rijit Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 people, more times than not girls, using their phones not watching where they are walking. Bangkok is shocking for that; I find it makes little difference whether they're using their phones or not. They're generally not looking where they're going in either case. Just deliberately bump into them, without using much force, then smile and say "solly" See? Bad manners just encourages more bad manners. Personally, I hope that my standards of behaviour are not affected by the idiots around me SC I'm not sure it does, i seemed to spend a life time avoiding bumping into people in bangkok not one of them was aware that i had taken the trouble to avoid them , but if i bumped into them perhaps just perhaps the penny would sink into that watching where they were going would help . or maybe they would just be pissed with you and blame you,,, lose lose really I suppose.I; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoshowJones Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 SoiBiker, I'm Scottish actually, and not proud of that either, they complain about the British governments, but don't have the bottle to be independent, apart from Glasgow that is. and no.

NoshowJones Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Why would I want to deliberately bump into someone? Because they walk in front of you without looking, and walk straight into you because they are too busy poking on their smartphones. Tell you what, the next time you see someone walking towards you playing with their smartphones, or any other reason, just stop and spread your arms a little bit and they will walk into you. I have done it a few times, and it can be quite funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, you don't want to be unpleasant unless they are unpleasant to you first. Just give them a big smile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessi Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 People chatting on cell phones while walking down the sidewalk.... Morons stopping at the top of escalators and just standing there thinking which way to go... Or continue chatting on their cell phones.... Waiting to make a turn when some A..hole thinks he can just force his way in front of you after he jumped 20 other cars in the line... And he is chatting on his cell phone during the entire process... Going out with your mate and he spends the entire night chatting on his cell phone.... i think I just hate rude people who chat on their cell phones when they should be paying attention to something else. What he said......PLUS The R Soles that tail gate on the road trying to force you over... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

55Jay Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 After my share of years in the middle east, I do appreciate the fact Thai drivers don't typically use their car horn to communicate their thoughts and feelings to other drivers. However, it pisses me off that this isn't because Thais are the calm, polite Buddhists the brochure lead me to believe they were. It's because they are terrified the other one will pull out a 9mm and blow them away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redandyellow Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 What pisses me off the most is the inherent pack mentality on TV. That's what happens when you don't try to grovel with the other sycophants - to get into the cyber hierarchy of their anonymous henchmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
