'Delicious taxes': Thai protesters use Japanese cartoon hamster to mock government

A diabolically clever tactic…

Challenge the nonsensical and ridiculous clowns in government to an endless game of “Who can be the silliest?”

Okay General…your move. Surely someone with a closet-full of comic opera costumes can ‘out-silly’ a bunch of youngsters.

Personally I can't see him going quietly. Don't be suprised if a few bombs start going off or being found. 

You may be very well be right.

After all…Prayut (and Suthep) conspired to create the 2014 street violence which gave Prayut an excuse to hijack the government. Lies, fraud, and treachery are a major part of his job description.

And Prayut has already shown that he is more than willing to attack and inflict harm on the Thai people…to get what he wants.

He's been a greedy, immoral, hypocrite for years and it's made him filthy rich...he's not going to stop now.

Drafting of soldiers in the new normal

More timely, innovative, and bold thinking from Thailand's military elite.

Slave labor for Thailand’s many thousands of brave, patriotic, Generals must be absolutely fit and ready to serve. The rigors of national security demand nothing but the best slave labor available.

It certainly wouldn’t do to have some feeble, unhealthy, non-socially-distanced soldier shining the General’s 'new normal' shoes or washing Mrs General’s 'new normal' designer underwear.

18 illegal Myanmar migrants, Thai woman land in jail despite offer of bribe

For a transaction of this type, a 70 K ‘incentive payment’ is terribly insulting.

Vigilant, hardworking government officials risk their lives protecting the homeland against evil foreigners. They deserve fair and appropriate compensation for their selfless, heroic efforts.

This now the “New Normal Bribery”...and wrongdoers cannot expect discounts.

Garland-seller’s son offers lesson in humility

Refreshing to see someone with a sincere and principled sense of values. The successful future of the country depends on young people like this.

Seeing as the Thai army has killed more Thais in recent history than they have foreigners; I’d say these lot are immensely brave. 

The...only....real...purpose of the Thai army is to threaten and point weapons at Thai people.

Their only other function is to occasionally dress up for Hi-So parties and try to look pretty.

If Thailand were ever invaded by some foreign 'threat'....the Thai army would surrender so fast they probably wouldn't even have time to try and sell their gear.

Army to Buy B1.35bn Aircraft to Replace An Old Plane

Another brilliant, far-sighted move by the Hero-General and his heroic band of well-dressed warriors.

While others are wringing their hands and moaning about silly distractions like the economy…the Fearless Leader stays focused on the priority issues facing Thailand. As all correct-thinking people know...lavish, extravagant, luxurious transportation for the military elite is absolutely essential to ensure the country's security. And security is job one.

All true patriots joyously praise the nation’s leadership....who remain battle-ready and poised to meet any and all challenges.

Security agencies to monitor anti-government student activities

Of course. The people's safety is the government's top priority...and the people must be made safe from themselves.

Gov’t reaffirms people’s safety is top priority

After, of course, the generals have taken in their monthly tribute...in the form of salaries, wages, payments, incentives, commissions, bonuses, compensations, donations, offerings, shares, dividends, gratuities, fringe benefits, etc etc.

Youth launch protest against 'deep-rooted Thai dictatorship

You have to applaud their idealism, respect their patriotism, and admire their courage....but the odds are still stacked steeply against them.

Unfortunately…the greedy, opportunistic gang of thugs that has stolen their country will only leave when they are forced out at gunpoint by new gang of greedy, opportunistic thugs.

And the cycle of uniformed banditry will continue….

Saowaluck told Sanook that when the customer arrived in a Honda Civic...

What kind of 'large, male....tough guy celebrity fighter drives a freaking Honda Civic?

Visit your neighbor for a friendly and amiable chat.

Tell him (quietly) that someone has damaged your car. Let him know you’re telling him this because of your close friendship and you want him to be careful...as there are vandals about.

Then tell him (with just the trace of an evil smile) that the wax on your car contains a very powerful…but very slow acting toxin that is released when the surface is scratched. A special farang poison so lethal that the slightest contact will ultimately result in a painful and lingering death. Of course you don't worry because you have an antidote...but the person who damaged your car is in deep trouble.

Remind him again to be careful, tell him again how much you value his friendship...and return home. Make sure to smile and wave whenever you see him.
