  1. Seemed eager for the Astra-Pfizer cocktail back in 2021.
  2. With this new Covid resurgence……anybody want to take bets on which vaxxed and boosted forum members will be the next to “stop posting”? The list is getting looooooong.
  3. Why does it have to be one or the other? I recently spent 3 months in Da Nang and was pleasantly surprised. It was night and day compared to my visits to Hanoi in the past (7-10 years ago) with the constant pestering by all sorts of trades from the pedicabs, shoe repair con-artists, cigarette lighter sellers who will follow you down the block and won’t take no for an answer. Doesn’t mean I’m giving up on Thailand. Just expanding my horizons. Can’t see how that’s a bad thing.
  4. Remember the “mix-n-match” approach (get one jab of each vaccine because of course….more is better) people were taking towards vaccines? No need to worry about potential interactions. 🙄 Very sciency. I wonder what brainless vaxtard came up with that kind of advice.
  5. There should be a tariff placed on online leftist ranting posts. Facebook, forums, wherever. You girls talk too much.
  6. what he really said… ”We’ve had four measles deaths in this country in 20 years. We have 100,000 autism cases a year. We have 38% of our kids now are diabetic or pre-diabetic. That should be in the headlines, When I was a kid, there were 2 million measles cases a year and none of them got headlines. And we had 400 deaths. We had deaths between 1 in 1,200 and 1 in 10,000. We have so many kids now who are afflicted by chronic disease. And the media never covers them. They only want to cover measles” https://nypost.com/2025/04/30/us-news/rfk-jr-says-diabetes-chronic-illnesses-pose-existential-threat-not-measles/
  7. it really depends on the location, but most waiters in any major city or college town in the US do quite well I have had many friends and roommates who were waiters in the 90’s. They would net $40-$80/hour for a 4 hour shift. They lived large.
  8. $30 for a burger, fries and a coke at 5 guys. Have to stand in line to order and pay at the register and later collect your own food at the counter. They still expect a tip.
  9. He constantly cuts and pastes from google. Never gives credit either. Intellectual fraud.
  10. You have so many cut and past comments from things that you’ve googled (and failed to attribute the source) that blathering on about others intellectual mediocrity is laughable. Feel free to deny it and I’ll post the proof.
  11. I won’t eat out in America anymore. Waiters cry if they get less than a 25% tip.
  12. $2.13 is the federal minimum wage for tipper workers. https://www.paycor.com/resource-center/articles/minimum-wage-tipped-employees-by-state/
  13. That’s what their use of the laughing emoji is for every time someone mentions their “coincidence”. They’re laughing with the vaccine injured…certainly not at them.
  14. Why would you take a screenshot from a completely different forum and sub forum and then insert it here in the off the beaten track forum? A completely different forum. It can’t be a mistake because you would literally have to click over to another forum, take a screenshot….then come back, click on this forum….then the subforum….then the topic and then post and add the screenshot. Is it because you’re dishonest, or because you’re jabbed to the gills and afraid of your future health? Probably both.
  15. And comments like this come from people who make comments like the one below on a thread about an Epstein survivor committing suicide. Sick.
  16. Thin skinned because someone wants to flex about shopping at IKEA? Hilarious. You just demonstrated the same thing that you previously denied. Nobody needs to justify themselves for paying however they want. Enjoy IKEA
  17. Yes. Read the whole thread. We are being called dinosaurs. Told we are incapable of assembling a simple piece of furniture (I prefer quality furniture myself), and expected to have some sort of argument as to why we prefer cash. I’ll let you read up on the studies of those who pay cash vs cashless.
  18. I don’t care how people pay for their stuff. But….it always seems to be the cashless crowd that denigrates those who prefer cash and not the other way around. Why is that? I’d love to see the stats of people who pay cash vs cashless and how much debt they carry. I shouldn’t need “an argument” for paying cash. It’s not even worthy of a conversation let alone a debate.
  19. It’s accurate. I’ve been playing the system for years. It even works with “pickup” orders. For example…. I have stood outside McDonald’s, ordered on foodpanda, walked in and picked it up for much less than ordering at the register. It’s a crazy business model, but I like it. For groceries, I will usually limit my order amount in order to maximize the capped discount. Sometimes, late at night, I’ll make multiple orders from 3 different 24 hour Tops stores (Ekkamai, Thonglor and Phrom Phong) and save ฿500+/- on a ฿2500ish total order.
  20. Great idea! Very “fight club”-esque. I’m also thinking about setting up some kind of cashless system on my phone and then going to the market during peak rush hour to buy a single soda, and subsequently fumble with my phone for 10 minutes at checkout just for fun.
  21. The deals for groceries/supermarkets is/was awesome. Call me lazy, but it’s nice not having to drive on Sukhumvit to get large/heavy orders and also utilize constant discount codes that give 20-30% off (capped at 160-180 baht usually). It was cheaper to have grocery items delivered (always free delivery) than buy it in the store. Prices were the same on Foodpanda as in Lotus, Big C, Tops and Gourmet Market. Same selection too.
  22. Foodpanda is far more than just restaurant food. I could choose from multiple Lotus, Big C, Tops, Gourmet Market etc. Stand alone florists, butchers, fruit markets, pharmacies… Foodpanda definitely did incur losses. Impossible not to with the deals offered. All my grocery shopping for years was done using 20-30% off coupons (plus free delivery) and the prices are the same as in the market, including the in store discount/sale price. “happyfresh” delivery service was the same but they went out of business much faster. It was similar with many restaurants too. Cheaper to get food delivered than go to the restaurant…and living on Sukhumvit…it would still arrive hot. Special deals also just for foodpanda that could also use discount codes on top of too. I’m thankful that foodpanda was willing to incur those losses. It was good while it lasted. I didn’t ever think it would last this long.
