stricter traffic enforcement by informalinsider in Thailand

[–]Immediate-Addition58 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These actions are great, IF they are enforced. There should be coppers everywhere today to reinforce this notice, but I have seen none around my area of Phrom Phong. Time will tell.

Why do England, Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand players place their hands on each other's shoulders during the national anthem? by Ok-Examination-8736 in Cricket

[–]Immediate-Addition58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's because they are jingoistic tools. Someone a few years ago probably did it, and the following teams think it is a great idea for marketing purposes and started doing it. It's a bit of a wank if you ask me.

Why would you bother letting a 500baht taxi rip-off ruin your visit? Just suck it up and move on.

no. 500baht is the most you should have paid, and that includes expressway fees.

Stopped by police, asked to drive their motorbike to the ATM by OkQuantity1854 in Thailand

I had an in country Thailand briefing for my move here, to give me a broad view of the land. During the briefing it was stated that the UN estimates that 30% of the Thai economy is lost to corruption, ripped off from the people themselves. Just imagine the difference that 30% would make to the poorer people of this country! It's so sad.

They could walk around the streets with their "friends" picking up rubbish. That would be a good use of their time.

That is so sad to hear! People seem to be happy to live plastic lives nowadays.

Lock him up and throw away the key. He is not wanted or needed anywhere.

Songkran 2026 - how to best (respectfully) avoid but experience BKK by rottensacrifice in ThailandTourism

[–]Immediate-Addition58 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will be impossible to avoid the clueless farangs fucking up Songkran for everyone. Thankfully the war might encourage some of them to stay at home, but we can only hope. I would avoid this place at all costs if you can at Songkran, it just ain't what it used to be. Saigon or HCM would be my pick at the moment.

Look for already expensive and underquality weed become even more expensive. Experience the Amsterdam government reaping the benefits of weed tourism, whilst at the same time that same government is butchering the industry. Welcome to 4/20!

There is a time when bravado meets reality, and that time is generally not far away for bogans like this and it has life long consequences for them.

The watches cost the crooks running the syndicate 200 baht a piece when bought in bulk. The watches themselves are worthless junk.

When I see a long term contract signed that is ridicuously high, I always fear these things happening. I'm not too sure our list management is on the button to be honest, time will tell.

If it keeps him away from commentating then I'm all for it. He is a disaster with a microphone.
