A favorite on /r/askreddit, or at least it seems that way to me.

I only have one, and it's not very entertaining.

I was on a bus going to work. A few stops before mine the bus gets cut off by another bus. The driver started yelling at the other driver then pulled over and got out of the bus to, I assume, escalate the conflict. We were near my stop anyway, so I got off before things could get hairy.

I loved my time in Chiang Mai, I could totally imagine this happening

Superb city. Absolutely loved it there. Was not a fan of Bangkok tbh but CM was great.

This little event (edit: it wasn't little actually, bad description, there were throngs there) was really in the arse end of nowhere. Absolutely fantastic experience. I threw a few words of Thai at one guy when trying to find the toilet and we instantly became besties.

Love the Thais generally. They're so kind and patient.

Absolutely. I arrived thinking the name “land of smiles” was just tourist marketing but it’s completely true. I enjoyed having a pint of Guinness in the random “Irish” pub in CM too. It was too novel not to.

[–] khannie@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Haha. How was the pint? The rule is that Guinness usually doesn't travel well. I don't go to the pub very often but always drink Guinness when I do but I find it grand abroad tbh.

One of my best memories of CM was a BBQ place that was incredible. Nom nom nom nom nom.
