Japs do it with porn!
I think I read on TV once they did it as revenge for WWII but maybe it’s for calling them Japs, who knows? -
90 posts and the answer to the OP is conclusive, up to you!

I always return to where I bought. I don’t think there should be any difference if you’re selling based on baht weight but I’m no expert.

Typically any laminate floor would use foam underneath and this is a specific foam for sound deadening in the U.S.
Use masking tape to connect the seams to each other to keep it in place.
I don’t know what’s available here.

I’ve taught my wife it’s okay to tip 10 to 50 baht around Bangkok and thank you seems rare.

Must be another submarine purchase that needs funding.
Actually it’s artillery that’s in the cue but you pinned the tail on the donkeys. -
The fact that you didn't hear about this one just shows how complicit the media is in pushing the narrative of the (white) male shooter.
Police talked with YouTube shooter hours before attack -- and say they didn't notice anything disturbing

If Trump and the Us believe for one moment what this tyrant is saying
and promising, than i have a tower in paris and a bridge in London
i want to sell,
These kind of ruthless people, will never ever let go of the nukes, simply
because this is the only ace card the have in their sleeves, and without
the threat of nukes, he's nothing, a nobody, so just like Iran, he will
not let go of them no matter what promises he will undertake....
You might want to read the article and realize that they are abandoning one nuclear test site in the north, how many do they have that are not part of the agreement. Also they stated they will stop nuclear testing, that says nothing of any other nuclear capabilities they already process.-

I think they did their best to be helpful and gave him what he wanted. There is no such thing as a western vegetarian breakfast. Ludicrous request. Regarding the egg: better well done than phlegmy and undercooked.
Agree except for eggs need to be over easy and runny for me.-

Many foreigners ideas for enforcement of all Thailands issues are accurate but the root of the problem is when the government comes down hard the Thai people cry its over burdening and excessive punishment because they are poor and have no money or choices to meet the mandates. A vicious circle as the riding in the back of open pickup trucks crackdown highlighted.
The same for larger fines for infractions to send a message to the population that they can’t afford. The west will jail you if you don’t pay. Thailand is not willing to impose that on the people to send a message and lock up poor people who can’t pay ฿5000 for running a red light or no helmet or no license etc.
It’s a game of appeasement they both play. The government doesn’t get to stern and punish them excessively and the people don’t rise up against them and are willing to overlook the foolishness that goes on amongst the elite in power.
Simple as that, a quid pro quo.-

The girls want free money. The men want free sex. They deserve each other.
So we’re full circle, everyone pays. -
35 years ago a 31 year old male friend after entering a competition on a chocolate bar, won a 16 day Spanish cruise trip for 2. At the time not being in a relationship and preferring not to take any of his male friends, decided to go alone, believing he would meet the girl of his dreams in the romantic setting of a Mediterranean cruise.
After a couple of days on the ship, he noticed that all the younger women were with boyfriends or husbands. On the third day he started to get hit on by elderly rich Jewish widows, mostly Americans looking for a toyboy romance or something more permanent. He told me that each time he went for a meal or relaxing by the pool, they would aim for him, trying to start conversations, asking if he had a girlfriend and some even invited him back to their cabins. He said that those elderly women really believed they could buy him but he wasn`t interested and eventually it became very irritating.
That was the first and last time my friend ever went on a cruise. He later did meet a lovely and beautiful Viennese woman on a bus in London. They dated, fell in love, were married and today now in his 60s, has 2 children, 3 grandchildren and all lived happily ever after.
Point is; money can`t buy attraction or love.
At 31 I’d have gone back to all those old gals cabins if they were cute just for the adventure,,for free! It beats sitting in a deck chair alone for a week. -
anyways: what do you guys see in this pic ?
A Swenson’s girls pelvic scan. Not so cute now huh?-

If you don't like Songkran, what are you doing living in Thailand?
This is their New Year's celebration.
If not about water fighting, it is a holiday that happens to center around water and the virtues for the coming year
It's good luck to have water tossed on you and talc.
Songkran is an absolutely wild and fun time!
My wife is Thai National and dislikes what’s become the contemporary festival behavior.
It may have something to do with having her breasts groped and necklace stolen while trying to defend herself as a teen girl or just being an adult now and not wanting to be soaked every time she leaves the house for a week.
Should she leave the country?-

Out of 3339 cases of drunk driving 356 licenses were confiscated. There’s a joke in there somewhere?

Absolutely, as noted before, I just needed somewhere to vent.
And if you want somewhere worse than Thailand for "face" issues, try Korea. My time there taught me how to phrase any question so that the answer would be "yes".
Then you can picture me, a younger American supervisor telling an older Korean carpenter, Mr. Park, his work was wrong and him arguing “ you don’t know, I know, 20 years I’m working, you don’t know!” (In a deep and assertive voice).
After showing him the blueprints he was given to follow were my source of criticism he responds “they don’t know, I know, my ways better!” To which I agreed may be true but explained my job was to make it look the the drawing and told him to fix it or go home. He begrudgingly fixed it and we got along fine after that.-

Can anybody think of one original Thai invention ever?

We went through all of this before we moved here. A Queen U.S. sheet will not fit a Thai King. If you have a Thai King sized bed use U.S. King size. I recommend getting standard pockets. Do not get deep as the fitted sheets might be a little loose. The flat is no problem.
FWIIW...
US king measure 76" x 80"
Thai King bed measures 72" x 77"
There is a California king and queen size option that can match Thai sizes closer. The pillow cases needed downsizing in our case.

I am building a roof in steel on a house.
The distance of the columns are 4.5 metres centre to centre.
The tiles on the roof are the CPAC concrete type (4 kilos per tile)
The only support of the Purlins in the Architect drawings are the green verticle lines.
I am think that that would not be adequate.
I am thinking of adding steel horizontal supports (green) as diagram A or adding steel diagonal horizontal supports (green) as diagram B to get triangles for extra strength to carry the weight of the concrete tiles.
I was thinking B but the Thai builder is saying A.
Your opinions appreciated?

My wife is learning to trust the purple line in the Waze navigation app.
As debt levels rise, more Thais struggle to keep up

Bank and money shop loans are given with guarantors, usually parents signing over their land. It’s bad form to decline to be the backstop for a Thai who asks you to co-sign for them, especially family.
