Indeed. ”Appearances over substance” might well be the national motto.

My last trip to SR was in 2015, and the place was overrun by the same social retards who amass at places like King Power. Haven’t been back since. YMMV.

Another day, another greedy, outstretched hand demanding tea money. Shameful! ????

Yep. They don’t like competition.

That was my question as well. The boot licking is not a good look, Thailand!

^ Great job of proofreading. ????

Gotta take a quick break from the war crimes and barbarism to show everybody we’re still good Christians!

Accepting.
