Glitterman Speaks About Alcohol

[glitterman 0]

i am surprised nobody bothered with my photo request.

what i am going to talk about is alcohol ,they say 'money is the root of all evil' i say 'alcohol is'. i have not touched a single drop of alcohol for twenty years, i could if i wanted to , there is nothing wrong with my body and all this exercise through cycling and swimming means i am fitter than all of you, [ i also have never smoked and never taken any form of drugs in my life ] i dont drink because im rebelling against alcohol and the social structure of it and the damage it does. It always amuses me how a man can drink down his pint of beer and then slam his empty glass on the table with a growling ''aaaaahhhh'', as if to say 'look im a real man, ive drunk all this liquid'. RUBBISH the only thing manly about that is that you were brave enough to drink a liquid that was exactly the same colour and shade as urine [which is possibly how the term 'Pissheads' came about]. or to look at it in another way; if an alien from another planet were to land on earth and see all these peolple drinking alcohol then the alien would believe that humans needed to drink alcohol to survive and without it the humans race would die . i dont need alcohol to have a good time , and i believe the world would be a much better place without it, its an obvious fact that more people would be still alive today if it were not for that foul liquid. I come from Wimbledon in London ,England ,where an old friend of mine the movie star actor Oliver Reed was also born and raised and lived a few houses away, he died from alcohol a decade ago, and more recently a girlfriend of mine died in a road accident with a drunk driver, and a while ago an english drunkard [yes they have arrived again] tried to attempt to get on board my show bike, despite the fact the ex-passenger seat has a large cassette player on it.

im not going to change anyones point of view with this, but i do say this Songran please be carefull as you could be the next one in an accident. i imagine that seeing alot of my audience are located in bars that i wont get the cheerfull reception i am used to anymore when i do my round, but thats okay, even if i save just one life this Songran then its worth it.

Hi Glitterman

Welcome to the board, i too am a little surprised no one has posted or sent pics of you, there are a few here you should be able to find and copy from previous posts about you.

I know Wimbledon, as an ex-pro musician i have toured extensively and played the theatre there a few times.

Quote - " It always amuses me how a man can drink down his pint of beer and then slam his empty glass on the table with a growling ''aaaaahhhh'', as if to say 'look im a real man, ive drunk all this liquid'

I must admit i do enjoy a pint sometimes ( though there are not many places here that serve 'pints' )

Although that mind set may be true at times, i found that after a busy, hectic day, or several hours on a tour bus, a stop at a watering hole for a beer was always very welcome, my colleagues and i have frequently voiced the "aaaaahhhh" you mention, usually followed by " I needed that " but that is out of welcome refreshment not some primevil display of 'manhood' I agree there is an element who display that behaviour, going out purely with the intention of 'getting pissed'. For me, and, i believe, quite a few others, this is not the case, we enjoy the taste of the 'liquid', the inebriation is a side effect, not the primary motive, ANY refreshing drink at the time it was most needed, would evoke the same 'aaaaahhhh' reaction.

I heartily agree that Alcohol induced behaviour is the cause of many fatalities during this period of madness, but i feel there is nothing that can be done about it. Ban alcohol for the week ? impossible to enforce, people would just stock up beforehand. I'm sorry but there are just too many people who consider it 'clever / funny' to throw iced water into the face of a motorcycle rider.

I read somewhere that there were more fatalities during the first day this year than the whole period last year

G'man you sound half sensible and I'm sure you may have something of interest to say to some folk here, but please could you use paragraphs? Your diatribe account is just not the pleasure it could be to read when presented thus.

 

Also please don't lose heart when we all don't fall over ourselves bothering with your photo request........ it may come as a suprise to you but there's an awful lot of folk in Pattaya think you have a large number of screws loose and just are not interested in you. I know, dreadful, innit!

[Sailfast 503]

Me thinks the real glitterman would use punctuation and paragraphs.

 

Sorry, but I'm betting this is a wind up. If it's not I'll eat crow.

He did the same as this on Thai Visa. He started off by giving accounts of how he built his bike and made his clothes etc and then extended it to lectures from the pulpit type stuff. Eventually threw his teddy in the corner .....

 

"This city is full of rentable ladies and grumpy old men who feed on these girls, and BUY their friendship, false love, and other such unmentionable services ,thats VERY SAD. [i have never paid for it in my life, and never intend to i am proud to say] There also appears to be many grumpy old men lurking in the shadows of this forum, ready to sink their clicking dentures into any new topic, and tear it apart, especially if it is written by a young royal rebel with a cause, such as me. These grumpy old men are the sort of characters that i would not bother speaking to on the 'outside', so therefore see no more reason waisting money on them in the internet shops. So i have decided to temporarily abandon the forum for a while and concentrate on the better 'outside' audience.

Pattayas rude grumpy old men can and WILL reply to this and it will result in yet another thread closure of the rare behind the scenes look at Pattayas first and only celebrity ,and the most photographed expat in the history of Thailand, in the 'Glitterman speaks' series, exclusive only to THaivisa.com

I wont be reading any replies to this so i wont have your grump old heads executed.....this time. But know this next time you shall be hung, drawn and quartered and your heads be stuck upon a spike on top of the entrance to London Bridge for all to see and the ravens to eat.

I've found that damn near nothing compares to the first beer of the day.

Proletarian Andy Cap speaks about alcohol....

 

I had a nice Kwak beer in the proper glass around lunchtime. Now the sun is thinking about setting I'm going to have a Duvel but in a Leffe glass. You can't have everything.

 

And it's about time I unlocked my bike from the garden fence. Maybe tomorrow because I've had a little alcohol today. Oh no, I've got to go to work tomorrow - damn it!

 

Wehey!

Andy Cap

 

P.S. Sorry, nothing about Pattaya in my post - but nothing in the OP either.

Given that, sounds as if the 'picture' request was just someones way of walking around what they really want to say.

 

He and Nok should get together, though they may already be................

If you know Oliver Reed you might know Eric who died here in Pattaya,sleeping in a mates car and it was too hot to survive.This was about 5 years ago,very tragic

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NUTTER

The beer is best served a little later on a hot day!

gotta say I think you picked the wrong town if you wanted to avoid alcohol abuse, LOL

Town? he picked the wrong world!

 

A lot of bad comes from alcohol. A lot of bad comes from all out of control personal vices including smoking, overeating, gambling and mongering. There are the so called Seven Deadly Sins as you may recall: pride, greed, envy, wrath, lust, gluttony and sloth. Alcoholism falls under gluttony btw.

 

Dante' thought it all had to do with love, curiously:

 

"Perverted Love: Pride, Envy, Wrath/Anger

Insufficient Love: Sloth

Excessive Love of Earthly Goods: Avarice/Greed, Gluttony, Lust"

 

From http://whitestonejournal.com/index.php/seven-deadly-sins

 

We tried in America to ban the Devil's brew. It lead to the Mafia (organized crime) and illegal alcohol and other vices controlled by them. Hey, we wouldn't have a Las Vegas without Prohibition!

 

Human's seem to have a need to escape from reality. It is not only alcohol. Kids sniff glue and inhale other toxic fumes. In the 1960s we had the Drug Culture begin which has never dissipated

 

In the end, a human being chooses his life, for good or ill. Having had two parents die from smoking related illness but neither from alcohol, I have my own bias. Every day I hear my boss (younger than me) coughing his lungs out. As long as he is not blowing his smoke in my asthmatic direction (thanks mom and dad), it is his choice. As long as a person is not drinking or driving, etc. it is their choice.

 

imho live your life and do not be your brother's keeper!

I can't believe that some of you responded to this drivel.

Yes, why did you?

Sounds like Glitterman had a bad alcohol problem 20 years ago, and burnt a few too many brain cells into the bargain. Well, just look at him now, peddling his golden pimp ride around town. I always figured there was something wrong with the boy.

 

He’s got a phobia against TV’s, yet he sits for hours at a PC screen to write his dribble!

 

He’s got something against ‘Grumpy Old Men’ who as he puts it, ‘feeds of the girls’, not realizing it’s the grumpy old men that’s doing the feeding, and the girls that’s doing the eating.

 

He is expecting aliens from outer space to come down and visit Pattaya, just to see how these grumpy old men are acting up, says a lot about his mentality, and judging by his shiny suit, he wants to be an astronaut when he eventually grows up.

 

Judging by his posts, why doesn’t he realize that he is a ‘Grumpy Young Man’, and eventually he will grow old, and eventually wallow in his own misery.

 

He brags about being a recluse for 8 years, but why does he not go the whole hog, and trade in his shiny suit and fancy bicycle, for the robes of a monk and a pair of sandals, and go and live in a monastery some where in the wilderness, and do it properly. Maybe he will get his head straightened out.

 

This boy is entitled to his own opinion, but being born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and likes the smell of his own shit, is not entitled to shove it down everyone else’s throat, as he seems to know nothing about the real world. Let him hold down a real job, earn his own living, and see how hard life can really be, instead of living off daddy’s money, and posing around town on his shiny, shiny shit.

 

He seems to think there’s a halo above his head, from all the good he brings to Pattaya. But why doesn’t he donate daddy’s money to a local charity, instead of buying expensive feathers for his bicycle. And with all his free time he has in the past several years ponsing about in his get-up, I have yet to hear him say about volunteering his free time to a charitable project.

 

Glitterman, earning those smiles around town doesn’t feed or cloth anyone that needs it, and the reality is, the majority of those smiles are saying, “Who the fuck is that silly twat!”

 

Welcome too the real world some day!
