Generally throughout Asia, it appears that the foot is viewed as the lowest part of the body, 'lowest' in every sense of the word, and is generally viewed as something which should be kept as far away from the head as possible, and it is known by most expats in Thailand that showing the sole of the foot is particularly frowned upon.

The head is also sacred, the higest point of the body, to be respected, and should not be touched by anyone but the owner or a masseuse, yet in our culture it is entirely different and viewed with less seriousness.

A man who I work with almost got beaten to death in Korea for dancing on a table with his underwear on his head, and in the early hours of yesterday morning in a Beijing bar called Suzi Wongs, I experienced some strange yet less agressive looks from the Chinese after drinking beer from my mate Liam's left shoe.

I was a little worried that our drunken highjinks had caused offence but I was too drunk at the time to register any local disdain and would not wish to offend anyone should I ever wish to do the same in Thailand next time I visit.

I doubt it makes any difference but for what it's worth, I was supposed to pour the bottle of Sol into one of my trainers but they are brand new so he offered me one of his Reeboks as he'd had them nearly a year.

seems a great way to get a free drink Scamp :D

Ill give you a straw and fill the toilet on your next visit :o

I just had a cup of jasmine tea with my oatbran rolls and kiwi salad and had to ask room service to change the knife as I dropped it on the bathroom floor.

Funny how alcohol makes one less fussy.

By the way, I have suffered no ill affects or lack of faecal solidity since Wednesday nights stunt, probably because germs don't like alcohol as much as I do and the only negative result is that I have passed my initiation into the hard drinkers association within my company.

If this is what you want to hear, then I do wretch a little when I think about shoeboating and it's not something I will be doing in Thailand, no mater how adventurous or debauched my homecoming hootenanny gets this coming October. :o

Are you EVER going to grow up? I'm sure by this statement:

"the only negative result is that I have passed my initiation into the hard drinkers association within my company."

The only positive portion of this statement is that you state it's a NEGATIVE RESULT. NO "pulled the rest"

Drinking Beer From Your Shoes, Is it offensive?

There are 654 different types of bacteria that live in your shoes. 300 are non lethal 250 will make you sic, 104 are the same ones that come with common fertilizers.

All of them come with a healthy dose of scorn, laced with ‘did you see that idiot?’

"There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe and it has a longer shelf life."

The foot on most people is the lowest part of the body, but it seems that the tongue is the dirtiest and on some the lowest. But what the heck drink from someone’s shoes, you have 654 ways to do yourself in if not only for a 3 day BKK belly. :o

....huh? You mean you are supposed to have solid poo?? In Thailand?? Is that possible...? Oh, hang on the Scamp is in China!

Honestly! You actually rejected the idea of drinking out of your own shoe in favour of drinking out of another guys shoe because it was a year old.......

Bleaaaarghhhhhh!

Can't stand the thought of drinking out of ANYTHING that has had feet in it - even female feet.

Think about how your feet smell when you pull them out of your runners after a nice run on a warm day..... :o
