If it does, you have a problem. A better question would be "Does it make you feel entertained/informed and your opinions occasionally validated?" That's all you really want from an online, comment-based community.

I'm no expert, but I don't think anyone should really be getting covid vaccines anymore. They stopped being relevant a while ago, IMO. Maybe if you have some immunity issue?

I think mother nature already has that covered.

Yes, that is exactly what it is about. That's what vaccines do.

If vaccines don't stop viruses, how were they able to stop so many viruses?

I am. You're not.

Wrong. The vaccinations benefit mankind. They are safe and effective. You lying about it doesn't help anyone. If my kid died from a vaccine, I would be completely destroyed, but that wouldn't change the truth about vaccines.

He really learnt his lesson... 🙄

If you don't agree that viruses exist, and don't agree that vaccines prevent those viruses, there's not really much room for discussion. It's like if I were to say that we need the police because they protect us from criminals, but then you reply that you disagree because criminals don't exist and police don't protect us from them anyway. There's no discussion to be had.

Does the website do it automatically, or is there some guy with the bank website open asking for the OTP that the bank website requests?

50,000 pounds of what?

LOL. "I know for a fact that many high rise buildings in Bangkok have been weakened by the earthquake and are now unsafe." "How could you possibly know that high rise buildings are safe?" Have a think about what you are saying... 🙄

I'm pretty sure I do. If people don't vaccinate, more people die. If you don't know this simple fact, then it is you who has difficulty understand vaccines. https://www.who.int/news/item/24-04-2024-global-immunization-efforts-have-saved-at-least-154-million-lives-over-the-past-50-years

It seems entirely possible that the bouncers were trying to help the guy. The CCTV does seem to confirm this. The Brit seems to be having some sort of metal episode and the bouncers don't seem to be overly heavy handed. They could easily have pummelled the guy but appear to be trying to restrain him. It is, of course, possible that the bouncers could have caused his death whilst trying to restrain him. That is quite common with police. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excited_delirium https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positional_asphyxia It's unfortunate that this is being reported as: https://thethaiger.com/news/bangkok/british-tourist-beaten-to-death-by-bar-workers-in-bangkok-identified

Sounds like you don't understand how vaccines work. One child died, which is tragic, but if people didn't vaccinate, a lot more children would die. Your logic is extremely flawed.

I wonder if they had any reason for the weapons, or it was just pointless gang violence.

Doubt that it would be a dry run to test response. They generally set off the bomb shortly after leaving. And leaving an ID card would not be helpful. Even if the bag was stolen, it could still lead back to someone, as they might have CCTV of the bag being taken. Also, a dry run would make authorities more cautious, so the data obtained would be useless. Maybe a crazy mainlander who thought a shrine would be a good place to leave a bag for the day.

Sounds like he was violent and connected to crime. Probably too scared to leave.

I guess he thought he should take the stuff he bought her back.

And that's going to cost far more than a thousand Baht now.

Leaving to get a gun, then returning to the scene to kill someone because they punched you earlier, is not self-defence. He was angry because he was punched, so he killed the guy. Murder.

It's quite amazing the veery trivial things that Thais seem to commit murder over. No wonder they're so polite to each other.

While it's sometimes nice that Thais can be so accepting and forgiving, it does make you wonder...

Probably five pellets from a shotgun but they think bullet is the appropriate term to use.

If the law says that it is due to an earthquake simply taking place and causing the building to fall, and not that the design caused it to fall where it should have been able to withstand an earthquake, then it seems pretty clear.
