Use mine all the time across the counter and never had a problem. I don't use it at ATM's as there is a charge (I think 200B a time) and fairly low monthly limits. Obviously you have to maintain a balance in Wise. It will debit your THB balance if you hold THB. Otherwise it will debit your home currency and convert to THB at their standard rate/fee structure. Occasionally it may debit a third currency in your balances - I think it does a multiple cross rate comparison amongst the balances and if it concludes that you save 3 cents of your USD by converting GBP to THB instead, it will do so. Kind of an arbitrage thing.

Going back to the caveman days, society has always been rife with lies, rumour, innuendo, mistruths, falsehoods, and jungle-drums and Chinese-whispers etc. It's called "the human condition". I guarantee you that if mankind had never developed the ability to speak or create the written word, we would be telling lies in sign language. The first published lies were probably done on a stone tablet. The internet, therefore, is merely the re-creation of the stone tablet. And mankind's propensity to both tell and believe lies has not changed since year dot. Unfortunately, the consequences have.

Another Leftist social experiment gone titsup. Next!

Brits, Aussies, and Kiwis use mate in at least four ways. To address a friend, to address an acquaintance whose name they have forgotten or don't know, as a friendly one-word exclamation at something done or said by another. And in the case in point, to piss off a stranger in a confrontational manner. And you are correct. Of the three, Aussies are the more mentally challenged and have a limited lexicon.

Dilligaf.

Generally speaking, choosing the best man for the job leads to positive outcomes.

Agreed. With so many Somalians in London now, it just doesn't feel like Bangladesh any more,

A Russian fishing trawler with an armed crew of three could cruise up the Thames and take over Britain in about two minutes. Spoiler alert - Putin doesn't want a third-world decadent and bankrupt society as part of his empire.

This isn't a breach of protocol, it's SOP. I've seen three totally inebriated off-duty cops, but still in uniform (sans shirt, to be fair) help each other across the road to get into their cop car truck and promptly drive into a power pole at 3 klm/h. The driver got out and waved his pistol at the pole, threatening to shoot it.

The WEF is an existential threat to humanity. Trump should declare it a terrorist organization.

It means the ashtray is full.

Alpha males don't tolerate this sort of stuff. Fifteen seconds after the first disturbance commenced, you should have been in their face doing a Jack Nicholson impersonation - they would have moved.

Bring back Log-Books and Slide Rules. I blame the invention of the digital calculator for the entire demise of Western civilization.

Tinnies are half-way decent, albeit with very flakey and buttery pastry. But HUGELY overpriced. Two hundred Baht for basically a non-gourmet BP Service Station pie is nearly twice what I pay back home in my heavily taxed, heavily regulated, socialist republic of Aotearoa. The Tasmanian dude must me raking it in.

The worldwide fertility rate is 2.3 (and declining rapidly), and only slightly above the replacement rate of 2.1. There would be serious consequences if we were talking about Polar Bears or the Lesser Spotted Woodpecker, but it seems that the possibility of self-induced extinction of Homo Sapiens is not really a thing. As an example, China's population is forecast to reduce from 1.4 Billion to 525 million by 2100. And the Western world is on a similar track. China's population shrinks again and is set to more than halve | Victoria University Depopulation will be a much-used phrase in 2050. But unlike Climate Change, it really will be a genuine existential threat to civilization.

I actually watched the hearing. Hegseth won by a knockout.

Maybe it's just me, but this is exactly the kind of thing kids are supposed to spend their childhood doing. Next up - confirm Newton's fundamental forces of physics by jumping off the roof with an umbrella.

"Accepting a bribe" sounds almost passive, as though the bribe recipient was beguiled by the evil contractor. In reality, the crime should be referred to as "Extortion".

Blame Don Johnson. Thank God the pastel-coloured suits didn't linger.

When Mother Nature disregards one's green non-interventionist ideology, it's a real beach.

Scorned women, tantrum throwing 3-year olds, and shunned Marxists, all tend to go down in a last-stand display of wanton destruction. Obama should at least have let Biden exit the chair with what little bit of dignity remained. Kudos to Kamala for her Jan 6th display - if she keeps her mouth shut between now and Jan 20th, history may treat her with some semblance of kindness.

This guy needs a lesson in how to flip the bird, and probably how to give a V for Victory. Maybe he's dyslexic. But more importantly, did the sedan driver have his hazard lights flashing, or not?

Maybe this is a good reason for America to consider converting to the metric system.

Au revoir Pierre Castro, you virtue signalling <deleted>.

The good news is that following the upcoming nuclear winter, men with balls will suddenly become highly desirable, although in somewhat short supply.
