While I am not a fan of tourist traps like Safari World on the outskirts of Bangkok, I have to admit the idea of orangutans facing off in a kickboxing fight has a certain appeal. Kinda like watching two octogenarians in Sunee Plaza fight over the boy they both want to off. Aljazeera has a great monkey Muay Thai video, though you’ll have to ignore their indignation over the sport. Just like you would when visiting Safari World.
Everyone loves a man in uniform, or at least a man in uniform taking his uniform off, but is this really Thailand’s sexiest security guard?
In case you missed it, ESPN’s annual Body Issue featuring popular athletes in the buff came out this week. (You’ll have to click through past the fish.) And all of a sudden the Niners look like a team I could get behind.
Olympic Gold Medallist diver Matthew Mitcham didn’t get selected as one of ESPN’s featured naked jocks, but did raise a grand by auctioning off his dirty underwear.
Travel & Leisure Magazine’s readers have voted Bangkok as #1 of The World’s Best Cities for 2013. Huh. And Pattaya didn’t make the list. Imagine that.
It doesn’t matter how well you get along with your parents in China. A new law requires that you visit them frequently and pay for their upkeep. Couldn’t they just use old folks homes like we do in the U.S.?
Remember that Life Cereal commercial “Give it to Mikey, he’ll eat anything’? Well, the Chinese will eat anything too. Including Mikey. And anything else that ever breathed, or even looked like it once moved. Including the popular 1,000 year egg, a common delicacy. But there’s something rotten in the state of Beijing, and those puppies are now toxic. As though they weren’t before. But then adding eggs to your folks’ diet could alleviate that new burden on your budget.
When it comes to your transportation options for ending it all there is no need to fly off to Bangkok to suffer Death By Taxi. Whipping it out in a subway tunnel in New York will do the trick just as nicely.
Considering that the average Pattaya visitor/sexpat is a bottomless stomach of want, you’d think local food vendors would know better than to make the fatal error of skimping on condiments.
Who knew the shape of the world was so heavily influenced by gay lovers throughout history? Love, Historically, is a slideshow featuring the artwork of Ryan Grant that puts a gay slant on history. Thanks to the movie 300, I knew how gay things were in ancient Sparta, but didn’t know there was someone credited with ‘bringing’ homosexuality to Japan.

I like the historical drawings very much. Very well done.
I was also reading a few of the comments made by some of those that viewed the drawings, and it is amazing to me how many people there are out there who find it necessary to make nasty, negative comments on such things. My feeling is that if I look at something and don’t like it, I just usually forget it and move on (don’t comment). And if I do comment, I try to be constructive (not offensive). Maybe taking the time to trash somebody else’s work is really, really important to those “people”. I always think, however, that the negative, nasty comments tell me more about the person commenting, then about whatever is being discussed.

I rarely read comments so I had to go back and skim through those posted on this article. Geeze. You’d think the artists had intended his work as the definitive record on homosexuality through history. What’s that saying that equates opinions to assholes again?

The security guard is cute!
There are even some cute tuk-tuk drivers in Silom, of course they just think I want to hire them as driver when I look at them, maybe I should ask them if they know a short-time hotel in the area and if they can take me there (and hope they get the message).

Give your destination as a gay bar or gay bar area, and then ask if he wants to join you . . . you might be surprised on how many will take you up on your offer.

Hmmm….from a Tuk Tuk to a Fuk Fuk in three easy drinks?
Bangkokbois said:
2 if you are lucky!
ChristianPFC said:
Are you speaking of experience or is this just an assumption?
Bangkokbois said:
Experience. Though the two times I got lucky were not with a regular taxi. Once with a tuk tuk driver, once with a motorcycle taxi driver.
