  1. The difference is in degree of difficulty in pronunciation. ”Lotus’s” is unlike the other two examples you gave in that it requires two consecutive “s” sounds. Clearly, this isn’t the greatest branding decision from a marketing perspective. However, the real irony here is that you’re busting my chops re: my command of the language while I need to explain all of the above to you. ????

  3. Much more important than the “little head” has oft times led me to believe. After all, once the horizontal mambo is done, you’ll need to find other common interests - unless, of course, you’re the type who prefers to rent by the hour (not judging!)
  4. If you can’t see the difference between the examples you just gave and “Lotus’s” then perhaps it’s you who needs the remedial English. BTW, it’s “Tops” - not “Top’s.” ????
  5. Submitted a report with only the required fields filled in. Rejected because I didn't include contact phone (not a required field.) Submitted a second report with phone number included. Rejected because I didn't include the name of my condo project (also not a required field.) Submitted a third report which included condo name. Approved. Third time's a charm, apparently, but what a farce! ????
  6. I miss having the option to make changes to orders after they’ve been placed. Also, whose bright idea was the name, i.e., “Lotus’s?” Obviously no one whose first language is English.
  7. Update: After eight straight days of inquiring with customer support, problem appears to have been resolved.
  8. For years, I’ve used the DTAC app (iOS) to pay my cell phone bill with a U.S. credit card. Until recently, the app has been reliable and rock solid for me; never a problem. However, for the past seven days, I’ve been unable to make a payment using the app. The following error message appears every time: Is anyone else having this problem? BTW, I’ve contacted customer support - both by phone and by Facebook messenger - and no one seems to have a clue. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app and power cycling my phone to no avail.
  9. Yep. There’s always at least one of those “I couldn’t care less about a problem unless it affects me personally” types in every crowd.
  10. The chances of China invading Taiwan are slim to none. Here's why:
  11. Some U.S. banks will send OTP to your Skype phone number, others will not. For example, I can receive OTP via SMS to my Skype number from Capitol One Bank, but not from US Bank. Also, I have two credit cards from Chase Bank. Chase doesn’t play the OTP game, and the bank will allow you to use an international phone number as your main contact number.
  12. I’ve done it once since I’ve lived in Thailand. Note: I had to go through three different Bangkok Bank branches before I found an employee at the Emqartier branch who knew how to do an international wire transfer and who didn’t give me the usual BS stories about why “you cannot.”
  13. My goodness! Suggest doing something like this in the U.S., and you’ll be decried as a Marxist.
  14. This might go down in history as the first time a foreigner taught a Thai anything.
  15. “This time, I’ll be the one doing the pounding,” she says.
  16. I've been out of the Apple loop for a while. I'm assuming the M1 version is still in stock at Apple Stores around TH, then?
  17. I was just browsing the the Apple TH site, and the only MacBook Pro models listed there were the new versions w/ the new Apple M2 chip. According to the site, these new notebooks won't be available for another month. Has anyone seen any of the Intel i5 or i7 versions still for sale around BKK anywhere? Seems like there should be some good deals to be had somewhere.
