lanista Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Nice to see he dropped his relatives in the cooking pot. Now the cops can arrest them for harbouring a suspected murderer and likely find all sorts of contraband in their homes. Nice one Sanchy!! Thai's squeel like piglets when they get busted.

Sir Dude Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Well, if you want to find trouble then the local snooker club is probably the place to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing red is a very common phrase to mean in a state of extreme anger or seeing a red mist. As the main balls used in snooker are red the headline is a pun.

Now you have really confused him I think when he says he is a non native he means "speaker" so thats a reasonable defence in this case As for it being Aussie slang out of the question, far to clever for that lot 5555555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The childhood western chant of "Stick and Stones etc..." is not a very much quoted or lived by here. Much more the complete opposite. "Any excuse is better than none" seems more popular with Thais seeking justification for mindless violence. Talk about thin skins. From the bottom to the very top of in many parts of Thai society. Perversely, and inexplicably, it seems to be actually admired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
