Knew a guy afraid to talk to girls. drank a beer. talked to a girl, got married, 11 kids, happy, married for 48 years. Sometimes it is good............................sometimes it is.............................. If, however, you are a fighter pilot...............well......

Sorry, bro. As you know, you are in the Matrix and I guess I got your character. Let me use your credit card and order some wool socks, wool hat, down jacket, and put a fireplace in your room. I would admit it feels a FEW degrees colder........15 now APPEARS to feel closer to 12 or something, but nothing that makes me say, "WOW, these temperatures are lying!!!!" It's not like I have to go outside with pants ........................... so it can't be that cold. or sleep with socks. or even sleep with a cap. or layer at all.. yea, it's normal for me. OK< I'll adjust your character's setting

I went to Vegas just to walk around all the casinos but never wagered one bet!!! The question is, What did you think it looked like? Did you like how it looked? Why did you need to see what it looked like? Why look here instead of a meditation retreat? Guilty by association. I lived in Pattaya for 12,000 years because of the number of days of sunshine every year, nothing more!!!!! sure, buddy.... whatever.....

Absolutely NOT. America is easily the best country, and always will be in my mind. People like Thailand because they don't understand anything, or want to. Eyes closed mentally. Working for decades in the best country, going to every state, enjoying everything, and then taking a "life break" to Thailand certainly doesn't mean I LOS is better. I'm not retired here, just relaxing for a number of years. I still have deep roots back home. When you speak Thai and get to know many college kids (if you are a teacher, example), you will begin to hear the complains very, very similar to back home...if not worse. grass isn't greener at all, just way easier. not tied to LOS at all. 100% tied to USA. Let's go!!! USA< USA< USA.

Common sense goes out the window when you come to LOS. WE all know how dangerous it is.....told every day....but then we eagerly get in the cheapest bus to travel, sometimes overnight. Thais, on the other hand, are usually much more limited financially and cannot chose like we can. If you only travel a few times a year, maybe take a plane. sure, it's more expensive, but better odds you will live. luckily, I haven't been in an overnight van for about 6 years.

As they say, he died doing what he loved. Pattaya, Walking Street, how can it get any better!!!!!!

negative reaction of the worst kind.

I saw TWO tourists I've never seen before today................... Back to COVID!!!! I don't care if I have to take 100 more jabs, I need some peace and quiet. Dogs? still insane. Music? all day, every day.... Traffic? OMG, the worst!!!!! Thailand......................................... paradise. If only I owned a country!!!!! Oh wait, I have 340 baht to my name.................. Misery loves company, keep updating us with the influx of tourists!!! The worst!!!!!! Let's hope none of them have fun

Nobody can really answer this. Most dangerous roads on Earth, people have died before from a bus crashing. Most make it out alive. Overnight seems to be more dangerous, but people have died during the day. Safe? Not very, but I would risk it to save a few baht!!!!!! Up to you.....

Seems like EVERYTHING happens in Pattaya.. I wonder why???????????????? No, I come here for the elephants and picking strawberries and the temples, I promise!!!! Pattaya. Pattaya. Satan is waiting...................

really??????????????????? u gotta dream better

This is THAILAND!!!! Land of Smog. Land of Smoke. 8 years, it's always bad. life ruining bad. take 10 years off your life bad. ruin your health bad. but there is always the bars and cheap noodle soup....the question is, Is it worth it???????????????????? maybe it's not the same week to week, but overall you are doomed for sure!!!!!

Pattaya. Be safe farangs. Keep your cool...............jai yen jai yen. This is NOT your country, you cannot do anything. I recommend not having a car, bike, anything. walk, bus, sabai sabai. No alcohol, eat healthy, exercise, relax.... I'm 300,000 km from Pattaya and still not far enough way.................. come on rocket ship!!!!!!!

https://thailandoutdoorshop.com/products/kuhlspyfirejacketmencarbon?variant=43121044586751 XL might work, gotta check https://thenorthface.lotsthailand.com/men/the-north-face-men-s-mountain-light-futurelighttm-triclimate-jacket-tnf-blacknf0a4n9tjk3.html trust me, there are possibilities. You can buy it here and wear it in Canada!!!!! If you will consider used, absolutely possible. Sure, might cost money.....................no worry. shoppee a little harder to tell if legit, but you gotta research things. It's all about layering, but that's for another thread.

Traveling is a privilege. it's not forced. Why do something that gets you soooo upset!!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I love the forms. Queuing is my life!!! It's worth it if I can make it to Pattaya!!!!!!!!!

this is why 1,000,000,000,000,000 people walk to America every day. Jungle, no food, whatever, they walk!!!! Thailand, not so much.... land of Pattaya and Phuket!!!! Why would you want to work here and make 30,000 baht when you can make that in one day in Falangland!!!!!

99% of Thais are in favor of wearing masks. It's Thai culture now. Not wearing a mask might get Thais worried about your attitude towards their country. I would NOT recommend Thailand now if you are anti-masks. 711, Big C, most places, masks... no masks, you get the evil eye!!!!!!! lol

Who really cares about high school? Teach the basics, move on.....A little history of Athens, Rome, America, couple wars, throw in a little Japan and China (not too much), sprinkle with a little Cuban Missile crisis and maybe even S. Africa for good measure. ANY kid with an above average IQ will research history in their 20's. or even 30's. perhaps 40's. Trust me, the information will come, eventually. I learned about Indonesia before the Tulsa race massacre. That was my path, I guess. I don't care what these idiots allow in school, it won't keep the smart kids from finding out the "truth" about whatever. Some slaves didn't want to be free, Stockholm syndrome. Many died on their trek out West. The Spanish killed so many indians I can't even count, all for the cross. Americans get blamed for killing Indians likely over gold or land or both or power or whatever.....I even remember reading once America conquered Mexico and decided not to really spend the time colonizing it. some Manifest destiny thing.... anyhow, don't worry about the kids......

looks like a great place to go camping. bring the whole family

don't let anyone leave until every table has been thoroughly searched!!!! water in their glass, 1000 baht fine. pork not eaten, 10,000 baht fine per slice. sauce left on a plate, 500 baht fine. 10 cameras per table, police outside if they can't pay their fine. And people wonder why 1000000000 restaurants close in Thailand every minute. Quick fix, don't go there.

US could default on its debt............................. has been in the news every year since 10,000 BC (yes, America is much older than you think). In other news, China's economy will crumble..................since 100,000 BC Stock market will crash to zero........................1 billion BC Housing prices to zero............................5 billion BC doom sells papers.......... Imagine an article, "America is the strongest country." Who would want to read that???? well, I would; however, everybody knows that already. boring.

The supplier has billions of whatever currency they are dealing with. They probably own both the politicians and the airports. That's the easy part. It only takes a few corrupt people to get drugs on a plane. I'm sure every second of every second (lol) there is someone taking money to allow drugs to pass. Sure, it's harder in some countries, but we are talking about Uzbek(ikstan) or however you spell it. Now I must get on a plane to Uzbek and infiltrate their organization!!!!! I hope they understand English.

If they do it, they get paid usually shops make the most on labor I'd never sell you this snake oil if I thought it was bad for you!!!!!! just give me your money!!!!! Thailand, land of no warranties and negligence...up to you

Haven't you watched a MOVIE?????? 1. Family held hostage, gunpoint, 10 kids 2. must smuggle 3. If successful, everyone freed and you get money for life 4. if caught, don't snitch people forget how poor people are. people say, "how dumb? why not just pay the 800,0000 baht and retire in Thailand!!!" this is white privilege. for billions, they have only one path. pawns fodder
