Popular Post ChumpChange Posted May 28 Popular Post Share Posted May 28 Another thing is the massive rise in methamphetamine use. It's not a happy drug. It makes people more edgy, violent, aggressive, etc. And it wasn't something that was as heavily used 15-20 years ago. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thai guy next to me looks like he bought his clothes in the 1930s. So what is your point? Bob. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hummin Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 3 minutes ago, ChumpChange said: What I said about Soi 6 was a joke based on the recent violence where a guy was kicked in the head and is lucky not to have been killed. Yes, smartphones and social media are all part of the new antisocial movement. Thais are really bad. But most other Asian countries are equally as bad. Part of the issue about Asians is they never find it impolite, even at social gatherings with other people, to pull out their phones and doom scroll forever at any given moment. Soi 6 was also mentioned as a joke from my behalf, since I got some heat when I said soi 6 could not be a quality tourist destination or quality tourist who frequently visited there. Using smart phone everywhere with sound. Even at 5 star hotels, they (thais and chinese do not care when having breakfest or around the pool.

TroubleandGrumpy Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 We have travelled a lot around Thailand this year. It seems to me that some Thais in Bangkok are not doing as well as they hoped after the pandemic and are not smilling as much. They are the same in Hua Hin and I hear the samne in Phuket etc. But in Isaan they are pretty much smilling as much as they were before the pandemic. My Wife's smile always brightens up my day, and the same thing for most of the family and people people I meet in Isaan. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
