It's against the law in Thailand to leave your house not wearing underwear...
I find this simply fascinating...Thailand...home of industry standards surrounding child sweat shops...human trafficking...sex slaves and mail-order brides of Asian Frankenstein's...what possible good does enforcing the wearing of underwear outside the house present...I for one will NOT be visiting Thailand anytime soon...the last thing I wanna do is end up on an episode of LOCKED UP ABROAD...I can just see it now...the plane lands...everyone disembarks...gets in line for customs inspections...they screen my baggage...and some tyrant of Thailand's TSA notices there isn't a single undergarment apparent in my luggage...I get pulled out of line...taken to some dark back room...strip searched...and jailed for NOT having underwear on...I get locked up...it takes 5 years to finally get someone from the American Embassy involved...I get a trial date...get convicted...sentenced to 25 years...decades float by while appeal after appeal gets rejected...I get released 27 years later for good behavior...and before I can make it safely on a plane they arrest me again for NOT buying underwear and putting them on before going to the airport...NOT how I envision spending my remaining years...from what I can gather...the donning of underwear prior to exiting a personal abode in Thailand is equivalent to being Big- Eared...Empty Headed...retarded...and winning the Presidency...it does NOTHING but confuse the rest of the population...who are either pole-dancing for peanuts...slaving away in some sweat-shop with barely a scrap of cloth resembling a T-shirt...standing on a street corner soliciting tourists for sex wearing considerably less than a pair of underwear...or posing naked for a mail-order bride e-catalog...I'd be surprised if anyone in Thailand could identify a pair of underwear in a line-up...I imagine a pair of tighty whities in Thailand would be akin to a set of false teeth in Cajun Country...something shared by the entire community...usually annotated on a collective calendar in the town hut...entitling the days owner to one...out of house experience per month...and with the crime rate such as it is in beautiful law-abiding...underwear incorporating Thailand...I doubt it would be long before somebody got wise enough to hold the community skid-mark material hostage...making it impossible for the other members of the village to ever leave their huts...seriously tho folks...one thing bothers me about this little law from Thailand more than anything else...it's too vague...it doesn't stipulate how...or where...an individual must wear these restrictive undergarments...so...for those of you with the mindset of vacationing in Thailand...taking in all the seedy sites of their netherworld...I would suggest you place your choice of hip hugging privacy protectors over...or outside...your regular street clothes...sure you'll look ridiculous...the natives will undoubtedly recognize you as a tourist...but you shouldn't hafta worry about being subjected to street-side strip searches by local authorities looking for a little kick back to supplement their soiled shorts inspection program...we have similar laws lacking any form of lucidity here in the states...I just read an article this past week...and NO I'm not gonna fumble thru a weeks worth of news feeds to find it again...suffice to say there are a plethora of these same sex marriage morons in one of our states who are just appalled that they can't get the anti-sodomy statute off the books...here's an idea...STOP wastin' your time and money trying to get it overturned...keep your shit in the closet...so to speak...and NO I'm not endorsing homophobic practices...to each their own...I can't for the life of me figure out what makes a male entity stare at another guys hairy ass-crack and think...'Damn I sure would like to ride that like a bucking buffalo at Wild Bill's Rodeo and Reverie'...nor do I possess the desire to be privvy to the inner workings of their sexual appetites...the military has a great program in place...DON'T ASK...DON'T TELL...lesbians on the other hand...completely different story...and don't let your significant other fool ya...he may say...'Ewww...that's gross...how can women do that'...hell he may even utilize corresponding facial expressions to signify his disapproval...truth of the matter is...if you showed up at home tonight with a bi-sexual girlfriend and explained to him...in no uncertain terms...that you and Megan Fox were going upstairs to engage in an activity involving each others forbidden fruits...1 of 2 things will happen...he'll either stand by his story and act disappointed...walk off into the other room displaying tumultuous expressions of emotions...while he secretly waits long enough to call all of his buddies and excitedly explain how he has come to the conclusion you are his soul-mate...or he will abandon all episodes of being sexually offended by the circumstances...and crawl...beg...and plead for front row seats like a fat kid in a candy store without a dime to his name...however...for friends and family...should you...at some point in your life...take the time to visit Thailand...do yourselves a favor...do all of us a favor...click on this link...it is one of my favorite songs of all time...and directly applies in a round-about way to our tidbit http://youtu.be/ahlWufJqcSQ you will not be unsatisfied as this song touches on a lot of different things I mention throughout my tidbits...unfortunately the comedian who lent his voice to this lyrical rant has since passed...(R.I.P. Greg Giraldo)...but the words...altho hilarious...hold a basic truth as to what is wrong within our society...as well as socities around the world...Thailand...obviously included...insane...archaic laws...rules...and stipulations we all must muddle thru in order to have some sort of semblance in our daily lives...just remember...when travelling abroad...in Thailand...the wearer of the cloth crap keeper is KING!!!
