A top to bottom fundamental change within Thai society and culture, which isn't going to happen any time soon.

Shouldn't be too hard to check some CCTV and find out which officer has been borrowing the truck, if they wanted to look into it.

Pay it forward?

Could you imagine if malls were held accountable? There seem to be rats everywhere and I can't imagine how much would need to be changed to keep them out. I don't think many places could still trade, especially the outdoor kind.

Great bit of pointing by the ladyboy. Clearly a good sport.

You wouldn't be bothered if someone stole £260 from you and wouldn't pursue it further?

Possibly people were slightly confused by the idea of lightning starting fires during heavy rain storms, when everything is extremely wet. I'm not denying it could happen, it just seems a little unlikely or unusual. Is it electrical fires in buildings? (It also could have been the three ideas kind of smushed into one paragraph.)

Buddhism "Thai style".

The behaviour of many Thais who regularly make the news would suggest this is untrue. Some Thais talk about military conscription like some sort of sexual or physical abuse that they suffered which left them permanently traumatised.

It seems that you're fighting a losing battle here. People don't even appear to be fully reading what you're posting.

It's not all Brits, of course. But there is a sizeable demographic of young British men who like to go out and get wa*kered then re-enact Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. Perhaps they share some DNA with the Australians? There were a few sent over there at some point.

In my experience, Brits are wound fairly tightly. It's a very classist and hierarchical culture. It's also, I feel, centred around humiliation and looking down on people. A lot of bullying and teasing going on that lasts well into adulthood. As in, actual adults worry about being teased or what people will think of them in various ways. There's also a lot of what I guess could be classified as toxic masculinity (I mean real toxic masculinity, like around drinking, fighting and f*cking). Guys are very excited to get as drunk as possible and then act like someone out of a London gangster movie. Night times in towns where people are drinking is kind of like a dystopian purge night situation. People behave in ways that they would never dream of while sober and in the daytime. Many Brits need to get drunk to do things like dancing, talking to strangers or singing Karaoke. Search for "Booze Britain" on YouTube.

I suppose the easy answer is that these procedures aren't necessary and in reality they are being used to control the people of Thailand. (Also there's the fact that whatever your subjective opinion, Thai people are being controlled where any restrictions are put in place. The question is more about motive.) The inclusion of covid anti-measures to protect people from the flu should be enough of a red flag to indicate this is bullsh*t. Again, it comes down to balancing the cost you pay for what protection you get. I can't imagine it is in any way worth keeping covid restrictions in place for "other respiratory diseases", otherwise you're moving into kids following covid restriction for the rest of time to prevent the flu. I'm not sure how that is not viewed as dangerously insane. Obviously you're entitled to believe that school children should be following covid restrictions forever, but many people are ready to see an end of it, not least of all the kids. It isn't good for their mental health. As covid becomes the same as any other flu, it's time to forget about covid, not start adding other flus to the justification for masks and social distancing at school forever.

I do feel sorry for people like this. I guess they feel like they need to claim Black ownership of famous names from history due to feelings of inferiority. It's like the episode of Fresh Prince of Bel Air where Will pretends he is descended from African royalty because he cannot deal with the fact that he cannot find any record of his ancestors prior to slavery. It must really suck to feel like this, but I don't think claiming people were Black is the right way to deal with it.

We can get the required clothing at Lotus's or Makro, or other private shops. They do not need the school name on them. Name tags we got in a roll of 50 and sew on ourselves. Yes, two pair of shoes needed here. You can also get names and logos embroidered on at various places.

But then you miss out on the many benefits of school uniforms. It doesn't sound like the outlay is a lot, and regular clothes would probably cost more anyway. The bigger issue is schools that make parents buy from them, probably with a little bit extra added on to the price for themselves.

The fewer reasons for checking your phone, the better.

Doesn't this mean that they shouldn't have had addresses put on them but they did as the result of a mistake? I think they mean "incorrectly addressed".

I think a few people here would actually quite like it if the Move Forward Party won.

Wow. You sound super racist. You have no idea if the people you're engaging with are any of those things, and that doesn't actually affect whether they're factually right about what China is doing.

"China can do no wrong, but if they do do anything wrong, its actually the fault of the people they're exploiting." You're a hoot, man.

This sounds like a bad joke. It's a terrible indictment on the Thai education system that they think people will believe this. Much like saying the B300 tourist tax will go to maintain tourist attractions or help foreign tourists in need. I assume they saw an opportunity to get rich easily.

I wonder how many buildings are planned to be at only 49% occupancy... ????

Any chance it could have been one time if you had paid sinsod?

They stopped the shooter?
