bkkmadness Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 If it weren't for hippies finding this country a few decades ago, most on this forum wouldn't be here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Clifton Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I saw a hippie once in 1972. I think I also saw him in 1973 and he thought we were in 1971. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave the Dude Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Is that you on the left ? Looks like a good beer there judging by the costume it must be Heineken... judging by the costume it must be Halloween Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
senign Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 From this website: http://www.delta.com/planning_reservations...ation/index.jsp ADMISSION AND TRANSIT RESTRICTIONS: The government of Thailand: 1. may refuse admission to visitors: - dressed in an offensive manner, e.g. only singlet or waistcoat, shorts, silk pants, slippers or rubber/wooden sandals, unless part of a national costume; so basically, most of the tourists walking around Sukhumvit and Pattaya.... Broad brush painter I see. Hmmm, I wonder what cess pool you hail from. This forum would be 75% less populous without those 2 very popular areas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackArtemis Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 So American girls can still wear booty shorts, and tube tops showing off their muffin tops while wearing flip-flops. Hey it seems my national costume is "whore" for most of the 16-28 crowd... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mijan24 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 .... - dressed in an offensive manner, e.g. only singlet or......slippers or rubber/wooden sandals, unless part of a national costume; Oh, thats ok for Australians. Singlet and thongs (Rubber Slippers) are the national dress Khutan yes but if it states formal then be expected to wear leather thongs and possibly a bow tie with the singlet.

southbot Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 (edited) I did a Yahoo Images search for "australian national costume". There was only one, single listing there. True, try it out. Here is the linked image: Australian National Costume: So does this mean that Aussies can arrive nekkid 'cept for the thongs/flipflops? I mean, if Yahoo sez that this IS the cozzy, then isn't that official? PS: I also searched Google Images for "australian national costume" but there were NO results. Hmmm, wonder what that means? Maybe I better try Wikipedia? Edited October 19, 2006 by southbot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astral Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 This information is so old. I remember reading it back in the early 80s. However you will always get a better reception if you dress smartly and have your hair cut neatly, wherever you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we should all contribute to Wikipedia to have the dress of a footy / cricket Yobbo acknowledged as the Australian National Dress. Of course the Red Esky with the white lid would be an accessory to the National Dress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Clifton Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 just goes to show how thais treat farangs(caucasians) The girl was Thai!!!!! Why make such a dumb sweeping statement? Exactly But then some posters seem to have the IQ of a geranium I saw a hippie once in 1972. I think I also saw him in 1973 and he thought we were in 1971. YES!!! That's the guy!!!

Holy crap, you've seen American girls in Thailand? I met one, once, but she was engaged to a guy that worked for the diplomatic corps. I didn't know our female counterparts, of their own volition, made it across the big ocean full of sea monsters, bird flu and natives waiting to kidnap pretty white girls so that they can be on Nancy Grace's show on CNN to the land of "Thar Be Dragons."

I dug around and found this picture of the two of them as we passed them on the street... they had just rolled down their window and a huge plume of smoke came out from inside their car... we all thought it was on fire, but there were no flames: The guy in your picture was with the Young Republicans, wasn't he? I think he ran for Governor of California or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah there are quite a few American girls here and there, look for a dumb blonde dressed way too skimpy for the culture with her ipod on... I can only hope that these girls would go back to the safety of Nancy Grace so they can stay safe, far far away from me. Nancy scares me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
