"we have a problem" is usually fixed with a brown envelope will likely need be a very fat brown envelope in Phuket or smaller brown envelope somewhere else but if he does not have a visa, he cannot stay to face charges so if they want him to face charges he will need a visa if he is not officially blacklisted he could also get a visa elsewhere and return but that is only if they let him leave, then see above or is there some way they can deny a foreigner to leave and not provide a visa for them to stay?

Violent clash between Thai and Filipino trans groups rocks Bangkok

Rainbow Wars.................🙃 -
i have never purchased bottle or any other product only the leaves and brewed them myself it is extremely common for sellers to add a little something extra (cough syrup is very common) you can also just chew the leaves as many people do but personally i would never trust any pre made product (just like i would never buy pre rolled joints)

NO, it is NOT an opioid it contains the alkaloid mitragynine which can produce opioid-like effects at high concentrations

Kratom is a VERY mild stimulant in my own experience, seriously, drinking tea or coffee is stronger it is calming like tea is compared to coffee as for addiction, it may be habitual no way would i say its addictive, and definitely nothing compared to benzos or harder stuff might be nice drink for you in mornings for pain relief during day (i did not have pains to relieve) i have drunk it as coffee alternative to reduce caffeine tolerance loads of people just sell on roadside, not sure if any advertise on facebook anymore, loads used to (don't use FB) it is also easy to grow

for myself i don't mind being left out when there is a group convo many times the family are here and only some speak English, those times it can be better to be left out lol but even when family do speak English very often they will converse in Thai in front of me but usually when the convo is just small talk or of no relevance to myself i never find it rude when Thais speak Thai regardless of who is in the room, or how it may feel but a foreigner speaking Thai is a completely different matter, especially if English is most convenient for those in the conversation

depends on setting and circumstance if you are in small setting, English is your first language and you are cutting the farang out of the conversation between his wife and yourself, that is very disrespectful, if for instance you are at a dinner or event with a few wives and/or talking to a group etc and farang is not the only one left out of the convo then that is completely different. If English is your first language, and you were having a convo with myself, and then you decided to talk to my wife in Thai (assuming i would not understand any) cutting me out of the convo, it would likely be the last convo you have with my wife or myself and would likely be cut short.

Yet another scam- This time a Samsung franchisee in Kalasin.
patman30 replied to Scouse123's topic in General Topics
take it to a samsung customer service centre 🤦♂️ i had a Laptop brought to me from uk and had battery replaced under warranty in Pattaya at samsung service centre on sukhumvit near lotus, but i think they moved it to pattaya klang for bkk see HERE to me it sounds like the shop just repaired the screen themselves, hence the offer of refund. -
if you think you may have any need for any more cables in future, you can buy the cable and connectors and crimpers and make yourself it is very easy to do, and is what i now do since wiring my new office i run a lot of LAN cables in the wall obviously you may buy a good bit more cable than you need, Glink CAT6 100m is like 400 baht iirc you can buy the shieled connectors cheap and can colour code the cables if doing this though be sure to buy the pass through connectors and crimpers for such as they are much easier than the old ones obviously doing this you can make the cable exactly the right length

Is plastic recycling a hoax made up by Big Oil?

Just to be clear, my decision to be off grid has absolutely nothing to do with environment or carbon footprint blah blah😉 -

Is plastic recycling a hoax made up by Big Oil?
patman30 replied to flyingtlger's topic in General Topics
put the reefer down and actually read what has been typed firstly you know nothing of me, so it is foolish to assume anything then you go on to tell me i use grid power, after i have already stated i am COMPLETEY OFF GRID if you want a conversation please do find the answers to these questions for yourself. what percent of the atmosphere is Co2? what percent of that is man made? At what level of Co2 does all life on earth die? What happens to the oxygen levels in the atmosphere when Co2 levels increase? how many KW is the average to charge an EV? what is the average household use in KW? if you know these then we can have a conversation now as to myself to address your dumb af comments my cars is used extremely little, it would make zero sense either side of the argument for myself to purchase a new car regardless of fuel we have extremely small amount of garbage, literally one bag a month, which is mainly nappies that are mostly agar agar (we use nappies night time only, daytime we use terrycloth) we do not burn any garbage or plastics which are toxic again i am not referring to general air pollution but the releasing of toxic chemicals to those around you in near proximity not to mention it is actually illegal to burn garbage now this does not matter to myself, but............. Now, i have shown you mine, you show me yours. -

patman30 replied to flyingtlger's topic in General Topics
This is the problem right here, thinking it is about what we are told it is about for my comments i am specifically referring to burning of plastics and the toxicity to those around you i do not care about "carbon footprint" as i understand how backwards this mentality is CO2 = life i do not live completely off grid and nearly self sufficient for any such reasons. don't be fooled by the nonsense that is put out in order to impose more tax and regulations and as far as EV drivers go.... there are reasons to buy an EV saving the environment is not one of them, and thinking you have the moral high ground because you drive one is just asinine -

i was more referring to toxicity to those around you if you can smell it then it is inside you i did forget to mention for you none of this is a worry as you drive an EV so when you are out on the road everybody will know there is a "good person" that is better than everyone else behind the wheel as i said there are other ways, we are right in the sticks and have no need to burn toxic plastics
