  1. She could have been smarter, there are less detectable ways to slip out of the US.
  2. What's the name of the one who married a white guy?
  3. An international movement, you might call it. The archbishop of that movement in the US is named Bannon, and he evangelizes his errrr, product to other nations as well.
  4. "Hi'ya, fellas!" And it wasn't that long ago we saw Madison Cawthorn dressed as a woman. There's something about conservatives I don't understand.
  5. Is she the one who looks like Shrek? What's talent?
  6. All those people walking around like zombies with their eyes glued to their gadgets, what could it be that keeps them all so fascinated? Now you know. Whatever is going on inside the gadget is more important than what is actually in front of them.
  7. Don't take the use of terbinafine casually: it is a three-month course and really did a number on my digestive system, didn't completely get over it until a month after I stopped.
  8. Vinegar. Plain, clear vinegar. Generously splash the affected area twice a day. Also fresh air and sunlight, which may be easier said than done. There is a soap called Aesepso, available everywhere. Sometimes it works wonders.
  9. To me the original sin of the American evangelical movement is the racial segregation of churches. At the onset someone should have stepped up for the "higher power" beyond Earth-bound squabbles. Whenever a Republican becomes president, they say "God made him president." It's not said as a joke. And never lose sight that in the US Christianity is a business, that financial sector is called "ministry." One attractive aspect of it is tax exemption. There is a lot of money to be made by selling people something they cannot see. I could see someone like George Santos going into ministry, his bold-faced lying shows he's a natural. A certain disreputable (to put it nicely) figure in DT World is traveling around to country stirring up a "God & Country" fervor. I'm expecting him to start grabbing headlines by summer when the comers for the GOP candidacy start to surface. Unfortunately DT is not out of the picture, and he can still make things a lot worse.
  10. Now the MAGA regressives will have to translate their death threats into German before they send them off to him.
  11. Isn't "driving while farang" itself enough to demand money?
  12. 4 year old in a diaper? Kid knows how to hold a gun before he learns to wizz in the pot.
  13. The knucklehead didn't know the Taj Mahal is a mausoleum? Anyway, on to the next DT sideshow crisis. https://nypost.com/2023/01/17/trump-blasts-evangelicals-for-not-supporting-him-a-sign-of-disloyalty/ (I deliberately sourced at the Fox-in-print news site) Takes a real man to pee in his own beer.
  14. Ironic thing is this guy looks like the gang boss that was revealed in the fictional US television show "Law & Order SVU" last week. He really thought he could do these things without it leading back to himself? It's as crazy as DT's idea to nuke N. Korea and then deny it. https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-suggested-nuking-north-korea-and-blaming-someone-else-book-2023-1?op=1 I don't know who did it, could have been Montenegro. But sometimes it is just screwball comedy. https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-environment/2023/01/17/wyoming-ban-electric-vehicles-cars-2035/
  15. IMO if they ever get to put him in a cage it may not happen until 2032. He'd be 86. He could probably get away with claiming to be hospital-bound for the rest of his life, but maybe him too macho to play that one. A cuffed perp walk, like Bannon got, could happen. Put it this way: the stuff Jack Smith has been working on took place in the 1990s.
  16. But he seemed to be going along with it, no? What he believes vs words sent out to the world are two very different things. Hopefully someone other than Fox has recordings to check.
  17. Coming DT announcements and their timeline: Fake news. It's a hoax. DAWN is a terrorist organization that has done some very bad things. I have nothing to do with the production of LIV, I just let them use my golf course. I didn't attend the event. I wasn't even in Florida at the time. (there will be video and pics of him in attendance) I didn't accept any money. It was just a fee for use of the course. There were no laws broken. Khashoggi wasn't killed, he died of a heart attack. It's all a hoax. Whaddabout Hunter Biden's laptop? You're fake news.
  18. No, it is much more sinister than that. Best intro to how they play it would be to check out the work of one Frank Luntz. Conversations turn into double-talk, then triple-talk, and perhaps deeper dimensions until the person being polled is answering "yes" to something where they meant "no" because of the way the words were massaged. Hypothetical: The question is "do you think stray dogs should be killed?" 25% of people say yes. The question is then asked with given situations and carefully worded verb tense, e.g. the dog attacked a child, and they get the number up to 80% . They can then report the majority of the people support culling strays. Not a good example but I hope you get the idea, and I'll let you guess which US political party is big on this deception. IMO this is yet another GOP slight-of-hand to get people to vote for something that really isn't what it is presented to be. It's catching up with them. DT had a falling out with Luntz during the 2016 campaign. Never got the details but DT defamed him with all the usual insults. I guess he preferred his own deceptive yammering over Luntz's.
  19. In UK it's the Crown. In the US it's the flag. Or do you mean stuff like this? My own personal take is anyone who wears their patriotism on their sleeve has something else up that sleeve.
  20. This is a scene edited out of the Book of Genesis. Nice shot of Abe Lincoln doing his Al Jolson impression. I am always amused by the way some of these people say things like "this is what the founding fathers would want" without a trace of mirth.
  21. I remember the Nash. They were all cordless, they ran on gasoline like all the other cars back then. ????

    Beware Phuket

    They got off easy, Malaysian police have a rep for being bullies. They love to put someone in a choke hold until they pass out.
  23. An old saying: the only way to cheat death is to take your own life.
  24. Also a shoutout to Threepenny Opera; it was written by a German, set in Victorian London, but certain persons in Germany saw it as about themselves and the rest is history. Fagin and Macheath may be fictional but they live on, like Iago. Has the tune "The Bulging Pocket Makes the Easy Life" been translated into Thai? ????
