fatdrunkandstupid Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Last weekend at Nakka markets in Phuket I saw a penis and hairy balls water pistols for sale. They were skin coloured and very realistic in both size and shape. They were displayed in full view and caught my eye because I thought they were sex toys (I have never seen sex toys for sale at Nakka). Anyway they were 150THB a pop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But everyone's different I suppose. Enjoy the ride ... FYI, most Thais don't, and are wholly behind the b'stardisation of the traditional Thai new year. Op seeking best gun/cannon is right in line with this ethos... just avoid making oneself look boorish by going overboard as certain larger'd up farang are known to do in the tourist centers and all will be good. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy the ride ... FYI, most Thais don't, <snip> So Dave, just for clarification ... the Thai population don't 'get' their own celebration/festival? Oh please, if all you see is Thais tossing water around ... you frequent with the wrong people in the wrong places ... The last time I celebrated Songkran it was a combination of ... Respect early on, maybe day 1 or 2 Ordination of the gf's Nephew as a novice monk for 10 days And then sure this ... and lot's of it. All in balance ... maybe you just see the water bit and think the spirit and heart has gone from this special time? I was staying in a reasonable hotel in Pattaya of all places for Songkran ... a polite knock on the door and 3 maids were there. They just wanted to show respect to me. One had a dash of water for my hands, another for the nape of my neck and the other, my forehead. Maybe it just me ... I get to meet the nice Thais ... who knows. Anything else the Natives don't 'get' ? . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baneko Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 My kids are half thai. Is it bad they want a little fun. The Mrs tends to enjoy it to. Go to Bang Saen and see how many thais dont like it with farangs involved. Scotland is well known for their hogmanay celebrations as most know. People from all round the world come. Welcome with open arms and a dram. Thais tend to be the same. Sent from my GT-I9300T using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gsxrnz Posted April 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 11, 2014 (edited) I feel like getting one of these and bolting it to the back of my Vigo, and learning the Thai equivalent for "Go ahead Punk.........make my day."

Popular Post jaffacakes1 Posted April 11, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 11, 2014 Songkran is awful. Who in their right mind would actually enjoy an all day water gun fight / all day drinking session in a positive, street party carnival atmosphere with tourists and locals alike of all ages. Songkran would be banned in the majority of developed countries for various reasons of waste, alcohol consumption, policing, scarcity (see Singapore), health and safety, etc, etc. Love that we have this freedom here.
