It doesnt appear to be unlivable for my Thai daughter.

If I could buy a home on it then yes. My daughter earns 20k/month and can easily get a mortgage and buy a house with that.

It's mainly Americans obsessed by health insurance. People from other countries usually don't bother.

Back home it was cold and wet so my house was the only place I could sit all day. Here it's warm and sunny and I can spend all day outside, so I no longer need a big house.

I doubt it would be possible for many men to stay single in Thailand. Once they find out you were single they would hunt you down. Resistance is useless!

Don't any of these people have gates? If you don't want people coming into your property lock your gate!

I've lived here 14 years and never interacted in Thai society.

I wouldn't have hung around, no point in getting involved in other people's arguments. I usually manage to hide from arguments happening in my own household. Avoid all confrontation is the best way to live life!

Not sure you need to go out to fireworks. I can stand on my balcony at home and see the Loi Kratong celebrations. Not to mention, less chance of a rocket in the ear. Surprised you manage to leave your hospital bed at all, with your extensive collection of unusual medical ailments.

The cheerleaders to which you referred were shot by a Latino. As I pointed out in my post directly after you hated on elderly white guys.

I'd feel safer in the US with a concealed carry, than risk my elderly martial arts skills against drug dealers, homeless, and gang members.

I'm not keen on getting rat diseased moat water thrown on my head/face. And don't want to be knocked off my m/c by drunks or people throwing buckets of ice and water over me as I drive along the road. But if you enjoy it, why not! I avoided socialising during Songkran, but was back out as normal this week. I have no problem mixing with much younger Thai ladies, but zero interest in mixing with thuggish drunken young males from the UK/Oz/NZ.

You only repeat the teenage black persons statement. Do you have some problem which makes you exclude the elderly white persons statement?

Can't beat ivermectin injections at the vet. My vet charges 100-150bht a time and 2 injections seem to last my rabbits 2-3 years.

Black guy was trying to open the door. White guy was inside with gun. Presumably everyone has the right to stop someone breaking and entering their home.

Still 40c in CM in the afternoons, near 5pm now and down to 37c. Been hiding in my bedroom all aft, air-con managed to get it down to 30c.

Female independence is created by welfare. No welfare in Thailand so no female independence.

To be fair, If a large thuggish looking guy was trying my front door in an attempt to enter my home, I might shoot first and ask questions later as well. Especially if it were after dark and in a gang problem area of town. Obviously that wouldn't be the case in a car park (cheerleaders), or a child knocking a ball into my garden.

Q: What steps are you taking to stop climate change? A: None, like all the other alarmists. So while you claim not to be ignorant, you are apathetic which is just as bad!

Fixed it for ya!

Garden shooter doesn't look like an old white racist to me! Cheerleader shooter, Pedro Rodriguez age 25 doesn't appear to be old or white either.

Half naked women rubbing themselves against you.

In my late 60s do I really need to think and plan?

I figured out how to generate 80% of my household electricity. What's your contribution to your cause? I'm betting nothing.

It hasn't happened yet, and all the big boys are spending millions on beachfront estates.
