My observations for a recent trip to Pattaya.
I respect the guys who can sit alone more then I do guys who are buying other people drinks. At least there is some dignity there. Everyone knows buying other people drinks in pattaya is Bs. They are not gaining any respect doing that, just fake smiles and looking like a chump.

Did you try retirement in another country before Thailand and why did you leave?
I lived in mexico and some guy on the beach selling trinkets stood by me the whole time. He would not leave or move. They call them sea anenomies and poncho villa.

Are you expat from another Asian countries
It's not Vietnam or I would be there. Same with Malaysia. Can you guess why?

If you don't like it Leave ! Root canal
You're probably better off getting it done locally, unless you are out in the country somewhere. I went back and forth to bangkok for an involved procedure when I needed a specialist and it becomes difficult and tiring when you need several sessions. The cost of transport and lodging needs to be considered.

I know people in the Usa that had teeth pulled because they could not afford the costly treatments. Sad.

Pattaya Bar/Go-Go Death Watch
That's because there's not much else to show. One guy does apartment tours posing like a prospective renter, sometimes gentlemans clubs. Only thing left of interest to most people are bars and go-go's which you can't really take a tripod and camera into and actively film. The girls don't want to be interviewed. That leaves just a bunch of street shots and the same old babble, here is lk metro, here is soi pothole, etc. Same stuff hundreds of guys have filmed before.

Advice how to deal.
Item needs to be returned before a refund is issued. Ask them how they want the refund after you get the item back. You can refund the amount to ship it back also.

Pattaya Bar/Go-Go Death Watch
It's pitiful. Almost nobody on a live stream will ever turn up at a bar in person. It's all guys watching from the Usa mostly. They are sitting in one of the party capitals of the world begging for online drinks and views. I looked down soi pothole tonight on saturday and it was practically empty.

Sounds too cheap to me. Are you going to small hole in the wall places? Did it have private rooms, or a communal room with other patients?

Anywhere in all Thailand that has consistently good or reasonable air quality…..anywhere?
Never seen poor air quality around the islands but maybe I just missed it.

I have just been going in for cleanings at various places. If I don't like the dentist I just never return since they don't do serious work on the same day, typically. One place wanted to do a 1k baht x-ray battery before I even met the dentist. How would they know I needed the x-ray without even looking in my mouth? I could have had perfect teeth. I just walked out.

Pattaya Vs Chiang Mai Friendliness
It's not so much where they are, it's the people around Pattaya. They are working with people who don't have a lot of self control. That's what hedonism is. People who don't want to or can't limit sensual pleasures. The further out from the Central area you go the less you will encounter them. So they are around people acting kind of goofy, angry, overly emotionally happy, whatever, and not very stable. Most people trying to live a normal working life won't be happy with such people because it's very irritating and draining to deal with them.

Two Foreign Tourists Arrested on Pattaya Beach for Refusing to Pay for Beach Chairs
A lot of people would not buy anything if they were being charged to sit down to drink it.

Just picked up my new UK passport from BKK.......
Isn't there a website around with the regulations? Seems kind of crazy to not know or guess about what you need to do.

British man found dead in luxury Chon Buri condominium
Sorry you passed away, man. Many single old guys around these parts living and passing on. Always has me a bit worried. Well, see you around. Glad you were here.

That's my understanding. Gold is much softer then ceramic. Gold flexes with the tooth better and is less likely to cause or worsen cracks. Ceranic is hard, but unyielding, so the tooth must give way to the material more resulting in a higher possibility of cracks or grinding into nearby teeth as the teeth shift over time.

It feels like a lot of places in Pattaya are rushed or that there are too many customers to handle. I can feel it when I go in. One thing I don't want rushed is dental work or the next person waiting out in the lobby for the next appointment.

The low prices quoted for root canals (10/15k) etc are only for base uncomplicated cases. The price goes way up for re-doing old root canals, use of microscopes, ultrasonic cleanses, etc etc. You don't typically know the total cost beforehand.

Hiring A "Lady Take Care Me" Advice?
Do you have Paraphilic Infantilism? One of the things adults with that fetish don't like is any kind of romance, it's too adult for them. It's about being cared for, which can have erotic overtones and situations, but not of the usual adult variety.

Not if the chair is not on the menu. It's not chargable.

Hiring A "Lady Take Care Me" Advice?
I just noticed that your avatar looks real innocent and "baby-ish" as well 😂. Being an "adult baby" is a fetish and there are fetish groups that do that. It's called Paraphilic Infantilism. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraphilic_infantilism

Hiring A "Lady Take Care Me" Advice?
It's interesting that you are using baby-talk in the thread title and question. "take care me" I wonder if there is something else going on here other then the physical assistance requested.
