  1. Not quite. It was good for two or three years after that.
  2. Sounds like a more accurate description would be something like: "over time, 10% of Thailand's long established sex industry adapted itself a little to target the foreign market".
  3. What would be the point of being a woman on the surface but a guy underneath? You don't see the inside of someone. Do you mean they want a woman's body with a penis attached?
  4. The elite take care of the other elite while they all get fat off of the tax payers. I'm no communist, but the whole born into wealth thing gets a bit tiring. Most people high up in the British government, business and even entertainment went to the same few public schools and then Oxford or Cambridge.
  5. Actually they crow at any time. In my experience, South East Asians are incredibly heavy sleepers. Lights on, people shouting, music blaring, they can sleep just fine. On the floor, bed made of wood, in a hammock, no problem. Very lucky in this regard.
  6. What action did the police take against the car mob protests?
  7. Sounds like a lot of attachment and desire there. And they do say that will lead to unhappiness. How do they not spot these issues ahead of time? Do they simply pretend to be Buddhists? Are there any actual Buddhists in Thailand?
  8. No, Thailand opting to delay massively and buy only the Chinese vaccine was them "boning" the vaccine rollout, not it being rescued.
  9. Ah, I see you have a "talent" for insulting people who do not agree with you. Bravo! Sorry I don't share the same negative attitude as you, nor feel the need to put people down. I think "talented" would be an understatement for Lennon or Hendrix. Akin to saying their music was "OK". They were clearly gifted and masters of their craft. I would place Lennon and Hendrix above Lalisa, although she clearly has talent. I don't remember mentioning Princess Diana though. Have a nice evening.
  10. Quite the opposite. For me, the measure of someone's talent is the measure of their talent. The girl can clearly sing and dance, these are talents, she is talented.
  11. "Don’t be too impressed by the [clear evidence of talent]. She is still a brainless doll. A talentless one."
  12. I can't speak on the bimboness (couldn't find anything about her education), but she's certainly very talented in singing and dancing (and presumably in whatever it takes to be discovered and signed to a record label). You might not like her genre, but it's fairly objectively visible. I assume she would have got nowhere without her looks, but equally she would need to be at the very least be a talented dancer to succeed.
  13. Are they claiming that they roam around in these cars and their cameras and facial recognition software scan and identify everyone they see and check their immigration status? Or did someone just grass him up?
  14. Always interesting to consider these points when Thais complain about their government. I think they would like the freedoms that are more common in the West, but I'm not sure they would enjoy the associated responsibilities.
  15. Ah. Tout à fait l'énigme, n'est-ce pas? Well, it seems that the book of (almost) the same name was released in 1947. The book's wiki page claims: It would be nice to see something more substantial at this point, like a direct quote from the owner of the bar who picked the name, but that seems unlikely. It's also interesting to note that in the above quote, in the second paragraph, the title of the film is used (Whisky Galore!), rather than the title of the book (Whiskey Galore). People can't seem to stop getting things wrong about this poor book. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whisky_Galore_(novel) Well spotted by the way. It seems like a mistake that has been repeated in a number of articles.
  16. Couldn't fewer girly bars mean that there was a shorter supply and thus an increase in prices? Especially if freelance was not as popular.
  17. Since we're talking about the term, let's take a look at where the name comes from: Fascinating, huh? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go-go_bar
