More Druggings in Pattaya

Yet another Stickman reader was drugged this week, this time at a big name beer bar on Pattaya's Second Road. Fortunately he knew something was up and managed to make it back to his hotel room quickly, and alone, where he experienced all of the classic symptoms of being drugged.
He managed to sleep it off and eventually recovered with no loss other than one wasted holiday night. This shit is becoming widespread, prevalent in both Bangkok and Pattaya. It's a minefield out there.

Watchout for the Ladyboy Troll Near Soi Cowboy

There is a ladyboy who hangs out around the saphan loi in Bangkok most nights, waiting for drunks to come along. The bridge troll tries to follow them home. The troll (in spite of the nickname) is fairly cute and has a girlish voice. If you didn’t know about ladyboys you’d probably never guess. If you did know about them, but you were drunk enough you might be fooled.

I was drunk enough, but my radar still went off. When the bridge troll approached me I said quite directly that I don’t do ladyboys.

The troll still followed me. Up the bridge, across the bridge, and for perhaps two more blocks before he finally gave up and went back to guarding his bridge. It’s a sign how drunk I was that I let him follow me at all. Normally I would have shouted at him, and if that didn’t work, I would have punched him in the face. On Friday night (well, early Saturday morning) I actually spoke to him quite politely. Very unusual for me.

Asoke Place (Short Time) Near Soi Cowboy in Bangkok

For 300 odd baht you can rent a room at Asoke Place for three hours. Or you can stay longer for a bit more.
Longer stayers get better rooms than the short stayers.

Its only 1 minute away from Soi Cowboy, just walk from Cowboy into Soi 19 (the Country Road/ Tilac bar end) and turn right. Then its on the right, literally a few yards walk.

If you order drinks they give you a couple toothbrushes and toothpaste.
What more do you want after a few beer Changs?

A Story of the Japanese Eyesight at Baccara in Soi Cowboy


I was sat at the bar chatting to the cashier when a group of 5 Japanese customers walked in. Nothing unusual in that as Baccara is a favorite haunt of the Japanese.

What made it unusual was when they all took a small pair of binoculars out of their bags and started peering through them at the girls who were dancing only a few feet away ! Now, if the Japanese had bad eyesight I could forgive them, but they obviously had perfect eyesight. Then they started pointing at various girls and chatting amongst themselves. Whatever girl was pointed out then had 5 sets of eyes examining her body through binoculars. It was bizarre.

Note: If you want to leave a comment, please leave it in English so I can read it.
Also, if you click on the link below, you can read the rest of the story about how this Western guy made an absolute fool of himself.

Words of Wisdom from Dean and Khun

One of the good things about taking young Thai women abroad, women who have never been on a plane before, is that they do what you tell them - which, as you know, most Thai women don't. But in this case they had to because they hadn't flown before and weren't sure what to do. Of course I tried to be helpful. When the stewardess walked down the aisles checking to see that the seat-belts were fastened, and the Thai girls asked what the stewardesses were doing, I naturally pointed out that they were looking to see which man had the biggest dong.
-Dean Barrett

The truth is that there is no cool season in Bangkok; it is hot as hell nearly all of the time. Only rains every few days for an hour or two during the rainy season, and the rest of the time it is not any different than any other time of year--
-except that there are thousands of hot, horny young Thai gals waiting around to entertain you and nearly no customers here whatsoever.
