girlx Posted August 30, 2008 Author Share Posted August 30, 2008 girlx I wouldn't be so quick to judge TV members. yeah true but it is more a judgement of gullivers. i went to a bangkok meet up there before and it was horrible. plus, honestly (as several other people on here wrote me and said as well) if i wanted to meet a bunch of men at gullivers, i could go there any night of the week. i shouldn't have put it as an option on the poll but i didn't think people would really vote for it! anyway another reason i have lost interest is because i think i am headed back to NY in a few weeks, so you see there is more to the story... who actually did end up going? i guess that 5000b went over well if there were only 8 of you!

GungaDin Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 (edited) This seems to be a repeat of the no-shows & confusion 5 years ago when Gullivers was chosen as the meet up venue. Not the best choice, it's too big for starters! Edited August 30, 2008 by GungaDin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaiYaang Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 (edited) Who chose Gulliver's anyway? That place is a sh_thole, same goes for all of lower Sukhumvit and basically all of sukhumvit from 1-37 on the odd side and 2-22 on the even... I've never seen so many hos in my life.But I wasn't a snob about it **cough girlx cough*** and I went. I had a moment of "<deleted>" as I pulled into the soi (thanks for the parking advice btw to whoever said Foodland) And I think I'd have a more legit reason not to be seen at Gulliver's than her. Oh and that Foodland is the most fcuked up Foodland I've ever seen. Let it be known. Enough about that... yep there were more than 8 (which is pretty freakin sad anyway, because this is the BKK forum, come on people - even the old fogeys in Surin have better showings at their BBQ/pre-funeral get togethers). But yeah, besides the dude who sat by himself up front (LOL), there were at least 5 others who shunned the other 8 because they, ahem, didn't suit our "demographic" requirements girlx I wouldn't be so quick to judge TV members. I'm sure TV has it's share of fat old balding dudes, but you never know who's on here... there may very well be some members who are out of your league as well... so let's try to be nice to each other here in the BKK forum and let Rukjung wreak havoc in the General!!!! "which way to the gym?" LOL yeah, morre fcuked up than Tesco/Lotus plus small fee for parking. Lucky still got all your wheels.

Fair enough. I've never heard of gullivers and i've been here for 6+ years. Now I know why I've never heard of it. But even after I pulled into the soi and thought about doing BKK a service by running down the hookers and other sketch on the street, I went in NOT because I was planning on posh, but because it was the place that was chosen by TV members for a TV meeting. (No, I really just wanted to meet jingthing and see if he was as pathetic in real life as he is on here jk - not.) It was about TV not the place. Gave it a try and met some nice people (and that's without having met the other 8 plus the one guy in the front plus Chuck Norris (unless I was sitting with you and Texas Ranger is your TV ID!) Ok next time we can raise the bar. How high do you want it? Because frankly you didn't set the bar very high with the choices you gave. (Not your fault, I suppose as you're new to BKK).

They should have paid me for parking my car there! That Foodland was messed up!!!!

seobangkok Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 I find it quite amusing that those that didn't make it are blaming the venue. It's a pub for crying out loud... it's what you make of it isn't it? Should the next meet up be in the Oriental Hotel for some cocktails? 8 out of 116 that voted showed up, it was fun, but would have been a lot better with more peps.

CelticBhoy Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 I must say 'sorry' for not making it after voting on your poll. I live quite far away and just couldn't make it, so sorry. I am astonished that "girlx" didn't take the time to pop in and see you all after putting the meet together. What does that tell you about her? Put me down for the next one . . . . . . Mick.

mrtoad Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Apologies from mrtoad, ended getting called at 6.30 whilst on my way into Sukhumvit that I needed to run through some tender documents, bloody deadline was Monday morning, and Friday night was the only time I could go through them with my work colleague . I shall make the next one, but hopefully it will be in a better venue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"which way to the gym?" LOL Ok, maybe I am misunderstanding and you are being ironic, but whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat is the obsession with age all about? If I hear more mention of this "wrong demographic" bullshit I am going to despair. Back in 2004 I was only just 21 years old and I went to a Thaivisa.com meetup- I met some great people including one chap who I have been friends with ever since and has been like a mentor to me with Thai issues- he is about to turn 60 years old I greatly value my friendship with him. I also met some friends my age. Some of you need to grow up if you think you can't have a good time with people not within 5 years of your age. I think the real issue is your lack of self confidence. I find it really weird some of you went and were too SHY to ask around for the right group of people! I myself had to ask 6 or 7 tables before I found the right one. Im still alive having done so! For the Record, at least three of the people there were under the age of 27! There was also a huge thailandfriends.com meet on the table right next to us with some 30 people from age 17 to 75! And there's nothing wrong with gullivers, I come from a snobby English royalist family and if I can bloody well enjoy it so can you. "I cant be seen in Gullivers" what a load of TRIPE.

girlx Posted August 31, 2008 Author Share Posted August 31, 2008 aw ok so the meet up was a bit of a flop... there will be more in the future. and next time gullivers won't be on the list! i only put it on there because i was trying to cover all the venues people mentioned in the first thread talking about meet ups. at least some people managed to get together and have a good time, i don't think anyone should have felt obligatedto go- that kills the spirit of it. as for me, i am pretty sure i exist - at least last time i looked in the mirror i was still there. but besides the fact that yeah, i am a bit shy to rock up to a place which is well known to be patronized by farang female hating sexpats on my own, as i mentioned i had problems at that venue in the past. & my plans have changed since the idea was conceived, and i may not be staying in bangkok much longer- it makes it easier to leave when i have fewer connections here .

Farang friends of mine in this country range in ages from 23 to 55+. What has age got to do with it? You either like the guy or you don't! In fact out of the multitudes I know and associate with, only a couple are roughly the same demographic as myself. Well, then again I'm an oddball....

mmushr00m Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Apologies to everyone. I did make it there, walked in, didnt know where everyone was then walked out. Went up to afew ppl and asked Thai Visa but after afew, bugger offs and you police? replies I gave up. It was a long trek to gullivers filled with danger (accosted by hordes of LBs and over effeminate gay guys on way to BTS, on BTS, exit of BTS, Nana and on way to Gullivers, I seem to be a LB and gay guy magnet) and when I got there I got a call and had to leave. BasiCally an old old old mate flew into town just for the night and I hopped over to Soi 8 to meet him. maybe next time a more intimate area.

Hawkup2000 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 It was only a simple meeting, everyone who did not show up don´t have to feel guilty and make excuses. I prefer Thong lor and Ekkamai. But let´s face it Gulliver´s is just a venue, it is not a war zone. I accept the "I-can´t -go-to -that-dreadful-place" talk if you are an 17 year old hiso Thai girl otherwise not... And yes, I appreciated the mix of people. I felt like I was a member of the gang in the movie Ocean's Eleven . To the members of the gang of "thaivisa´s Ocean´s 8": hope to see the same gang next time but maybe at a different venue. And then I won´t be that drunk that I have to go home early . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotcom Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 aw ok so the meet up was a bit of a flop... there will be more in the future. and next time gullivers won't be on the list! i only put it on there because i was trying to cover all the venues people mentioned in the first thread talking about meet ups. at least some people managed to get together and have a good time, i don't think anyone should have felt obligatedto go- that kills the spirit of it. Speak for yourself. The people that went along seemed to not have any problems with Gullivers. They have one of the sweetest smoking setups around. They have ashtrays outside - unlike Kao San by all accounts. One member of admin was there & he seemed pretty happy. Gullivers is a great meet up spot. Snobs who don't like it I wouldn't want to party with anyway. If you want Ribs - Let's hit Great American Rib on Soi 36. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
