No, Celeste is right – Songkran stops for nothing and the kids love it more than the kids in the US love Christmas (well, Thailand doesn’t do Christmas in the same way, but you know what I mean). Trying to go out on the street without getting soaked just doesn’t work. And also, the Thai military presence isn’t as scary as it would be anywhere else – a few years ago when they had the military coup that put the current guy in charge, people were having their photos taken with tanks and stuff. It’s just too chilled out a place to be that violent! Remember a month or so back when they had the trouble at Suvarnabumi airport, and the next morning the rioters came back and cleaned the place up?! Genius.

*grin* Just my thought…I wish my parents would have made such a picture of me. I most definitely will do one with my child

Great picture, and one that doesn’t have Obama in it. Kind of like a breath of fresh air. I lol’d at the ‘lol creators’ name.

Looks Photoshopped

Xenobiologista — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 03:48:03 +0000

Your interpretation is plausible, but there’s still a funny edge around the kid. I’m not entirely willing to believe it wasn’t ’shopped.

Plus, the kid looks white.

I don’t think the troops would be letting the kid play near a riot, either. Clearly, there is no danger.

Every kid who ever got asked that question wanted to be able to answer this way.

Well, the picture was taken by somebody at MSNBC so it wouldn’t be too much a stretch to assume that the parents just let their kid get a picture with the troops. If that isn’t the case and the parents are AWOL, sure, I will agree with a parenting fail.

By: Czernobog

Czernobog — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 21:41:11 +0000

Well, it doesn’t look like there’s an actual riot anywhere near there, but I still think I’d get my kid away at the sight of a military/police shield line.

By: Tobstv

Tobstv — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 21:36:46 +0000

Agreed. And the kid is perfectly safe; the soldiers wouldn’t dream of hurting him!

Thailand can be so, so weird at times, which is why I love it.

It said in the Swedish Metro newspaper that the kid was a British tourist.

Or it is all just circumstance. I don’t recall riots putting out a schedule so people can avoid them.

“Prison Bitch” was my ringtone for my former boss, LOL. I got to enjoy it every time he called to yell at me.

Have you heard “The First Baseball Game”? Not a song, but the most beautiful impression of Harry Carry I’ve ever heard, and a really good spoof of the Bible.

Furburger, hair pie, pink canoe, vertical smile, muff, clam, taco, bagina, beaver, box, cooze, dick shed, and fu(k hole don’t bother me. For some reason, the visual of a ham wallet or a twat just run shivers up my spine, LOL.

If you can find the Bob and Tom song “Camel Toe”, I suggest a listen or two. Don’t drink anything before you do!

sorry froo. i hang out with a vulgar group of friends. saying things like ham wallet in the middle of a perfectly normal conversation in public isn’t that out of the ordinary for us. you could try these ones: furburger? hair pie? pink canoe? twat? vertical smile? muff? clam? taco? bagina? beaver? box? cooze? dick shed? dyke sandwich? fcuk hole?

Parenting fail! Who’s great idea was it to let the kid play near the site (or potential site) of a riot?

By: Czernobog

He doesn’t have a helmet or a baton either. He’s either an officer or a guy in a costume.

The guy on the right looks really miffed. Maybe he doesn’t like being the one guy whose shield doesn’t match the others.

This is what happens in Thailand when riots happen at the same time as the Thai New Year’s Water Festival (Songkran). The army is out to quell the riots. The kid with the water gun is celebrating Songkran.

In 1996, television talk-show hostess Oprah Winfrey and one of her guests, Howard Lyman, were involved in a lawsuit surrounding the Texas version of this law. Although they were not the first people to be sued using this type of legal action, this case created a media sensation and is the example most people associate with food libel litigation.
