  1. This is a disaster for Portugal. Invaded by rich legal immigrants? With eggs at roughly $3.20, Portugal needs a leader who is able to handle the problem.
  2. Well, who is this mysterious contractor? Maybe when it comes to building the nuclear power plant they keep discussing, this company will get the job.
  3. I feel so confident that Alex Berenson is the guy who tells it like it is. "People started getting sick in Wuhan in December 2019. Or was it November? Maybe even October?" Yeah this is how to tell facts.
  4. America must stop calling itself the world's policeman and the greatest country (27th in the world for education, for instance). That will shut people up.
  5. Americans have the right to protest. Burning Teslas is not the way.
  6. This thing about executing children - not considered old enough to drink beer but considered an adult for their lack of adult self control?
  7. Cancelling planes is serious for any country that makes a lot of income from military equipment. If other countries drop orders for a broader range of military equipment this could become worrying. After all, eggs are not a large portion of the export economy.
  8. I am not sure you can hate someone for what they write anonymously on AN. Once you understand they have no real life and expouse their venom here as an escape from their unhappy lives then it becomes easier to let go, block them and get on with life
  9. Capitalism is about competing efficiently. American products can't compete with countries with lower labor costs.
  10. Perhaps Rubio could next look at a certain country that keeps people in an offshore prison where they have not been charged, have no Constitutional rights; no right to trial, no right to a lawyer. Then talk about human rights.
  11. She doesn't know who attacked her. The two males haven't confessed. Now everyone needs to wait for the DNA results before blaming anyone.
  12. Any country that is so involved in foreign trade will find you cannot eat AI.
  13. Agreed. Thailand does not understand human rights.
  14. If Greenland does become independent, they may choose to join NATO, which would oppose invasion by an enemy. Greenland has free healthcare, free education. What invader could offer that?
  15. They could just say, "The well-known criminal," or that former fugitive and businessman."
  16. Sad. Died alone and then it rained.
  17. Thai men get too emotional sometimes. So what if she had a tomboy friend?
  18. I wish the reporter had got the other side of the argument. Cabinet decision or not, why do airlines want to use foreign pilots on domestic routes? Better trained, more disciplined or what? Is there a shortage of pilots?
  19. I don't get why Chinese would leave the motherland and the wonderous leadership of the Communist Party and Father Xi. Surely Thailand is less preferable compared to China?
  20. I do hope Thais believe in vaccines. I got bitten by a dog once, the local clinic advised buying vaccine from Chulalongkorn Hospital and bringing it back for the clinic to inject it at the right periods. Saved money and not dead.
  21. I wouldn't be surprised if he was drunk but don't want to jump to the wrong conclusion.
  22. Edward II got his end with a hot poker in his end. Alas, young actors may fear they will get fewer parts playing heterosexual leads.
  23. Wayne County and the Electric Chairs were founded in 1977 so that the lead singer could make money to transition from Wayne to Jayne. They were quite shocking. Hit single "If You Don't Wanna <deleted> me baby, Baby <deleted> off." Today's generation are pussies.
  24. I can imagine him panicking when the cops arrived. Every criminal in prison thought they would get away with it.
  25. While I have been using the same plastic bag for at least five years, I still get surprised when anyone says that 7-Eleven gives free plastic bags away. 7-11 does not manufacture plastic bags. The plastic bags for 7-Eleven are manufactured by Naraipak, a major plastic bag producer in Thailand. So why do people think the bags are free? Because they don't notice the price is added to the goods that 7-Eleven sells. Interestingly, when they went through a phase of not handing out bags, the price of their products did not go down accordingly.
