Yeah. People with authority told a group making noise to stop, they started a fight, and ended up worse off. Now they want to complain. They should have done as asked and not stated a fight. Hopefully the chap who intervened has leaned his lesson. It sounded like the article was going to be a groups of sailors beating someone up for asking them to keep it down.

It's amazing how often you end up with slow moving traffic and merging in the "racing lane". Turning right, making a U-turn, merging from a U-turn, all see people going slow in a lane where people are whizzing along as fast as they can go.

It's funny she should mention "If I was a left-wing activist..." as people really don't like this sh*t coming from politicians, while we expect if from loony-left types. It's not a good way to earn respect.

I don't think that's possible, according to her previous statements.

Unfortunately people becoming "professional activists", as they see it as a way to make a living. They travel around repeating the same garbage far-left talking points that the people they're talking to all already know and agree with. That's why they end up saying this kind of thing, because people cheer and applaud it. I thought she was interested in the environment! What happened to that? People started to lose interest?

Click on your profile picture at the top left of the screen to go to your profile, scroll down a little and you should see "account settings" towards the right hand side - click that, look over to the right on the next screen and you will see "other settings", under that click "ignored users", on the next screen type the user's name into the "Add new user to ignore list" box and it should come up with options for what you want to block. It doesn't block posts, unfortunately, so if they regularly post, you will still see the titles.

Or he may have spent his life trying to be healthy.

I'm closer to 70 than 60, just started a new job, teaching science to 'annoying children' 🙂 I really can't imagine retiring. I think the user you are replying to was referring to children of your own living under your roof, whom you cannot say goodbye to when the bell goes.

How does one brace for events of political or social interest and importance happening in the world at the present time?

Shouldn't they just look at the overall affect it has had on the economy? Either it has boosted the economy, or it hasn't.

They're not, hence the birth rate decline.

I think he means, why do people want to do something about porn but not do anything about the danger on the roads, if they're so bothered about the image of Thailand globally?

Nah, you're not comparing like for like. You have to look at the level of food for each place to make a proper comparison. Western food is more expensive in Thailand, as Thai food is more expensive in the West. The OP shows some pretty mediocre Western food, so it isn't really high quality. To compare it to Western food in Thailand is not reasonable. "Thailand isn't cheap if you want to live exactly as you do in a Western country" is kind of meaningless as a claim.

How does it restart the heart?

But it is sadly very attractive to some people. What can someone do when they only find bad people attractive and good people boring?

A very weird situation. Coups are technically bad, but they got rid of Thaksin and Yingluck. Coups are a threat to democracy, but also the elected government can seem that way as well. 🤔

I think the important thing is to have something to live for, something that makes you happy and feel good. It seems like a lot of people who enjoy their youth, drinking and sleeping around, have nothing left when they get old. It's as though everything that brought them joy in life, that made them feel that they were them, related to their body and kind of ran out when they got too old.

But potatoes and steak aren't as easily found in Thailand, so you aren't really comparing like for like, in terms of whether one place is cheaper than the other. How much is Thai food in Spain?

More like, they're busy, they don't want to discipline their kids, and they tend to view safety and responsibility as fairly low priority as much has to do with "fate".

To be fair, apart from tourism money, most Thais don't want any foreigners in Thailand.

Is that how CPR works? It restarts dead people's hearts?

It's the Thai "hands-off" parenting technique.

I bet the mood changed real quick for the pursuers. Suddenly the hunters became the hunted. Idiots.

and should we do the same for people that drink Alcohol? what about people that drink too much soda or eat too many snacks and get overweight. Should we hold medial care from them too? Yes! And if they hurt themselves in a way that could be foreseen, too! Motorcycles, fasts cars, sports, etc. No insurance for them either. That should get premiums down.
