fstarbkk Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 My guess , the driver did not hear any whistle blower park-aid and therefor assumed it was safe ...... ...or misinterpreted the frantic whistling behind him a "go go go go!!!!"

evadgib Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) There's a brand new white suzuki just 25m from my computer chair under a tarp where it's been for weeks. The owner purchased it without bothering with the usual formalities like lessons or a test, & managed to have 2 accidents like the ones above in the first week. Now she's too scared to drive it Edited November 11, 2014 by evadgib 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluespunk Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) ...onto the hotel’s glory hole. er...seriously? Does this author even understand what they've just submitted here? ---EDIT--- Reference for those with English as a 2nd language...and a big degree of innocence in the modern world... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glory_hole_%28sexual_slang%29 Maybe I'm giving may age away but it's on my profile anyway but when i was young a ' glory hole ' was a cupboard etc where things not wanted, needed , to be hidden etc were thrown into. Not as exciting as current usage. Ooh I'm getting old. Though 'things not wanted, needed, to be hidden, etc" being thrown into a glory hole could to a certain extent be applied to the current meaning of the phrase. Well one thing anyway.

SinCityGr8One Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 My guess is that they had both hands off the steering wheel to wai the shrine at the hotel. There are times when it is best not to wai, driving being one of them. Spot On! Beeping the horn will suffice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joepattaya1961 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Glory hole? Really? My guess is the author does not understand the meaning of what he said. Same for me.......I do understand the meaning of "glory hole" in the old-fashioned style and the newish sensual style, but what is a glory hole with regards to the hospitality branch?

The Deerhunter Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I think that the modern World has come on too soon for these people. You can't go from 1000 years of buffalo and cart to a Modern city of 10 million cars, pick-up trucks that can do 200kph, and mini-vans that allow you to earn twice as much if you squash twice as many school children in then earn twice as much again if you go really fast and get back in time to do a second run, in one generation. Besides, buffalo and carts were easy, these weird Western things, full of lights and sounds and buttons can go backwards if you select the wrong setting. Too much, too soon. There are idiots like this in every country. Youtube videos of intersections in China, and India. Videos of tunnels in Russia and dashboard cams in Russia (and everywhere else). In New Zealand they until recently even had a weekly TV program, "Road Madness" of out-takes from truck dashboard cams of dangerous passing etc. The biggest point about this news item has to be the idiot journo's absolute howler of referring to a large hotel having a "glory hole." I hear on good authority that this is NOT a recognized use of the term. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazofobe 101 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 One assumes he thought he saw a Thai cop down there. By the way, whatever did happen to the Ferrari-driving hero that wiped out the somchai cop near Thonglor? No really, he got away with it............?
