  1. no, some of them are mentholated.
  2. I am far more concerned with the excess packaging that comes from Lazada and Shopee. The other day I received an unlimited internet sim that came wrapped in bubble wrap in a cardboard box. Everything these days, breakable or not, comes in bubble wrap and a cardboard box. The problem is horrific on islands like phangan and Samui, where populations are growing and the superfluous garbage is piling up
  3. They still ask me, but that is because I have been refusing bags at my 7-11 steadfastly for years
  4. i hear ya, but vapes are cool right?
  5. <deleted>. the ban lasted a few months to a year, not longer
  6. Why are you rehashing topics that were discussed ad nauseam yesterday? Also, yesterday it stated they were arrested. It seems today they weren't
  7. this cracks me up, doing bumps on the street. seriously WTF.
  8. so help us do that by providing a source. you are certain, show us why.
  9. It should spark outrage. the anti-vape laws and campaigns are so ridiculous that the countries' leaders can't even be bothered to pretend that they aren't
  10. aaand these are the people making decisions. It's the Government or professional wrestling, you make the call
  11. Your partisan jargon bores me. The world is not black and white nor left or right, and it is myopic and reductive to see it that way. left and right is a divisive crock of <deleted> -- a distinction of milimetres on a much broader political spectrum.
  12. wow. even i take pause at the thought of the recumbent, probably because I'm not familiar with riding one, but they seem very low! I am in bagkrachao several time per week, but i only return via klong toei. i head out there on Rama 3/Ratuburana. it is a good 40km loop, and easy to double it once you are on the "island."
  13. some say its a cess pit of miserable geriatrics discussing us politics
  14. hoo boy that isn't gonna help.
  15. logic or personal experience doesn't play here. "Cycling in thailand is stupid," is the refrain and folks just sing it. i reckon the majority of them are couch-bound and would not cycle anywhere, but still they contribute an opinion.
  16. which is the case on any road anywhere, in a car, on a motorcycle, or on foot. What is odd to me is the people who ride motorcycles or use motorcyclycle taxis daily that announce riding a bike in Thailand is suicide. it just doesn't compute -- I'm not saying they are the same, but they certainly are similar activities
  17. you are correct, but then no one is arguing that. what is your point? and why the about face? Perhaps you should decide what it is you are trying to say
  18. Perhaps, but Thais on the street smoking pot is quite rare, whereas in my travels, i see foreigners doing the same daily. That is not to say Thais don't smoke weed. I smell weed often as I ride my bike through Thai neighborhoods, but on a busy public street, it is always a foreigner holding the joint
  19. it is not about marijuana, it is about foreign misbehavior.
  20. indeed. oddly i can still venture out my front door and walk 500m to pay for sex or buy a bag of coke.
