- China does not have a monopoly on kicking ass.
- Much ass is kicked in Thailand, apparently.
- Especially by this one dude named Tony Jaa
- There are also elephants, and if you are good enough at kicking ass, the elephant will do your bidding.
- Buddhists.
- Probably some other stuff, although maybe not: Asian cultures have a different relationship with diversity than we in the West have acquired lately.
- They’re not fond of it.
- In Ong Bak 2, we learned that Thailand had a past.
- The first film was set in the present.
- We can therefore infer that time’s progression exists in Thailand.
- (I may be clutching at straws here: these movies were partially ruined by my complete ignorance of Thai culture or history. I mean: you all saw how limited my knowledge of China was, but at least I can find the fucker on a map. Beyond “Southeast Asia,” I might as well be throwing a dart and hoping to hit Thailand.)
- Thailand is like many countries in that there are comic relief characters.
- It rains in Thailand, but only when something bad has happened to the main character.
- On any given day in Bangkok, around 10% of the city’s inhabitants are soft-spoken martial arts masters sent from their small villages to retrieve mystic idols or seek revenge.
- The Thai language is sub-titled.
- Actually, if you watch a lot of movies where the plot is “Asian guy hits other Asian guy in the face, repeat” then you usually hear Chinese, so the Thai is a nice switch.
- I’m praying that their language is actually called Thai, because that is something you get sent right to the Problem Attic for fucking up.
- I might have understated the elephants.
- Fucking elephants, man.
- I have seen two movies about Thailand, and one of them was chockfull of elephants.
- We can thus extrapolate that if you were in Thailand, you would have a 50% chance of seeing an elephant every time you opened your eyes.
- That’s math, people.
- Instead of cabs, they have jeepneys or tuk-tuks or some other foreign-named thing: elongated three-wheelers souped up for maximum quickness and prone to killing whole extended families every third shift.
- They’re the kind of thing that cry out for a chase scene.
- Neither the safety regulations nor the special effects of Thailand are the equivalent of ours.
- Which really isn’t a problem: in fact, it makes for a better movie when the director can wantonly endanger his actors.
- You can dangle guys off bridges, drive cars at them real fast, try to drown them: Thailand does not have an OSHA.
- Physical stereotyping is ugly and I don’t engage in it, but I will say that the phrase “he’s the dark-haired guy” is next to useless in Thailand.
- The Thai method of punching one another in the face is similar to kung fu, but with more knee and elbow strikes.
- It’s not that different: there are only so many ways to kick someone in the face.
- Also the same: fighting styles must be announced.
- “Monkey fucks a football!”
- “Burping ferret!”
- “The moon goes to the bathroom!”
- “DONKEY-STYLE, MOTHERFUCKER!”
- And so on.
- In Thailand, holiness is related to fucked-up earlobes.
- Overall, they’re just aces, but they put that peanut sauce on everything and I just can’t even with it.

Indonesians do peanut sauce better than the Thai.
Fact.
I wish the US immigration policy was food based.

Yes, i am 12 years old……..
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
When I was about 8 years old I stayed at my Uncle Terry’s house in the pinelands of NJ. Among the very powerful, loaded handguns and 30 odd 6 rifles, I also came across SEVERAL 12″ or better Thai sticks while going through his drawers. FACT!
not a bad read http://thaistickbook.com uncle terry was a part of history
If you had hurt yourself or others with one of the guns, the reefer would have been blamed.

Motorhead fan?
Take a close look at that mustache.. I call mustache extensions.
I’m with you Tor, something is not right with that stache. …or the fact that I have an entire stash of Lemme photos on my computer
I think that’s his wax figure, geniuses.
I think you might be right….
Everyday I learn something new when I visit this blog. Didn’t know what “Reefer Madness” was, but from the posters, I couldn’t tell whether they were promoting or condemning pot. All the “high school” girls in the posters look like full-grown women. People seem to forget that we’re kids.
I also am not nearly as smart as I thought I was. It’s… Refreshing.
You are no kid my friend. More like a young person possessed by a drunken sailor’s ghost. hahahaha
And what does one do with a drunken sailor, particularly early in the morning?
Shave his belly with a rusty razor?
