Making news for the sake of news? Sorry guys but while some of the stories IMHO are actually newsworthy this one seems to be a bit desperate. Respectfully, perhaps you might consider some of your readers are interested in more depth in the events reported. Don't get my wrong I don't appreciate the effort.. it's just a bit funny to me that this small incident was reported as an actual news story.

Probably for the same reason hot dog eating contests are not an Olympic sport. There also could be some unusual implications behind the scenes.

The headline is a bit leading .. did the fact he was with a ladyboy somehow lead him to wind up in the moat? Got in the moat after "encounter" with ladyboy. Hmmm..

Yea, I've posted way too much here. gonna stop.. you are right.

Thanks, absolutely .. but I think most of us should just stop responding to susanlea. She's obviously convinced she is some kind of authority on a lot of things she has no clue about. Let's not clutter AN with these unproductive arguments. Let her go her merry way. Lost cause and I feel sad for her. There is no convincing somebody so drunk on the MAGA koolaid. These MAGA folks are filled with a bunch of propaganda and outrageous nonsense.

You can sling labels if you like. But I'm neither "left" or "right". I'm just the guy who listens carefully and does some research when participating in one of the greatest rights I have as a US citizen. I've made my decision based on common sense logic. I'm not swayed by the hyperbolic ultra hyped conservative media scare tactics which, it appears, has you in it's grips.

He claims he has a big thingy too. He's got big stuff and says he has big hands and a big thingy. He says he's got the best people, and says he was the best president since Lincoln. Wow, he's convinced me... oh wait. NOT!

Yea, this is a VERY important fact to take into account. So, what does this fact tell us? Why has the media, especially recently, become so polarized and highly biased? Here lies the problem with modern democracy and political environment. There exists a relatively small very wealthy group of individuals attempting to pull the strings one way or the other to serve their agenda. This is something the OP obviously is not aware of and should be as media outlets like Fox News spew extreme propaganda AND IT IS NOT FOR THE BENEFIT OF IT'S AUDIENCE. In fact it is NOT IN THE INTEREST OF IT'S AUDIENCE. But their viewers can't or wont' see it. That all being said, it is still pretty easy to glean who is and who is not competent and qualified to hold the high offices in the USA. Trump and Vance are woefully under-qualified and frightening in their agenda. At least Kamala Harris has a long successful history as a public servant in jobs that are not for the faint of heart. Being a DA then Attorney General and then senator in one of the most important states in the nation speaks volumes about her abilities. Trump? He ran a casino into the ground and has been convicted of screwing around and being dishonest in his business dealings. The choice is pretty obvious without even turning on the computer, looking at your phone or watching TV.

It's really a shame but after reading posts like these and all the OP's I am really beginning to think there ought to be a mental health and IQ test given to qualify to vote in the USA. Thoroughly discouraging state. The age of the Ken and Karens is upon us. Folks who have thoroughly drank the Fox News Kool Aid and then have started making it with 2 packs and twice the sugar. Really sad.

And there we have it folks... that's it right there. I'm very sorry for you.

You did nothing of the kind. There are people in all kinds of professions that are just not very good at their jobs. I was asking you about "sucking up". Not the fact that there are some dumb lawyers out there. You understand there are also some very outstanding lawyers in the world also right? You don't get to be a DA of two county's, the state of CA and a Senator by being stupid. That is just pretty damn obvious to anyone with half a brain.

You didn't answer my question. Anyways this is pointless, you've made up your mind but it won't matter. Trump will lose. Kamala will win and all will be right in the world.

All I can say at this point is something I think you should seriously consider. People in glass houses should not throw stones. You understand what I'm getting at?

Oh, is that how you get to be a county District Attorney? Sucking up? How does that work exactly? Please do help us all understand. How does one "suck up to the right people" to get a high level job like that? Perhaps you could enlighten us. Write us an essay on how Kamala Harris "sucked up" to all to the right people to be able to have a successful career as a lawyer in public service for a couple decades. Please, do tell us with all your worldly knowledge how to "suck up" and become a DA of Two major Bay Area California jurisdictions and then the entire state. Please, we are all waiting four your extensive and insightful explanation. Please try to use complete sentences. It helps with communication using the English Language. LOL!!!

How does a dumb lawyer, get to be DA of Alamada County then San Francisco, then Attorney General of California and then Senator from California? Yes she must be really stupid to be able to do all that. Please, respectfully you are only exposing your ignorance.

She'll win. Trump in no way can compare to her accomplishments in public service. She has climbed the ladder of public service in California like a rock star. She was Attorney General of California under Jerry Brown and then went on to be senator after Barbara Boxer. She was a DA for Alamada county and then San Francisco. Those are both very difficult jobs Trump could never do. He is not a lawyer. He's a failed businessman. The guy ran a casino into the ground. You have to be a real nimbus to do something like that. She is an extremely intelligent woman. Trump can't hold a candle to her track record, intelligence, experience and education. She's my home girl and she's gonna win like a rock star. Get over it.

I really like the part where he carefully removes the upper scalp of Ray Liotta cuts out, frys and makes him eat his own brains. That part of the film was pretty damn crazy. I really related to that because at times in my old age it feels like someone took part of my brain out, fryed it with some onions and wine and fed to to me. The brains that are left are the remains of the day.

LOL, this has got to be one of the weirdest posts I've ever seen. Did someone dare the OP to pack as many unrelated Dylan quotes and pictures from the 60's and growing old in one post as possible? ( along with a completely unrelated flow chart ) ... If not there is a Thai guy in Pattaya that drives around a cart with about a thousand signs and pictures on it.. you guys should team up to amuse the general population and continue to prove that reality is stranger than fiction. BTW, you forgot to mention that man didn't land on the moon, the earth is flat and climate change is a conspiracy by the Illuminati to alter our precious bodily fluids.

I have a feeling we might see some marching in the streets. Anyone? Will have to start avoiding some of the down town areas again. TIT .. happens every few years or so.

Drop some X before a haircut appointment, they had an interesting idea, they might have gotten some business from Rave goers. But alas, if you are tourist in Thailand you can't just open up a lemonade stand and expect to do business without some consequences.

Ah, just delete this post please. Yes you are confused. Perhaps to a little more research than browsing random Facebook posts when trying to make your grand conclusions.

What is the world coming to when you can't take a stroll down Soi 6 without getting a beat down? What happened to the smell of fresh espresso and croissants. Where has it gone, the sweet sound of jovial conversation and pleasant music? The smiles and lite conversation of the locals. In all seriousness though,there are way to many numbskull foreigners jetting into Thailand and acting like complete ass hats. Sorry he got hurt but in a way I think he may have deserved a beat down for being an entitled drunkard foreigner trying to pound his ego filled chest in probably the most stanky armpit of a s#!t hole whore house strip of street in the world. If anyone is surprised this happened than they need a major reality check.

No, just a about 45% of the American people around 8 years back. I think the majority of the rest of the world probably think the intelligence of the average American has slowly crept downward since the Nixon administration.

Great for a family vacation, the cultural attractions and events are so numerous I'm surprised this has not happened years ago LOL!! There is a water park AND Ripleys believe it or not... that ought to do it!
