  1. Yeah, only certain foreigners are greeted regularly at the airport with flowers and wais.
  2. I heard that a taxi driver in Bangkok got fined 2000 baht for killing a farang pedestrian. That's it. 2000 baht. When I cross the street my head is on a swivel. I probably look left and right 6 times before I get to the other side of the street.
  3. I always verbally confirm with the driver when I get into the car.
  4. The British guy was arrested in Phi Phi and brought back to Phuket to be prosecuted. 🤣 There goes the rest of his vacation.
  5. Meh, some people want to be far away from their relatives. Reminds me of a line in the Morris Panych's play Vigil: I'm sorry I said all those awful things to you but I thought you were a relative. Also reminds me of my favorite line in Jean-Paul Sartre's play No Exit: Hell is other people.
  6. Women prefer overdosing as well. Easy enough to do in Thailand.
  7. Thailand prefers the tourists that spend like drunken sailors.
  8. I hear some Thais reach down to the ground in pretending to pick up a rock to throw at the dog. If there are a lot of aggressive dogs you could always carry a real rock. Hmm, would carrying a hammer and some nails be legal?
  9. Same traffic rules on all intersections in Thailand. Biggest vehicle has the right of way.
  10. I guess you are unfamiliar with the long gone Eden Club. She had a collection of toys.
  11. Any yet, it is the dodgy farangs showing up in the news. Go figure! On a side note, a woman once told me at Eden Club that the majority of British visitors enjoy being buggered. Make of that what you will.
  12. Meh I don't think it will make any real impact. Cashed up farangs and asians will easily be replaced by other cashed up farangs and asians. The only thing that slowed down tourism overall in Thailand was covid.
  13. Cars in India have louder horns than elsewhere. Indians really love to lay into their horns. They will honk their horns while stopped at a red light.
  14. Maybe the servers will improve.
  15. Hello, welcome! https://youtu.be/ZyRbQ0eCzds?si=HCgu34zghq9MOVPv
  16. Life seems cheap in South East Asia. Long prison sentences are reserved for drug traffickers.
  17. If you think that this is a tiny infraction, no wonder Thais want farangs to go back to their own countries.
  18. Breathe through your nose.
  19. At least they are not taking a dump in the middle of the street.
  20. Heat exhaustion or heat stroke or 30 Changs a day?
  21. Bondi Westfield killer named as Queensland man Joel Cauchi https://www.news.com.au/national/nsw-act/darkhaired-bondi-shopping-centre-killer-wearing-kangaroos-jersey-from-queensland/news-story/6064db5194a0cc5097ed723d29e18f8a Joel is white AF. Perhaps he is another radical Christian?
