You are aware that you are speaking about like nearly a year minimum wage, like western terms: 15-20K USD, if you say it is reasonable for Thailand? The court here assumes minimum wages, that is why many fines are considered a joke to us aka very low. Like child support by judge is only 3K a month at most. To have received 50,000 baht is actually a lot already I think.

That's the main thing that Thailand offers yes, the rest is just classical things that are not extraordinary such as: beaches, mountains, temples, some basic water parks and general activities you have basically anywhere already, and they cost a lot most times. That is the entire reason they have been trying since 5 years to diversify the offerings here from TAT and Gov side. It is also clearly visible in guesthouses etc, there is way less offerings and flyers than there once were, or they simply not run at all during low season. To not start about that half is not maintained and old (zoo's, waterparks etc etc).

I remember many years ago I was casually stopped in sukhumvit by 2 on a bike, I was drunk, they knew. So we basically ended up in a hot pot place, where I had to pay for, aside from a bottle of red label, which we all shared... I mean that was a great deal, it costed me like 2-3K only for DUI.

You must have been living under a rock if you didn't see how everything in nightlife, activities and more has been in a heavy downtrend ever since 2019. No matter where you go, even nana or soi 6 in pattaya, it's not close to how it once was. And that is just one thing, I was talking other events. Everything here is just simple, same shopping streets, there is barely variety.

That's not even that much more unusual, if you then take a Business man from that same Shanghai city, he could likely buy 6-10 floors, a small building. Now let alone if they form groups, which they do. It's peanuts for them to do.

It's called survival if you live in a 20-40sqm shoebox with 2 people fulltime.

1) Money 2) White skin 3) Muscles

Sounds to me the real issue here was that you started a court case for something insignificant, hence you were only rewarded with 50,000 out of 300,000 baht maximum compensation. So if it was a more proper reason, you likely would have been break-even on the costs, or even have made a small profit? Normally, as lawyers can vary in how much they cost, there is simply standard compensation fees. The lawyer is likely afraid that the judge will laugh at him for billing you so much, and he for that reason cant order the other person to pay for that.

Yes it is like a sand clock: the bottom is smoking and the top is not smoking. Currently the top fills the bottom, but when the bottom is full, smoking is now dull, turning it around by not being a smoker would be fulfilling again. I seem to have some version where it takes less time when filling it up to the other side of it again though hehehe.

It's more likely the other way around to be honest. Most people get an increased desire for actual sex with a partner, when not smoking after smoking a lot.

Guess that makes sense, they were still far enough away for it to be nearer to KL than BKK, or near enough.

Nothing wrong with being sober, I just always feel sad if someone leaves weed behind forever, while it might not been the cause. In your cause, I understood already its just a break, i have no opinion otherwise on how people smoke, not my life. have a good one.

Well in a way, yes, many of these International sport groups that do events in another country every year, or just go to another country with all their people once a year, avoid Thailand as of the issues with regulations, they would need work permits for their own instructors, for the 1-2 weeks event or hire Thais that would be useless. Basically nobody here wants to organize anything, nor bring their own groups of travellers as a small travel company guide abroad, because you are always being hunted down like a jew during WW2, as soon you do anything commercial or appearing to be commercial. That's why Thailand became so super dull and boring too. Only a few big players can do this, for them it's no issue to obtain the paperwork or staff etc.

Just buy some of the xtra small ones with their papers, if you didn't like it i pay you back.

Just try purize activated charcoal filters with ceramic ends, they have glass too but that is not comparable at all, and you would not use that in a paper joint either. Me thinks you might do smoke too much in the early mornings lol.

You are missing out on the good life then, try it with a coffee and a mixed hybrid joint.

Weird...

Different incident and story.

I am totally not into edibles, even I know I should, as you say smoking is not exactly good, that is also the only argument against weed IMHO. To take regular breaks as a daily smoker is important in my opinion, I didn't mention that part but I usually have a week break with just 1-2 small pure ones when visiting Vietnam every 3-4 months. Since I use Purize filters in my joints, I cough much less though, and the taste is better. I do mix with tobacco, love the taste.

Hehe I always start with a joint and coffees with 4 hours work, then I do a work out with dumbells, then a shave and shower + breakfast lunch at once. After 2-4 hours more and done for the day, all this wil smoking, just not super strong. To me it is really like a medicine and mainly for the taste, i'd say i'm pretty much always at the same level of high 24/7. Id love building and painting some fences for money with a joint as long its not too hot yet in the early mornings.

One wonders, they just send like dozens daily and most get trough, or they really catch most seldom attempts who try.

Interesting, I disagree to blame the weed on this though. I smoke daily from morning to evening a few since over 15 years. I always wake up early, I always do my work. Perhaps you were smoking too little, and then a heavy one before sleeping, causing you to sleep very deep and that would cause you to become sluggish and late. To then not even start digging into what you actually smoke, indica or sativa etc etc. I always say weed highlights your weaknesses and strenghts, so work on them instead of blaming weed for highlighting what is already within you.

Feels good on your second day? How much did you smoke in the first place, because you would feel anything but good at day 2, maybe at day 5-7. Then as a consequence; you feel brighter, more social, sharp, get a <deleted> load of stuff done for X weeks, then realize, it is super boring to be that alert all the time and smoke again.

Many people do, because you don't have the money doesn't mean other don't have it too. It is very common for a Chinese buyer to buy the entire floor, not one unit, as that costs them the same as just 1-2 units are in Shanghai etc. It's smart too, owning an entire floor.

Yeah then the Chinese mafia just buys 75% and then buys 25% in Thai people their names, who they control, now they run a building.
