The Sad and Pathetic state of clubs in Thailand

[Guest]

Agree. Went to Guess Bar last week after reading all of the posts. It was great.

OK, maybe not the selection of Cascades, but the trade-offs are well worth it.

Damn, Doug convinced me...I'm a true believer now...No more Nana...I'll never see the Guess Bar...First stop MBK...Eat some shit food...fuck a phone and get run over by school kids on their way up to play video games...That sounds like more fun than this old shit can handle...Do you recommend a taxi or a tuk-tuk...

Well it seems to be ramping up nicely now - 17 staff by the end of this week and still Jay is on the lookout for girls with tits, personality and a non Nana background. all the LB's seem happy enough whenever I talk to them.

LOL - I like Guess bar but a few more staff and she may end up needing a bigger bar!

I doubt it - what she has realised is that with her giving the girls one day off a week, she is always down 2/3 a day and then with barfines, sickness, etc - she loses couple more. In reality except on party nights, you will be hard pressed to see that many in the bar at any one time.

doug. i will not debate your opinions about clubs in bangkok. most of what you wrote made little sense
to me. what i want to suggest to you is that the
disrespectful treatment that you seem to have
encountered and must be the source of your angers
may have been a result of your own language and behavior in these clubs. your rant is filled with the f---
word. if i find it boorish and stupid imagine how thais
respond. let me educate you about something my
friend. there are 2 serious lapses of behavior by
faranges which will completely allianate thai people.
one is any disrespect for the monarchy. the 2cd is
the use of anglo-saxon swears words. thais to not
tolerate either. clean up your languange and you might have a bit of fun in thailand.

Spot on mate.

But this is all too logical for Doug. And logic isn€™t part of his persona it seems.

Let€™s see now.

1. He expects to get clean room for $10.00 even though he can spend a few extra bucks down the road to get a cleaner hotel.

2. He thinks guys who take girls home are stupid and I would imagine same applies to guys who bring them back to their hotel.

3. Would have you believe that you sit on a toilet in any bar in NEP.

4. Anything you purchase in LOS you multiply by 4 and then you convert to US$ to get an idea of how much you really paid for it.

5. He expects to get free bar fines as the girls don€™t get paid.

6. And he is such a stud he can pick up at MBK any time.

These are all his words so don€™t expect him to take heed of what you say.

Oh btw the way Doug, when I say blah blah blah it does not mean I agree with you. I over estimated you. I thought surely you can figure that I mean what you say is full of it and just repeating same old that does not make sense.

Now here is a challenge for you Doug. Can you prove that girls don€™t get paid? And I know about the fines and the quotas. And also don€™t you think the girls want you to buy drinks for them as they know they get a cut? More drinks more money for them. And also tell me where you can get a beer as high as 190bt in NEP? And what are the similar places I can get four times less the going rate for a beer? And just so we are sure on the figure that is for 50bt giving you the benefit of the doubt that you can buy a beer for 190bt.

I will be waiting.

And also I am not that big a fan of NEP. It just serves a purpose. Sometimes I take advantage of that. And you know what? I enjoy it sometimes too.

Best Regards.

PS the only thing you got right in your reply to me was that I am starved for Ladyboy arse.

Doug, what do you find that is agreeable in Thailand, it seems you came to Thailand for something but now you want it to be like home.
 I have often wondered about people who say only if the Thais would do it this way or that way, meaning the way we do it at home, they would be better off. It appears their system works for them, wheather it is the government or how they run their bars, they will not change for us   no matterhow much we whine

(moe666 @ Dec. 14 2006,02:32) Doug, what do you find that is agreeable in Thailand...

Funny... That was my next question.

[coxy277]

i think that we all injoy the sleezy side thats why we go there in the first place, but what i think is bad is that the ladyboys mainly the super stars , or the I want you to be my b/f now and give me loads of money type, are all getting a bit big for there boots as in very rude and somtimes agressive i think this is down to THEM BEING SPOILT

Just having a bit of fun. I'm not even taking myself seriously, which makes me wonder why some people are getting so bent.

I mean, for fuck's sake, I'm applying lame-ass pseudo-economic theories to go-go bars, how can you guys possibly take me seriously?

Of course, I am annoyed with Nana, and I enjoy ranting about it because it is a shitpit and it DESERVES all the shit it gets. And anyone who defends Nana is either disagreeing for the sake of being contrary or enjoys being shit on too.

But I'm not on a fucking crusade either. I get my action the way it pleases me to do so, and how you guys do it is up to you. Different strokes for different dicks, ya know?




Oh, and if Thais can't tolerate Western profanity, then how come I hear profanity-laced hip-hop music being played on the radio (uneditted) all the time?

[Tomcat]

I doubt if anyone likes getting shit on .

With a few exceptions you dont see that many miserable faces in Nana and it seems to get enough repeat business. I would say of people that actually use the bars the satisfaction rate is very high. Most guys understand that its a sex park and all that goes with that type of industry.

Long Live Nana

[dummy_plug]

Agreed.

This is true, and quite amusing! If only they knew what kind of stuff they were broadcasting sometimes!

Same goes with the wording on the T-shirts...

I saw a family in the mall a couple of years back and the 8 year old girl had the slogan "I look better naked!"

I'm sure her parents would have thought twice about that purchase if they had known!
