Aren't you embarrassed to live in Pattaya

Answer his question! While you are at it answer the ones I have asked you as well.

Think about it, is the posting style you are using now working out well for you? Engaging in nice dialogue and enjoying yourself on here by exchanging ideas? Or pounding away at the keyboard in some sort of cyber war with your "perceived" enemies"

Do you think the mods dont notice when you whine about about people downvoting you and then you turn and downvote any negative comment towards yourself. Stop being a hypocrite and grow up.

I don't know you or him. Two strange guys making up stories online. If you want to get to know me send me a pm and I will meet you sometime for a coffee. I don't drink beer much.

    I’m more curious where you live that’s so flawless. A utopia, is it? No drunks, no dodgy headlines, no locals behaving badly… just everyone sipping herbal tea and filing their taxes early?

    Why do you have such a compulsion to post dispiriting content on this forum. That’s the question you should be asking.

Most people here are of the opinion that the clown has never ever been to Thailand at all. That is probaly why he makes such terribly comments all the time.

I can say for sure, judging by his totally clueless comments, that he hasn't been to Pattaya anytime recently or, if he did visit, he experienced very little, and certainly went none of the places expat residents frequent. Still laughing at the photo of the dirty beach that he posted, after commenting a number of times about how filthy, dirty Pattaya beaches are--which they normally aren't. Only one problem with the photo. It wasn't of Pattaya Beach. No. It wasn't of Jomtien Beach. No. It wasn't of Dongtan Beach. No. It wasn't of Cosy Beach. No. It wasn't of Wongamat Beach. No. If you're going to criticize something with an embarrassing photo, at least make sure you're actually using a photo of what you are disparaging. Clueless.

It’s like if Paddy Doyle was a Mongoloid.

I love his impressive insights, based on nothing or what Paddy said.

Here is a gem:

Hua Hin has good Grab cab ride prices.

If he were any vaguer, he wouldn’t be able to fog a mirror.

How do you know if anyone here is unhappy? Many here don't abuse Trump, and many more don't care. Yes, Thailand has a few things to do, and I'm thinking most if not all members here have already seen most of what Thailand offers, meaning the differences and not the same sames.

Lets take a look at your frenzy. Ranting and raving over a post I made 3 days ago.. Just for context I will put up the post so there is context. What are you trying to prove by bringing this up? Once again notice the downvote, I will bet it is from you as I have so many with just one red thumb down. Dont give a rats ass, but its pretty telling on your end.

Hot spell? April is the hottest month of the year and Bangkok was only 36 today. That is not extreme.

I thought you lived there for 35 years.

I have lots of pm messages from normal people. I can't imagine you have any. Nobody likes you accept the wackos. You obviously have no real friends there.

Bangkok heat index in ‘extreme danger’ zone

Public urged to take extra precautions and avoid daytime outdoor activity if possible

The heat index in Bangkok on Thursday entered the “extreme danger” zone for the first time this season, with “feels like” temperatures higher than or equal to 52 degrees Celsius, City Hall has warned.

The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) issued the warning at 7.30am, urging

people

to avoid outdoor activities during the daytime.

People in high-risk groups should take extra care of themselves, the BMA said.

I've lived in several places in Thailand, and none, in my opinion, compares to Pattaya. First, let's be honest, there's for access to young women.

Faced with the competition, older women struggle to keep friends. So they compensate with hardcore behavior in the West. I can't go into detail here, I'd be banned.

Finally, I settled into a small condo with a very beautiful young woman who works as a nurse at Banglamung Hospital. At almost 75, I'm enjoying this unexpectedly normal relationship that makes me feel like I'm 20 again. All this in Pattaya, Sin City.

When she goes to work, I take the opportunity to cook a good dish from home. For example, tonight, a ham and cheese soufflé. Yum !

Her ex has become a friend. He's the burly bouncer at a ladyboy bar. Their alluring presence doesn't bother me, and I've even discovered an unexpected finesse and sensitivity in some of them. As for Russians, Indians, and testosterone-fueled bodybuilders, I occasionally run into them without ever having the slightest problem.

All this to say that romantic relationships can be incredibly pleasant here, provided you forget arrogance and all the condescending attitudes.

Pattaya City, the high temperature today, April 30, 2026, is 33°C.

Over the last five days (April 25–29), daily high temperatures remained steady, peaking at 32°C from April 25 to 27 and rising slightly to 33°C on April 28 and 29.

That is great weather!

Same same is a Thai phrase. Never found any Thai city the same. Only 7/11s are much the same but some are bigger than others. The beaches all vary. The nightlife varies. The food varies. The people vary. Prices of services vary.

Most everything in Thailand is much the same, with a few differences. All cities and towns have the same things, foods, coffee shops restaurants, noodle shops and markets. Different names all selling much the same things. Some have certain attractions but in general much the same things. Some have a little cultural differences, the south a lot of Malay and Chiang Mai the Lanna, but in general, much the same in architecture and commercial similarities. A lot have the same type of malls and grocery stores, Bangkok being huge having more of everything. Isaan cities are all much the same. .

The beaches vary a little in looks, but still offer the same things.

You can get the same Thai food most everywhere, with a few local differences in certain places, although restaurants do offer most varieties. More foreign food in larger cities, less in smaller towns, none in villages.

There are mountains all over Thailand, and the farmland is much the same everywhere.

Prices are higher in the cities and lower in the country. People are the same with local dialects a difference, more Laos and Cambodian dialects thrown in Isaan but it's still mostly Thai.

City people come from the country areas, and bring that with them wherever they go. Anywhere you go you'll find temples, although there are a few larger ones.

Nightlife is mostly in the larger cities, with some concerts in villages for holidays, and it's still much the same everywhere. Bars, dance clubs, more in cities and especially tourist areas but bars are also everywhere, just without the P4P women like the cities have.

People all drink the same things, with more cheap whiskey in the farm areas because it's a cheap high. This is also what all my friends here have said, who travel quite a bit but usually go back to the same areas as they are used to them, and are known where they stay. The one difference is the hill tribes, who have their own way of living. You could walk around all medium sized cities and see much the same things all over. Of course the tourist places have tourist related entertainment, more than the egular cities.

All movies and tv shows are almost the same. Planes are mostly the same. You might as well never go anywhere as it's all the same according to youn

I call 100% BS on that one (unless it's to abuse you). An outrageous lie.

All movies are the same? Guess you're not that into movies. Traveling is a great thing, but I've done more in a few years in America than the same time here because there's more to offer there.

Pattaya photos followed by small beach town. They don't look the same to me!
