it seems that nobody actually takes this nut job seriously otherwise action would have been taken already.

Starting to understand why Obama ignored this chump for most of his 2 terms in office. 

They haven't "reached out" to Cambodia yet but they are discussing the matter.   They have to first discuss having a discussion about having a discussion, before they have the actual discussion.   Government double speak gobbledigoop.

Wasn't the Cambodian PM in the news recently giving PM Prayuth a hug?

Ought to be an interesting "rest of the story" on this.  Cutting throats is, IMO, in the chopping off heads genre - typically not the act of a garden variety criminal. 

Can't blame folks who didn't get out and need water, food, camping gear and necessities, but flat screen televisions and the like?  They're just taking the piss.

The point is to use language like that in front of women and children, is low class.  I get that you don't agree with this.  It's just my opinion.  I always start out trying to be a gentlemen.

 

I'm just goofing around.  Jeez.

If your not concerned about the "F bomb" being dropped in front of woman  and children, that's pretty sad.

He dropped the F Bomb more than once, right?  Amazingly, there were no earthquakes.  The markets didn't crash.  Nobody died.  Things were basically the same as they were before.  Had he called that dude a snow flake, it woulda been "ON" then! 

Fuggetabouit. 

Sounds like another good "buy" opportunity coming up.

However did did not say get a life.  must be talking about a different story.  He was dropping the "F Bomb"  In front of woman and children numerous times.  So who is the douche bag really?

Frenchy poked the wrong bear and got his feewings hurt.  Poor thing.  And the women!  And children!  Oh my! 

Da' dreaded F Bomb.  A wonderfully useful, dynamic word, kinda like fuggetaboutit.

My branch wouldn't budge this time.  Union Pay only.  Been there done that already, so I walked out.

Sent an in-mail via iBanking when I got home.  2 days later, response said yes, can get Visa debit from BKK, 1 week delivery, etc.  I never did go back and try again, now just transferring money into Krungsi accounts for day to day use.  Screw Bangkok Bank!  Only reason I keep accounts with them now is for on-line transfers via New York Branch.

I grew up in Southern California so EQs, while less frequent than hurricanes and tornadoes in other parts of the country,  were part of living there. 

Spent a few years quake free in Japan and years later, lived on the island of Guam for 2 years during which there were two 7.0 quakes, a super typhoon and a regular typhoon.   Those quakes sure do get your attention.

it takes 20 mins to an hour at the most, in that time i have them at my house already, chat with them for as short as time as possible  then into the sack never get a refusal. got to be honest i think they want it as much as i do. ive also spoke to many of these ladies after and they have all said if Thai lady comes to your house she know she will have sex with you. thank you Thailand.

You talk to them after as well?

" For example she was quick to allow men to have sex with her"

 

was it quicker than 2 hours after meeting for the first time?

 

cause that has been my average "waiting period" so far here in Thailand.  

2 Hours?  Dude, you have killer discipline to wait THAT long!

Push back in front of them if in a queue, or make my displeasure v clear if they have shoved their items in front of mine when reaching the checkout .

 

Although I was v happy when in a 7/11 queue (and just about to put my purchases on the counter when a Thai pushed in front) and the cashier pointed out that I was first!

Roger that.    I've done same, but other times have let it go.  I'm retired.  Plenty of money and time.

Little bit diffrent telling someone to get stuffed to telling someone to <deleted> off

I got my translation wrong.  That's what I meant "Bleep Off". 

So would you deck the Thai queue jumper/10 items or less violator if he rebuffed your intervention and told you to Bleep Off?  Or would you let it go?

Thai people should be allowed to go first. Over a falang.

No i personaly have never seen anyone thai or foriegner jump a queue. What would i do in clear precise vioce i would say in Thai or English. Hey theres a queue here would you like to get in it.

And if the Thai told you (In Thai) to get stuffed, would you clean his clock?

Why get excited about somebody filming you/taking your picture?

When i go out on my mobility scooter, many people get out their phones and take my picture, especially when i am shopping in big C, even the management in big C have done it, so what.

The man is an arrogant prick, who thinks he is something he is not.

You're referring to the French guy, right? 

LOL - just kidding.

Your missing the point he jumped the queue. Did i say i was in any habit of filming anyone. All i said was i would deck the tosser if he shouted and swore at me.

He says he didn't.  But admitted to the high crime of 14 items on a 10 or less check out aisle.  Even though he's a blowhard, I believe him on that singular point.

Have you ever experienced a Thai jumping the queue in a shop?  What did you do?

The french man should have been arrested.

LOL.  Far as I know, being a pretentious, pedantic douche bag from Europe, or the US for that matter, isn't a crime.  Yet.

He is right about the social media reaction.  Look at this OP.  "Meltdown".  I wouldn't describe his reaction as a meltdown.  He seemed fairly composed, wasn't yelling whilst telling Frenchie to get a life.

I just wish it was like the UK when you go into certain pubs and They always have beers you have never herd of. Which probably won't be there for long and cost about the same a normal pint. It's about the only thing I miss that and Cadburys Chocolate.

I don't get too worked up about beer, and don't know much about the fast moving craft beer trend. 

Last hols back in the US, visited one of these artsy fartsy craft beer pubs where partially employed Millennials hang out and stare at their iPhones.   There were probably 100 "beers" on the menu with names like Flaming Herpes and Pumpkin Mango Blue Balls.  I just wanted a *&^%!  cold beer and a sandwich whilst my Mrs. perused the shops selling "re-purposed" used clothing to 20 somethings with purple hair and nose rings.  

The kid behind the bar asked me what I normally drank, and pursed his lips like a horrified wine snob when I said, "Coor's Light". 

Craft beer taste on an Archa budget. 

Seems like an OK dude to me telling some Frog in BigC where to shove it.   Bit off his rocker and obsessed with Trump though.  I bet half you nerds criticizing him for being rude, would be wearing out the LIKE button if he railed on Trump in the ThaiVisa World News threads.

Can somebody give some explanation with this list? What does it mean in practical terms?

Sorry, that was the PDF from the Thai Civil Aviation Authority.  Wasn't finding  a list of suspended AOCs, so thought the list showing active AOCs would be useful.
