Me too, usually 29. 22 is insane and likely won’t achieve that, so they’ll just be running continuously. It will also seriously dry you out. Each to their own.

Trump admits getting fooled lol. I reckon he’s playing us, too. He’s too proud to admit that, surely.

Same. Find flying nowadays a real chore and angsty, and will only do so if necessary. All this was a requirement years ago, but they want to push it through even tighter. Why doesn’t the world go back to just being, normal? Such a drag.

Too much for this thread… but … It’s either a divine game, or maybe to suffer so the universe can know itself. Suffering ends when consciousness is drawn back out and disassociates from the physical (i.e. brain)—99.99% of the population miss the last bit. 🙂

Oh great, more spam. And what national emergencies? The unfortunate deaths through the recent quake were a random event… the workers unlikely would have got out had they seen a message on their phone after the fact. Air quality alerts would be handy in CM and Bkk, but people already know it’s bad. Phones pinging alerts are more likely to cause accidents through panic and distraction in and of themselves. Just more big brother. Let people be.

How’s about this, Donald, Ukraine gives up Crimea if you give Alaska back to Russia? How would that feel to cede your territory to a foreigner? Unthinkable. Trump is such a robot; it’s all about ‘the deal’ to him. He doesn’t give a monkey’s chuff about the people and what’s right.

Well he is a lawyer after all; he’ll chop and change whenever it suits.

I’ve seen it in mine. Because he was the leader of another faith and reached out to others?

I agree but the kinds of people that are letting this slide are the ones actually running the show. Thailand is still at least a generation away from growing up and coming down on this behaviour. It may not be what people want, but at least custodial sentences being meted out is a step in the right direction.

This is not a bad thing. Thailand is already too busy and fewer coming in will make it easier on the infrastructure. The people that will really feel the dip most will be the airlines, Chinese businesses, rich hoteliers and the supercilious TAT. Surely nobody cares about either of these. The real benefit will be for other tourists and the natives and residents not involved with tourism. Yay.

I get the annoyance, when warranted, but perhaps because your posts are contentious tripe? The sad emojis are useful when one couldn’t be bothered to respond, but I agree it can be annoying when you think you’ve made a OBVIOUS lighthearted comment and you get the donkeys jumping all over it. Also be aware that the boomers don’t do well with emojis, messaging, emails etc. 😂 You have to make allowances for that.

… that made him put his foot down? Never mind, boomer; back to sleep.

Cue the ‘my ole mum reckon a bunch of lard is great!‘ etc Made a quip about cooking at home with bad fats, clearly joking, and yet get the ‘sad’ ‘confused’ emojis. Some must sit there all day waiting to pounce. So sad, with all this beautiful county around us. Fats are great, esp the ribeye extra cooked after etc. And yes, gee and lard are possibly not as bad to cook with (AT THE RIGHT TEMP) than veg fats. But it is not necessarily good for you. Nothing is when it’s heated to the nth degree. Pretty sure we didn’t evolve with a wok full of heavy hot oils and fats though. Possibly big reason why cancer is so prevalent. Whatever. Folk should do what they want. The boomers will put us right of course.

Yes, best to cook at home with the bad oils 😋

I thought that was how they usually parked in Pattaya. Nothing to see here.

Fuddy duddies, boring b’stards and teetotallers trying to stop people having fun as usual. If you don’t want to drink, don’t do it. Just move on and set your boring thing up away from everyone else. Same with the whiny farangs that live here and moan about having water thrown on them. Just quietly disappear at that time. Nobody cares. Just stop trying to ruin it for the normal folk.

Gawd 😔

But to vet them? There are obvious pointers but even the meekest and seemingly dainty of fragile little souls can instantly turn into a monster and give you a right old savaging. They’re a bit weird like that.

I’m a little bit right of centre but completely agree with Jing’s assessment. Anyone who thinks the guy is fit for office or can’t at least have a quiet snigger at the OP needs their head read.

Agreed. It won’t go on though. He’s just angling for a deal. But probably not a good idea to take on the CCP.

It wouldn’t work. When he’s got something in his head, he doesn’t even listen to his best buddies. Senility, wealth and a hunger for power do not a great mix make.

With a bit of luck he’ll be in the ground before the end of his second. 👍

The locals get F all benefit from it.

A 1.2% drop? Stop the press! Hardly worth writing about. 120% drop would be more like it, and take the Russians with you. 😙
