The sad news is that even when you get paroled there's virtually nothing to do anyway. The joint is a ghost town.

Learn the Michael Jackson moonwalk . They won't know if you're coming or going.
Or....wear a suit. Thais never ask anybody wearing a suit what they're up to. Wearing a suit gives you superhero powers that makes it look like anything you do is unquestionably legitimate.

Wait, I thought putrefying dead crabs are one of the things Thais love most...?
They're only angry because it requires them to bok-bok-bok about nine tonne of papaya to go with the crabs.

Will - read this thread about a thousand crabs dumped by the roadside. Maybe a fortuitous concidence.

Yep....thinking along this lines......it is just the retribution you invite that scares me off....for the moment. at least.
The idea would be threaten (or politely suggest) that this is your intention. An alternative may be to threaten (or politely infer) that you'll be erecting a huge noisy pump that may upset his patrons. Either way, you have negotiating power. At the moment you have no weapons in your arsenal.

This is not a joke - build a pig-sty up against the fence line and pack it to the gunnels with oinkers. Tit-for-tat and a peaceful demonstration of your ability to fire broadsides if necessary.

The former tourist numbers of 40M in 2019 equates to 110,000 average every day. This forecast of 180,000 over 2 months equates to 3,000 per day.
That represents a downturn of about 98% from 2019, and that's using averaged daily figures without factoring the peak high season travel numbers.
I wonder if I could use their calculator to do my tax return - I'd expect one sizable refund!

I agree with all you said, except the lefty part. It is not just the dems. It is all of them. All politicians seem to be nearly insane, and likely pathological. Especially here.
Yeah sorry - I used the term "lefty" only because climate is their thing. You're correct in that the liquorice allsorts of politicians of all persuasions are as loopy as their counterparts.
I think the terms left and right are/have lost their meaning. Perhaps a better frame of reference is collectivist and individualist. I don't view left and right as a location on a straight line anymore, nor on an x/y graph if you want to interpret the amount of authoritarianism either ideology exudes.
I now consider political views on the circumference of a circle or a compass. The centreists who are prepared to have dialogue and reach consensus are between NW (the left) and NE (the right). The ideologues with a lesser tendency towards tyranny on the left are at NW to SW and on the right are at NE to SE. The loopies of both persuasions are either side of S and are so close together in their rabid hunger for power by different methods they are the same animal - one has spots and the other has stripes. Neither have a plan other than to gain or hold on to their power while getting rich at the same time.

Those of us who live in a world of observable reality are in full agreement with you. Unfortunately every politician in the world now resides in a reality where rants tweeted by radical ideologues on Twitter determines their social policy.
I'm waiting for the first climate related lockdown which will soon follow the current dystopian agenda. Some lunatic lefty state governor (because it's bound to happen in the US, although the Aussies may beat them to it) will declare the daily CO2 emissions are at an all time high and all travel and social activity is banned for a week or a month. And that becomes the new normal - or should that be the new-new normal?
The only existential threat the human race has ever experienced is the threat of tyrannical overlords and their hunger for power.

Yep, some solid rain in Jomtien but persistent as opposed to a full-on tropical downpour as yet - it looks like it will get worse.
I'm trying to convince the missus to venture out and leave me in peace for my routine Sunday sport catchup. But she only got the truck washed and detailed yesterday and is adamant it's not getting dirty just yet.

You "pass away" following a long illness or a long period of medical attention. When a muppet slams their car into your scooter and you die, you have been "killed".

Can the "officials" please also do a ‘round up’ of the homeless dogs too...not just in Pattaya but nationwide before the tourists return...thanks.
They can start on Pratamnak hill where some old alcoholic witch living in a shanty has a pack of about 30 dogs running wild. She sits on the street begging with her dogs barking and snapping at the heels of any passers-by.
I'd go and suggest an alternative business plan to her, but it's too much fun watching the odd farang shake a stick or throw a kick at the 3 dogs yapping at him, and then the other 27 come bounding out of the jungle.

Ditch all carbs except those that come in a bottle of Johnnie Walker. Drink your JW neat or with carb free organic ice. A shot of JW in your tea is a wonderful and healthy replacement for milk and sugar.
Eat only those things that once had eyes and/or legs. The only exception being onions and mushrooms.
Ok, seriously - avoid carbohydrates as much as possible and follow a keto based diet. The first three or four days are difficult but once you're over that initial hump it's a breeze. My diet consists of fresh meat of any kind (including as much fat as you want but NO processed meats), eggs, fresh fish, mushrooms, onions, cheese, coffee and yep, Johnnie Walker. I break the rules and add sauces for flavor but not too much. Once a week I'll go super radical and have spuds.
The weight falls off. The bloated belly disappears. Bowel motions are less frequent and you'll save on toilet tissue. Mental clarity improves - the downside is you realise what a bunch of muppets are in charge of the world. You'll sleep better and wake up feeling fresher.
Once you've lost the initial weight and bloated belly you can spoil yourself somewhat, but weigh yourself every morning and if your weight is even 0.1kg over your target weight, don't eat for 24 hours.
I'm 61, 5'10" and 74kg. As a 15-40 year old I was a solid 105kg and I ain't never going back there.

Knowing the ability of Thai people to give clear and succinct directions to a location when asked, these blokes were lucky to be found this side of Christmas.

Some people evading capture ran into the sea. Imagine if some poor sod drowned for committing the heinous and heretical crime of consuming a hamburger and a beer in violation of authoritarian dogma.
This would never have happened in the time of the Spanish Inquisition. I suspect even at the height of Stalin's purges that eating borscht and washing it down with a vodka amongst your comrades did not necessarily end up with a stint in a gulag.

I think LGBTQ is now officially old skool. The latest alphabet soup I saw was 2SLGBTQQPIA2+. The 2S is for 2-spirit, and the P is for pansexual (or was it Peter Pan - not too sure). And the LG and the BTQQPIA2+'s have fallen out with each other because the T's think the LG's are not inclusive enough, at least in the UK. The B's are all very confused by it all and don't know which way to swing - some want to have their cake and eat it too.
Also in the UK the official medical term for those formerly known as "women" is now "people with a cervix" or "persons with a vagina" to clarify that it's probably not essential for the T's to bother with a cervix smear test. And if you think I'm joking, just google it.
The word "woman" is now considered not inclusive enough - intersectionality in motion.
As for Superman, at least he/she/they/zim/zer/zie (or whatever preferred pronoun "they" choose) is still called Superman regardless of (insert appropriate pronoun) orientation. I dread to think what would happen if they tried for a remake of Wonderwoman - probably insist the role is played by a 2 Spirited pansexual unicorn of no fixed
abodegender, cervix optional.-

Dad gave me two pieces of solid guidance in life. Don't take any prisoners, and if you can't bury your mistakes then make damn sure you can successfully blame them on somebody else.

"Lampang Hiso" woman flees the scene after Mini Cooper ends up on it's roof!
in Chiang Mai News

Credit where credit is due - describing an overturned car as "having a dented roof". Somehow I suspect the insurance company might have a different way of looking at it.
