He just worked that out 😂 

 

At least I got new record of negative feedback in this thread. Common sense is rare among smokers. Just basic common sense makes them upset. Fantastic

 

🤣

I don't like the linger of pot smoke when I'm walking with family. 

Strong & overpowering smells of any variety are anything from mildly irritating to outright offensive - weed sits somewhere on that spectrum….

 

… But…. There are a far bigger things to be dealing with - a ‘whiff of weed’ is hardly an issue - someone smoking a cigarette on the table next to you is as bad…. 
 

… a whiff of weed while walking down the street - hardly an issue… it’s better than a stinker in a chant vest or a whiff of rotten drains….

 

Hardly a major point of valid complaint… even as a family man.

Foreigners should resist the idea that they have any rights in Thailand. One set of standards for Thais and another for the evil farang.

Wow,  thanks

 

Lived in Asia 35 years first time anyone pointed out double standards.

Definitely give me a whole heap of these lazy street puffers any day over the loud, red-faced drunks stumbling sloppily through the tourist traps. Honestly, I’ve lost count of how many of them I’ve seen keeled over, vomiting all over themselves and the pavement. And don’t even get me started on the brawls, two-for-one margaritas and next thing you know, it’s UFC on Soi 11. But sure, let’s all pretend weed is the real threat to public order. What a joke.

I see Thai ppl smoking the bamboo bong all the time outside ,,,,,

I don't know where Thais go to smoke. That wasn't my point. I was only saying that they smoke more than the tourists do. But if you're a tourist, where are you going to smoke it if not close to the area where you bought it from? You can't go back to your hotel room and smoke it. So what are your options? Also, there is no smoking of anything allowed in restaurants in Thailand.

Except johnsons

Married with a thai and got property in Thailand.

 

This is just a question of respect for other people, no matter you are Thai, expat or tourist, and without consequences, nothing will change until the authorities take action.

 

For me, it is just a matter of priorities, and choose places where I do not need to be bothered by ignorant dopeheads.

 

It is the weed smokers who destroy for themselves finely, just a matter of time

 

Just another redneck post, alcohol is the worst gutter drug, instant idiots

For starters, you've not been elected to critique my dislikes.

 

The restaurants I like to take the fam to are the nicer establishments where cig smokers has never been an issue. 

 

Now, my disliking the stench of weed smoke is not because it's so offensive but more of a protective parent syndrome.

Its like that in most countries. The citizens live there but tourist dont. They're just visiting and should act appropriately, not like fools.

Riding my motorbikes around in Thailand off the tourist tracks, you do not see Thai smoke in public, like you see tourists smoke in tourist infested areas. 

 

They do not smoke on restaurants with kids, do not sit and roll their joints on the table in public, at the ferries, pick up points.

 

If you see them, its locals at the rasta/pirat/jungle bar and sometimes all the way up in the corner of a beach. 

 

 

So, how many motorbikes can you ride at the same time? 🤣

Oh, good question, one at the time. I had 4 to choose from. Now only 2.

I keep seeing the usual online outrage, foreigners puffing on weed in tourist areas, corrupting the youth, ruining the sacred purity of Thailand with their smelly sins. Won’t someone think of the children?

 

Anyway, today I’m walking down the soi in my respectable, middle class, very Thai neighborhood in Bangkok. Not some expat circus or backpacker zoo. Mostly locals here, the odd foreigner like me sprinkled in. And what do I see? Two Thai dudes, standing right there on the footpath, across from a small private hospital, just casually blazing up. Nice clean clothes. One was wearing an expensive looking Apple Watch. Normal looking guys, early thirties, looked like they were on a smoke break from being well-adjusted members of society.

 

Were they bothering anyone? No. Disturbing the peace? Nope. Summoning demons with their evil Mary Jane flowers? Didn’t seem like it. They were just having a chill chat and a toke, like you might with a coffee or a cigarette.

 

But here’s the ironic part: nobody batted an eye. No concerned aunties clutching their pearls. No kids bursting into tears. No moral panic. No three-alarm fire. Just normal life.

 

So let me get this straight. If a foreigner lights up in a touristy area, it’s a national emergency. But when it’s locals, in a non-tourist, mostly Thai neighborhood, that’s just fine?

And your point is? That takes two paragraphs of tedious non sequiturs?
