Since the results came out lots of mental breakdowns....

What is one thing you learned from lefties?
daveAustin replied to Celsius's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
That they do not do opinion along with humour as evidenced by this post. They immediately go on the attack if something doesn't fit their small field of view with things like 'you are so thick' etc. 😴 Very strange breed, indeed. -
That's what the left does. They do not do opinion very well. Yes, Trump is a douche, but he just has a different opinion and people clearly like the guy. And what is wrong with wanting to make one's country better? This whole maga thing (highly stigmatised now--if Obama invented it it wouldn't be a thing) is what America was wholesale back in the day... you guys have just forgotten what you are about. For supporting Brexit (yes, sorry, very off topic) and wanting my own country to have say-so on its own policy, I'm apparently racist. It is divisive and damaging as is the inflammatory tat coming from the democrats. All you guys whinging at Trump and his supporters ad nauseam need to come together a bit and find common ground. Op, just say you're a yank that does not agree with its leadership and would prefer to make America worse. Btw, did he open up the FBI files on JFK yet?

Thailand's Expats Urged to Register with TRD for Tax, Says Expert
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Totally get that dude but Thailand is taking the Michael a bit here. Anyone with half a brain knows what they’re doing … visit and then <deleted> off! They (the <deleted> in office) do not really want you here. Will see how it goes but if they start bunging silly thresholds tax then they can <deleted> off and baulk at a booming Vietnam! -
Thailand's Expats Urged to Register with TRD for Tax, Says Expert
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Become a Thai citizen? 😂 How long will that take, and to what end? One could recite the anthem, speak all of it and know all of history, but one is still a lowly foreigner. You’re way out of you’re depth, dude! -

daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Guys, they do not care about either of you. In fact, these b’stards will make policy to get you out and walk in your country smiling. Just play the 180 game or get the F outta dodge. Let the Ruskies have it 👍 -

Filipina's Viral Video Criticising Thai Women Sparks Backlash
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
No, I get that, it was more flippant and generalising (horrible word). There are some amazing Thai ‘one-man’ women out there and I know some rather pleasant ones as friends/acquaintances. I just choose to keep the wall up nowadays. -
Filipina's Viral Video Criticising Thai Women Sparks Backlash
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
White, Thai, Filipina, they are all cold and devious heartbreakers with an agenda, especially the pretty ones 🙂 I did chuckle a bit at the op though as Thai women across the board are typically very money-driven and money is a MAJOR reason in why they pick a man… Thai or foreign. The backlash is big because the truth hurts. Can’t two people just be into each other anymore despite the money thing? -
Expats and Retirees Excluded in Thailand's Citizenship Grants
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
No surprise there. Just be thankful they don’t make it tougher. That is coming I guess. Citizenship: just so long as Thais don’t have it easy in my country. Property, voting, rights etc. Oh wait! 🙂 -
Thailand’s BRICS dreams: Up in the air but not grounded yet
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Heavyweight aholes. Sorry, but all these countries are run by questionable entities with few if any morals. Don’t do it, Thailand, you’re better than that. Oh wait, who runs this place again? -
House Passes Bill Banning Physical Punishment of Children
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Let’s hope it is enforced, esp in schools. Nobody wants unruly brats (and perhaps a clip round the earhole worked back in the day), but good parenting/schooling should bring up decent kids without having to thrash them. What does that teach them? When I found out the local primary was whacking the kids routinely, including my boy, for trivial stuff like late homework, I sat down with the main teacher in question, had a right go at her and threatened her with the cops. She was properly embarrassed and never did it again, but it goes on wholesale despite supposedly being against the law. -
Forget your puffed up acronyms and endless meetings, simply ban burning in the region along with smoke belching vehicles in cities. Big fines/jail time for perps. I cannot believe that in 2024 bleedin archaic two stroke tuk-tuks and filthy sawngthaews are still allowed to operate, and Thailand is relatively rich and advanced compared to those other places. Move on!

Analysts Predict Baht Decline if Trump Wins US Presidency
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Let’s hope he wins then. We could all do with that extra 0.66 😂 Baht is still WAAAAYY overpriced. The real value (yes it is propped up—look who’s moving monies around) is somewhere around 40.- 72 replies

Thailand to Implement 300-Baht Tourism Tax Starting with Air Travel
daveAustin replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It’s still there, dude, ‘absorbed’ in tickets. Every country does it. This is just an op-top-of grab. If claims on the supposed inclusive insurance are successful, I will eat my hat. -
Room with View or Quiet Room: Your priority is?
daveAustin replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
He does that. He also repeats himself incessantly. Count how many times you see 'quiet room'. 😋 All good though, it'd be rather boring if everyone were ramrod straight and normal. I pick view over quiet, although cannot stand neighbour noise, which I don't currently get. Have a school nearby which can get ridiculous with teachers screaming in microphones... I don't get why they have to do that when the kids are right by them. When the schools are out, it is bliss.
