Anyone that spends an awful lot of time in Thailand....typically does for the cheap and abundant weed.

We knew a man who had some pretty whacked out phobias, he was not a danger in general in our knowing him. But under some circumstances, like those video games, I can imagine that something could set off some individuals.
