Thai's taking slefies.

[bertty]

Just how many pictures do people need to take of themselves?

I often go for a walk/jog around a lake near Asoke and will see loads of mainly Thai girls taking selfies. And 20 minutes later when I walk past again they are still doing it.

Pulling faces, leaning one side then the other, making v signs etc etc. Do they realize how retarded they come across as ?.

And it doesn't seem to matter if they are as ugly as a sack of spanners.

yes i do see this but i am also happy not to feel the urge to post about it one of life's little happenings

not too busy today eh ?? ooh hang in there i have just seen a frog sorry must dash for my camera

[Songhua]

Get any pics?

[ultimate weapon]

Is this some sort of aunt agony gossipy type of forum?

Some men gossiping about what a bunch of strangers do over the most mundane of things.

Last time i checked farang girls did it too in their own countries.

Well stop staring at people and it won't bother you will it.

[krisb]

It's junk like this I give up reading the general forum as of now.

I tend to agree with what your saying Bertty, although I do live and let live with less judgement these days. Too many 'selfies' is a character flaw for sure.

The up side of mega selfies on FB or any other dating site is instantly knowing the shallowness of the owner.

Indeed. I probably didn't make it clear enough as to why it gets my goat as much as it sometimes does.

Taking a picture of yourself every 5 seconds, well if that's your bag carry on. But when people are walking behind you and you just stop for no reason other than to take a selfie, don't get the hump if someone barges into you.

A week ago I was walking down the BTS stairs and someone stopped to do just that with a crowd behind him. Something like that could end up with a lot of people getting hurt.

Really totally ignorant as far as I'm concerned.

If you were in Japan guess what you would see, you got it, Japanese taking selfies, if you were in Switzerland, you'd see Swiss people taking selfies........you getting the idea ?

Next time you see some young Thai people taking selfies, you go and tell them how retarded it is, see how you get on.

Oh dear another one who thinks 10 against 1 is fair. Is that how you got the bang on the head ?

[ravip]

People are so bored today that they find fault of others as a hobby.

Little do they realise their own blaring faults they flaunt around.

The price of development?

Yet I'll wager the Bertty tells all his friends back home what a wonderful life he has in Thailand......secretly regretting the day he set foot in the kingdom, slithering off to his lonely 2500 baht a month fan room after the air conditioned shopping malls close, surviving on Boiled eggs and mama noodles wondering how he will survive the month on his paltry income..

Living the dream Bertty ?

[Costas2008]

OP, have I told you that I got a new phone that I can take selfies?

Can't stop doing it and admiring my gorgeous self.

Is that bad?

Should I see the good doctor again?

Me I'm doing ok thanks for asking.

As for living the dream, I never thought living in Thailand was going to be a dream, why would it ?

Its just another country that has it's problems like the rest of the world.

Reading your comments about someone you have never met makes me think that bang on the head might have done more damage than first thought.

Maybe you should go with Costas to see the doctor.

Completely harmless, and it's hardly a problem. Why don't people just look in the mirror? Is it just me, but didn't a "selfie" mean something entirely different when I was a teenager, in the 1970's? Like when you didn't have a girlfriend at the time ..... if you get my drift.
