  1. I'd be all for it if it weren't for the retina/iris scan requirement. I dont mind the fingerprints but scanning my eyes feels overkill and invasive.
  2. Plenty of things, but to name a few, there's going for a few hours of badminton, heaving a few beers, relaxing in the hills or by the beach, chilling with my pets at home, a good lie in. Regarding this forum, I don't usually post much, but I get pleasure from witty comments, like Bday Prangs on this thread. I used to like I think he was called Collin, the paraplegic guy, but I've not seen him on here for years.
  3.  How ironic that the language police's response also contains multiple errors...
  4. I look forward to seeing his face plastered over the news and to see what feeble excuse this one decides to use.
  5. I don't want to be 'that guy' but can't you buy one and put it in your place? I love having a hot bath and turning the jets on every couple of days. As a tall person I regularly have back pain and it helps a lot.
  6. I've switched between the two over the years, but currently Shopee is much better for me. Lazada has become expensive all of a sudden in comparison. Some sellers are on both platforms which is handy, but Shopee is a lot cheaper recently, especially with the 10% or 20% off vouchers. The coffee I buy is currently over 100 baht cheaper because of this.
  7. What type of questions do you ask that you'd consider students would still fail answering with a phone? AI is very good nowadays and I foresee this is going to make Thai students reading and listening skills even worse.
  8. It depends if you're holding onto your long term partner out of duty or because you still love her. I think men are naturally polygamous, but motive, such as religion and culture, can change this.
  9. I'm a bit confused as it says he missed the last 6pm bus, but the police were called at 6pm. So did the bus leave before 6? Also, just because it said he appeared drunk doesn't necessarily mean he was.
  10. Of course. What people want in a massage can be different. If you're into pleasure pain, I'd expect the men to be better for you, based on the word of others I know wanting that.
  11. I disagree with you on many things, but I 100% agree here. I don't want an old wrinkly auntie massaging me. I don't want to feel like I've been through 9 rounds with Mike Tyson. I want a relaxing massage by a beautiful woman who massages my ego and maybe something else.
  12. In the opposite way, if I'm in the UK and use my Thai card, should I therefore say to charge in pounds?
  13. Was the Chinese guy the chubby guy or the skinny guy? Who was number 3 who was not impressed that chubby stole his beer, then had the women hit him?
  14. Normally I would be annoyed by this, but this is not a normal temple. It is a living art project. The guy who built it (Chalermchai Kositpipat) refused funding from the government or larger corporations so he could maintain full creative control. He used to pay the upkeep costs himself from his art sales. I respect him for that.
  15. I see no reason to ruin these notes by putting a big crease down the middle of them, reducing their lifespan.
  16. Anyone know the smoke opacity percentage of their vehicles? Are we talking idle or under load? While it's good that the law is trying to reduce pollution, I doubt the poorer in society will be able to adhere to this.
  17. I was just about to say that I have a wallet with Shopee, so I checked and I now have this... I've generally payed by QR as I didn't see the advantage of moving money into the Shopee wallet.
  18. I couldn't do so on my previous three purchases in the last ten days. Maybe I need to update the app, or else it's just that free shipping may not be available on all items. Regarding buying most things online, I was like that a year or so ago, but I just got fed up of searching for so many best priced items, as the sellers can be cheeky or deceptive, and then there's voucher applicability. The filter options are also appalling. Like you though, I do find I'm using Shopee more. For tops and makro I like shopping in person. I prefer to choose my own food.
  19. Ive switched over the years. The best thing about Lazada is that it allows free shipping and other vouchers to be used at the same time. It also has a translate function on the app. Recently I look at the official sellers on both apps and choose the cheapest. I bought a Philips massager from Shopee at 300 baht cheaper. Today I ordered a Jisulife fan on Lazada that was over 500 baht cheaper. Some unusual items like fresh lotus seeds I can only find on Shopee.
  20. If you earn below the minimum monthly income you'll find yourself in that situation. Alternatively, if you are married, get a credit card through your wife. The card comes in your name, but the wife has to pay the bill. That's what I have with ttb anyway.
  21. I agree. Maximum sentences should be given to those who intentionally disfigure others for life. People willing to do this are a danger to society.
  22. And we can see where that has got us recently in Manchester with the killing of jews on another holy day.
  23. Would I pay that much, as a one off yes, but at over 3,000 calories for a few small plates, I'd rather keep my waistline in check for now.
  24. I'm surprised that people are complaining they can't be folded. To me that's a good thing. I usually go to the bank to get nice crisp notes because I'm fed up with the dirty folded ones. The newer 20 baht notes are a bit better, but the ones i have at the moment still have a big fold line down the middle making them age faster.
