There is a Thai guy who works out in the same gym who sometimes wears a t-short that says "Eat More Pussy". I was visiting a temple and saw a praying, young, well-endowed Thai woman with a t-shirt that said, "Stop Staring at My Tits". I thought that possibly inappropriate for a temple, but what do I know? just yesterday on my way to city during rush hour....thai teen dude..shirt saying <deleted> Daddy.. Vietnam teen gal......maybe 13ish,,,,,black shirt....saying On Your Knees B*tch...... seems as long as its in english its cool to them.......or they are just idiots......both answers work.. also seen the motorcycle with Pornhub branding.......guess that one belongs to the Monk...

Xonax Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 (edited) The below shirt is advertised at around THB 90,000. I would ask to be paid the same amount a month to wear it. Edited September 2, 2023 by Xonax 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much do they pay you guys to walk around Thailand like Human Billboards? Any day of the week, just walk along the road, and you will see guys advertising almost anything and everything under the sun. Why do YOU guys do this? How much are they paying you? I, for one, wouldn’t be CAUGHT DEAD with advertising on me, or on my clothing, or on my shoes. Well, sometimes I am forced to have a Nike logo on my athletic shoes. But I never wore brands on my Bostonians. How much are these companies paying you??? Do you just do what everyone ELSE does? Can’t you even think for yourselves, and tell these companies that your body and your personal space is…YOURS! Here is what I mean. This guy here seems to be advertising the VW Bus. But does he get paid for doing so?: I hope you guys can please add a few examples to prove my point. It seems that EVERYBODY and his BROTHER are walking around Thailand advertising, for free, almost any kind of product or service, and publicizing all sorts of logos and brands, and they do it for FREE, with no thought or caring… Like ZOMBIES! Like the WALKING DEAD! It’s like their brains have come to a complete halt. They just wear whatever they are told to wear. Where do they even FIND this apparel, ANYWAY??? So please help me out. Help prove my point here. Upload some examples here. Thank you. I appreciate it. Gamma Ooooooooops! Dont get carried away. The entire world need not follow your preferences!

This Guy Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 I wear plain coloured Tees and Plain shorts / trackies with no branding when training. I have a pair of adidas runners and a pair of brooks trainers, simply because they offer the best support for my dodgy old feet. But at the end of the day does it matter what anyone wears as long as they are relaxed and happy? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GammaGlobulin Posted September 2, 2023 Author Share Posted September 2, 2023 3 hours ago, This Guy said: the end of the day I, too, have been impressed with this monumental film that you allude to, and I never tire in the viewing. There are, no doubt, many lessons to be learned. You may call me an anachronism, if you will, however my view is that the extreme brand consciousness of today, as well as the chasing after prestige products that this engenders, causes most people to become anything BUT relaxed and happy. You say that your feet are old and tired, but are they old enough that you can recall a better time, a time before our world became a landscape of logos? Or, have you forgotten? Do we really benefit from the further divisions to society that luxury brands depend upon to sell their goods? Are you, at least, old enough to clearly recall the world when we were expected to dress for dinner? How sweet it was! I, for one, miss the days of Lord Darlington... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they paid me Bt.90,000.00 per month to wear it at night, I would. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You research or know and add proof links to your posts, that are really helpful and interesting "These simple alms we do not find among the worldly. For their giving is of such a character, that the right hand gives but the left hand takes...yes, given in such a way that one takes ten times as much in place of what he gives...." “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will depart.

thailand49 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) Don't be a hypocrite, as long as one is part of society no one is exempt. Advertising isn't just on clothing as long as you are a foreigner in Thailand you advertised without wearing it a ATM, in time that is changing as we speak tomorrow we will be advertising a QR code. ????

KhunLA Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) I refuse to buy any garment with name brand on it. Foot wear hard to avoid, but that's as far as I'll allow.

Purdey Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 I suppose the last laugh’s on the brand owners as the clothing here is mainly knock offs, so the branding doesn’t help them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datsun 1200 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 In AA they prefer people don't wear clothes that advertise booze. Some are strict, Other than that, who cares? Just be aware that branding/propaganda works. I advertise Ferrari occasionally for free, I have been meaning to ask them for a cut of the revenue I surely generate.

herfiehandbag Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) On 9/2/2023 at 2:26 AM, London Lowf said: Yes, it's technically advertising but does anyone take a blind bit of notice? During the daytime I wear dirt-cheap football shirts from the local market, just like Somchai wears. They're covered in branding (including Durex and Pornhub on a couple) but they're nice and bright to match my flambouyant personality, easy to wash, last for ever, and I think they're funny. However, none of my evening shirts or shorts are branded. Sometimes the problem is that the Thais do not understand the "slogans"! I am sure that the teenage girl ( and parents ) who regularly attends Mass here in the football shirt branded for PornHub would be mortified if she/they knew! I have a Brunswick Green polo shirt with the old (lion on a wheel) British Railways motif on it - but it is not so much advertising as that I really like steam locomotives!
