Pattaya Police

[Ergodyne 19]

There's one particular motorcycle policeman here in Pattaya who has a sign on his bike that reads "

"TRIFFIC POLICE PATTAYA" do you think he might mean TRAFFIC ? or has he been listening to 'Del boy' a bit too much !

Maybe he didn't know how to spell terrific

This is called arbitrary spelling and often very common on this board. With arbitrary spelling anything goes. The police man could have shortened it down further to trific and thereby reduced an eight-letter word to a six-letter word. He would have saved 25% in letter usage just for the one word and we still would have known he meant to say terrific.

I am sure he meant what the op said but I was just having some fun with it.

Then you are both wrong. The Thai cop really meant to write Teriffic Pattaya Police on his bike. The Thai cops have their head stuck so far up their own arse, they can hardly breathe. All that is important to them, is to look pretty in their tight brown uniforms covering their puny bodies and to relieve Farangs of money for infringements on their bikes or in their cars they did not commit.

 

Traffic and traffic rules are concepts they do not understand with their little heads and small brains. Walking around and showing off with their guns and looking into a mirror at every opportunity is what matters to them.
