I'd like to mark his birthday with a ceremonial visit to the bathroom, and take a dump in Thaksin's honor.

nothing would be more appropriate... but the thought of him gives me constipation....

LMFAO

The scooby doo books can usually be found at the book week fair at sirikit its set ussually biannually, the place is ussually in ground level left of the stairs going up. I bought atleast 20 of them from there last time they had a fair.

edit: sirikit=queen sirikit national convention center (available through MRT)

As the others have said, I think it's about choosing your words carefully.

Looking at a couple of Thai sites via Google, it was explained as meaning you should think about every word you say, not say every word you think or you might get a punch in the mouth!

Maybe something like:

To speak nicely is a virtue. Talk too much and you may get a bloody mouth.

I think this one is the closest

The crooks on Capital Hill discuss a crook - is there something wrong with this picture?

How many times have we seen the American Congress hold hearings on other countries with witnesses telling tearful, often heart-wrenching stories, only for these to be discovered later to be a pack of lies! Too many interested parties, including some representatives, use these purely for selfish PR purposes.

<deleted>???? Why are US taxpayers (Fortunately I am not one) having to pay for this circus discussing a man and a country far away, neither of which constitute a pressing matter for the US government or people? Obviously these people have far too much time on their hands (and access to too much of the taxpayers' money). Or perhaps I overslept and did not reaise that all the domestic problems in the US have now been solved?

Do u realize how much trade thailand is doing with the US? The US is arguably the most powerful nation presently, and so therefore its influence is expansive, it is also the same vise versa if something were to happen in thailand, it could affect US citizen safety, trade safety, and US economics-as little as that mayb it still has an affect.

Many thanks to Mr. Shinawatra.

You got that one wrong!

It should say: Many thanks to the traitors who staged an illegal coup against a legal government

Sorry to say you've got it both wrong. It should be no thanks to the mad men who placed and exploded a bomb killing one, injuring ten others. For who did it, many suspects have been mentioned in others topics, but no evidence yet. This brings us to "insufficient data" (IMHO).

agreed

There is however, one thing we can conclude...that the ppl that did this had no intention of saving Thailand from a political crisis.

FREE SPEECH FEARS WAS THE POST

Thailand is getting as bad as the worst communist state.

Thousands of websites have no access

no freedom of speech,regarding the elitists

open racism to the majority of the country

Thaivisa is brilliant though for open speech

U have a misconception of communism, communism isn't a political stand point but it is more of an economical/social view. It is the view that one day naturally the human race would face each other, work together, and share everything without the concept of classes. But the original idea by Karl Marx had atleast 2 more steps between current humans and communism, and that is the reason most communism states fail, it is because they skipped the steps and they force communism down the throats of people in their country, which is not true communism. Therefore Thailand is not as bad as a communist state because there has never been a true communist state in a large scale, large scale meaning anything bigger than a village or a small town.

Anyone notice the arrows for going to the next page is kind of weird? At first i thought it was a normal line and not an arrow?

The new Thaivisa design looks nice but i have been having some problems with it.

The thaivisa tool bar usually has a running news feed, but now its not working, there the news ussually is it now says "No valid RSS feeds have been configured"

And is the "Fast Reply" Button is now gone?

anyone has the same problem?

EDIT: nvm found the fast reply

Does anyone have problems with the new site design/layout?

if u read a lot you will eventually be fast with tones, what i do is ignore the tone and use the meaning of the sentence to figure out which tone the specific word is, but you need to be able to understand the meanign fo the sentence and most of the other words to figure it out

ทุกคนกล่าวคำปฏิญานตามข้าพเจ้าว่า Everyone take this oath to say

มีความซื่อสัตย์ have honesty

ตัวตนเอง with myself

NOT SURE ABOUT THE FIRST PART

I may be going out on a limb here but I would guess that at American International Schools they don't teach British English?

Not sure if this is true for all international schools in bangkok, but most international schools have both english and american teachers, most of them teach both and are fine with either, with the exception of a few though (one of my teacher is an Australian and he despises american english, he always says "ITS al-lu-mi-nium NOT Aluminum"

not sure what thai schools teach though.

สึก is the word for the disrobing of a Buddhist monk, but it is used for both voluntary and involuntary disrobing and doesn't have the negative connotation of disrobing (at least I don't think it does)

You're right, it doesn't have a negative connotation-therefore the word can be used for voluntary disrobing.

Not sure, but i think you would have better luck posting this in the motor section, general section, or technology section.

Agree with Yoot, the transliteration is correct but thais will ussually pronounce it a lot different than what you are used to hearing in english.

Khun (middle sound) is to address someone who you thing is worthy of respect, usually businessman, doctor, teacher, boss, etc.

อาจารย์ is professor/teacher, i think some of the doctors are called อาจารย์ because they are also teachers, e.g. training new doctors.

Khun Kap is used as the same way some one would call you "Mister" when trying to get their attention but do not know your name.

It is also true that most thai's use family labels such as grandma, sister/brother, aunt, uncle, etc-but this is not used in formal speech.

I minor suggestion that last part of the phrase is refering to smthn that already happen (Sia Laew)

whole sentence "by the time the government realizes what they have done, thailand is no longer the same"

its good to see some "work" being done, but im still wondering if i want him back here, might create more problems than it solves.

I've been watching it on tv, looks like the opposition did their hwk, although some of their evidences and accusations just makes them look uneducated while others make the govt look like an evil totalitarian.

What happened? I feel out of the loop a bit here

The flash drive incident is because of the consonants at the end of a syllable

if sh, ch, j=t

there is no w or r at the end so when drive is transliterated to thai the ์ is put to remove that sound or else the consonant w would change sounds

ชน as a verb is to hit/crash/bump/etc but as a noun it means people

มติ means an conclusion or an agreement

So matichon most likely means an agreement of the poeple (not sure)-you could take it to mean its the peoples agreed upon choice.
