My ex pat mate was telling me there was a huge brawl outside Insomnia involving Farangs,Thai and Arabs on Xmas eve and that got me thinking.
Is there any street in the world where so much testosterone flies about as Walking St ?
We have all seen the big steroid body builders fresh out of Tony's Gym, the English football hooligans with there Burberry caps and beer bellies, the guys who have spent a week learning Muay Thai and have the t shirt to prove it, the drunken idiots who think 10 bottles of Chang turns them into Mike Tyson, the Large Russians who think walking through you instead of around you is perfectly acceptable, the mad Arabs driven insane by lust and hatred at the same time. Then we also have most of the worlds special forces living in Pattaya as well as top london gangsters.
Yep its all there in Fun City.
What i find funny and puzzling is the need to swagger up and down sticking your chest out in a tight t shirt or none at all carrying a couple of imaginary carpets under your arms and barging into people. Who are they trying to impress ? Either themselves , other men or Thai females. Either way its a sad way to spend your holiday.
