In Thailand, the media has NO strategy other than ensuring they don't rock the boat or tread on any important toes.

"most Thai"? You been busy doing one of your nationwide polls again?

And.. So the sedan driver doing a runner is justified because it is possible that the saleng had no lights? I see.

I recall it used to be fun and games when you were assailed by such people, engaging them in eager conversation just long enough to catch them in their own lies. Life's too short for that game these days. Whenever an opinionated sort thinks it's his righ to bend my ear and to see things as they see them, I simply let my eyes glaze over and quietly turn on my white noise generator. It's one of the best gadgets I ever bought on lazada.

You really should give up on Lotus's and do your shopping at Big C. You'll find a much better class of farang stuff strutter there and far fewer muppets.

You need to stop thinking bob, you're rubbish at it.

Triggered.

He could return with a gun or machete though, not at all uncommon when a Thai male has his ego bruised or something taken from him that he thinks he's entitled to. You'd be well advised to keep that in mind. But the OP's probably taken good advice and changed the locks several times already, so the kid can fire his gun or wave his machete around in the yard for as long as he wants. The OP will be safely locked up inside the house.

Was that the one that (almost?) won POTY? Or was there another dodgy sort?

Since when has frugality and sartorial inelegance been a metric for assessing a person's character or mental health?

I will wait for the chap who recently complained here about being unable to exchange his bin bags for food in a 7-eleven to comment on what's a sustainable income.

I am sooooooo busted!

Really? How far apart are these bar stools?

Here's another. You have your valid UK passport with a valid visa or extension for long-term stay in Thailand, valid proof of residence in Switzerland, a valid Swiss DL, proof of your local, Thai address and some cash. Now go and get your Thai DL.

None. True, and the OP has a valid reason. Not a showstopper.

If you read the OP, it doesn't say the GF (THE MOTHER) wants her farang BF (THE OP) to do the kicking out either. He (and YOU) assume that it his responsibility where in reality, it is very, very far from it.

When it is NOT my house and NOT my sibling then no, I won't be locking anything. Hope you didn't hold your breath.

Still relishing being the bar fly, eh? YNTGOM

Argued and explained over four years ago. Do try and keep up.

Where does this prim suggestion of someone "mounting" someone else come from? Sounds like bible-speak to me.

I am not knocking America or Americans, just stating the facts. It may be due to individual states, counties and municipalities having the freedoms to enact their laws as well as the federal laws. I am not sure if it has anything to do with people that "don't belong" or the abuses of the rich and the powerful, but someone in Massachusetts thought that consenting adults sleeping together naked in a hotel was so heinous that it needed legislating against. Back on topic, a branch of 7-eleven being unable to allow goods to be exchanged rather than refunded is a very, very poor metric for assessing convenience store customer service, let alone the whole nation's hospitality. But well done to the OP for wringing a 13-page Thai bash out of his weird, personal shopping experience (if it ever happened).

I think you have issues with people who don't have issues with trans.

Maybe he's into humans? You should try it. And you know why that is, don't you Richard? It's because you're only seeking out the younger ones. Oh...the paradox of it all.

What's with all this 'changing the locks' nonsense. This is Isaan where gates and doors are left unlocked for all and sundry to wander in and out. You only lock up when you are going out of the house or going off to bed. Does the son even need a key to get in and out during the day? Or anyone in the family for that matter?

That's quite easily the saddest potted biography I've read in a long, long time.
