    I 'll stop with  pizzacompany , i'm tired of this bad service...that service line that you can call hang up on me twice, the 3rd one helped me and promised that the manager would call, which she did one time.

     

    Last week i walked into KFC, ordered 2 zingerburgers....they had stress because i'm farang but finally one came to tell me in english that i had to wait 20 minutes for that..hahaha...so i left. 

     

    I am surprised you can survive here. Your attitude is <deleted> poor, and your angst is beyond belief.  You would be happier being back where ever you came from..

  2. Once again the Thai news is wrong. The women caught on the 21st of October have not even been to trial. 2 Thai men caught in February were sentenced to 16 years in jail on Oct 17th. Shoddy reporting indeed.

     

    Two Thai men were sentenced to heavy 16-year jail terms in Indonesia on Wednesday after swallowing a kilogram of methamphetamine in a foiled drug smuggling bid.

     

    A district court in Bali handed down the sentence, which was less than the 18-year terms that prosecutors demanded for Prakob Seetasang, 30, and Adison Phonlamat, 20.

    The pair were arrested on the Indonesian holiday island earlier this year after arriving on a flight from Bangkok.

    They declined to launch an appeal against their sentence after they were found guilty Wednesday.

    “After discussions, we as the representatives of the defendants have decided to accept the verdict,” lawyer Aji Sibalan told a panel of judges.

    The Thai nationals would also have to pay a fine of IDR2 billion (US$142,000) each or spend an extra year in jail, said presiding judge Heriyanti.

    Did you go to Singapore and work for 2 days and return?  Good luck it looks like you must be living on a trust fund or something as it seems you dont work..

    Why a flight, one can exit Thailand by train and its possible  to get an advanced train ticket 60days before your travel. Internet booking possible.

    Because by air is safer. He can pay the overstay and leave easily. Any other way is fraught with complications.  

     

    I dont have any sympathy for him. I am also surprised his family cant come up with just 800 pounds. Genuinely surprised at this..

  5. Moved here 31 years ago to escape all the rules and regulation of the USA. Never visited Singapore as it has too many rules and regulations. Slowly but surely this has all changed. Now we have as many or more stupid rules and laws here. All since the Army took over. The Thai citizens are waking up to this as well. Something brown and stinky is going to hit the wall in the near future. Since time began the Thai's have had a healthy disregard for petty rules, well they are not even petty rules anymore. Watch out Army boys, its going to happen..

    I remember when I went back to California for a visit a few years ago, ladyboys began making public appearance, but sparingly and with eyes on high alert.

    Legal in San Francisco. Illegal here.

    Caveat emptor: Sometime ago I posted a thread here concerning my thai bf, focusing on the relationship between two persons (leaving out the "gay" part) and was most pleased that 1) it wasn't moved to the "Gay People" subforum and 2) many comments were positive (read compassionate). However, not surprisingly, still a number warned that I was threading on hostile terrain - "you've got nerve, this being a 'straight' forum" and what not...Let's see if this thread, focusing on how societies' (Thai vs US in this instance) views regarding gay marriage differ, fares any better...

    This seems to be the real reason you posted this thread. Feel better now?

    I don't see how it could be enjoyable to have to process 85 consecutive letters without a single space, and then repeat the process every two lines for like 300 pages.

    On top of which, written Thai is also dyslexic. The vowels and consonants are not pronounced in the sequence in which they are written. Like so many things here, it makes no sense. Once you learn to read Thai you begin to understand why their thought process is so f***ed up.

    xenophobia is alive and well. Lets look at a bit or English. Knight, how do you pronounce that word? Wrong, how about that one.  Lets look at a sentence or two. The drummer painted a bass on his bass drum.  The oarsmen had a row about how to row the boat.  You learn a language from birth and it becomes natural.  

     

    Seems some would rather just bitch and complain and see their "writing" in print. Damn dudes take a chill pill.  

  8. First it 33 baht to deliver it. You are complaining?   Secondly find the shops that Pratom and Mattayom students go to to buy school supplies they will have it. Dont know where in Pattaya, but they will have several of these shops
