Hardly a personal attack. I was replying in kind to your patronising tone.
Again... subjective response... opinions are like <deleted>, everyone has one (Clint Eastwood). Try to challenge the idea or statement... not attack the person, as you'll get more respect if you do that.

Congratulations. As incoherent mutterings go that is near the top of the list.
You have just proved beyond reasonable doubt that you are just another in the long list of those who doesn't have the faintest idea what he thinks Brexit should look like.
Subjective topic.... haters going to hate. No need for personal attacks... stick to the topic.

What should Brexit look like? What deal (with the EU) could and should have been brokered?
You confused people would not like the real answer to that... hence why Reform UK is crushing it. If you are not Bristish, then I forgive your ignorance... but if you are from the UK, then you might as well vote for the Illiberal undemocrats with that opinion.

Not Brexit really as Brexit hasn't really being delivered due to spinless politicians. The reason the immies are all coming to the UK is because of the far-left policies and pull factors, which make it so easy for them, and that is not the case in most EU countries. The UK system prioritizes illegal immigrants over our own homeless and veterans etc., which is not just dumb but dangerous in the long run as people will eventually boil over, and we are starting to see signs of that already. The only way to stop the boats is to take away the pull factors and make it less attractive than other places... do a Denmark or Australia, that will work.
The clock is ticking for the UK government to do something meaningful about it or soon Farage will be PM... which might be a good wakeup call for the deluded and lost two traditional parties. Even the far-lefties like Unite union baron types are getting pi$$ed off with Labour, as no-one really knows what they stand for, same goes for the Tories (won't call them conservatives because they aren't).

Corbyn is a polarizing figure and will just split the lefty vote... go for it moron. The left at the moment is a collection of fools that only have in common that they hate the Tories... but don't realise there is a lot of difference between themselves.

Well, Hun Sen is guilty of being a Khmer Rouge district commander and should be in jail for his misdeeds.

Well OP, I'll give you the answer for many even if some think you are not a real poster. Have you never heard of the old adage "You can take a girl out of a bar but you can't take the bar out of a girl"? I guess there is a certain amount of time before that applies, and how long they need to work there before it's true, I don't know... anyone's guess is as good as mine.
However, bar girls are not just exposed to the cynical indifference of the customers, but also the harshness and oppression or the bar owners/police and other bar girls all fighting for the money etc.... a dark employment environment indeed that is not conducive to an optimistic outlook on life and will harden them up quick because it means survival.
Personally, if I ever go to bars (not so much these days), as I enjoy the environment sometimes and I don't bar fine them ever, then I still treat all the women really well, tip, and with humanity... as I know how things really work here in this field of employment for them.

Looks like yet another trolling anti-white westerner thread zeroing in on the US and Europe. No mention of scamming Chinese hoards or penniless Indians that camp on the beach at night instead of having a hotel room and bring electric rice cookers with batteries so the can cook outside... not even a mention of dodgy Russians evading the draft and trying anything and everything to stay, legally or not.
Nice try at trolling though, give you that... but ultimately a fail.

Bad idea to sell any of these countries jets used by Nato , as likely they/information will be passed on for reverse engineering to Beijing to gain favour. Luckily for the UK that India and Beijing hate eachother, otherwise its recently stranded F-35B that got stuck at an Indian airport would be a disaster waiting to happen... even though, wonder if anyone tried to get a good look at it, even the Indians.

Thailand has a hard job on this front, as the US is obviously rightly wary of Thailand's closeness to China and its usual fence sitting trying to play both sides. Also, Thailand slaps tariffs on every imported item, it varies wildly from product to product regarding how much, but clearly Thailand will have to accept reciprical tariffs at the very least... canit have it both ways. The real thing they have to convince the US of is the origin-washing/transshipping issue, as trust is minimal on this one and much sneakiness will be employed by the Chinese to get around it... probably with the help of ASEAN countries, hence why the tariffs will be higher here, just to make sure.

No point keep posting these scare stories as the the public's trust and respect for the WHO, big pharma, and the medical industry in general has seriously erroded in the last five years. For example, who listens to what the CCP stooge Ted Dross of the WHO says anymore?

A lot of foreign men move to Thailand at least partly because the only women that they have a chance of being with back home are women their own age. Why would you want to be with a bossy, nosy, difficult 65 or 70 year old woman, if you do not have to? No thanks. Life is too short for that.
There is absolutely some truth in that comment SM... even if other stuff caps it off.

Okay, the women are a big positive, but there's more to it than that. Many guys just want to leave their past behind and reinvent themselves or try to build an alternative or new life, try again... which I don't see why that is wrong, fair play.
There is also the stretching your money more in a place that is generally safe with a great climate that pretty much leaves you alone as long as you are not a Richard (although Thailand is becoming increasingly expsensive).
Also, many western countries are becoming increasingly, well, problematic to live in with all the immigration, sky-high taxes, lack of social cohesion etc., and quite frankly anti-older people sentiment... the young are slowly starting to dislike older people because they worked, saved, and control everything, with the kiddies wanting everything now without working for it.
I got out long ago as I saw the writing on the wall, but I totally agree with anyone who has had enough and wants to reinvent their life somewhere else like this... just have to realise that nowhere is perfect and Thailand has its caveats too, plus you need a mindset that has latitude and tolerance, but also a little suspicious as scams are everywhere. Horses for courses obviously, but the petty bureaucracy and anal paperwork is annoying as Thailand moves on a sea of paper and information, which is a big turn-off imo.

The UK needs to stop digging and put the spade down as the hole is getting too big to climb out of. You want diversity, well, good luck with all the intolerance and lack of intergration that brings... you reap what you sow and the UK is becoming a disfunctional benefits system country with a weak economy, that rewards uselessness and work-shy people at the expence of people who graft and save. That is a dangerous situation to be in, as the pushback will eventually be strong... or everyone useful will just flee/riot.
The far-left in Europe will facilitate the rise of their opposite as the rot will continue to go so far due to the liberal elite's failure to address problems people really care about, that a new generation plus the disillusioned will opt for the opposite instead, always like this... which is why the answers are to be found in the middle, not too hot and not too cold as the extrtemes on both sides only offer failure. You would have thought politicians and the public would have worked this out by now, instead of this mindset that everyone who came before them were stupid and we can get it right this time by doing the same thing... reminds me of Einstein's definition of Insanity.

The South Africa guy at 1255 days is an average effort on the overstay front.
Although, pretty noob job from the Myanmar dude at only 510 days.

Best way for the cops to send a message is to have a mobile square mechanical crushing machine that you find at scrap yards at a check point, and just cube errant vehicles on the side of the road strainght away along with letting racing boy walk home and explain it all to mummy.

Thailand, and a few other Asian countries, are the type of places that you just have do the "whatever" response, or you will end up nuts... a good anology is "It's like lying down in a stream and just letting the water flow over you". That doesn't mean you have to like everything or can't be critical, but it means you have to just let it go.... many people are wrapped far too tight for here, and probably too tight for where they came from for that matter, but had expectations it would be different.
One thing many people struggle with is unrealistic expectations and a difficulty to accept difference in culture... some can hack it, some can't. To have longevity here, you need open mindedness, tolerance, acceptance, willingness to learn and latitude on a whole bunch of stuff, and many people simply don't have that, as they are a product of the western self-centered "Me" culture and my rights etc. South East Asia is great for many, but not all, and it all depends on you and your mindset. However, nothing new here for those that have resided here a long time and endured.

Well, just the intolerance of the left... just remember how all far-left socialist governments end up in death, oppession, and famine throughout history... even existong ones are a mess (think Cuba/Venezuela etc.). There is no difference between the far-left and the far-right... Stalin's communist Russia killed even more than Hilter, and then you have Mao, who managed more than anyone ever. The answers are to be found in the middle... scientists call it "the Goldilocks zone", which is not too hot and not too cold, just right.

Musk is clearly super clever and successful... but with that comes caveats, same for all great inventors/artists/thinkers/boundry pushing types, and those caveats are often personal flaws, like ego/drunkeness/delusions of grandeur etc.
Musk, like many in the modern world, should stick to what they are good at and not fall into the trap of because you are good at one thing means you should be listened to on all topics. Another example of this is musicians that get political, people aren't interested in your politics, they like your music... so stand down, as most people find it irritating when someone who has no experience in something starts mouthing off or lectures everyone on something they are unqualified to do so. Yes, people on forums etc. give there opinion but that on a tiny scale, but these types use their platform they got for something else to spout off about something they know no more about than "Bob" down the pub. We don't ask nurses about soldiering or plumbers about gardening... we ask those who know about it. Muppets up their own backsides everywhere now.

How often do you hear song lyrics you consider profound?
in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Posted
I'm a fan of the lyrics in Hendrix songs... very relevant, even now. However, many kids and old people are lost... although, the Eagle's song like "Hotel California" is a good example of the EU and other institutions now etc. haha.
