  1. Yeah actually in retrospect that was not a fair statement as I have never even been there. But clearly if child-beating still takes place, it's a problem. But then again, does child-beating take place in Bangkok too? I don't know. But not fair of me to judge an entire place I've never even been to.
  2. imagine how bad things must be and how much they complain in their home countries
  3. Because maybe your psychological health isn't the best? So you get a laugh seeing other people in bad situations?
  4. I don't know, but I did notice a guy driving a fancy convertible sports car through a red light district and loads of women were screaming. I guess the whiff of wealth excites them, so it could be that if you dress in a 3 piece suit you might get more attention. But it's almost comical because since they're all hookers, anyone can get with any of them. Unless they "put out" more if they think you're filthy rich?
  5. With maybe some few exceptions, the more discrepancy in age and looks, the more transactional a relationship is. There are plenty of "normal" looking farang-thai couples out there, where the age difference isn't huge and the woman is not 1000 times better looking than the man.
  6. There's no baseball in Thailand. Maybe in Japan it might look cool. But never ever backwards or sideways.
  7. If you can't wear a bandana when you're playing tennis, then what kind of world are we living in? Bandanas actually protect sweat from rolling down into your eyes and face. And so what if it's a flag? Jesus. Fashion police is scary.
  8. Some of the slickest criminals on Wall Street have 5000 dollar suits. Clothing can mask the real person, so giving it too much importance is a bit silly.
  9. Fresh-squeezed juice everywhere
  10. I'm not sure drugs or druglords are the root cause of the problem. Maybe bad parenting was the root cause and drugs and violence is the end result.
  11. Exactly. Pretty soon the covid vaccine will be blamed for every illness on the planet. So no one needs to take personal blame for lifestyle choices. Just blame Pfizer and Fauci for all your health problems. It's difficult to even pinpoint what causes cancer as there are probably numerous causes.
  12. If it makes you feel better, you're not the only one who thinks it's BS. But no one is going to stop posting BS any time soon. BS is everywhere. We are living in The Age of Fake News Deception. Hard to know fact from fiction.
  13. Actually, young people might think you're not cool if you don't have tattoos in this day and age. Also, shoes were an office apparel. If you're not working, why do you need to wear shoes in a hot climate? If you don't want to look broke, maybe invest in a good pair of high quality leather sandals instead of the cheapest plastic flip flops.
  14. Yes, but it's better than what he describes in the OP: Coming home to an empty house, being alone on weekends. It's way easier to socialize in pattaya. for a coupla beers, someone will keep you company.
  15. Does IKEA ship everywhere in Thailand?
  16. not the ideal retirement lifestyle for me personally.
  17. if it's false hope, then why do so many foreigners stay in pattaya for so long?
  18. You're exaggerating. It's only 2 per cent of foreigners that behave badly. There are a lot of foreigners living here and millions of tourists coming here.
  19. Yeah, I was dressed badly once and took a jaunt to the supermarket. The cashier gave me a strange look. So then I realized I need to be more careful how I dress. That piece of clothing went straight to the garbage.
  20. Not everyone dresses well back home either. But yes, good point.
  21. But you don't need to stare at the men .... unless you're in bars all the time. Keep your eyes on the prize ... stare at the thai girls.
  22. why not use the same driver ? make an arrangement.
  23. True, Canada military is crap. But isn't Canada too difficult to invade because of its vast geography? Also, Canada has allies. Maybe they wouldn't fight, but would provide weaponry. It would be too much of a long drawn out war that would cost too much money for the US. 10 Countries that might provide aid according to this dude. He is actually implying they would send troops: Denmark, Netherlands, Germany, France, Australia, UK, Norway, South Korea, Spain, Sweden.
