Sorry a bit off topic.

I ran one time in Vancouver where apparently drinking in public places is not allowed.

On a piece of waste ground was a group of 25 or so with two guys sat in a tub of ice.

A car came bouncing across the lot. Police.

"Oh its you lot. We've had complaints about the singing" said one officer who had exited the car.

"Yeah, its not very good" Was the response.

The second officer in the car had to cover his face he was laughing so much.

"I want yo lot gone in 5 minutes" trying to keep a straight face

"How about 20"?

"Ok ten, but no more"

Another occasion on another visit, there was beer in the back of a rented movers truck and hare had accidentally locked the rear door.

I know a number said one Hasher who rang it.

"North Vancouver Fire dept." said the answerer.

"Do you have bolt cutters? We've locked a padlock on a truck and the keys are inside"

"We don't do non-emergency calls. What's in the truck?"

"Beer"

"We'll be there in 10 mins"

Sure enough a big red truck came bouncing across a field.

What is this fascination with spotless milk bottles?

Is there any logic behind this?

Trying to wash all the milk out of a bottle can require many minutes of hard work to get it truly spotless.

I believe that just a casual rinse would be sufficient, in most cases.

It was just one of those peculiarities that existed back then.

Most of these foreigners in Thailand come from government housing estates, housing commission.

These people have rarely worked a day in their life, sponging off the social security systems.

These people eat take away food mostly because they are too fking lazy to grocery shop, food preparation, cook and clean.

Is what's gushing out of your mouth: Has it been filtered through any brain?🫣🫣🫣

Ahhhh nice post-workout burn as I drink my strawberry and banana protein smoothie. The great thing I like about having my own gym, I don't have to wait on anyone else. My resistance training is about moving from an exercise for a muscle group, and then moving to another exercise for an opposing muscle group. Max time training is between 10 to 12 minutes max. I'm constantly moving.

What's the price of a annual fitness center / gym nowadays? The home gym cost me around 14K THB. I'll make up the price in a year and get more exercise because I don't have to travel to get to the gym, plus saving the cost of petrol.

Is that your coffin in the background?

Jeez, your hatred of fellow man has reached new lows.

The far right lies that you spew expose your low level of academic achievements and a deep insecurity.

Could you even begin to back up your ridiculous claims of “Most of these foreigners in Thailand come from government housing estates “ and have “rarely worked a day in their lives”

You need help.

I love antagonizing you woke, left people.

I guess Wadeye would be 100% government housing lol, so your right

Interesting post and yes there is no "evidence" as such because there has been no research.

Never fear my dear fellow ,I'm here and I have partially researched low housing in Pattaya such as the flybird condominium and Nirun and if you were to interview the farang residents there I would say a good majority are from originally the Ok low ncome areas of their former land ,

now many , I believe in all my wisdom were from government housing areas

You gotta love the poor people who harbor such an irrational fear of pathogens (Mysophobia) that they wear masks on an open beach surrounded by nothing be clean fresh air. 😕
I didn't understand that during the Covid scare, I don't get it today. It's illogical and counterintuitive. However, I see that behavior even today. These poor people must be psychological basket-cases. Well - each to their own. I'm sure they feel "safe" although they look ridiculous, in my own humble opinion that is. Surrounded by clean, fresh, ocean air, but opt instead to re-breath your own exhalations. 🤔 Nope - I don't get it.

Absolutely!

I must say I cannot wait to get back to Pattaya to research these lower class farangs their backgrounds, their habits etc

What an opportunity I have ,I am excited!

Lol...I actually caught a old guy in Jomtien on my last visit riding one of these mobility scooters , I shouldn't say "old" as he was about 60 , Aussie guy fat overweight and told me he was on the disability pension from Australia as he couldn't work as he had 5 different sicknesses

Apparently Centrelink/ Dept of social security at one stage stopped his disability pension trying to make him work 20 hours a week until he fought in court to beat them as he had trouble walking as he was well near 200kg

He parked his mobility scooter outside the sports bar in Jomtien, the rubbish sports bar opposite subway ,

As he got off he huffed and puffed walking his sweaty fat arse to the chair sitting down drinking beer and two packets of crisps, he only walked a few metres and was wiping his face with napkins sweat pouring off him

As I was leaving this rubbish place I walked over to him and whispered in his ear ...."Go to the gym nine bums !!!!!!

What ? He said shocked

The elderly I presume Australian owner shouted to me "get outta here mate !

You have posted previously that you use a Zimmer frame.

Or was that another made up fantasy that you have become well known for?

Why don't you exercise if your over 60 this is the answer I'm looking for

Apostrophe in YOUR'E and a Full Stop, or Point as some like to call it, after 60. Then a capital T for This.

Take your time typing your many posts and answers so these typos do not occur, then READ what you have typed before SUBMIT.

Yes !!! And I did ....for research purposes

I actually purchased a walking stick from that Japanese store Daiso in that big shopping centre in Pattaya where I pretended and limped and walked on beach road to see who would move out of my way etc

Sadly the only people to show respect to my "disability" were other farangs especially young farangs

You should become a YouTuber and share your research live as it happens. A man of your academic distinction would be a welcome addition.

On my next trip you may join me my dear fellow

Usually I buy the walking stick at Daiso 99 baht

We can make an enjoyable afternoon out of it

You can buy one too and we can do it together

Now what I do enjoy doing is limping slowly in front of people towards that escalator that goes up into the shopping centre near the police station in Pattaya

Then as I get to the escalator. ..I RUN up the escalator, the pure shock on people's faces is priceless !!

Never ceases to amaze me , everytime I post a thread out comes the nutters & weirdos , sometimes I walk around thinking am I the only sane person?

You posted previously you used a Zimmer frame. No mention of a walking stick.

You need to have a very good memory when you post BS continuously.

You have not.

We bought a power rack a few months ago,suitable for a lot of different excercises and good value i think.

I have a suspicion that the OP is all talk and nothing he posts means anything.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't he post that he was gonna start a three exercise workout with the bear hug lift, overhead lift, and kettlebell swing and ask for feedback?

Now he is talking about boxing as means of regular exercise?

I don't know, his topics can be interesting but he is kind of a BSer.

I love how slagging off on white men is one of the last safe havens.

If this thread was talking about black people or Indians I wonder what certain reactions would be.

Smh.

I had one of these for a while but i found the motivation of having to go to a public gym better, maybe you're different.

You're right tho, basically a smith machine and weights is all you need really.
