  1. The German man removed his clothes telling onlookers to prepare for the würst! 😱
  2. So exactly how are you going to decide on "fairness " ? Some arbitrary central body deciding on prices? Do some research on how capitalism has in fact been the most successful system for the improving welfare of its citizens. Unless you prefer the sorts of administrations of USSR and other communist countries. ?
  3. So it’s TACO WHATEVER he does??? In fact when he wanted to strike around 2 weeks ago Nettenyahu persuaded him to hold off. Heads I win tails you lose eh?
  4. So which of the following major terrorist organisations do USA or Israel sponsor. Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthi??? And which of those on October 7th launched a major attack on Israeli citizens. Did Israel do it to itself or did its main ally USA?? Now would you like another think about what country that might be - then look in the mirror for who the real "idiot" might be. 🥴
  5. It seems to escape your understanding what TACO means. Are you struggling to understand that the going to war with Iran is the polar opposite of "chickening out"? 🙄
  6. Then you don’t understand trading markets- they are based on what markets judge the price will be at a given point in the future. With 20% of the global oil supply choked off via the closure of the straits of Hormuz (40% of the Asian supply comes through that route) there’s going to be a significant shortage of supply. Would you sell something at the price it was yesterday when you KNOW it’s going to be much more expensive a few weeks down the road ?
  7. I’ll take that bet- shall we say 50k baht.? It’s called dynamic pricing and is based on supply and demand - the same as anything including air fares. You’ve had an entire chunk of significant supply removed (the ME airline routes ) and the demand remains and is channeling to carriers not using that route. Once the ME routes are restored supply will be created and fares will drop to reflect that. Gonna put your money where your mouth is..?
  8. Yes, a civilian carrying aircraft in Iranian air space when even Qatar, UAE etc. (effectively whole of ME) have closed their airspace… 🙄.
  9. You said so yourself he was from Liverpool! The Swedish immigrants gangs problem is well documented
  10. A toxic combination- a mouthy scouser and a likely member of one of those immigrant crime gangs sowing chaos in Sweden.. 🥊
  11. Indeed, I come from Dalston (U.K.) where you’re considered overdressed if having more than one ear… 😱
  12. Mexico seems an attractive alternative just now… ☠️
  13. While rice might be something of a canary in the coal mine, it’s symptomatic of a general malaise causing Thailand to lose ground against both its near neighbours and global competitors. A general arrogance and failure to adapt its practices- along with a falling standard of education vs its peers (see its sluggish GDP expansion) will continue to blight its future. Depressingly there’s no sign of political change on the horizon to even begin to address these issues.
  14. Yes I’ve no doubt you’d have stepped up - beating him senseless with your keyboard…. 💪
  15. That’s somewhat conclusive! If someone appeared at my sister’s door like that I’m not stopping until it’s guaranteed he can’t return. ☠️
  16. It’s the guy you need to pay! How much you offering? We can negotiate….
  17. Perhaps a Valentine’s message "Roses are red , violets are blue I’ve got a knife - get in the van.." 😘
  18. The actual moral of the story is 1) BARTER! 2) The subsequent "congress" with your girlfriend would be better for her as you would have lasted longer - perhaps even up to the full minute! 😘
  19. In further developments a new sign has been put in the window. "In the end we expect the wurst"…. 😘
  20. That’s exactly what the masseuse said as he "finished"….
  21. Ultimately it’s up to the individual to take responsibility for their own safety. Motorcycle riding is made plain in virtually every policy under "Main exclusions". He simply bought insurance and didn’t take 5 minutes to check those - or ignored them . He is an adult
  22. Most insurers will identify some of the major classifications especially motorcycle riding and the specifics (you must hold a licence in your home country for the vehicle). This is no small print get out - he’ll have not bothered to read the main exclusions.
  23. My black Bakelite phone still works fine with all apps including "Ye olde porn ggilf " site. None of this new fangled "flip" nonsense for me! 😤
  24. Brings to mind the quote "If you want an argument against democracy have a 10 minute conversation with the average voter " 🙄
