craigt3365 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Let's move this over to the Farang Pub. P.S. If you have only ever noticed this in Thailand, you have not traveled around Asia much. Especially China! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
61guitarman61 Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 We have an alcoholic next door neighbor here. I mention alcoholic because it seems that the hocking lugie thing is associated with excassive drinking. Perhaps it creates excess mucous to accumulate overnight or something but every morning starting at maybe 5:30 or 6, (can tell without looking at a clock if it is 6 due to the monk's prayer gonging promptly at 6 every morning and night), he starts in with the most aweful wretching you can imagine, lasting a few minutes to sometimes a half hour. I also hear others in the neighborhood periodically also but this guy is the worst. Those down the street I ignore but the guy right below our bedroom window is definitely not an easy sound to put out of your thoughts. I don't ever make anything of it, altough I have been tempted to mock-wretch back at him from time to time. Aawwwwwwwwcccckkkkkkkkkkkk spitoooooy!!!!!!!!!!

mightyharriss Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 what about the opening car door at traffic lights spitting in front of everyone in a stationary vehicle thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkawish Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 what about the opening car door at traffic lights spitting in front of everyone in a stationary vehicle thing. No way.... Not us.... That will surely tarnish our grossy paint on our Mercedez.... LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolf5370 Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 With the amount of TB in Asia, it should be a criminal offense - of course, it would just end up another 200 baht BiB cash cow. I knoiw a Thai guy who works at a local restaurant. He went down with TB about 2 weeks ago. He was in hospital for about a week then was released with perscriptions and a face mask and orders to stay at home. So, of course he went to work the next day - for 2 days he wors the mask, but customers left the restaurant in fear. So, now he is working in the restaurant with no face mask with TB - nice. Before he went in, he was always hawking up! In the west he would be sent to a TB clinic until he was no longer infectious, not here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaiChai Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Which resteraunt would this be, so I can avoid it? Hope this does not fall into the naming and shaming rules because it would be in the public interest to know where this is, so we don't get TB.

harrycallahan Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Yeah as above, I spent a winter in Beijing. The winter in Beijing is sub-zero but mostly dry. Those, ummmm... grots, they freeze solid. They don't just pose a visual obscenity but also can serve as discarded banana peels to the unwary pedestrian.
