That's a lot of booger sugar he ingested. If just one of those pellets leaked, he would have blasted off on a one-way ticket to never-never land. -

What a dope... -
Apparently he's a real hothead, but he deserves his day in court. If he confesses or if he's convicted, jail then deportation would be more than appropriate.

South Korean YouTuber sparks tuk tuk fare controversy in Thailand
gjoo888 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Same. My Thai wife can almost always get a good price. I tell friends that visit to take a tuk-tuk once for the novelty, then avoid them like the plague unless you don't mind paying the inevitable inflated price or being taken somewhere the driver gets a commission. Not to defend the grifter overcharging, but even the "tourist" price is still dirt cheap compared to taxi prices in most people's home countries. -

Too much information. -
Pattaya Bar Worker Allegedly Kidnapped by Group of Men
gjoo888 replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
When someone is kidnapped, why conceal her identity? This is not the time to "protect her privacy." You would think at least a picture of her would help in case she was spotted at a gas station, 7-11, etc.. In my home country, when somone is kidnapped, the victime's name and picture is shown everywhere possible in hopes that someone will see her and report it to the police. -
I'm not much of a pot smoker, but a couple of puffs before bed sure helps me fall asleep faster and sleep longer.

The weaker Baht is at least helping with inflation here. I think I can speak for most people who receive monthly income from overseas, we're not complaing. -

Me too. I've been riding a motorbike for over 18 years here, and ALWAYS wear my helmet, even for the two minute ride to 7-11. -

In San Francisco, they make the naked guys carry towels to sit on, to avoid skid marks on chairs. -

In the US, even after they rob you, there's still a decent chance they'll shoot you. -
Road Rage Incident Leads to Shooting, Leaving One Injured in Bangkok
gjoo888 replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
I'm from California where this type of thing is an everyday occurrence, I learned a long time ago that honking or gesturing at other drivers can and will get you killed. Best just to let it go, and not worth dying for.
