  1. It may have been a good idea to show the finished hairstyle. That just looks odd and does not resemble a forest fire at all!
  2. There are always going to be problems in holiday destinations unfortunately. Fortunately, there are few really serious incidents. Considering the huge number of visitors to Thailand the incidents are relatively few and so i see no reason to trat all foreigners like criminals.
  3. The victim is not the owner of the shop. She owns the shop next door to the coffee shop where the incident occurred.
  4. His user name is Zioner. Are you suggesting that there is something racist about that? Please explain how. An article that does not refer to a Brit at all, yet you have to show your discrimination against Brits once again.
  5. I am amazed that they still have rice in storage after 10 years! I wonder what the average storage cost per Kg of rice works out at. Wouldn't surprise me at all if they won't recover the storage costs!
  6. I am not in Bangkok, but every day I see parked vehicles left with engines running. Numerous people who do not switch off their engines when buying stuff from roadside stalls. Add in the ridiculously long unnecessary waits at red lights with engines running, that is a lot of pollution that could be avoided. I am guessing that it is much the same in Bangkok.
  7. I wouldn't say that nam prik is a paste. It is usually a condiment with fish sauce, chili, garlic or shallots. Prik kaeng is a paste. I think customs only classify as either solid or liquid (liquid includes gels). So I think that it will definitely be classified as a liquid if it is a paste.
  8. On a related note, does anyone know how long a certificate of residence is valid for?
  9. Hezbollah do not need to defend themselves against the IDF. IDF retaliates when Hezbollah launches missiles into Israel, If Hezbollah didn't attack Israel, Israel will not defend themselves.
  10. In January, it was announced that local authorities should take action against excessive noise levels from entertainment venues. As per usual, completely ignored!
  11. in my experience, very few people drink beer from a bottle if you exclude foreigners. Most Thais buy large bottles which those "condoms" aren't available for. Most Thai bars, you cannot even buy small bottles.
  12. Who are you suggesting should give it away? Would you give away billions to charity?
  13. Dine and Dash? Where was the dash? Thay refused to pay, they did not run.
  14. I keep seeing this term "Soft Power" recently. To be honest, I have no idea what it means and had to look it up, but still not clear. I just cannot see how these pants can be defined as "soft power"! Can somebody please explain?
  15. If I remember correctly that requirement was introduced in Pattaya about 20 years ago.
  16. A bit over 50,000 Baht/month may sound good for a Thai, but it seems very low for an experienced worker on an oil rig and exploitation!
  17. If i was given a price and rejected it because I considered it too high, it would not even occur to me that the person may threaten my life. If you want to buy something in a shop and the assistant tries to overcharge you, will you meekly pay up in case the assistant attacks you with a knife?
  18. "Visa free travel to Thailand." said the Chinese man, "That is great, I can afford that 10 million Baht condo now"!
  19. I think that flyingtiger means that he pulled an all-night drinking session or started drinking very early in the morning. That being the reason for being under the influence of alcohol.
  20. What is your point? Why mention that this is the 2nd Brit this month? Are you implying that all Brits are child molesters? You know that there are child molesters of all races and creeds, do you? There are black child molesters. Would you dare imply that all blacks are child molesters?
