  1. Oh wow, that reference to my alias is just so overwhelming as if it's never been mentioned before. I guess I'll just curl up in a fetal position and slump into heavy depression.
  2. Only if it is double-barreled. Let me guess, in your world there is no winner and everyone receives a 'Participation' trophy.
  3. Bring back the 'paddle power'........ A swat on the buttocks with a plank of wood tends to stop reoccurrences.
  4. Asking a public forum what the moral thing to do is........ hmmmmmmm
  5. When did Pattaya become part of Italy?
  6. Just read your reply after I posted mine......seems like an awesome idea!!!!
  7. I have had 3 Smart TVs and I have never used the so-called 'smart' functions on any of them. I have a mini-PC (around 6k THB) which I connect to both the Internet and TV. Too many sites available to watch all sports, TV series, and movies for free! Besides having the ability to stream TV I can connect to my printer as well as many other Bluetooth devices. Also it provides me a place to backup my phone, pictures, etc.... I would much rather have a PC than a dongle called 'firestick'.
  8. Move along folks, nothing to see in the video except for your typical healthy and fit Brit.
  9. With a tin full of cookies........or to be corrected, 'biscuits'.
  10. You are absolutely correct! (Are your feelers better now?)
  11. I frequent a couple of the larger morning & evening markets here but they are not like Chatuchak and have everything to offer.
  12. For sure.... my ego needs brushed at least once a day, where were you yesterday?
  13. ......and beer has alcohol, so what's your point? Perhaps you're a 'whine' drinker.
  14. Sure..... I laugh at the post(s) where the 'Cheap Charlies' complain about having to pay 200-300 THB for a good burger and fries.
  15. While I cannot boast using Lazada as many times I have used them quite a bit over the past several years. I always pre-pay using my True Wallet account and haven't had a single issue.......yet (knock on wood). Probably the two most expensive things I've bought have been an electric toothbrush and mini PC (approx 6k-8k THB each). Just this week I bought a Hitachi stick vacuum (5k THB)......arrived as promised, no issue!
  16. Yeah, as if there's nothing worse posted on this forum. NOTE: I was just curious how many honest folks there are out there as well as how many low-lifes.
  17. Actually it's called, 'stimulating the brain', you should try it sometime.
  18. I do have a hobby, many of them. Actually I am about to go partake in one of them right now and go outside to smoke me a big bong full of kind bud!
  19. I went to my local supermarket chain and seeing they still had some good looking Muscat grapes available I decided to pick up a bag even though there was a hefty price of 299/kg. I took the bag to the weighing counter and laid them on the conveyor while the attendant gave me a cheerful smile. The grapes were weighed, I picked up the bag, and while walking back to my cart I glanced at the sticker to see the final price of the bag I chose. What?? Just a mere 59 THB !!!!!! That had to be a mistake so I took the bag back to that same attendant and pointed at the price on the sticker. The attendant immediately took the bag, weighed it again, attached a new sticker over the old one, and thanked me several times as I took my newly priced bag and went walking to my cart. Looking at the sticker, 288 THB, much closer to the expected price. Now I ask, what would you have done? Would you try to check out with the wrong priced produce hoping that the attendant at the door checking receipts didn't notice it? Or would you do as I did, get the price corrected? Now for a little humor..... I gave some thought as to why the attendant priced my grapes incorrectly. This is my conclusion and a good example that concentration is not always being used at work. That 58 THB label had the price per kg and description for guava. What do Thais call guava fruit? Farang. I'm definitely a farang having blonde hair and blue eyes. The attendant saw me walking to the weigh station and looked at me directly in the eyes as I laid my bag of grapes down. Not thinking the product code for guava was entered!
