Surelynot Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 You do have to box clever, especially after about 11pm when the knuckle draggers start moving from bar to bar. I always cast a careful eye around whilst avoiding eye contact that might invite a conversation. Stick to the bar girls, they will always find your conversations interesting ??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scubascuba3 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 You get that in Pattaya too, last year there was this bogan character who showed me how to cut someone's throat, I could barely understand his English. Then there's the barfly types who bang on, the worse ones try to brag about money, I change the subject quick and they get deflated 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CraigInBangkok Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 When I go for a beer with my mates in bangers, I don't see any of these "nutters" you mention and I also don't get strangers wandering up to me trying to start conversations. I guess it depends on where you go for a beer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacessit Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I drink by myself, at my condo or in my GF's village. That way, no-one is trying to get into my head or my wallet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoreFarang Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I live in the middle of Bangkok since two decades. It definitely helps to be at least a little ding-dong, but it's not required. It seems you visited the wrong place. I never had anybody tell me all that <deleted>, not on one day and not on several days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I’m here meeting a lady friend), she was at work all day Sunday. met my first drinking companion at 12:30, he started banging on about COVID 19 being a hoax. I moved tables. next bloke I got chatting to turned out to be a Holocaust denier and a speed freak... I moved upstairs. the next bloke I had a chinwag with turned out to be a fraudster working for and Indian call center. I went back downstairs. finally the last bloke who struck up a conversation turned out to be skint and unable to pay for his beers. the cheeky sod asked me to sort him out, I refused and the police were called.. got me thinking is everyone in Bangkok off their bleedin nut or what ??? ???? At least you avoided the flat earther. I had one of them and good grief its the most intensely irritating conversation I have ever had. Oddly enough he tripped and fell as he was leaving the bar which made me think the earth was not that flat after all. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richard_smith237 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 As with this forum there are plenty of nutters out there. On this forum the anonymity allows for sufficient lubricance for people exude their true opinions. In bars the alcohol does the same. There are people on this forum with whom a beer and chat would be enjoyable. There are also the complete fruitcakes I’d avoid !!!! Differences are cool, interesting and lead to interesting conversations and polite debate. But some people are just 'too far gone’ for there to be any common ground. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nausea Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 No, just a bit weird. Happy guys don't volunteer. I volunteered cos it was a way of escaping a very bad situation where I was screwed career wise, healthwise, and relationship wise. A war on two fronts is bad enough, a war on 3 fronts is too much. Luckily it turned out OK, more through luck than judgement. Must admit though, a year or two in Thailand, is worth a lot in terms of experience, especially in the early days, before you get settled with the three dogs, two cats, and the crazy woman.
