When was the last time you went to a rooftop bar? How much did you spend?

During my last trip to Pattaya, I stayed at the Hiltron and visited the rooftop bar. I have no idea how much I spent; I simply handed them my Visa.

Do you ever ask yourself why you turn every thread into chaos by trying to challenge everyone with stupid questions and trying to prove you are better than everyone?

I'm not better than anyone. I just posted facts.

Just admit it, you can't afford a rooftop bar. You asked me how much I make per hour. How much do you make per hour?

This topic was created to lightheartedly spread some positivity by discussing the best things about living in Bangkok. However, it has been infected by a virus and completely derailed, shifting in the opposite direction with great negativity. Instead of focusing on the positives, one poster has turned it into a stream of reasons to dislike Bangkok, dislike rooftop bars, discussing personal finances and drifting further into unrelated discussions about beach bars and so on.

As a result, I have asked the moderators to simply close the topic in order to cut off the ongoing nastiness being perpetuated by the one bad actor.

Proving unequivocally precisely why he's so despised - stupidly I got drawn in before noticing the volume of 'dislikes' he's received in a very short period of time.

Oxygen theif.

There remains continued opportunity for people to discuss favourite restaurants and activities in Bangkok etc - if everyone manages to ignore polluting vermin.

I'll add a couple

Top Golf near Mega Bang Na - Great fun for Family.

Shrimp fishing (and restaurant)

Outdoor restaurants along Ramintra-Navamin rd - and nr outer ring road (east side)
