Popular Post Thai at Heart Posted July 26, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 26, 2013 Will Yingluck be one of the contestants? I think that is the issue. She genuinely thinks she's both brilliant and beautiful. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone remmember Thaksin was so pissed when one camera man was waiting to film him after he finished his business and come out of the toilet?? 55555 I can remember him criticising the Thai version of " The Weakest Link " as the aggressive, sarcastic style of the host a la Anne Robinson was not suitable and didn't fit the Thai personality. Personally I'd rather be insulted than someone arranging to have me killed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Siripon Posted July 26, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 26, 2013 Why would an intelligent woman wish to join Yingluk on a tour? This is a woman who thought Had Yai was a province and Singburi was next to the sea, not to mention the country Sydney. I suspect Suranand and his ice-cream gang are behind this vapid idea. Stick to the cornettos boys and girls, and please no more silly ideas. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skywalker69 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I heard the show will be called Thailand's Got Cosmetic Surgery. Is there a way to inject more braincells? If so our dear PM/DM should be first in line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orac Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Like many TV posters I am also shocked at the idea of womens intelligence being promoted on Thai TV and may start a protest insisting on the superficiality being maintained where appearance is far more important than substance - maybe they can all be dressed in those bunny girl outfits used by 'prettys' on TV so as not to raise the tone too much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
