  1. the fad is over indeed. No longer a fad, tattoos are a common form of self-expression that are no longer stigmatized when worn in moderation.
  2. i have access to neither
  3. Reading through this thread, it becomes abundantly clear that COVID killed the wrong people.
  4. back when alcohol was a shared hobby between myself and a rather large group of friends, we would just hop in a taxi and see where they took us, some of the best, albeit blurriest days ever
  5. it seems you struggle with the meaning of the word "or" Nor did I say anything about beer bars. here is what I did say before you gave me some nonsense about hotel bars and clubs for "discerning Asians": I don't know where you live but beer bars are not the sole option in Bangkok, in fact there seem to be less every day.
  6. what a stupid remark, sensible people don't drink at all. and what about those non-sensible folks that don't drink at home, but enjoy the social aspect of going out for a cocktail or having a beer while people watching? even at the height of my drinking, I rarely opened a drink if I was home alone. the alcohol was never the point of the exercise.
  7. imagine trying to score points online by virtue signaling that you don't drink.
  8. this is becoming too common. places advertise drink prices but neglect to mention lady drinks cost double or even triple and it applies to everything in the bar. there is no just buying a girl a drink anymore. go into a place order a couple 100 baht Heineken, and another for a woman, and get a bill for 1000 baht. places I used to stop in for a quick drink in Bangkok are now no go zones because the bills skyrocket so fast it is impossible not to blow through few thousand baht an hour and leave sober
  9. interesting how the story neglects to mention that it is an opioid
  10. there was a small community of British boiler room boys in the Philippines around 10 years ago addicted to Tramadol.
  11. interesting remark. really says everything about you I need to know. love to hear you rationalize that out.
  12. same thing here in the south in the late 90s they were awful and thai just said no after a while.
  13. This is bull<deleted>. it is not anti-semitism it is a response for people who have had enough of being retreated and disrespected. Thai could not give a <deleted> that these people are jews, but rather that they can be arrogant pricks. This is not the first time Thais have reacted to poor Israeli behavior -- on koh Phangan in the mid 90s to early 2000's Israelis were banned from many bungalow operations for simply being unbearable, they would come in large groups just out of military service and terrorize the place with their bad manners. That died out and there were fewer around for nearly a decade it seems things have come full circle.
  14. There are so many stories like this, I'd say 20 years ago now, a Korean man staying at Sukhumvit Suites soi 13 Bkk cut up his wife and kid, put them in a suitcase, and dumped them in Klong Saen Seap
  15. it really is brillant. decent satire is rare these days. thanks for sharing.
  16. damn, i have the same bag. Served me well for years.
  17. can't imagine why he wouldn't.
