8 billion people on Earth, some will be evil. Unfortunately, we all have to live within a few hundred km of some of them. Deep rooted problems in society.....................not to be fixed anytime soon. not in our lifetimes. these things will never stop, all we can do is try to set a good example and hopefully some kids will notice.

I am little confused. So, let me make some bad assumptions (yea, I know what that word means...lol). You graduated from a Thai college and you didn't know any students who were on the path to becoming a teacher? Raised entirely in Thailand. Great, but why ask a falang? I would email any school (in Thai, of course) ..... I'm puzzled how you think we might know more? Since you have UK passport, then sure get the 35,000 baht monthly salary instead of like 16,000 and whatever.....BUT I think you will miss out on the long-term path to MUCH more security and stability at work. Less pay initially, but then all the perks...................I think you have to work five years and then it's almost impossible to get fired (check with someone else). Hiding the fact that you are Thai? I'm confused. If fluent, that's impossible. If you went to a Thai school, impossible (they will see the transcripts). If you lie to Thai teachers............well, then you are doomed. Again, go to a school and talk to them. You get the WP AFTER you have the job, usually after a month or so, etc....not before. 2000 baht if I remember correctly, or 1900 if that really matters. i forget. contract, get the NonB visa (go to Laos), come back....get the WP....... at the end of your contract you can re-new and not leave the country. I'm still confused..............lol

5:30, just got home and the BASS can be heard from a zillion kms away!!!!! I wear ear plugs when I sleep, and I'll still get woken up around 12 or 1 some nights. That's usually if I go to bed early, so it's not like I'm tired the next day. Can fall back asleep very fast. I'll NEVER forget the DAY when Thailand went quiet. April of 2020. Covid National Lockdown. I couldn't believe how quiet it got. and it stayed that way for like over a year!!!!!! The ONLY hope is rain........................... I think loud music helps people study Mathematics, contemplate philosophy, write poetry, meditate, or simply talk to a friend. or NOT!!!!! lol I really couldn't care less, since rent is sooooooooooooooo cheap I'll take this as a slight negative; especially, since I don't own and I'm not stuck.............OMG, that would be a nightmare!!!! lol

PATTAYA beach No2 in the World ! Really ?
BananaStrong replied to Social Media's topic in Pattaya News
I am a sheep. I must believe everything. Feed me knowledge. I am dumb. Take my money. Tell me where to go. I cannot think for myself. I am incapable of thought. Pattaya is Number 2, OK. I will await further instructions. -
First time in Thailand???? This is how it's done!!!! Embrace the loud culture, or find the nearest airport. This will NEVER change......................embrace or suffer. lol

19 baht haircut 29 baht massage. coins only, no greater than a satang. It's either that or nothing................... or give them a BETTER tip like this , "Look both ways when crossing the street!" That advice is worth 400000 baht.

Buying Gold.
BananaStrong replied to NoshowJones's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I tried to help all of you................telling you about massive DEMAND. Should have bought on this post, sell now... now you are rich like me. my posts are worth their weight in gold IF every letter weighed as much as a black hole. -
Same way you reacted....by doing NOTHING. Not my problem, why get involved? He's MAD in LOS........stay away, that means you picked the WRONG city!!!! Probably CM, I've seen many mad CM falangs in my day. But yea, if the bank was open, I would have tossed that tosser to the moon and yelled, "Don't hurt the ATM, you are making all falangs look bad!!!!" And they call ALL of us dirty for a reason........ If we created a post for every crazy falang on this site, TVF would be larger than the Universe. If we added pictures or videos.... OMG...... lol

Why is the air quality so poor Jan 2nd 2023?
BananaStrong replied to Elkski's topic in General Topics
Exposure to high levels of air pollution can cause a variety of adverse health outcomes. It increases the risk of respiratory infections, heart disease and lung cancer. Both short and long term exposure to air pollutants have been associated with health impacts. More severe impacts affect people who are already ill. WE all know this, and yet we stay......................... WILLINGLY. Sad, really. Banana, listen to yourself!!!!! Why subject yourself to this???? Well, 20 baht noodle soup let's me keep more money for Pattaya. Oh yea!!!! Oh yea!! lol -
Who goes to cinemas anymore? I'm not a teenager, I don't need shopping malls. I'm not over 60, I don't need "good" hospitals. I need some peace and quiet, good people, no traffic, clean air, normal prices and real smiles. That's NOT Chiang Mai anymore, no way......... When you need 1000000 pages to defend a place, guess what, that place is in the past and it's time to find a new best place. sorry, can't reveal my location.

Every falang should really sign a disclaimer before entering... I acknowledge...... nah, let's stick with baby words. Thailand is dangerous. I might die. I might get hurt. Many bad things can happen and I know. Not same same like back home. I understand. sign your name, then off to some "resort". I'm actually I'm amazed I'm still alive after almost 9 years.

'Romeo and Juliet' child actors sue over 1968 nude scene
BananaStrong replied to ozimoron's topic in Entertainment
YES!!!! Get that money, and arrest everyone. I'm suing the hospital where I was born, indecent exposure, called me a "boy" and I clearly identify as a "buffalo" and I was nude around other adults. trauma. suing for 20000000000 zillion . Reminds me of Spider-man. Really, how? One bite, all these superpowers and you get everything. The QUICK fix; no work, just luck. They should also try to arrest everyone who saw the movie, shared the movie, sold the movie, etc..... kiddy porn!!!!!! OK, back to stealing Bitcoins from North Korea...late!!! -
4.3 million views......yea, everyone knows. seems like just another day in Thailand, where people with absolutely no common sense, or hope, try riding a motorbike for the first time, fall in love with a ladyboy, and wear gold chains all night as if they are a superstar. The next morning, they wake up with pain everywhere. lol. If wondering, I'm a 95 year old lady so try not to think this is me. lol. Today I was getting some food at my local restaurant and the lady poured about 10000 liters of horrible oil in the pan.....I thought, "Well, if it's only 50 baht will my health understand?" lol. I am 99% sure things will go from bad to worse for the next few months..............................all those crazies stuck inside during COVID now allowed to be around humans again.........yea, it won't end well. lol

ED Visa Holders Not Attending Classes
BananaStrong replied to Banana7's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
done an ED before. It depends. worked out to like 80 baht an hour, which is amazing. 90% of the teachers are good enough (Of course I can't mention the place, well, unless I said 100%). I had one that was absolutely amazing, one ....................., ok, and one who I liked but many others got frustrated. A zillion years ago, I remember one class was like 15 and ended with 5. back before any checks. Then another went from like 6 to 3, with one person never talking, lol. and another was at 3, but I flew back home and didn't finish it. high quality? yes, you can find that. but there's still that percentage you don't. you will have to get used to the falangs who come in super hungover, complain a lot, act Thai, horrible at speaking, and the ones who drank the Kool-Aid. if you are on an ED visa, especially now, you have to always hold you tongue. Which is fine, but there were some real clowns who complained for weeks and then were never seen again. -

May every day be a drunk fest with loads of women showering you with love. A day without booze is a day I hope never finds any farang in Thailand!!!! -

Inflation going to 10,000 percent.........part of the plan. The cure is in Pattaya!!!!!! Come all sexpats, backpackers, and crazy tattoo falangs who wish to lay in the Devil's Den. lol. worst case, you feel absolutely horrible for a few days......that's where we are at now. That is worth it for a frolic into Satan's arms!!!!!!

Being asked to use demo lessons.
BananaStrong replied to Deserted's topic in Teaching in Thailand Forum
Google meet might work. My only demo lasted 5 minutes……they only want to hear you speak for one second and judge your appearance. I knew that, so cut my demo short. Lol. Of course I got the job.
