Does anyone feel their life in Thailand has marginally improved by the Thai Visa rebranding?

Has for me, and others can sense it. 

Matterafact, the CP hot dog lady at Makro winked at me yesterday. 

She just knew, and couldn't resist.  

I grinned back and flashed my badge, "Asean Now, Yeah Baby!", and her knees buckled.

Happens all the time now. 

Behave...

I love it, I needed more confusion in my life.

Weird name

Over in the Reddit Thailand forum, TV/AseanNow is known for being home of the "grumpy grandpas". Though I much prefer this to the snarky BS over there. Almost everything they say is trash talk. I'd get my Gmail inbox with notifications full of it. What's the point? Perhaps if you're a masochist.

 

We do our fare share here, but there they nitpick everything. They just gotta get you on something to rack up those Internet Tough Guy points or whatever. Not to mention they've got ladies around over there, so whenever a cutesy name or profile pic comes along, you can bet they step it up. Instead of just going to a bar, and buying her a damn drink.

 

Social media toxicity. Kids these days.

No. 

 

I feel great nostalgia for the original name. 

 

A rose is a rose. 

 

Also, time does not stand still. 

 

I will never be able to recapture my youth, a time when I first enjoyed TV, under its real name. 

[moose7117]

Nope !

[pookondee]

If the name change has chased off some of the serial (Thai specific) wingers,

then im all for it.

I do notice one guy who used to moan daily about the government, PM,

brown paper bags, etc seems to have gone quiet.

Maybe he did finally leave.

At my age total confusion is like a breath of fresh air.

"Asian" & "Asean" have different meanings, please read it up.

you don't say; oh really; how interesting;
So glad to be enlightened about the different meanings of the abbreviation and the word Asuan.

My life has improved by about the same amount as when Datsun became Nissan.

[Rampant Rabbit]

The  only reason I  havent  stuffed  my own head in a  plastic  bag is Asean  Now, and its  so catchy and informative when someone wants to research anything Thai, I mean first thing Id  think of typing into google to search would be "asean now" makes  sense eh

The new name reminds me of what happens when you squat over a mirror

I found that event rather more exciting, and even funny.
As many on TV now ANO ("Upward " in Greek if my memory errs me not) will remember,
the Nissan Boss called the most expensive Marketing Consultant:
B: Need new name for my cars!
C.: When?
B: This weekend !
C.: ThatSoon ? 

[Joe Farang]

It looks more important in articles when they write "notes Asean Now" or "noted Asean Now"

[mahtin]

My life has never been the same since the day cheetah george posted the Pattaya Song video.

Nothing Compares.

No, pointless.

Name change: of no consequence.

 

New logo: prefer it to the (previously more prominent) durian.

 

Unfortunately the search function is still pretty useless (at least for me).

[Gandtee]

I miss the replies to comments coming into my inbox like they did with Thaivisa.

 

[CharlieH]

Many off topic and responses removed.

 

PLEASE stay on the topic.

I didn't drive a car then, nor do I drive a car now.

Try google - enter the search terms you wish, and add Thai Visa or Asean at the end

How would my life be "improved" by participating in a "forum" which bans "bad language" and any semblance of truth related to Thailand? No purpose is served by ANY kind of censorship. Real people swear and use profanity. Mormon missionaries usually don't. Which category do YOU fall into??

Yes, I've seen your posts and couldn't agree more.

[KKr]

let me suggest to those that should be interested in this topic, to post a properly structured survey what may give some leads why traffic and ad revenue are moving …

more chances of getting an unbiased overview that way.

Let me suggest more pictures, with suggestive euphemisms in the captions.
