  1. Yes, in fact, it is the owner that should have been poisoned. That would have solved the problem for now and in the future.
  2. Unlikely. Much more likely that the dog owner had a ridiculous number of dogs and the owner did not keep them contained. Like the guy who lives here:
  3. "This was the seventh case of one of her dogs being poisoned." I wonder if she is getting the message. It is a nasty business poisoning dogs, but sometimes that's the only way you can deal with them when the owner is irresponsible and the dogs are harassing people, killing chickens and otherwise misbehaving. I have never understood anybody needing ten dogs -- or even three.
  4. There is a very good possibility that the farang picked up the bottle and waited, and waited, and waited to pay, then just said phuck it and left. That doesn't justify the theft. But I have certainly been there and done that -- with the waiting game -- not the theft.
  5. Tesco? there is no more Tesco Lotus. Lotus has become a part of the Great CP Farm to Table Monopoly.
  6. Only a fool would! Not me. I stay as far as possible from the government. Visa, driver license, that's it. Enough.
  7. I am quite the opposite after 15 years here. The driving is the number one thing I absolutely love. I used to get so many tickets back in my home country, not for unsafe behavior mind you, but simply for violations with no connection to safety. Such as coming up to a stop sign where you can see miles in every direction with no traffic so you roll on through. TICKET!!! Here, just don't hurt anybody else and you can do pretty much as you wish. You can run red lights where there is no conflicting traffic, you can drive as fast as you wish, you can even drive on the wrong side of the road to avoid having to drive 2km to the next U-turn! If one does get a ticket from one of those tax assessing cameras, just toss it in the trash! I love this atmosphere of personal responsibility and freedom. You are free to make your own decisions, but if you hurt someone, you are responsible. I simply cannot understand why foreigners come here and observe rational driving for the first time in their lives and think it is "unfriendly." There are rude drivers everywhere, but I have found that the great lion's share Thai drivers are polite, helpful and courteous. Much more so than where I came from. I absolutely love this aspect of Thailand an hope it never changes.
  8. I love it! Love this so much. After Prayut's and the military's big purge trying to eradicate every Thaksin stem and root, they might be back! Comedy doesn't get any better than this! Bravo Paetongtarn! Love your red shirt!!! Way to rub their noses in it!
  9. Every time that happens to me, I just smile back and walk away without a word, leaving the basket of half-checked goods behind me. He who has the last laugh . . .
  10. Well that is one way to deep six the proposed bill to break the alcohol monopoly!!!
  11. Nonsense. Training matters, but the breed has a lot to do with temperament. You apparently do not know much about dogs and should probably not own one. Nor should you be offering your speculative advice.
  12. Putin obviously does not care for his stranded citizens. If he did, he would order Aeroflot to take whatever round about route was needed to evacuate stranded Russian tourists around the world. They are stranded through no fault of their own. But they MUST take responsibility for their leader. I hope they have brains enough to remember that their war criminal abandoned them.
