BigStar Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 21 hours ago, Pattaya57 said: Because he said a coffee at Starbucks at the Avenue was 100 baht. That I know is untrue so suggests rest of story untrue also You mean, he neglected to offer another 5 baht? I think 100 is close 'nuff.

I've seen the guys you're talking about. In 2022 there was one in a pharmacy on Buakhao who had a gangrenous foot from diabetes. The lady pharmacist tried to direct him to the hospital but he was already drunk before noon and would have none of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the OP gave the supposed victim 100 baht for a coffee without claiming it would cover the extra 5 baht. But now @Ralf001comes up with the 100-baht brewed coffee. So then, where's your BS?

Bobthegimp Posted March 2 Author Share Posted March 2 6 hours ago, Pattaya57 said: Since when does the Avenue DIY store sell socks to go with his slippers? His whole story is made up Also no empty lot behind Avenue Apartments where guy supposedly woke up? Ok, enough from the peanut gallery. Technically you're right, because behind the Avenue condos is the Whisper Hotel and the vacant lot is behind that. What in the name of God do I, or the drugged guy have to gain from fabricating such a tale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were amazing and very thorough with cleaning his wounds. A Thai person cared enough to give the man a used pair of sandals, albeit a small size. That's really what the thread is about, the kindness and generosity of the local people. There's a dirt lane from Buakhao to Soi 15 that passes a vacant lot on the right, then the Whisper Hotel, then The Avenue Condo. It was my deduction that this is the "field" the gentleman woke up in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your quote has been changed from what I posted You may have been referring in your inarticulate way to my own statement. I usually do order the Americano. However, the OP's 100 baht turns out to have been correct for brewed coffee. 🙂 You may post a photo from the menu next time you're in. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
