  1. They could have made a poster about Mohammed instead. Then there wouldn't be any problems.
  2. More than 44 million White British people committed sexual assaults last year? 🤔
  3. I flew BKK-LHR with Eva about a month ago. One suitcase was 23.1kg and the other was over 24kg but they let it go. They didn't even ask about my backpack which was over 8kg when I weighed it at home. Also, I booked BKK-LHR-NCL with trip.com and was informed that I would have to self-transfer my suitcases from T2 to T5 at LHR. At check-in they said no problem we can send them straight to NCL. Thank god as the transfer from T2 to T5 was horrendous even without suitcases. ☹️ The flight was less than half full though. Got a whole 3 seats to myself 😊
  4. I don't think I'll stop laughing for at least a week 🤣
  5. So a man is firing an assault rifle into the air to celebrate new year. A neighbour tells him to stop but the man shoots at him 3 times. The neighbour then shot him in self defense. What does this have to do with race or the neighbour's job? 🤔
  6. RIP 🙏 I wasn't a big fan of the comic strip but the TV series was pure genius
  7. All of this overshadows the real crime. That the British royal family (Germans) are the descendents of kings and queens that stole the land that rightfully belongs to the British people.
  8. I've just completed the process today and it was very easy. Went to the bank today to register my face. Pretty busy as it's the first day after the long holiday but not too bad. The app asks for a lot of unnecessary information like home country and address in Thailand which they already know. The receiving bank's name has to be entered manually so I just wrote HALIFAX. There was a scary dropdown menu regarding the source of income / reason for transfer. There were only 3 options which were 'portfolio investment', 'income from work' and 'real estate purchase' although I'm not sure of the exact wording. I chose 'income from work' as it's effectively the money I sent here while working in China. The face scan took about 5 or 6 attempts. Half of the failures were due to the exchange rate changing. Also, it was done after dark so maybe more effective in daylight. 🤔 I sent 250k THB and the rate was about 50 satang above the mid-market rate. Not too shabby though as the baht is very strong ATM. I was expecting the fee to be the maximum (฿400) but it was only ฿99. A slip was generated for the transfer which stated that it was in progress and could take up to 5 business days to the US and 2 business days / immediate for other countries; it took less than 5 minutes 🙂
  9. I agree. Much better and more intuitive...for now
  10. Just coming to the end of it now. Most of the jokes are cringeworthy except Jimmy Carr's rare appearances, as you said. Good attempt at bringing back the old British farce but it's too dated. It might work better in a crowded cinema but those days are gone.
  11. Well done again Thailand. You're fighting wars with 3 of the 4 countries that border your country. Don't worry, you'll win them all. Just like every student wins at school.
  12. People are free to send me a personal message. I may respond 🙂
  13. I suggest that Algeria pays reparations to Europe for the millions enslaved by the Arab / Ottoman empires and the Barbary Pirates. Then they can talk Turkey with France 🤔
