[Kwasaki]

All the corrupt foreigners making immigration tighten up requirements of proof when applying for marriage extensions.

 

Funerals go on too long.

 

Thais who set up music speakers with the bass OTT.

 

The untrained motorbike riders.

Strange choices ☺️
Food is surely a matter of choice, though of course it matters where you live. 
Condo rooms I don’t get at all. Close to where I am, you can acquire a 40+ sq.m. condo with a sea view for 4,000 baht monthly. 

Furniture is up to you. 
Agree about 90 day reporting being annoying. 
Americans…

No.5. Being told to name 5. ????

[ikke1959]

Too loud music and noise always and everywhere

Too much bass that you can kilometers away

speeding and crazy car drivers

hypnotized motorcycle drivers

and the pretending they know everything if ask something, but they have no clue what they are talking about

[bkk6060]

Hate is a strong word.  A few things that are annoying.

But, this should be a great thread for those who hate their lives and just about everything and everyone in it.

[Dmaxdan]

I don't actually hate anything. However, I do dislike the following...

 

The appalling standard of driving on the roads.

 

How so few people are big enough to accept the blame for their mistakes.

 

Thai interpretations of western food. Pizza is a classic example.

 

Lao Khao, of any bootleg alcohol that is responsible for so many meaningless deaths every year.

 

Thai soap operas. 

 

[n00dle]

My inability to get a mortgage or own a standalone property outright

[Trippy]

Only have one:   Arrogant foreigners

[1FinickyOne]

1. not enough easy parking in CM

2. When business owners claim the parking spaces in front of their businesses...

3. complaining farang [who don't seem to understand that this is a different culture and what that actually means] 

4. dirty farang

5. unconscious drivers [though this can be anywhere and there are also unconscious walkers who just seem to drift away - I often wonder where they are and what it is like there... 

[Lacessit]

I don't hate anything about Thailand, just have dislikes instead.

 

1/ ASEAN posters with no manners, who seem to think it is their duty to provoke and annoy everyone else.

 

2/ Foreigners who bitch about Thailand. Why the hell are you here?

 

3/ The cumbersome visa system for retirees. After a couple of blameless years here, why not let us be?

 

4/ Expensive cheese.

 

5/ The Thai system of licensing drivers, when the instructors probably would not pass a road test in any Western country.

To bitch about Thailand! 

[alien365]

1. Those standing in the way of democracy.

2. The wealth disparity.

3. Excessive noise.

4. Lack of accountability. 

5. Lack of skills and knowledge. (tradesmen/ shop assistants)

Interesting some of the best pizza I have had has been here.  Not the chain shops, but some smaller independent places with stone/wood fire make great pizza I think.

1) Bad drivers\riders including farang

 

2) Barflies who want to play trumps

 

3) Loud talkers

I was not going to post on this thread but the author hit a nerve with me. Time to take a Xanax.

People flaming and trolling posters on TV.

Corruption at all levels.

Incompetent tradesmen

All government agencies that belief they know the rules/laws but clearly do not.

I recently bought a large block of cheddar cheese manufactured in the Netherlands called Grand Or. I purchased it at Makro. It is a 2.25 kilogram block and cost 1,293 Baht. I am really enjoying it.
