Worst Joke Ever 2025
farang51 replied to warfie's topic in Jokes - Puzzles and Riddles - Make My Day!
You postet the same joke twice in the same post. You and oxo1947 (see below) are way to serious, you seem to forget you are in a joke thread. In my post I even used a smiley to guide the people that may not get the joke about the same joke twice in the same post. -
Worst Joke Ever 2025
farang51 replied to warfie's topic in Jokes - Puzzles and Riddles - Make My Day!
It's getting worse with repeated content. We used to get a few days or at least a few posts before seeing the same joke again. 🤨😁 -
No matter which visa you apply for you must to have the needed documents. I found it much easier to get the DTV than the visas I have used earlier (Multi Entry Tourist and NON-O based on retirement). I applied for the DTV from my home country (Denmark) and I needed fewer documents for the DTV than for the other visas.

Are retirees moving to the new DTV visa - anybody done it?
farang51 replied to Scouse123's topic in General Topics
The DTV does not make any changes regarding the 90 days report. If you stay more than 90 days you have do to the 90 days report. -

We have had a couple of reports of people getting a 5 year license with a DTV, I haven't seen any report of people only getting 2 years. -
He failed, but he tried. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/09/21/us/trump-opponents-investigations.html

If you - or anybody else - has any evidence, then why don't you give it to the GOP'ers in the Senate or the House, they would be very happy to get it. Maybe there is a reason nobody has come forward with evidence.
-
Actually, only people with only half a brain cell knows that. There is no evidence that the charges were political. None! The GOP has tried to proof that, they couldn't. On the other hand there are plenty of proof that Trump tried to politicise the justice department when he was president, and he has promised to do it again to go after his opponents. That is one of the reasons experts says he fit the definition of a fascist.

180 days, which you can extend for another 180 days at an immigration office. Then you have to leave Thailand. You can come back the same day or the day after and get another 180 days, which you can extend at an immigration office, and so on for five years. We haven't had any reports yet of people extending, and we have seen different reports about what it will cost. Some says 1.900 baht, others says 10.000 baht. We will have to wait and see.

2500 fraudulent voter registration being investigated!
farang51 replied to riclag's topic in Political Soapbox
No. I do not think any country in the world allow people to vote if they are not eligible to vote, and that is how it is supposed to be. That said, the US is kind of special because you do not allow every citizen to vote (like convicts, people that lacks a driver's license or similar). Some states also makes it hard for eligible people to vote in certain areas using crazy laws, like limiting the voting places in populous areas, and making it illegal for others to give water to people water waiting for hours in lines in hot weather. And when people vote, it is not one man one vote, some votes are considerable worth more than other votes. -
2500 fraudulent voter registration being investigated!
farang51 replied to riclag's topic in Political Soapbox
Well, actually, registration fraud is the topic. That's what happens when you have to register to vote and when people are getting paid to register people. In more advanced countries, there is no need to register voters as all the eligible voters (citizens above the age threshold) are automatically allowed to vote. By the way, I hope you read this before jumping to conclusions about the culprits: "Speaking at a press conference Friday, Lancaster County officials urged calm and stressed that the election system did what it was intended to do in preventing fraud. The applications were not limited to a single party, and were collected in various spots across the county." -
People are prone to lying. A real news outlet usually check things and either do not bring the lies or at least questions them. And a real news outlet certainly do not intentionally doctor videos to further the lies. Mocking them when they yelled "lier" was very proper because that is something her opponent is extremely well known for being. People disturbing a rally is often thrown out, it also happens at her opponent's rallys. The "eating cats and dogs" went viral too, it was also a lie. Being the most popular (cable news) or going viral is not a guarantee for truthfulness.
-
Watch what really happened in the video I gave you instead and judge for yourself what really happened. If you are not completely ingulfed in the cult, it may make you think that perhaps you should not believe everything a cable news network says just because it is the most watched. The video I saw from Fox where they edit the Jesus is lord together with Harris' joke would make Leni Riefenstahl blush.
-
I will take that any day instead of calling people vermin, promising to jail the opponents and talking about camps for millions of people. There once were a GOP politician that also smiled, joked around, and he had a positive view of The US instead of describing The US as a hellhole. His name used to be mentioned a lot before Trump came along.
-
Are you really that easy to mislead? Maybe you should find your news somewhere else - please find a news outlet that will not lie or use videos that are doctored. It was not the "Jesus is lord" that made Harris comment about being at the wrong rally. It was the shouting of "Lies Liar Lies" (or something close to that, judge for yourself).

OK, then it is my unit that is defective. It is too late to get it replaced, though; it took me a couple of years with suspicion of high temperatures before I got a thermometer and could see how bad it is.
-
Model and make?
-
I think the specs on all models say that they can get to the desired temperatures. The question is whether they can do it in reality. The manual to my current one says to store frozen meat at -18 degrees and it certainly cannot get anywhere near that temperature. Again, I may have been unlucky with the one I got, but I do not want to buy a new one only to have the same problem. By the way, my room temperature is usually around 28 degrees which is probably not helping.
-
Any recommendations for a new refrigerator/freezer? I have three key wishes: 1. Freezer at the bottom 2. Width 60 cm 3. It needs to be able to maintain a temperature of max 3-4 degrees in the refrigerator and below -15 degrees in the freezer. It seems impossible to get a shop to guarantee the third point. I am not sure if it is because they do not understand what I am saying or because my current refrigerator/freezer is very much out of the norm, while all other models work fine. My current refrigerator/freezer, a Panasonic NR-BT228, is certainly not up to the job. If I get down to 5 degrees in the refrigerator, the freezer cannot get below -5 degrees. It has been like that since I bought it.

Your advice is sound when going from the airport to Bangkok. However, this thread is about a taxi from the airport to Pattaya. As far as I know, they do not use taximeter when going out of Bangkok.

Worst Joke Ever 2025

Great to know that the best possible help is on the way. We have seen how effective it is to prevent mass killings with AR-15 riffles. -
So, you have one person some 100 years ago - when the times was different and you did not have the means to check sources or facts the way you do today; his writings means that everything The New York Times has published since are lies and cover ups? Does that include the article where New York Times wrote this: "And having bet on Stalin's rise in the 1920's, Mr. Duranty remained loyally partial to his horse. The result was some of the worst reporting to appear in this newspaper." https://www.nytimes.com/1990/06/24/opinion/the-editorial-notebook-trenchcoats-then-and-now.html If all you can do is refer to a person dead long before I and most people in here were born, then you have failed miserable to prove that New York Times lies and cover up for the government. By the way, you can find newer examples of rogue journalists at New York Times; you can find those at any news outlets. The difference between the serious ones and the not serious ones is how they handle mistakes and errors.
