Yeah, but I still miss my Chevy burger.

I recall taking a stripper to the first Lollapalooza at Fort Bend and coming home with two of them. The following year, I took both of them to South Padre for Spring Break. More fun than a bag of kittens. They were being hit up on the beach by the young stud students, so they would take them back to the beach rental for lap dances in the kitchen. The guys were queuing up at the back door, each dropping a twenty in the big pickle jar on the counter for a five-minute crotch grind. We banked and didn't need to spend any of our own money. About ten years later, I was an older Florida heiress's toy boy in the Caribbean. However, despite the impressive monthly stipend, private jets and the free Mercedes-Benz convertible, the social stigma of being a gigolo got too much, so I went back to work, eventually ending up as a baker in Peru.

So there you have it. Educated Thai men can be as equally misogynistic as the proles. Or the foreign mongers, sex pests and what have you.

You can get 60-month financing on a new BMW too. Or a Merc.

Hadn't even been invented.

Says the guy who creates acronyms for strippers boyfriends. What else should I call a "dick dancer"?

It's truly anachronistic for a matriarchal society, isn't it? Maybe if the blokes acknowledged that, it would be better.

Thanks for the potted exercise in moralization and Thai social structures. I hope someone got something from it. The OP is a bit tongue-in-cheek, but it alluded to a degree of jealousy on behalf of the aging Lothario's that walk among us (you know who you are). My comment simply drew an American strip club parallel with the Thai go-go bar. The WPOSB of Houston is the "unemployed greasy little Thai men" of the OP. I am not sure why some went off on jealousy, but hey, that's maybe their thing. But, while you're asking what made the strippers good-looking boyfriends losers... or WPOSB's? Well, they dance around naked for drunk old women to grab their dicks to start with. At least their bangin' hot girlfriends waited until you were in the VIP Room together before grabbing yours.

Maybe because they are not?

It does appear that you are lonely this afternoon.

By omitting the last sentence, yes, you did change the meaning of my post.

Won't the immigration officer have a cow when the OP does his next 90-day report after he comes back? It's long been the case that the airport IO doesn't have any interest in 90-day reports being either late or delinquent. However, I vaguely recall from a few years back that some people reported that they were fined at (I think) Jomtien for skipping the 90-day report filing under the same circumstances as the OP, ie. leaving the country without filing a few days after it was due. When they turned up to do the first 90-day report after they returned, the IO picked it up in their computer, and they were fined. Could have been a one-off, IO having a 'bad hair day' sort of event.

You aren't supposed to edit other people's posts. It's a forum rule apparently. That's why.

Still not a good look @Nick Carter icp, not good at all.

I expect that you were all envious of their boyfreinds , you having to pay to see them naked and the BF banging them for free Please don't edit my post to fit your narrative. It is not a good look.

It's not about England either.

The things one sees when you don't pay the bar fine and stalk your dream dancer after hours.

When I used to hang with my buddies at Houston's strip clubs, we would label the hot dancers boyfriends as "worthless piece-of-sh*t boyfriend" or WPOSB. The good-looking or ripped WPOSB's were usually what we called 'dick dancers' at the women-only strip club. From customer to entertainer, we are all at some level of loserdom.

In a bar. Dogged persistence and a good word from her BFF. I wasn't trying to rob a cradle here, never have been. She was nice, pretty and behaved more mature, like she was in her late teens or early twenties. I was never in doubt about her being on the wrong side of the age of consent, so I didn't feel any need to make sure. I had seen a few that were obviously of questionable age and I steered clear of them. As I said before, I wasn't looking for a youngster. Never had been. That doesn't float my boat. You must have me confused with someone else. I am not a teacher, never have been and don't want to be either. I didn't feel uncomfortable if that's what you are suggesting. As I said before, she didn't look like 'jail bait'. I never had a burning desire to find out how old (or young) she was from a legal point of view, but after a few dates, and talking about a mutual friend's birthday party, I casually asked when her birthday was. Dates were exchanged, no big deal. We got married about two years later. I do recall my Best Man best buddy having a laugh when, on the eve of getting married, I told him I was two months older than my future father-in-law. Her parents didn't care about the age gap either. But enough about me and back to my original comment about the friend of the OP that you find contradictory. I was going by my 'gut feel'. The way I see it, if the question of age is stirring one's 'gut feel', then it is probably best to err on the side of caution. Anyway, the OP's friend has checked her ID and the girl is 18. No problem and good luck.

Mint mobile used to have a pay-as-you-go UpRoam option that enabled 2FA messages to be received for a few cents whenever you needed them. However, that option is no longer available and has been replaced by Minternational Pass which has three options: 1-day for $5, 3-day for $10 or 10-day for $20. So that's going to be minimum five bucks each time you need to do a single 2FA procedure.

In Udon Thani, HomePro has extended with their wholly-owned Mega Home under one big roof. HomePro was the least likely place I would do home improvement or DIY shopping before, with Global House, DoHome and Thai Watsadu being preferred. But this expanded/merged HomePro/Mega Home is pretty good.

Less people flying to/from UK to Thailand = more expensive airfares for that route.

This also seems like a good option. Scroll to the last post from @FarangRimPing

An American friend of mine is using a Tello eSIM that he set up online while here in Thailand. It's $5.50/month and works for 2FA with his banks and online stuff.

Last time I checked, Google voice asks for a non VOIP number as part of the account setup.
