fish fingers Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I've seen a few nutsy things but the best was going out for sunday lunch in Thong Lor a couple of yrs back and suddenly there's a naked arab guy running up 55 - he looked out of his box.. then he hid between two parked cars.. by this stage a large crowd had gathered and he decided to run into the Bridal Shop. A Hi-So lady was having a dress fitting and suddenly the naked arab appeared in the window and sat on the sofa, cue plenty of screaming and running around Then the cops appeared, dragged him out and handcuffed him in the back of an open pick up. Kind of felt sorry for him, he's obviously been drugged by a lady (or ladyboy)of the night Whats yours? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE1 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Driving into Nakhon Pathom from the North , all the vehicles started slowing down , hazard lights on and horns blaring . There was what appeared to be an off duty copper walking in the middle of the road pissed. He was trying to hit vehicles as they passed and at one point threw his radio at a vehicle. I'm pleased he didn't have his gun with him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mca Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Years ago I went into a local Family Mart which had a polystyrene cool box in front of the counter. Now usually these contained promotial items such as iced tea cans etc in half melted ice. This one contained those cardboard packaged slices of microwaveable pizzas, garlic bread etc - complete with the half melted ice. The packaging was sodden through. Give me strength.

Give me strength. similar: seen on an island: big big box came with the ice and all kind of food that needs cooling inside. Many not washed fruits. Someone saw meat as well (but I didn't see it myself). They took out the fruits, cleaned them nicely. The dirty ice and the cleaned fruits went into the cocktails on the evening...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h90 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Well that Arab might have drunk too much.....coming from countries with alc ban they underestimate it sometimes. Anyway he has some good story to tell when he comes back home..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubbaJohnny Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Lampost 1-2 metres in the rd used to surprise me, bare faced bill padding cheating and lying to save face. Of course like all of us who have enjoyed the Thai way for two centuries very little can astonish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJP Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 The size of the old woman after the third kid. Had no idea a person could blow up to such a size and still ride a scooter. Quite incredible engineering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G.

I saw this a few times before Thaksin killed so many drug dealers. The drug problem seemed much worse back then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Sigurris Posted October 10, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2014 What is interesting is that what we thought was crazy when we first came here is now everyday. Who bats an eyelid at 4 on a bike with no lights travelling the wrong way down the road? A disco bus with all but a few square inches of windscreen covered in stickers? Welders in flip flops and no eye covering? Being stopped by police for your driving licence whilst scores of thais drive by with no helmets? Gotta love this place though 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beetlejuice Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) This took place about 25 years ago by the moat in Chiang Mai. It was around midnight ready to cross the road from the moat to visit the Spotlight bar. Then suddenly I saw a pick up with about 6 Hill-tribe people all dressed in their tradition Hill-tribe costumes sitting on the open back of the pick up. They had stacks of ornaments with them and it seemed they were on their way out of town after a day of peddling their wares to the tourists. But to my amazement this was no regular pick up truck, but a Rolls Royce converted into a pick up. I only wish I had a camera with me as it was a sight to behold. And no, I was not drunk. Never seen anything like that since and from my experience, that was one of the craziest sights I have ever seen in Thailand.

I have never seen a naked Arab ( thank god!) but seen a few legless ones around Sukhumvit chatting to Ladyboys, that can be amusing to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaalle Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) Two bikes with two Koreans on each bike literally crawling across one of the big highways in Phuket to get in to a side street, with big cement trucks and other on coming traffic whistling by centimeters away. I was in total chock and convinced they where going to get mangled and I was going to get hit with parts of the bikes or parts of the Koreans. I even screamed at them in a panic and they just looked at me like I was the biggest idiot in the world. I have never been to Korea but I wonder how they drive there.

Brit_Doggie Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Last 2 nights had a russian lady and a gentleman twice her age sit at the table next to us very pretty lady until your eyes fix on her low cut dress, then you slowly but surely see the thin shoulder straps fall down omg talk about fried eggs, wheres her bra i ask myself still in the wash. i guess. Well had i been in walking street or 1 of the disreputable sois i wouldnt have minded but there was my gf looking at the same show so naturally being the hero type i bravely confronted the woman and told her bluntly that i was amongst friends enjoying a social drink and to go flaunt her eggs elsewhere. Seemed i upset the old fella who was all touchy feely with her as well and he said ok let's go home. Ok we all know how to make a old man happy but do it in private please.
