Or extra payment to not do their job. One thing is sure: They want extra payment.

Could it be that the police know about this all over the country and they collect commissions to look the other way? It's like all those illegal casinos. They couldn't exist if the police would do their job.

How about some information what they fight was about.

You are doing something wrong.

No, it's more an explanation of the ignorance of one person. I am happy to pay my electric bill and pay a little extra for nice and cool. The alternative is to pay a lot for heating in the winter somewhere back home. No.

Refuse that business if you want to refuse it. I am sure that whoever made the decision of no cash thought about the possibility that some people will not go there because they only want to pay in cash. And then the owner or manager probably decided that they can survive without that 1% who only want to pay cash. There are lots of advantages for business to do cashless business only. They made that decision. As I wrote above, I am not against cash, I have cash and credit cards in my wallet and banking apps on my phone. At any time, I can decide what I like to use. It's nice to have options and be flexible.

What is/was the point of keeping that rice for 10 years in warehouses? Did anybody think it will improve? Like: here, look, we have vintage rice from 2010 As usual, all this doesn't make any sense. TiT

Maybe you should go out and look around.

Next thing you tell us you use whitening cream because you watched their ads...

Do you really expect to use public Wi-Fi securely? Really? If you want some security, then use something provided by a big ISP like internet at home or mobile data on a phone. And never assume it is 100% secure. It isn't.

Arrest the criminal for meddling in state business! Didn't he tell us he only wants to play with his grandchildren? That's what he should do. All day long, and they whole night, 24/7.

Why is it so difficult to find a sensible solution? How about: Don't sell it in the open and don't advertise it. Because the idea should not be to promote any kind of drug use. That is why we don't have advertisement for alcohol and cigarettes. Sell it like cigarettes or maybe in pharmacies, could that be a reasonable compromise? But then, nothing here is decided based on facts and logic. It's just decided. Sad.

Who wants to use only cash all the time? How do you pay your bills? Do you always have a wad of cash with you? Mostly I use cash for small amounts like when I drink a coffee or go to the market. If I buy things for a couple of thousand THB, I use one of my credit cards. Or maybe one of the banking apps. It's easy. There is nothing wrong with cash, but if someone only wants to use cash, that obviously brings up the question why? Are you in one of those not so legal businesses where all is paid in cash? Are you one of those officials who has millions of cash at home because it can't be seen in your bank account? Cashless payments are fine, get used to them.

I agree. Most of the time the service is just fine in the places where I go. Sometimes new places, but often again and again to the places which I know and where they know me. And if something is not perfect, I accept that this can happen. If it's important then I tell it to them and they fix it, problem solved. Sometimes I see guests who get loud and aggressive if even the smallest things are not perfect. Or if there is a misunderstanding because the guest thought the service people should be able to read their minds. Take it easy! If it is not a big deal, then don't make a big deal out of it. And if it is really bad, then don't go back. There are lots of other options.

So, you looked her up... That picture is from the beginning of her career, probably with a title like "barely legal". 😉

If you can switch everything off in your home and have a look at your meter. If it runs, then someone else is using your electricity. Best do this several time, especially when you think someone might charge the car, use AC, etc. Another reason could be dirty ACs. If they are dirty, and old, then they need a lot more power to cool down the home.

We all know that some people are more open than others. I moved to another city when I was about 20. And to another country, Thailand, when I was 30, and I had a long time to get used to things. If someone lived and worked his whole life in one region, and then decides to retire half around the globe, then things are a lot more difficult to understand and get used to. Or, more likely, those people will just never adapt at that age.

I think it boils down to what we all consider normal. When I grew up and I was in school all my friends lived in houses with both of their parents and often a sister or brother. People finished school and often visited university. We didn't have lots of money, but money was also never a problem. The parents paid for everything. That was normal - at least for me. For lots of other people my normal was very different from their normal. But I only realized that many years later when I was not living in this sheltered environment anymore. I write it like this because I guess we all have something what we considered normal when we grew up, and later we realized it isn't really normal for everybody. We all have different experiences with relationships, money, and and and

Actually, you have many many more choices. Your ex is not the only person who rents out houses.

A long time ago my gf took me to a Thai restaurant with singers where she used to work in the kitchen. The boss, maybe 50, had a string of young Thai girlfriends. The oldest was maybe 16. He also made them regularly pregnant. Police and soldiers were regular guest in that bar, and it seems for everybody this was all completely normal. Ok, that is now a long time ago, but I don't think the principle changed. Almost all men like to play around with pretty young girls. It's nature. Obviously, feminists don't like it, and men who listened too long to those feminists pretend they don't like it, but that doesn't change reality. Look at Sasa Handa, a Japanese movie star, and think about if you would enjoy if she gave you a massage or two.

That obviously brings up the question how many 18yo in Thailand don't have daddy issues and don't want money?

A week or so ago AN published a thread where they wrote now their articles are an AI generated mix from other articles. After that thread became pretty busy, they deleted it...

Asks the girls of the night. They know all those short-time places. 😉

Let me try if I understand this correct. If people knew that Trump had sex with a porn actor while he was married that is not really so bad. If people also know that he was wearing a Playboy pajama and he talked with her about STD and the porn business and then he sat with boxershorts on the bed, now that makes it a danger to his campaign. Really?

It's one or the other. A pedophile is only interested in prepubescent children. Guys who are (also) interested in late teens are not pedophiles and they are not interested in prepubescent children. It's something completely different. Maybe you don't know or more likely you don't want to know, or you just don't understand it. I will put you on my ignore list. Not because you have a different opinion but because what you write doesn't make any sense. There is no point arguing on that level.
