OP you sound like a surly teenager when you answer people trying to help you..on each answer almost.

TOTALLY. If only the Thai immigration were like that lot....the Burmese immi. are super friendly !

Welcome back to planet Earth... How was the trip ?

Yeah, that whole thing is just degrading.

Does this happen in Viet Nam etc....overstayer parades ?

Yip, about to say that as well... In the UK barely see a masked person anytime...or scaremonger variant news articles. Like a distant bad memory now.

Are foreigners even allowed to organise themselves into a group to connect with the government and air all the issues with immigration and consulates ? That is only way the S-show that is immigration rules gets fixed... Permanent 90-day visa-exempt like Malaysia would be a good start. or an overhauled computer visa application system that is simpler and fast. Maybe if someone can find the minister most likely to deal with farang visa stuff...it's a start. Stable simplified universally applied rules......can but dream.

That's me out of a job now.

Yes, you and BritTim most active as 2nd to his know-how previously.

Lamphun looks like a time capsule of CM before the tourists came en masse !

I'm cheered up well and fine....THANK YOU.

Sir, yes sir ! I'll do and say what I want within the rule framework of the forum. THANK YOU. In certain contexts - using cannabis can tip a person over the edge is what I'm saying to be clear. Actually, your so-called 'HARD drugs"... it just opens up another debate - seeing as MDMA and psilocybin are moving strongly forward as psychotherapeutic tools now. The stamets stack being used for depression for one.

Can't make this stuff up.....we are all living in a parody hologram.

Blame it on the LIKE icon on facebook/IG/TIKTOK...LIKE...LIKE...LIKE. It's like the movie PONTYPOOL..

Pai is LIKE the Gen Y/Z epicentre toytown of the north...hear the word LIKE in every sentence... "i was LIKE..and she was LIKE...let's LIKE get a beer and some LIKE pizza.....grab a chair over at LIKE at the LIKE roadside" Take your Thai g/f to get looked at LIKE you have a modern sex slave in tow.

@stoner I did say 'combo'....a bad trip followed by a chronic dive into weed vs getting grounded straight can be all it takes for some to reach a tipping point. There just seemed to be a mono perspective echo chamber over at the the 'weed bar thread' that the stuff can do no wrong when anything negative 'side effects' comes up. Am still against it being illegal and FOR the right of others to choose what they ingest. There is just a certain sub-section of personality types that in may send a bit looney quite quickly with higher dose sativa.

Oh yes, well done. On point as always. Almost knew you or 'nonutsack' would chime in.

Spot on - you could say he had a PHd. in the immigration maze that is in LoS. Was good to see his photo finally - I always imagined him as a rollypoly English pensioner for some reason.

My friend went like that late 90s when the skunk came in more to UK... He was off his rocker most of time on it. ...and another guy spings to mind early 90s got put in the loony bin though that was combo of acid/hash and chronic. It can definitely magnify schizoid/schizotypal negative traits too I'd say - knowing 2 on that end of the spectrum.. If it's there latent or at a low level in a person - I agree it can get quite magnified with chronic use of da weed...especially the sativa stuff...and strooong hashish.... Though I'm not against the stuff and its an adult choice...I just think there's a bit of 1-sided bias that it does no wrong - for those it does no wrong to/with...

Did they just bump the prices following inflationary pressures overseas with no real pressures on supply costs in Thailand...anyone know ? UK gas domestic heating costs were horrendous last 6 months...bills up 3x vs say 2018 yearly cost.

Yeah, it's sugar in everything in LoS...milk was the last straw..if you excuse the pun... ????

On the link list.....mostly I'd say yes.

No, in actual fact you pour coffee below absolute boil point so as to let more of the taste through....

You just described all of my 'proper' neighbours - I'm not going to be able to sleep easy now...

I only say the OP is chatGPT as you never get a pointed emotional response to barbed posts at 'him' like real beer swiggers give back to you on this forum....just more convoluted FACTS and DATA....
