  1. Has all the hallmarks of a successful soap opera plot. In fact, I'm not really sure if this is a news article or an actual review of a TV series.
  2. Tariffs are just the blunt instrument Trump has chosen to change the globalist status quo. In one fell swoop he puts the kybosh on the US leftist political elites, the climate change anti-energy anti-human idiots, and most importantly...Chayna! The other blunt instrument in his bag was a kinetic war. he probably made the right choice. Let's give it six months for the oven timer to ping and we'll see what the cake looks like then.
  3. Cans of baked beans and sausages. Ultimate childhood nostalgia. That, and saveloy soup.
  4. So, when I changed to drinking San Mig instead of Heineken, and changed back again, did I convert then revert - or vicki-versa. Very confusing for me, probably because in my dotery I've become lapsed atheist.
  5. If you want your illusions shattered, take a stroll down Walking Street in the daylight.
  6. With the medieval address system used in Thailand, even the official Thailand Post drivers can't find you anyway. This data is worth about the price of an iced coffee.
  7. Agreed, I feel more sorry for the light pole.
  8. Peruvian Kamagra - I doubt the radish flavor would go down well with your typical Pattaya punter.
  9. Kudos to this girl for taking a stand (okay, a knee) against this liberal woke anti-woman BS. But it begs the question - does this make her a misogynist or a misandrist?
  10. Feeling cold is subjective. A/C less than 26C in Thailand and I feel uncomfortably cold. A native of Scotland would consider 26C to be a pensioner-killing heatwave.
  11. For the same reason they don't wear crash helmets on motorcycles - their conviction that they are superior and infallible in every respect, and physics is a social construction.
  12. I'd bet dollars to donuts the "new" husband was the "old" boyfriend.
  13. Try and explain to a Thai girl that the odds of winning the two number draw is 1/100, or three numbers 1/1,000. Taught a girl to play blackjack once. No comprehension whatsoever of odds v randomness - would frequently hit on 18.
  14. Luckily we have GoGo bars in Pattaya to do the laundering, instead of Turkish barber shops.
  15. The machine in my building has a sticky label saying when the filter was last changed. It's regularly updated and always displays a fairly recent date. Of course, the date may just be a change of label, not necessarily a change of filters. I don't use it anyway, got my own 4-cartridge filter system under the sink - and the water from it is just glorious.
  16. Obscure benefits of trade tariffs. Tariffs incentivise exporting countries to improve internal productivity to potentially offset the tariff. Side effect is that their economy improves, and their currency becomes stronger and has greater international buying power. Presents an opportunity for an exporting country to find new trade with other countries also impacted, cutting the USA out of the equation and leaving them more isolationalist to make their own stuff internally. Prices of USA exported goods will increase in cost due to the inflated cost of imported components, thus creating new trade opportunities on price differential. Trump is doing what he believes is best for the USA, but the world should see this as an opportunity, not a problem. There will be some grief while it all settles down, but by and large, this is a wake up and smell the coffee moment for the entire world.
  17. That transition from cognitive dissonance and confirmation bias into a world where reality is a "thing" is a bit of a beach. Just ask Bill Maher.
  18. Only a matter of time before the pair of them file lawsuits against Nasa and Boeing. It's the American way.
  19. I frequently attempt to watch recently made movies, say made since about 2016. Invariably I switch them off after 5 minutes to prevent myself from involuntarily puking in my beer. Then I watch The Matrix 1 thru 3. I did once force myself to watch Resurrections, but had to distract myself with self-abuse to make it watchable. The Wachowski Sisters are no match for the Wachowski Brothers.....oh wait!
  20. The racists and misandrists don't really know what they want. Equity will be achieved only when the work related accidental death rates are 50/50 male/female and ethnically represent demographics - and that ain't gonna happen any time soon. Feel free to google misandry and misandrist for clarification - it really is a word.
  21. Hillary is looking more like Rosie O'Donnell every day.
  22. At least Bill Maher had the dignity to gradually awaken to his misguided world view over a number of years, and is semi-believable, at least for a lefty. Does anybody really think Gavin Newsom has instantaneously red-pilled, or this is just a ploy in his bid for a presidential run.? I think the latter.
