krisb Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) The nasal sniffers do come in handy. They are excellent at killing the stench when one is handling garbage or dead bodies. I have one in my bag. They come in 2 parts: The nose insert and the screw off reservoir at the bottom. If you ever have an opportunity to watch the folks that remove the dead bodies that have been sitting in a room for a few days, you'll notice they smear a bit of the liquid under their nostrils before entering the room. Please tell me more of the dead body stories How many do you see? Why you? and how often? Edited November 12, 2012 by krisb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisb Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Sniffing those things beats the heck out of smoking cigarettes and drinking Thai whiskey then punch up at a mor lum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisinth Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 The err thing, when I hear westerners using it I can't help but cringe as I think it sounds fairly ridiculous, especially when their Thai is limited. This is one habit I have left behind and don't plan on using. Me and the missus use English all the time pretty much and I still do it. It's horrible. We have an Indian friend who's Thai wife has adopted the "Indian Head Wobble" from him and so when they come over for drinks we have to get that in stereo when they wish to display their indifference to a statement... Indifference? The wobble can mean more than indifference. It can signify Yes, No, I don't know, I agree with you, I disagree with you, etc. All at the same time!

BookMan Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 My favourite Thai habit is to leave the shoes out of one's home. For many habits, Thai or not Thai, it's a matter of respect and good manners. The sniffy thing.. Well, honestly, it seems a bit ridiculous to me..A girlie thing anyway, I like the shoe habit also. Makes me wonder about how I used to wear my shoes all through the house getting dirt everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rattler Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I like to loudly fetch up phlegm in public, and if thats not gross enough better cover one nostril and try and blow the fellow out with full force like a bullet but it must be done with exaggerated body movements for full effect!!
