Displayed prices are for multiple nights. Check the site for price per night. I see hostels starting at 200b/day and hotels from 500b/day on agoda.

  1. It's "khrap" if you are a guy and "ka" if you are a lady or a ladyboy. It doesn't depend on who you are talking to, it depends on who you are. Geez. And, as to your OP, I've been in tons of gogos, and I still don't know what kind of music you are asking for.
  2. I've never checked. I guess I'm going to be a statistic. ffs (as you say), why do you worry so much?
  3. Not at all. I don't much care for baseball personally.
  4. I removed the beginnings of a threadfuck and follow on posts. Let's try to keep these sports topics on topic without bringing in silly nationalism.
  5. I've bought 3 office chairs that looked okay, but fell apart before a year was out. Wheels fall off, springs pop out, lift/drop stops working...the ones I've bought just can't last with use. I've been using a wooden dinner chair lately, and though my posture and back muscles are feeling the pain, at least it holds up to daily use. A new, good quality chair would be a real boon.
  6. Frosty, if you find a good chair at a good price, let us know. I'd be up for one too.
  7. Okay now I'll make it a point to go find out from some gogo Dj where they get their music. Papillon can you suggest which gogos have that style you want? I'm thinking Casanovy is a good choice.
  8. Why would you think that, you ignorant cunt spider? If you read the story and when it was posted, I was on a gogo bar crawl at the time. Oh, and your Thai IS shit. And, my impression (though not supported by anything other than a gestalt view), is that the gogo music, what some people call "car alarm" noise, is not produced by Thais, but is in fact, a product of European wannabe DJs. But, I could be wrong on that. But, your Thai is shit because you can't tell the difference between men and women speaking. That's a fact.
  9. Using Subs-N-Suds as an example, one of the food vendors available through WOW, a Cuban Sub sells for 210b at the restaurant (or delivered by them), and WOW sells it for 325, an additional 115b or 55% markup. Subs-N-Suds deliver for free, WOW delivers for 115b over retail price, not to mention any possible discount provided by the food vendor to WOW. When WOW first started, I think they were fairly competitive with the pricing at the venue, but I'd say that's not the case now. Still, for those places that do not deliver, the convenience of ordering from the home is sometimes worth the extra charge. But, it's good to know what the markup is on something you can sometimes have delivered for free by contacting the food vendor itself.
  10. For somebody who tries to let all and sundry know how many people he knows and is mates with, and for someone who claims to spend so much time in Thailand over the years, months at a time, you really should know that saying "kop kun kah" means you're either a female or a ladyboy...or somebody who learned a little bit of Thai from bar girls and didn't bother to learn anymore. As to the original question, gogos play different styles of music, so which style are you asking for? Thai techno? That's not what they play normally.
  11. Are you ladyboy?
  12. I never had any problems with tap water in Pattaya. I use it to brush my teeth, rinse my mouth, and make coffee.
  13. Since PL is back up, and the thread is getting a bit edgy, I'm going to close it.
  14. Good question. I meet lots of people who say they never post, but are on this board. And, of the top posters, I have met a few, but none (that I can recall) are regulars in any way. So, in answer to your very good question, I think there is little, if any, correlation between post frequency and bar presence. My gut feeling is that, by and large, a lurker is more likely to be a customer in a bar represented by a forum, at least initially. Most people are timid about jumping into a thread where all the posters are old hands. Lurkers definitely have their place in the ecology of boards. If nobody reads posts except those who want to reply to them, it's a very small audience. .
  15. I use a Nexus One (smart phone) to monitor the board when I am out and about. Just view new posts once in a while to keep up.
  16. I too am a reader of PL. Pastry had only recently brokered an agreement where both Alex and I were restored posting rights on our respective boards, and I was looking for a cooling of animosity that had been brewing for the past couple of years, primarily IMHO, based on unfounded or one-sided gossip, misunderstandings, or lack of agreement on what boards were about. I log into PL every day. It's another group with another set of viewpoints, and I think its closure was a mistake. Sure, moderating a board is difficult, troubling at times, and frustrating. It's hard to let people who you think are spouting bullshit to keep posting when you have the power to silence them. It's tempting to do so, but you have to remember that you are dealing with people from different cultures, age groups, points of view, and that your opinion is just one of many. It's a sobering responsibility. I can't get rid of everyone who I don't agree with, because that ensures that no one feels safe to post and invest their effort into adding input to the board. So, I say to Alex/mulphy, chill out, step back and understand that there are many points of view, but do your best to share with your audience your knowledge and opinions, but expect that some will disagree with you. If this makes no sense, I'm sorry. I just came back from a 2 for 1 gogo crawl, and I'm doing my best to see one keyboard.
  17. I disagree. Give us the name or number of any taxi that will meet you at the airport and take you to Pattaya for less than 1000b. Pang maak...I call bullshit. 800b is the basic bottom price to go to the airport (no parking required).
  18. I'm not surprised by that at all.
  19. The webcam site is not part of pattayatalk at all. So if you want to log in, you need to re-register with a userid and email.
  20. For what it's worth, the original poster is posting from Chonburi province.
  21. I'm due for renewal of my five year licence(s) soon myself, so this post is quite useful for me. Thank you
  22. What frostfire said. Not a problem at all. Thanks for asking
  23. He claims a lot of things. You can't believe everything you read, especially on the internet. But you already knew that!
  24. You should have googled it after all, since it's definitely not blocked arteries!
