Foreign Tourist Sparks Outrage by Urinating in Phuket Airport
Purdey replied to Georgealbert's topic in Phuket News
I have always found toilets that are well-signed in all airports. As a diabetic with an enlarged prostate, getting to a toilet is always high on my agenda when traveling. Admittedly, some are quite a distance from the airplane when arriving. Maybe this urinator was unable to find one in time, but I would still be surprised. He could be fined for this public display, but it wouldn't be that much. Accidentally on purpose make him miss his flight is a better idea. -
Thailand cracks down on fake visa holders: Pakistanis face blacklist
Purdey replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
The Thais want visitors to come and spend money, so I don't get why fake documents are used. All are welcome. My Indian friends are laughing. -

Maybe borrow some of California's water bombing planes or buy some so they just fly over the flaming fields and boom, drenched. -
Ancient Asteroid Bennu Holds the Building Blocks of Life, NASA Confirms
Purdey replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Worth investigating its parent planet for people. Then our military can go there and claim it. Maybe wipe out the native people too. Isn't that what we do? -

It is about time countries banned contributions from third parties to just $25,000 each. -
Tucker Carlson Alleges Biden Administration Plotted to ‘Kill Putin’

The words the forum uses to describe Putin here normally imply most would be glad had Bident succeeded. -

Sad, but I wanted to be the first person to say... Black Hawk down! There, got it out of my system. -

Why Democrats Hold the Advantage for 2028 and Beyond
Purdey replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Your comment, while appreciated, didn't address the post, which doesn't mention Putin etc., etc. It is about what may be a legal method of giving a US president a third term. -
Why Democrats Hold the Advantage for 2028 and Beyond
Purdey replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Trump may extend to another term by standing as Vice President with a stooge winning the election as President. Then the stooge, for instance Vance, says he can no longer perform his duties and stands down, thus allowing the Vice President to assume office - without an election. The 22nd Amendment only requires that someone not be elected to the Presidency more than twice. https://theconversation.com/how-trump-could-try-to-stay-in-power-after-his-second-term-ends-246722 https://cornerstonelaw.us/22nd-amendment-doesnt-say-think-says/ -
Gender recognition bill considered for identity self-determination
Purdey replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
All people are female at conception. -
All this verbal red tape doesn't come out of the blue and is just a red herring to disguise the black sheep among the racist boys in blue, many of whom were caught red handed in text messages. They have been yellow carded often enough, so it isn't a gray area. Brown nosing people of color it is not. I would not blackball the use of color in idiomatic English as it is a golden opportunity to teach idiomatic language to immigrants.

Operation Dragon Slayer: Police Raids Target Chinese Crime-Linked Villas
Purdey replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Setting aside the usual racism about the Chinese, there is a case for investigating criminals of all nationalities. However, as the local plod cannot be entrusted to track foreign criminals, perhaps AI could be brought in to find the links between length of stay versus length of visas issued and names of those wanted on charges in other countries. -
Phuket to use AI for traffic congestion relief amid road projects
Purdey replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
These things take time. When the BMA tried to introduce computer managed traffic lights in Bangkok one policemen was so upset when the traffic worsened, he got an axe and chopped the wires in the control box. Apparently, it is supposed to take time to figure out the best sequence but that does have a negative effect. Just tell the authorities that it will make Thailand look like Singapore and they might go for it. -
I can't wait to see the look on the faces of the people in the impoverished Southern States when the find out that the people in Greenland get the right to have universal healthcare and free education while they go bankrupt paying insurance companies. There will be a stampede.

Just thinking that if I were a South American leader I would first give permission for the flights, then take it away mid-flight so there is a lot of wasted fuel and expenses. Then I would ban military flights as the cost is hidden from the public and demand commercial flights, where the cost is more transparent and the American pubic would find out how much they are spending on the flights. Then when an agreement was made, check the visa status of all flight crew on landing illegally. Bwaahaha Of course, that would never happen.
