One girl I dated asked me if Superman was real. After a pause and a little inward snigger I said ‘umm, I don’t think so’.

Yes, good to see Thais getting on the streets and providing more embarrassment for the soldier that thinks he knows how to run a country.

Thais as diligent and apt as anywhere when trained up. You’re hardly going to be seeing Somchai from the village playing with the rods!

Better than burning fossil fuels, esp coal which itself emits a huge amount of radiation.

Didn’t attend for the loss of face and target on his forehead. Wimp!

What a cock n bull story

Nothing to do with covid. He wouldn’t even have gone if that were the case. There is ALWAYS a reason why pooh does or doesn’t do something. It’s pathetic and yet extremely satisfying all the same.

It’s tempting but can’t help but feel for the bloke. Majorly sucks, not to mention the loss of face. Why on earth do fellas trust their women like that though?

???? It would have been even more of a story had said snake moseyed on over to her upturned car and bit her on the bum.

Welcome to Thailand! World leaders get "kai yang" for dinner So they’re having grilled egg? ????

Well Prayut’s hardly going to say anything like that is he. For a start he wouldn’t be so bold and he probably doesn’t even know where the Asia-Pacific region is.

Pooh was kind, told the truth and was much much better looking ????

Those instances are more cash oriented but shops with terminals would really benefit from the likes of Google- and Apple-pay. It is infinitely faster and more convenient, esp for grocery shopping. Found I didn’t need my wallet for weeks on end back in the world. But of course harder for the old folk and dinosaurs to adopt… counting out their coppers to get the exact price holding everyone up. That is infuriating but is not the method being discussed here. The QR code thing is often slower than cash.

Not too hard to work out. It’s called tactics, to try to get the ref to call a foul, but is thankfully less an issue nowadays with VAR etc. Anyway, dignity and ice hockey? Isn’t that the hobby where they fight every 5 minutes and dressed up in so much foam that you could drop off a cliff and not be hurt? ????

As opposed too what, meaningless dribble on the likes of facebook and other 'out there' junk? Always cringe when folk say don't read MSM, do your own research etc, which basically means they'll believe anything other than what the big researchers have found out. The earth is automatically flat if the BBC or CNN say it's round, etc etc. ????

Cash is simple compared to the systems they have in place here, but with Applepay I’ve not needed to take my wallet out for like weeks on end. Fantastic system esp when you have facial recognition enabled. It was a major drag coming back here and seeing they hadn’t adopted it yet. Get yourself a smartphone bro, they are easy. ????

That’s a good image. Invite tourists back to Thailand to save the ailing tourist industry, then subject people to degrading and unnecessary police-state-like searches! They’ll have them at the airports next. Pretty sad really.

They should all be seized and sold to pay for missiles to fire into Moscow.

Read more here than back ‘home’. Did two 6-700-pagers last week actually, though currently on a bit of a binge. The noise doesn’t bother me (where excessive noise usually does)… when in the zone, it’s not an issue. Rarely bother with paper over here; having them on the phone means one can read—and acquire practically any title—on a whim.

And what are you going to talk about, bro?

Prayut Says He Is Still Fine that’s a shame

If you want to go cashless, PLEASE introduce Applepay and similar at stores in Thailand. The current system with people fiddling around, entering numbers etc etc ad nauseam is a joke. Along with security & convenience with digital payments should be time saved. Getting stuck behind someone for 5 minutes trying in vain to pay for their groceries is absolutely baffling.

Thailand to Become International Hub of Electric Vehicles Here we go. There’s that word again. And I hope they do, albeit a fair way to catch China which has something like a million charge points.

Don’t sweat it, that’s what like 99% of early adopters did, while numerous others misplaced passwords & keys to their 50btc mined packets (2 million coins permanently lost isn’t it?). Had one hand on the btc client back in 09 (my spare laptop could’ve happily mined), but didn’t bother as was busy doing other tat. Millions of stories like that. Main thing is least you’re in profit. ????

Easy to mock when brought up in the West and Thai males can be especially fragile, but reckon the pressures are higher here. When you bring face and subservience to authority and elders into the mix, it makes those that are susceptible all the more likely to struggle.
