Jameskrabi Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Was the wife who pointed this out . Unshaven, wearing torn clothes and so on "in her words" kinook" What on earth make them go out like this rather than sorting themselves out?

Popular Post StreetCowboy Posted February 16, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) What on earth makes people comment on the appearance of others? I met my former colleagues in the Nana area last week. None of us were wearing dinner suits, but I don't think we matched your description, and I never noticed anyone else in the bar that was particularly scruffy either. What's with blokes taking their wives to Nana, anyway? <snip> SC EDIT: to be honest, when it comes to men who really take an effort with their appearance, I see lots of blokes around Nana who don't just wear the clothes, but they even go the whole hog to improve their appearance - tits, the lot.

And if they don't care what they look like, its because they are out partying wild hangover style, so ripped clothes are part of the look. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You carry on propagating your prejudices and stereotypes, but I think they reflect worse on you than on those of us that drink in the lower Sois SC EDIT: and for clarity, we drank beer and ate food.

StreetCowboy Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 OKay. So we're clear that some Western blokes that go to Nana are decently attired without ripped clothes. Some of us go there to drink beer and eat food with our friends. Contemptible, or what? SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SC God Stop being so self centered The topic is about the guys on Nana with ripped clothes Obviously there are other people on Nana who don't have ripped clothes And probably you are part of them But the topic is about these people with torn clothes and why it is that way.

wym Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Some people go out and don't give a toss what people think of them. Some people think ripped clothes are fashionable. Some people are barely one step up from homeless and prefer to spend their last few baht on booze and girls rather than clothes. To all I say live and let live, why would you care?

slipperylobster Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Well, falangs there in Bangkok on Nana probably look the same in their hometowns...a scruffy lot to begin with. Most never had any social skills such as washing up, shaving or shining shoes. Why be surprised? I find the falangs here where I live (Udon) in a better state of repair, much happier, and not slithering around red light areas. We do have on little street with a congregation of wayward travellers that stop over (probably on the way to Laos). You can tell by their appearance that they dwell near Nana.
