    • Another Thai TikTok account explained what happened in detail: apparently she arrived at 8 pm and tried to dash at midnight. The bar did not let her leave and explored various solutions with her, such as could she obtain money from her family or friends to settle the bill. This went on for hours. They agreed to wait until 8 am when banks opened. However at 8 am she refused to go to the bank and stated she did not actually have any money in the bank. They asked her to agree to work as a cleaner in the bar to pay off the debt. She said her family would not permit this. Finally out of frustration they told her to sell her hair and shaved her head to teach her a lesson (and so everyone could just gtfo and go home).
    • Edit: Entire post copied over from another forum  (Translated with Gemini) Source of the news in Thai For those who dont know what a "host bar" is A host bar (also called a host club) is a night entertainment venue where female patrons pay for the companionship, conversation, and attention of good-looking male staff known as "hosts.". Usually the payments are via "drinks" in exchange for companionship. Popular in Asia from Thailand to Japan. English Translation Host Bar Drama! Teenage girl skips out on nearly 60,000 baht tab; venue shaves her head to repay the debt, sparking split opinions among netizens. (Aug 28, 2026) — A heated debate has erupted online after the TikTok account “Ton-Or Pen Neung” shared a dramatic story under the hashtag #ShavedHeadAtHostBar. The post details the behavior of a teenage girl, believed to be under 20 years old, who frequented multiple host bars, ordered services, and repeatedly skipped out on paying her bills (“dine and dash”). Her actions left managers and staff at various venues well aware of her face. Caught after repeated unpaid tabs According to reports, the young woman had done this multiple times across several establishments. Most recently, she visited a host bar in the Pinklao area and attempted her usual tactic: ordering drinks and hiring male hosts to entertain her. However, when the bill arrived, she refused to pay. This time, the venue’s manager decided to take revenge and teach her a lesson. They had her sign a contract to sell her hair for 3,000 baht (~$85 USD) to offset the costs. However, the situation escalated when the staff didn't just give her a hair trim, but completely shaved her head bald "like a nun." Netizens divided in harsh critique After the story went viral, social media users split sharply into two camps: Sympathetic / Excessive force view: Arguing that while the girl committed an illegal act by dodging the bill, the venue had no legal right to commit physical battery or shave her head. They believe the establishment should have handled the situation strictly through legal channels by filing a police report. Satisfaction / "She deserved it" view: Arguing that the punishment was fitting because the girl intentionally scammed multiple businesses. Without a severe lesson, she would continue to cause trouble for other venues. Organizers step in Journalists reached out to Ms. Chalida Phalamat, President of the "Pen Neung" Group (Ton-Or). She stated that after posting the story to uncover the facts from both sides, the host bar manager reached out on the evening of August 25. The manager explained that the teenager had accrued a bill of nearly 60,000 baht (~$1,700 USD) and used a fake ID to enter the venue. The manager then forced her to sign a contract selling her hair for 3,000 baht to cover basic costs. The contract explicitly stated consent to cut and shave her hair. When Ton-Or questioned why they didn't hand her over to the police, and why a total head shave was necessary under the guise of "donating hair," the venue claimed the hair was given to an employee to donate, though they could not specify a location. Ton-Or added that while she understands the business has operating costs and hosts rely on income to support families, the venue's actions were illegal and excessive. Even if the girl consented under the circumstances, it is unknown if she was pressured. The venue has since issued a public apology through Ton-Or, acknowledging the manager acted out of anger, and stated they are contacting her family to provide compensation. Ton-Or also urged the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security (MSDHS) to inspect the girl's living conditions and mental state, noting she appears to be a minor who might suffer from mental health issues leading to her reckless behavior. She concluded with a warning: businesses should not place mob rule over the law, and bill dodgers should always be dealt with through official legal channels.
    • Are you by chance studying for the bar exam to become a British attorney?
    • Another one bites the dust! 😀 https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj06jgq62v9o "British right-wing political commentator Milo Yiannopoulos has been detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and is awaiting deportation. Yiannopoulos, 41, a former editor of Breitbart News and onetime employee of rapper Kanye West, appears to be held in Louisiana, according to ICE's inmate registry. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said he "was issued a final order of removal by an Immigration Judge on July 22, after failing to show up for his immigration hearing", and will remain in custody pending deportation... He posted in 2025: "We have got to deport millions and millions of people. Without that, nothing else matters. "Yiannopoulos also advocated on social media for "on the spot deportation for anyone who can't prove they are in the US legally"."
    • He's still at it. I received another e-mail today: "Hey! It's Sky- Firstly, I wanted to say THANK YOU to each of you who has decided to support me on Patreon! You have all really made this space something special that I cherish. A lot. SO MUCH. ❤️ So.. now for the not-so-fun updates (since I told you I would update you here first...). My car engine has recently died and I am out of a way to get around LA. I remember saying that if I was without a car, I would go home. I would leave LA. That's been a huge mental wall to break through and I'm so confused as to what to do next. I don't have the funds to fix my car engine or to get through this month's rent. But I'll figure it out. Sell what I can. Will make more posts etc., but wanted to open up about my delay with posts and updates... I have work tonight, but care about you all very much. Thank you for following me this far. :3 (more family/health stuff is happening too - might talk on that too, but for now... this is the most i can share <3)" Meanwhile, his Facebook and Instagram stories are full of posts of his partying all over the place, travels, etc. Wouldn't a person of even less than average intelligence be able to figure out he's BS'ing? Despite all of the evidence to the contrary, his begging must be fooling some people because he keeps doing it. https://www.instagram.com/yoskylerseymour/?hl=en https://www.facebook.com/YoSkylerSeymour/
