Oddly enough, I don't really find him that appealing...

He's the natural successor Benny Hill and twice as funny.

So I take it the girls chasing Prawit in the finale are really after all those Rolex, not his body.

 

[tifino]

 and the pity of it all; is that even the cheapest of timepieces is more useful/productive job than him...

 - by at least showing the correct time (twice a day)

[neeray]

The only way that I could see Big Pom receiving a Person of the Year status is if it was decided by the same criteria as Time Magazine uses. 

Time selects based on volume of news events, not on quality of character. 

[tifino]

 Noteriety beats Popularity, any day!

 

 

post edit...

 

this how Promotions work,

and allows one to manage promotion(s) , up to his level of incompetence

So an appropriate phrase, especially in this case could be: "never mind the quality, feel the width"

But this would mean that Prawit was actually stopped, stationery and inactive . . . surely you can't be serious.

From what I remember when he went to Ubon and had his 'medical emergency', Prawit was anything but inactive - he must have been rushing to find the nearest available 'facility':

You can't beat our Ernie . . . and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west. Porky's not that funny . . . it was the only time I wet myself whilst watching Top of the Pops.

[connda]

Big Pom.  Yep!  I can see it.

[klauskunkel]

 

Get a room you two!

[heybuz]

 

[anchadian]

Now he's in the clear.

 

The verdict - 'insufficient grounds'

Broad nepotism has it's moments....

[Eligius]

And right on cue - Prawit is found innocent of all charges!

I admit it it, I admire him and when his time comes I would like a piece of the rope as a keepsake.

Is that a satire - piece?

I'm sure he'll take it as an accolade, similar to Kim Jong Un when he won the the Sexiest Man Alive award a few years ago...

A worthy honour for one of the nation's leading lean, mean, steely eyed dealers of death.

They chased him all the way to the service centre...

Like a fairytale the, "Toad that became the Person of the Year". So is it butt kissing or a stab at humor because it is funny as hell!

Wow, that takes brown-nosing to a whole new level.

 

Odd, Khaosod is usually more sensible.

 

 

 

 

I think you've missed the point. ????  Too subtle for you perhaps. ????

 

 

[balo]

He is pointing at you to shut up, he never asked for that person of the year award. Unless you have a Rolex  .

That's him challenging any female who insults him to a fist fight.

The others might be paying attention but he is definately not on watch.

Perhaps. Or perhaps it's wishful thinking on your part. Who's to say?

Just beggars belief that this same man has to beg Thaksin for the army chief position. He must be one hack of a general who won many battles with his brilliant military strategies to rose from a nobody general to the most powerful man. 

 

Prem with his telescopic vision and Thaksin who more than anything else wanted the old addicted-to-catamites to love him. Why is anyone's guess, perhaps Thaksin had a secret life.

Just make him wear the POTY as a hat.

 

Oh, sorry, spelling...

And the Poser of the Year award for 2018 goes to . . . . . . . . shhhh! Come on HalfLight, don't stop there . . . the entire T-V universe is in suspenders.

 

Why? A lot of cross-dressers are there? Come to think of it, there might be a few.
