swerving proudly left to right like professional racers do to warm their tires with hair blowing in the wind. look at me! i'm motoci a hero

they opened police stations in canada... the gvt says they were shut down. not sure about that. the chinese are going nuts about foreign intervention, even news reporting on taiwan, yet they dare police in other countries? https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/alleged-chinese-police-stations-still-open-1.6828345

had immi visit today. i knew the guy that came from the office. super friendly guy whose english is also good. took about 10 photos of wife, himself, witness and me. absolutely unintrusive visit. sympathetic immi officer. hope he doesnt get shuffled around

you know you are a sycophant when you kowtow and tell your journalists what they can and cannot cover. emperor xi spreading his wings, i guess

Mom trying to push off her irresponsibility on someone/something else...

dude, you have a stuck up attitude and you are turning this into a personal attack against me. you are pulling at threads with unsubstantiated statements about me. people who do what you are doing are what is wrong in the world today. i give my opinion. take it or leave it. if you cant take it go find somewhere else to troll. you act like a high so...i really doubt you are. crawl back where you come from you think making overgeneralizations is bad? you turn right around and do what you accuse me of. nowhere have i said foreigners have better taste. i made my argument about thais' taste habits 1-2 days ago. go read before you troll. dont like my opinion? too bad. show me where i said that foreigners have better taste, otherwise clamp it and go bark up another tree. all you are doing now is harrassing... otherwise known as trolling

not quite... that is kind of a moral judgement based on nothing to back up your claim about me personally. unfortunately many people took my generalization to heart. been here a long time and have met all kinds or thais having worked in posh schools all the way to gvt schools. you might, or might not agree with me on this, but whenever meeting a thai for the first time, one of the first topics that flare up is the beer one drinks. of all the swill around, i drink leo. fact is i have given up vices such as drinking and smoking due to health issues. and, when asking what they drink, generally thais respond in kind by saying they either like leo or chang. i do not go out so i cannot say anything about HOPS in pattaya or anywhere else as a matter of fact. but this is not representative of the masses here you are giving an example for 1 place... maybe there are quite a few more, but it doesn't matter. the undeniable fact is that the average thai does look at the price of what they drink and will usually choose what is cheapest. hence, the popularity of lao khao... that poisonous whiskey. You only know the impoverished peasants, as most do here. your comment seems awfully pretentious. are you speaking through your hat here? your comment knda reminds me of homer simpson when he was seeing through pink glasses. you think of yourself as high so when you are actually just another keyboard warrior judging his peers. dont let the door hit you on the way out...

I'm kinda dumb in that kind of thing... will certainly need help from the more enlightened...

jesus... this gvt will surely put the last nail in the coffin for this country. only ones who wont be entitled to anything will be the FALANG. come to think of it... we will be entitled to taxation without representation.

not too long ago they werent coming because of a scary movie, next it was the shootong in bkk... now there is a chinese visitor surge?

2-3 years ago they did a uniform overhaul... are they just adding this vest thing to get people talking again? i dont like police but i have to say the thai uniform is one of the ugliest i have ever seen

another one who starts an op with an open question but does not say what he thinks worst than that... i just checked profile seems this is all this person does...

this guy suspended me also for posting a picture i too in the thai cultural museum (forgot the exact name). the picture was about the marechal who was in power during ww2. i was blocked for lese majeste... the pic had nothing to do with thai royalty and it was from a thai museum both in english and thai... i gotta say i am glad things are changing and i am glad to see the back of some of the mods. charlie seems a cool dude, sheryl and crossy too... scott was pretty good and fair too

george for president 2024

i cant believe you got confused emojis after such an honest and heartfelt post. george... i got banned for giving a confused emoji to one of the moderators once or twice... what is the take on that?

... but no one will have them

isnt that old news that was addressed about 3 years or so ago? nice to see that once the laws have been enforced they stay in effect

imagine that-they realised they might be encouraging an economy they say doesnt exist in thailand --> prostitution

he doesnt look too happy in the picture. where there is smoke, usually, there is fire

your mixing apples and oranges. calm down and get back to me when you sort your thoughts.

do they really believe people will come here because of a visa exemption? that is but a drop in the bucket when factoring the costs of coming here

no need to get so emotional about this. but i dont get...' have this problem not at all' what do you mean? oh, btw you disagree with me, and that is fine. but in over 20 years teaching here every year i ask kids 'what is your favorite food?' 99.99% all answer the same thing. 'I like spicy' and judging by the amount of umami and chili pepper they put in their food i stand by my comment that thais do not have a very fine palate. now... dont get over emotional about my reply... this is just a blog

its popularity will depend on mostly 1 thing... the price. thais dont have the finesse, nor the palate to distinguish and enjoy a good beer

we still don't know. ask bangkok barry seems he knows but don't want to tell

a thai general thinks he has enough clout to organize a ceasefire???? what a presumptuous maroon
