Everything posted by it is what it is

  1. 'them' being... thais? scots? thai/scots? at least be specific with your bigotry.
  2. He is executing a plan to reshape global trade he clearly has no plan, any fool can see that. i also doubt he even has the capacity to make a plan.
  3. i'd avoid. go to fortune town, less of a tourist trap rip off place
  4. still open, but big plans turned to dust. it's open, but barely, kind of sad, the place had character.
  5. i know, it's a no brainer, easy to do and puts an end to faffing around and stressing some people can't seem to see the wood for the trees
  6. i wouldn't say thai society was feudal , are you sure you understand the meaning? it is though very hierarchical and conformist
  7. judging by your post she probably wanted someone with an education too.
  8. yea, the guy was drunk and in the wrong, but professional door staff will never get into unnecessary street brawls with members of the public, however much they are provoked.
  9. it's always been clear there is no plan or logic, just pathetic, weak enablers more concerned about themselves than their fellow citizens or country, when is an american, any american, going to stop cow towing to this idiot and stand up and be counted
  10. nope, that's generally the picture. it's the media, and uninformed, who think the roads are any deadlier during holidays, the statistics clearly show this is not the case.
  11. Guess it is and no country is perfect well yea, in the usa you can buy a gun in a shop and then go and shoot people, puts parking in front of someone's garage into perspective. though in america someone'd probably shoot you if you did it.
  12. assume you're referring to americans, this whole mess is due to american citizens
  13. How are you going to run a casino if any Thai going into it has to pay 5k and have 50K in the bank? Not many of the card dealers or wait staff I know have that kind of money. your comment says more about you than thailand, i don't know any card dealers or wait staff, but i do know plenty of business owners, business people, lawyers, professionals and for sure they have THAT KIND of money, and more. methinks you are hanging out with the low class, uneducated, get out of the bar and discover the real thailand and thai people, it truly is amazing if you look.
  14. i recall being in a 7/11 and a do gooder gen z individual pompously castigating another customer for buying a nestle product, seemingly completely ignorant of the fact he was shopping in a 7/11...
  15. doesn't look like excess speed was a factor...
  16. i think i did my photo online... certainly the uk gov site is escellent
  17. go see a physiotherapist, i only needed two sessions, he taught me a stretch regime that after two weeks as well as removing the pain also made my body feel 10 year younger. a year later i still do the stretches twice a day, you need to help yourself, but the results can be amazing.
  18. too much of a generalisation, in the uk rapes and sexual assaults have been reported at the time but ignored, or not investigated by the police, as has happened very recently women assaulted by Al Fayad
  19. well yea, happens in many countries around the world, so thailand has done well to have gone so long without a major data breach.
  20. unfortunately, while the earthquake is being covered by the world's media it will be prominent in potential tourists' minds. the european market will probably not be affected too much but the chinese, and particularly the japanese, are very safety conscious travelers. once the news reporting stops, and if there are no more tremors, things will slowly return to normal.
  21. absolutely, the CPS would not sanction charges without sufficient evidence
  22. can't be bothered to read all that. my experience, in summary, pre-smart phone internet dating, thailand friends/DIA was amazing, i met and slept with countless, well in excess of 100 maybe 200, genuine thai women, no messing around with prostitutes and requests for payment. at the time it was normal, in hindsight it was amazing. i dabble a bit with internet dating these days but it's not the same, it's much harder work, though i still get my fair share of success.
  23. might make me sound weird, i was never into the bar or sex industry scene (tbh i never had trouble finding a gf), but back in the day i did like to wander the red light area just watching what was going on. the therme was an interesting place to sit, have a drink and just watch, i witnessed the slow change as the japanese guys took over, after that it ceased to be interesting.
  24. and... what? i bought a beautiful house in the uk and rent in bkk, perfect.
