Tawan Bar in Bangkok Closed: Police Raid Reported
thaiophilus replied to reader's topic in Gay Thailand
False. "The Coriolis effect is so small that it plays no role in determining the direction in which water rotates as it exits from a draining sink or toilet. The Coriolis effect produces a measurable influence over huge distances and long periods of time, neither of which applies to the typical terrestrial bathroom. " https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/coriolis-effect/ Also, they got the direction wrong. -
Whataboutism noted.

quoting someone else's tired old trope of flawed logic. The reality is like the "fire triangle" we are taught in fire safety courses: to start a fire you need fuel, oxidizer and heat. Remove any one and the result is no fire. With firearms there's also a triangle: the weapon, the person firing it, and the person getting shot. Same logic applies, but ease of removal is different.

I did something no sex tourist has done before (maybe)
thaiophilus replied to abidismaili's topic in Gay Thailand
Belated "me too". On the admiral's peak I deduced that some people don't just go there to admire the view, as there were heaps of condom wrappers .strewed around the path like exotic flowers 😲 -
Undergarments are usually non-refundable once worn. I don't know what that does to your metaphor 🩲🙂

To deal with that, you need a friend in the Royal Thai Army. One sight of an Army hat covered with gold braid and the BiB will never trouble you again 🙂

and even in the "straight" ones you can often guess which performer the cameraman was really interested in 🤩.

I've always thought of it more as a "you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave" kind of place. And still those voices are calling from far away Wake me up in the middle of the night Just to hear them say Welcome to the bars of Boyztown Pattaya Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place) Such a lovely face Plenty of room in the bars of Boyztown Pattaya Any time of year (Any time of year) You can find it here ... Last thing I remember I was running for the door I had to find the passage back to the place I was before "Relax," said the night man "We are programmed to receive You can check-out any time you like But you can never leave!"

I wonder how many people could name the musical it's from, or who wrote it? (If it comes to that, I wonder how many people even know it's from a musical )

Or you could just learn four words: "left" (ซ้าย "sai") "right" (ขวา "khwa") "straight ahead" (ตรงไป "trong pai")

I hope you mean B1,500 🙂

If the police came to your door, would you come with a gun in hand?
thaiophilus replied to unicorn's topic in The Beer Bar
What is this "gun" of which you speak? Hint: not everybody in this forum is from the USA. (If someone started screaming at my door I wouldn't open it at all.) -

To answer the implied question in the title, one word will do: Irrelevant.

Thailand voted the World’s best country to visit in your lifetime
thaiophilus replied to reader's topic in The Beer Bar
So it is, but the post immediately above yours, to which I thought you were replying, was about "Asia's countries ranked". -

In someone else's? A Buddhist would probably say "which one?" -
