Give me a gas hog any day. Sales of EV have slumped. The Woke thinkers who are buying them will reach saturation at some point. Resale values of people who have them now will be practically worthless as they improve the technology. Kind of like spending $1,000 on a VCR years ago. Especially in the U.S. Republican Desantis and Trump are not fans of EV if they win, government support will probably be limited.
  19. You need some Trolls or else it would be boring. What happened to Bignok?
  20. Tik tok and Instagram people in love with themselves.
  21. I just manscaped myself front and back. Excited and ready to go for the New Year.
  22. It will go on for 3 days. Must be wonderful to purchase a 10 million b condo at Northshore and have constant noise and wake up past midnight all the time. Just wait for April the "month of Songkran".
