vinapu

exactly opposite to me , for some bed is important for a good sleep , for others a pillow takes precedence and it's best if boy is that pillow.

you are talking about room prices or Long Time boy tips?

You are taking serious risk if you follow underscored comment of vinapu or the likes as it may mean different thing to different people. Sometimes out of boredom I read comments on agoda , expedia or booking.com on places I stay and know very well and am amazed what people are saying. We human race like to generalize based on sometimes very cursory experience.

replace ' fancy hotels' with ' boy tips' and you find that subject is well discussed and rehearsed here. questions abound but both big spenders and cheap charlies stick to their questionable habits no matter what we say

not necessarily, it depends on many factors. I think I told that story before -once when in Bangkok I learned that one of my childhood friends is there on business so we met . He is very successful businessman so I expected he will be staying in something like Conrad or Mandarin while in fact he was in some very ordinary hotel in one of Sukhumvit 20 something sois. He told me that while he probably could afford to book all hotel for himself he decided on ordinary room as almost all his time was spent outside on meetings , functions etc. so all he need was relatively traffic free quiet street hotel with only ordinary amenities. So some of our neighbors on the plane in economy may be actually sitting on pile of cash while others at front may be people of modest means who decided to treat themselves once of every 12 years.

no, I actually see now that a447a could read my comment as accusatory if one focuses on first part of sentence quoted

MY LAUD APOLOGIES BUT THIS IS NOT WHAT I MEANT. I should underscore that part in original comment, like i did just now above. I actually remembered your hotel f***k story from few years ago, what I doubt and only that was that watching this would actually horrify you. Original narrative says nothing about you were horrified and rightly so. You probably don't realize that along with williewillie, anonone and Michael you have special place in my heart as long as this forum is concerned. When back in 2013 , after years of lurking here I made my first post ever and it was trip report I was so stressed about possible response that I sweared to myself if I receive even one negative comment I'm done with posting for good. Instead four saints mentioned above including you actually welcomed me and encouraged to continue which i do to this day and rest assured , not in order to offend anybody.

Drim took pains and time to write to us and most he got as reward are complains about lack of spaces to improve readability. Don't you guys understand his eyes were still misty recollecting that fabulous, fun and lust filled trip?

'Boys" in both cases, I'd not dismiss it as not much. But I agree , you caught discrepancy nicely

but for 100 baht a piece , boys rather loved it I guess

whom you are kidding ?, don't try to dent your credibility here

see Terry4, we have one already

I like your report too and can only imagine what next installment will be. I see good sign in fact he agreed to Long time and from your enthusiasm above I 'm sure you guys had fun , fun , fun

for Phnom Penh even that is expensive

including quite a few here on this forum

God forbid

perhaps he did not like to see you licking whatever his dentures left on that 12 inch knob ?

great report and an eye opener for people like me who don't dine upscale as I take advantage of your sentence " You can eat well cheaply in Thailand". You treated Bangkok Boy very well , no doubt he deserved and appreciated it.

try another walk by at, say, 23.00 and we will know for sure

I like a447a response better

isn't it what we do in Good Boys anyway ?

and even worse, some may bleed themselves to death out of financial necessity, finding selling their blood easy and lucrative without taking into consideration own health implications

Yes, when I find it I will post link to Bucky13 by PM in order not to derail this thread.

like with everything, expensive for some and reasonable for others, not long ago we had discussion whether 159 for chicken with cashew nuts at Cha Cha Cha was expensive or not and in another thread 1300 per meal in some luxury place was called reasonable. Certainly I sympathize with your friend as I consider every Thai hotel costing more than 50 USD expensive, doesn't mean I don't pay even more from time to time when I want to treat myself. Can easily imagine that some members would not even dream about going that low. We just have our own criteria and they are not always linear. Guy who is OK with splurging 1000 baht for a dish may still call 1500 a night digs on costly side and his friend may be exactly opposite.

unless we start throwing mud at each other I'd let thread die natural death
