Since the launch of Foursquare in Bangkok, it has seen a surge of Thai users—the very same group of idiotic Thai Social Media users who would tweet every second of their life. From tweeting about going to the toilets, now they’re also checking in when going to the toilet. The launch of Foursquare Bangkok has given birth to a whole new level of social media idiocy.
Evidence One in the picture.
Among the misspellings, there are unnecessary “places” such as “My Room”, “Toilet”, and every bus station and junction, useless tips like “This office building is full of bitches” or “Drunk drunk drunk”, and unforgivable duplicates (Lotus On Nut, Tesco On Nut, Tesco Lotus On Nut, lotus onnut, etc) due to users’ either laziness to use the search function or their egotistical nature to try and nab the Mayorship of every place they go to.
Since this tumblelog is dedicated to documenting every little Thai tech faux pas, I thought I’d revive it with the newest nuisance in the Thai interwebs in hopes of creating awareness about how to correctly use Foursquare to avoid ruining yet another good online movement.
*We’re also gonna be posting the IDs of the wrongdoer to shame them. Some particular IDs are also known for making stupid entries. Here’s to hoping they will finally get the message.
So PPat69, I’ve corrected the above entry, as well as your “Chester Grill Checken” place.
