Yes he needs to get out more.
Some members have commented on how many posts i make, but never more than 10 in any 1 day.
Also as my legs dont work anymore, i have an excuse, as i find it very difficult to get out.

Member for one day and 34 posts? Oh, life must be sooooo boring in Bangkok these days

Well considering they did a back flip and are now saying side sois will be allowed to operate so why not have the street food festival? Side sois are streets.

Do you think that the food carts that pitch up outside so many 7 eleven's do so un-asked and with impunity? The sad franchise holders are so cash-strapped with their 'investment' in the CP empire, they need to rent out that space to make ends meet. I have noted a trend for newer, larger 7 elevens to have a large, designated, signposted 'customers only'  parking area out front and a conspicuous absence of vendors. Maybe CP's newer franchise agreements prohibit owners making any extra money this way?

Maybe rent it to a hat seller but never a food and drink seller

However I was talking about the thousands of mom n pop resteraunts across Thailand . They are hard workers to, why do they have to pay rent and tax?

                         Actually, both Thailand and Malaysia failed to spot the plane's trajectory, and the plane most likely traversed the peninsula where their two borders meet.  If they can't spot a large passenger jet lumbering by their borders, then what the heck can their radar do?   Perhaps it's just a hollow non-functioning expensive showcase, like the 25,000 security cameras which never work in Bangkok.

No, they probably don't pay tax but then again they're not sitting in front of the TV waiting for a dole cheque or some other social benefits handout like a lot back in Farangistan do. I complement any man/woman who tries to make a living - irrespective of whether or not they pay tax. 
 

This campaign will kick Cambodia tourism in the guts.
Half the tourists are there for the hassle free drug culture

Since long bar/red-light occupation is not an indicator for the kind of cheap mass tourism that makes up for the numbers. If you want to see the masses I suggest:

visit Bali Hai at 9 AM, do a boat trip to Ko Lan (NOT!).

watch the tour buses coming in

watch the crowds at Suvarnabhumi transport level heading to Pattaya, the pennant swingers followed by their herds.

...

 

Just read today that during low season May to July another 200'000 Chinese might come on top due to some kind of "ban" from South Korea.

 

 

I caught the catamaran to hua hin last week and was at bahli hi at 9 am for 10 am departure... I have never seen anything like it!

The pier was completely full like an exit tunnel after a major rock concert. There were hundreds and hundreds of them.

Clearly the tourist demographic in Pattaya is changing

Relying on "porn" the beer bar girl saying no boom boom now many customer gone no longer holds any weight.

Anything that does involve concentrating on the plot.

Sorry but cartoons or some type of fantasy with dragons and warlocks.

Best of luck

Thais can't even walk a short distance, most expats in Bangkok would agree that walking any distance in Bangkok is just too sweaty. So what are the sidewalks for if not for providing cheap food? Bangkok is a filthy place, even so, I have never got sick from street food in 30 years. If you love to walk, live in London, probably the best walking city in the world.

These head injuries will come back to haunt you in later life.
You just had 2. How you know that's the end of them, sounds like your on a roll.

Bycycle in bangkok is insanity.

Those links seem to be dead.

Most of the links you will get are going to be dead or 15 years old.

TV is great for where is the cheapest pizza or happy hours in beer bars but the majority are struggling to pay 4k rent.

Not the place to ask about condo purchase unless you want a run around

If they are thais below you, nothing on God's earth will disturb their sleep.

You should be worried about what will travel up through your floor

Nearly human trafficking?

I'll bet quite a good proportion of Thai life gets on your tits by the sounds of it. 

OMG lol.

I don't drive.

Did I say I want to change anything. Step back from the Hong tong my good friend

What's stressing you out dude? It's an open forum you can talk.

Speed limiters, no don't want - -  too much trouble to circumvent. 

I have never once been to Khao San Rd, nor do I intend to, far more interesting places in BKK.

This is Thailand (TiT) i'm sure there is lots of room for you in your home country to walk the footpaths at will, airlines leave everyday.

 

people complain about immigrants wanting to change their adopted country, now non immigrants want to do it.

I guess you got agitated and did not read my post properly , the bit about I live next to a bts and doesn't affect me.

It clearly doesn't effect you either, out of sight out of mind eh?

Food carts in side sois cause total chaos. There is barely enough room for 2 lanes and they show up and you have one lane!

Lucky I live next to a bts and don't put up with it.

Yeah but why would a city like Bangkok ever want to end up a sterile, soulless bore of a place like S'pore?

Where to find a mall or restaurant open in the local area at 3 am, when p*ssed???

I believe they all have to register. 

Lots of guys in the West have "do not revive ' tattooed on their chest, some have long term illness or just sick of living.

You could get that done in thai and roll the dice on whether you wake up or not

Or

Tattoo do not treat at bumingrad , that would work with all uninsured in bangkok

An elderly friend fainted outside villa market was taken straight to the Bumrungrad where he got double pneumonia.

2 weeks 1.2m baht which he paid

They never found out why he fainted

Sadly, neither location is currently served by the BTS or MRT (though Chinatown is getting close), and the beauty of street food is the convenience of stepping out of your 3 or 4 or 5 star hotel and stumbling across it.  Not making a slog halfway across town to slurp up some 40 baht noodles.

Edit

Unfortunate spot to break down for sure, but if he is telling the truth, he did the right thing with hazard lights and cones. Some drivers here are just crazy whether their vehicle is restricted to 90kmh or not. I wish the passengers a speedy recovery and assume their well-being might well be down to the fact they were probably wearing seat belts.
