  1. Welcome to Thailand. This is normal and actually cleaner than toilet paper.
  2. What does that smell like? I have never had the pleasure of smelling fried human flesh. Is it worth seeking out?
  3. "It is forbidden to defecate casually. This is Singapore!" Nothing beats a little bit of casual defecation.
  4. I am not saying this case was suicide, but surely the best time to off yourself is when there is nobody around. Am I right?
  5. "$33 for steak and salad. The barmaids are 70kgs" "At least you don't have 6 months of British winter." The Venn Diagram intersection for Dollars and Kilograms suggest Australia, so the concept of a 6 month winter is unlikely.
  6. The point Bantex was making was that the image shown in the aseannow clickbait photo is wrong. I wonder what the actual engine in this actual aircraft in this article looked like.
  7. For such a long time I wished there was an "angry" button, also missing. It seems that only positive icons are allowed. Keep the people happy if they like it or not.
  8. Perhaps let them sleep it off in one of the upstairs rooms, and send an employee up with them to take care of them for the night..
  9. I avoid all these complications and risks by always leaving a couple of days before my permitted stay expires. I know I could have an extra day or two in Thailand but I would rather just not take the risk of a cancelled or delayed flight, or even something unlikely like an accident on the way to the airport. Last year my flight got cancelled and I could not get a replacement flight till about a week after my permission expired. I was lucky because I still had a couple of days left on my Passport stamp so I could go to Immigration and get a 30 day extension. If I cut it too fine and was already on overstay because of the cancelled flight I don't know what the consequences would have been for me, especially if was unlucky enough to be checked by police on the street. I prefer to be safe than sorry.
  10. Orcs will be orcs. Lucky these quality tourists now have 90 days of visa free access to Thailand unlike the rest of the rabble who only qualify for 30 days.
  11. I have started using the Bard AI web page for Thai<->English translations because they seem much better than the weird translations provided by Google. Bard also makes changes to the translation to make it more natural-sounding and accurate.
  12. Congratulations on reaching old age without needing filling. You obviously took good care of your teeth over a lifetime. I have had many fillings since my youth and some of them came out and caused problems after a couple of decades or longer. If you are already in your 70s for example, chances are your new fillings will outlive you. Go to a dentist and get an expert opinion.
  13. I use the Fusion 5 blades. They seem to be good for at least 6 months each before I start noticing the blade getting dull. Hmmm. Now that I think about it, at 6 months a blade (6 packs each 4 blades) I probably have about 12 years worth in the drawer. Then it will be time to grow a beard.
  14. A year ago my local supermarket had the wrong price on the razor blades I usually buy. They are usually around $29.95 for a pack of 4 but these were priced at $9.95 so I think someone accidentally dropped the leading '2' in the computer system. Anyway, I bought all the packets on the shelf and now I have a supply of cheap blades for the next 5 years. They don't even have a used by date.
  15. At least they weigh much more than before unlike potato chip packets and chocolate bars.
  16. I don't mind ladies looking at my bum as long as I can look at theirs in return.
  17. That is brilliant. I cannot stop laughing.
  18. There is your answer. Money is the most important thing for Thailand. People don't matter.
  19. He has a YouTube channel and the article gives his full name. It takes 30 seconds to find his "over-complicated butter chicken" video and see his face. Why do they bother to blur it in the photos in the article?
  20. I read in the Spanish news that he was in a homosexual relationship with the guy he murdered but was actually heterosexual and just in it for the money. When the "chef" got bored and tried to get out of the relationship the doctor blackmailed him and threatened to tell his family if he did not stay. So instead of just saying "I don't care, tell them" he decided murder was the answer. Too bad for both of them that they could not sort out their little differences like gentlemen.
  21. I know which one I would be paying first.
