Lusty Posted February 21, 2003 Report Share Posted February 21, 2003 I know that Sukumvit soi 7/1 means "up the arse" :hubba:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasmine Posted February 21, 2003 Report Share Posted February 21, 2003 [color:"red"] I know that Sukumvit soi 7/1 means "up the arse" . [/color] :D No it is not, it is named after a family. "sukum" means "careful in thinking and manners", "vit/wit", I think comes from "witaya" which means "subjects"- not sure though.
