  1. I thought it might contain some sort of reference to that, or perhaps someone having their arm in a sling. As it is, I can't see any reason to include it in the title. It doesn't work as a pun unless their is some sort of double meaning.
  2. You don't feel you have knowledge or ways of doing things from back home that would benefit Thai people to learn?
  3. How does "Singapore-sling" factor into this?
  4. From the news story: the Buriram EOD team identified the object as a BDU-33 aerial bomb Indeed. It looks a lot more like what it is.
  5. I guess not avoidable when travelling along windy country lanes at high speed.
  6. This from the Prime Minister who has missed all of the sessions of parliament since he took office.
  7. Could be a factor. You can die of alcohol poisoning a little while after you finish drinking.
  8. I wonder how many of these helmets will actually be worn? And how long his affection lasts... 🤔
  9. It's a troll account. I'm not sure why anyone bothers to respond.
  10. Who says he yelled and sneered? Why make things up just to blame the victim?
  11. Where would they keep them all???
  12. True, but the helmets are mostly like plastic baseball caps.
  13. Progress isn't good if it brings something bad. There's no need to make rushed or knee jerk progress. You also have to think very carefully about what people say when they claim to want to make things better. Often they are lying to simply get what they want. Conservatism, mixed with very cautious and limited openness to progression is definitely a virtue. Progression for progression's sake is foolish to the extreme. If a mad or evil leftist says they want to bring a change that benefits them, then lies about it to make it sound like it is desperately needed, a conservative who is ready to point out that they are lying and stop them is protecting the people and is a very positive thing.
  14. Based on the percentage of people who are monks in Thailand, are they overrepresented when it comes to crime?
  15. Word Salad Harris could have gone on Joe Rogan. Trump didn't have any kind of monopoly there. She didn't, because she knew how awful it would make her look, as she had no real policies, zero charisma, could only read from scripts prepared for her by others, and didn't stand up to any kind of scrutiny.
  16. AI doesn't quite comprehend the nuance of the pun.
  17. Did all the right things, and got nothing but hassle from his drug addict stepbrother... Pushed to his limits. I hope they take this all into consideration and go easy on him.
  18. Wormholes... 🤷‍♂️
  19. In case anyone else doesn't know what a gaur is:
  20. As I said, no idea what you're talking about. You're lying. 🙄
  21. If you can afford it and it makes you happy, not stupid. If you cannot afford it or it has a negative impact on your lifestyle, maybe stupid. If you're in serious financial difficulties or failing to meet financial responsibilities, stupid.
  22. It allows those that need it to maximise their ability to look down on someone. Note that "tattooed, idiot, tourist" contains three adjectives used to denote inferiority to the user. Tattooed: tattoos are bad, the user doesn't have tattoos so is better. Idiot: being an idiot is bad, the views himself as not being an idiot, so is better. Tourist: being a tourist is bad because the user has a long-term visa and knows Thailand better, so is better.
  23. I don't see how that will help you to prove that you aren't a liar.
