Security beefed up for APEC with Putin participating
Mark1066 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
What makes you think NATO has any interest in siting nuclear missiles in Ukraine? If they wanted them right next door to Russia, they’ve had 18 years to put them in Estonia but they don’t want to. And since when do ‘special military operations’ involve murdering and raping the local population. Are you getting paid to write this drivel? ‘The rhetoric of hatred is exactly what creates the conditions of war’...you mean like claiming Ukraine is stuffed full of nazis to justify invading? -

Blimey I didn’t know we had Neville Chamberlain on the forum. You need to study your history if you think diplomacy and dialogue stops wars. It might do with rational people but it didn’t work with Hitler in 1939 and it hasn’t worked with Putin since 2014. As for mutually beneficial trade, where do you think Russia gets the money for the weapons it’s using to kill Ukrainian women and children? I can honestly say I’ve never seen a more misguided post than yours. -
Thailand building up problems .UK make it class A drug

Yeah there was always good stuff around if you were in the right (wrong?) places but a lot of it was rubbish. Or so I heard anyway. (First time I've heard the expression pub grub lol. Sounds the same as what was sold on most council estates) -

I've found eBay to be one of the worst online selling platforms. They absolutely refuse to admit when they have made a mistake and after a few messages back and forth they will simply claim they have already answered your question and refuse to continue the discussion. The most ridiculous case I had was when they blocked me from bidding on a vinyl record and claimed it was probably an import ban in Thailand. When I pointed out that I'd bought and received 7 records that year on eBay, they suggested that perhaps Thai customs had a limit on the number of records you could import in a year!!! The decent and right thing to do would have been to admit their mistake, apologise and put it right. But it seems they think they are above that sort of thing.

If he has a receipt it could possibly work but I think it needs to be arranged in advance.

The biggest problem with most of the cocaine being sold in the UK is that it's been cut so much, you'd be better off snorting washing powder. -
I haven't tried from that vendor but I have tried Wedding Cake, Strawberry Gorilla and Tangie 4 (maybe not quite the same?) from vendors in CM. The Wedding Cake was good - strong - the Strawberry Gorilla was rubbish and the Tangie 4 was surprisingly nice. But that's probably useless information for you because it's from different suppliers. I mean, I've had Gorilla Glue that was really good from one source and total rubbish from another (so bad I am sure it was CBD bud being sold as high THC).

I don't live in a gated community (can't stand them to be honest) but I wouldn't say I live in a village either, unless you're strictly translating the term Moo Bahn as village. I live in the Amphur Muang, a few kilometres from the moat and pay about 60 baht a month. I think it used to be a gated community when it was built actually but that was about 20 years ago and it certainly isn't now.

It's really pointless to engage in an argument with someone who's so juvenile. There may be more than one race here (obviously) but it's a far more homogenous society than wherever you came from. It's offensive to claim that all Thais can't read maps - you can argue that it's not until you're blue in the face but that doesn't change the facts. Your comment on education may have some merit but if the education system in the West is so superior, why are so many of the expats I meet here just a step away from poverty? You'd think they'd have made more of a success of things with the fantastic education they received.

I ordered 100 grams of Thai Stick from a vendor for 799 baht. It was bud, not brick so I can't see why anybody would pay 3k for 100 grams of brick. He also sells compressed brick at 1,500 Baht per kilo. I don't know what that's like as I've not tried it but the bud certainly does the job. It's obviously not as well trimmed as the top shelf stuff that's grown indoors and it's a little 'agricultural' in comparison but it does the job. I'd estimate I need to smoke maybe 2 or 3 times as much of it compared to something like monster cookies, in order to achieve a similar high. But it's 100 times cheaper.

Not one single respectable academic refutes the existence of Jesus as a historical figure. Whether one believes he was the son of God is a different matter but anybody that suggests he never existed, loses all credibility.

What really speaks volumes about you is your misuse and misunderstanding of your native language, along with the fact that you resort to personal attacks when you are called out on your lack of education - a sad reflection on your own priorities I guess. Here's (the salient part of) a dictionary definition: "the belief that different races possess distinct characteristics, abilities, or qualities, especially so as to distinguish them as inferior or superior to one another." In this case, you believe a whole race of people have inferior map reading skills. Is that clear enough for you?

If you’d ever actually read the Bible you would know that, according to the Gospels, Jesus said the most important commandments were: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind…the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

Stating that an entire race of people can’t read maps isn’t racist? I don’t think you understand the meaning of the word - generalising by race is exactly what racism is. If I announced that black people cant do maths and then claimed I wasn’t being racist, I wonder how many people would give me a free pass on that? Also, if Western education truly focuses on the outside word more than Thai education, why are so many Americans incapable of pointing out where various extremely well-known countries are on an atlas?

Just to give a balanced view: The last time I rented a house in CM, my 2-year-old daughter poked holes in the insect screens. Landlord didn't seem to have noticed so I mentioned it to him and he still returned our full deposit. Not saying you aren't right about most landlords here but thought it should be mentioned that some are very nice.

Thanks for the links but those products aren't there any more. I think it's a waste of time posting Shopee links - I found several one day, bookmarked them and when I went to order an hour or two later, they'd disappeared. Re. my last statement: What I meant was I spent so much time trying different strains here and there that I ended up smoking way too much, every day. Eventually, I began to wonder why I even wanted to get high in the first place. It wasn't really a comment meant for serious discussion.
