It is interesting to notice how America's reaction along with it's leader being able to handle this pandemic versus other countries.

People continuing to defend Trump, ( I did slightly for about a week), are quite the characters are they not? And yes, I am talking in generalities..

Why is this newsworthy when they continually test negative? 

Well, they are the leaders of the country. Maybe you would like some news about how much they are 'fleecing' regular Americans right now (working class). Or maybe the continued favortism towards the wealthy

Oh, did I mentioned the rampant inablity to be a leader? #greedy #rich #apathethic #liar

Possible but more likely Corona related as they think it's carried by foreigners

Your exactly right.

Even going into 7-11. The Thai mentality (from overhearing them) is along the lines as why are foriegners here. That and not handsome, ???? 5555 But thats for me..

My point is, it seems among some Thais, they have the view aimed at 'foriegners.' Ironic as they continue to want Chinese coming. I guess they aren't foriegners, rather, those with money from the north.

I live in Nakhon Phanom and the majority of Farangs I meet just blank me off they are just not interested so i just accept it get on with it no skin off my nose???? 

Well, for me, when I first got here, I had the mentality along the lines as 'I'm here for the Asians.' Yes, ignorant, and unexperienced I know.

However, now that I don't see farlangs that often, I will make some effort to say 'hello.'

I get the feeling many Europeans don't like to say a friendly 'hello' especially if an American isn't wearing 'neat' clothes...I say 'American' as often our clothes are a clear indication...

Too bad...⛱

(thinks about my 100$ blue nike shoes)

Personally, I think TRUE-Thailand sucks. But hey, I'm not into HBO, or the 'football.'  Kinda interested in HBO.

3BB has much better serivce IMO. They seem to be a bit cheaper also.

Notice how TRUE always mentions doing a 'survey' but theres not much change...yeah..

The point is that even a 48 hour fast has an effect on your metabolic mechanisms, improving your fat burning ability even after the fast ends.

Yeah I read that before also. However, I should meniton it was just for a morning workout. For example, don't eat before your morning workout. I forgot and not sure whether coffee is okay. No adds.

40 hour fasts sounds as lovely as inflicting pain on yer own testicles

Hell, I can't even sleep if she don't get it out of me or hungry!

Wow, 40+ hours. Very admirable and disciplined.

The most I ever fasted for was a bit for lent or when I run in the mornings. (skip food before the run).

Are there any Americans that actually still believe in 'trickle down' economics? LOL. Particularly, those over 45 years old...

Hello! They are both corrupt and against 'human rights.'

Well you see what is the most odd out of this whole alcohol ban is that it seems after a huge $700M pledge was announced by a major alcohol distributer figure (whatever) the ban was lifted.

Simply, put, it's a joke. Not to mention leads one to think how major political decisions in this country are effected by similar 'lack of "legal" donations.'

I know this is cliche to say but seeing how there seems to be ongoing 'inconviences' for foriegners trying to enjoy their trip and 'pasttime' not to mention come to spend, I can see how many folks will begin to form more a negative view about here.

Time to introduce the alcohol ban again. Should be one of the last things that gets lifted. 

Yeah I used to be a child too. Sometimes with the keyboard also. ????

I already heard a 5-year old saying this yesterday...

All the Thai Visa posts that are and were in support of either British conservative policies along with American political agendas, both Republican and DEM, all are the ones that have honored such 'moronic' and 'blind faith' in the establishments.

Sure, we need them.

Ha ha. Nice one.

 

I know many rich Chinese and they tell me that most people of their class have been avoiding Thailand like the plague (no holidays here and no investment) because there is too much partying with alcohol in public and it offends them????

Frankly, I'd rather care less to know 'rich Chinese.' Let alone put up with them, on a daily basis. Real petty folks they seem to be..Just my opinion.

Unfortunately its not all about you. Enough Thais not complying with the restrictions to make the government use draconian measures. Rules are rules, no exceptions.

After reading this I think of one word...'school boy'

Still unable to buy for another month. <deleted> that! I want to drink.

Stuffed peppers with beef and cheese, cranberry jam, cranberry juice, and burgers! ????
