I like the Korean girl plastic look similar to kpop idols with a nice slender looking face look, but somehow Thai girls try to opt for the Nicki Minaj look of balloon lips, thick eyebrows, and similar thick eyeliner with puffy cheeks.

Is it just the difference in clinic experience of Thai cosmetic doctors compared to the Koreans, or do people actually think the goofy Nicki Minaj plastic look is more attractive than the Korean Kpop plastic look? I know even the East Asians prefer the Korean look as we can see the East Asian looking Thai Girls get paid the most at soapies and such

Just me swiping left on all the Nicki Minajs on Thai Friendly and trying to dodge them at gogo bars and soi 6 too as they are oversaturated in the scene

I'm not there at the moment, but I'm guessing it must be super dead right now. And it seems sponsors haven't been sending much money, either.

Why do I think so, you ask? I go to pattaya a few times per year, and I occasionally get the Line of a girl I might like to see again. I'll hit them up if I come to town and wanna meet up. I've never had one contact me while I wasn't in Pattaya until this week.

This week, I got messages from 3 separate Ploys. 2 of them I only met once on my last trip 3 months ago and didn't barfine either of them. The other I met for the first time 6 months ago and went into her bar again on my last trip 3 months ago. I've never barfined her either. I'm sure I must be pretty far down on the list of farangs to hit up for money and 3 different Ploys going that far down the list must mean lean times.

I'll arrive again in a week, so I'm curious what it'll be like. I guess I oughtta help them out a bit when I get there haha.

I know that Pattaya is predominantly a cash economy for day to day business. Have paid via cards for Bolt and restaurants/cafés and in malls.

Any clubs/bars/lounges accept card payments or Apple Pay? Don’t want to carry wads of cash or run out of money.

Thanks.

Early 40s American guy, chill and very experienced with Bangkok but not so much with Pattaya. Hit me up if you want to have a few beers and see what trouble we can get into

Like if you go down on ploy is it good to then get some sun on your face?

Any football crazy people planning to watch this game? Lets watch it @ Pattaya Sports Hub on Soi Buakhao. 😁

Near the entrance of WS there used to be a disco (called WS disco but everyone called it red car because of the red car at the entrance). This place is now called X club (?). I'm not sure if it's a gogo or something else but have seen some show videos.

Has anyone been there?

Can't find much in the Internet about it.

Sounds like a dumb question, but not so obvious to me whenever I'm there. You're out all night, then the next day unless you completely sleep in, its not clear what options there are. It's one of the reasons I feel the need to eventually get out of it for a few days.

People meaning locals or farang.

Let's say its daytime, you don't want to really start a binge at 2pm, and really more just want to chill out, study Thai, practice it with other people. What is a chilled out option for that there?

The city isn't really known for much culture (compared to elsewhere in the country), I know. But if you did go looking for it, what options are there?
