Thais have no consideration for others. It's not just Songkran. Monks party's, funerals, weddings and national holidays are a fcuking nightmare where I live. They start at 5:30am and finish at midnight. Even if their nextdoor neighbour was on their deathbed, have a newborn or works nights they don't give 2 shits. It's the one thing that pisses me off the most here.
When my first born arrived back from the hospital there were elections coming up. Just about every other daylight hour the pick up tannoy would come around belting out the candidate to vote for. This caused my daughter to wake up. In the end I used to lob eggs at them.
